Lenticrispr v2 blast vector

Manufactured by Addgene

The LentiCRISPR v2-Blast vector is a plasmid designed for CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing. It contains the Cas9 gene and a blasticidin resistance gene, allowing for selection of transduced cells. The vector can be used to express single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) for targeted gene knockout or modification experiments.

Molecular Cloning for Genetic Manipulation

shRNAs were cloned into the pHIV7-GFP lentiviral vector. sgRNAs were cloned into lentiCRISPR v2 vector (Addgene plasmid # 52961) or lentiCRISPR v2-Blast vector (Addgene plasmid # 83480). The sequences for shRNAs and sgRNAs were listed in Supplemental table 11. The WT or mutant PUS7 (D256A)47 was cloned into the CSC lentiviral vector. The reporter plasmids were prepared by inserting 6 x CGG or 6 x CGA sequences before the firefly luciferase coding region in the pmirGlo luciferase expression vector (Promega) to obtain the 6 x Arg (CGG) or the 6 x Arg (CGA) reporter plasmid. The TYK2 fragment plasmids were cloned by replacing the eGFP sequences in the pLENTI-DDK-puro-eGFP vector (Addgene plasmid #123299) with the WT or mutant TYK2 fragment (aa 100- aa 264).

CRISPR Lentiviral Cloning Workflow

sgRNAs were cloned into the lentiCRISPR v2-Blast vector (Addgene #83480). Three sgRNAs per gene were designed. For BRCA2 exon 11 was targeted and for ARID1A exon 1 was targeted within a 250 bp region (key resources table). sgRNAs were cloned into the vector using BsmBI digest. Lentiviral particles were produced by transient transfection of HEK293T cells with sgRNA vectors along with the packing constructs PAX2 and VSV-G. Virus-containing supernatants were harvested on Day 4-5 after transfection and passed through a 0.45um filter. Viral supernatant was ultra-centrifuged at 10’500 rpm for 2 h and afterward stored at −80°C.

Optimizing CRISPR/Cas9 Plasmid Systems

We utilized the pX330-U6-Chimeric_BB-CBh-hSpCas9 plasmid, obtained from Feng Zhang (Addgene #42230), as the basis for constructing CRISPR/Cas vectors. To generate the mAID donor plasmids, we modified constructs of the Kanemaki lab (Addgene #72827 and #121180). In order to incorporate mRuby2, we replaced mCherry2 in the donor plasmid (Addgene #121180).
For the rescue experiments, wild-type (WT) UHRF1 and each of the point mutants (M8R/F46V, Y188A, DAEA, G448D, and H741A) were cloned into pLenti6.2/V5-DEST (invitrogen). Likewise, WT DNMT1 and each of the point mutants (H170V, D381A/E382A/S392A, W464A/W465A, C1226W) were cloned into pSBbi-Bla (Addgene: #60526). To target DNMT3A and DNMT3B, we cloned the oligonucleotide sequences for gRNA into the lentiCRISPR v2-Blast vector (Addgene #83480). Additionally, we cloned the shRNA targeting TET2 into the pLKO.1-blast vector (Addgene #26655). Plasmids were generated using PCR, restriction enzymes, or Gibson Assembly Cloning techniques. All plasmids underwent sequencing prior to their utilization. The oligonucleotide sequences inserted into the lentiCRISPR v2-Blast vector and pLKO.1-blast vector are available in Supplementary Table 1.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
