CRISPR-based Gene Knockout in Mouse and Human Cell Lines

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Using the web interface of UCSC Genome Browser’s CRISPR design software (https://genome.ucsc.edu/), multiple small guide RNAs (gRNAs) targeting either exon 1 of mouse Jarid2 or Ezh2 genes, or exon 3 of mouse or human Jarid2/JARID2 genes were designed. Off-target activity of these gRNAs were further evaluated with Blastn (https://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi). Two complementary oligos were designed to generate double stranded gRNA with flanking BsmBI restriction sites. The sequences of the gRNAs used in this study are listed in Key Resources Table. These oligos were self-annealed and cloned into BsmBI digested LRB plasmid (Lenti_sgRNA_EFS_BFP). This is a modified version of Lenti_sgRNA_EFS_GFP (Addgene #65656), where GFP was replaced by blue fluorescent protein (BFP). 32D or HEL cells stably expressing Cas9 in which the expression of Cas9 is linked to GFP via an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) were transduced with lentiviruses to express either mouse or human gRNAs, respectively. 48 hr post-transduction, stable cell lines expressing both Cas9 and gRNA were established by sorting GFP+BFP+ cells by FACS. Upon expansion of these cells, western blot was performed to validate successful inactivation of the target gene.

Quantifying Cellular Fitness Changes

KBM7 cells constitutively expressing Cas9_Blast (Addgene #52962) were transduced with lentivirus expressing sgRNAs against VHL, GAPDH, RPL5 or in the gene desert of MYC in the GFP vector LRG (Lenti_sgRNA_EFS_GFP) (Addgene #65656, see Supplementary Table 4). GFP-expressing cells were mixed with GFP-negative cells at a 1:1 ratio. The mixed populations were grown for 21 days, and monitored by flow cytometry in 7-day intervals. Data was analyzed with FlowJo (gating strategy see Supplementary Figure 3) and percentages of the respective GFP populations were normalized to day 0.

CRISPR-Mediated Deletion of Retroviral LTRs

For CRISPR/Cas9 deletion of LTRs, sgRNA oligonucleotides (Integrated DNA Technologies) were designed to target upstream and downstream of the LTRs of interest, using Benchling (https://benchling.com) and annealed. Either the upstream or the downstream guide was cloned into plasmid LRG (Lenti_sgRNA_EFS_GFP; deposited by C. Vakoc (Addgene 65656), which expresses GFP. The other guide was cloned into lentiCRISPR v2, deposited by F. Zhang (Addgene 52961). Clones were verified by Sanger sequencing (Source Bioscience). Guide sequences are listed in Supplementary Table 6.

CRISPR-Mediated Silencing of IRF1 Enhancer

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The single guide (sg) RNAs were designed for IRF1 target regions using CHOPCHOP (http://chopchop.cbu.uib.no). A human genome non-targeting gRNA was used as a negative control. Synthesized oligonucleotides (Integrated DNA Technologies) were annealed and cloned into the Esp3I restriction sites of lentiviral expression vector Lenti_sgRNA_EFS_GFP (Addgene plasmid # 65656 (38 (link))). Sanger sequencing confirmed sgRNAs insertion. The gRNA target sequences are non-targeting, 5’-GTTCCGCGTTACATAACTTA-3’, and IRF1 enhancer targeting, 5’- TCGGCGCGCAGGCACTCAGA-3’.
Lentivirus was produced in HEK293FT cells used to transduce target cells in the presence of 4 µg/mL polybrene (Sigma). For IRF1 Enhancer silencing, hSAECs were first transduced with the lentiviral vector pHR-SFFV-KRAB-dCas9-P2A-mCherry (Addgene plasmid # 60954 (38 (link))). The vector expresses a fusion protein of mammalian codon-optimized Streptococcus pyogenes dCas9 (DNA 2.0) fused at the N terminus with the Kox1 KRAB domain and two SV40 nuclear localization sequences at the C terminus. mCherry-expressing hSAECs were transduced with the lentiviral sgRNA expression vector. Two days later, the dual mCherry and GFP-expressing cells were sorted and cultured for RSV infection experiments.

sgRNAs targeting the regions encompassing transcription start site (+/− 200 relative to TSS) of ZNF204P was designed using CHOPCHOP v3 (35 (link)). The top and bottom strands of each targeting oligonucleotides were phosphorylated and annealed in thermocycler under settings: 37°C for 30 minutes, 95°C for 5 minutes, with ramping down to 25°C at a rate of 5°C/min. sgRNA sequences are included in Supplementary Table 1. Lenti_sgRNA_EFS_GFP (Addgene, #65656) vector (LRG) was digested with BsmBI (NEB) at 55°C for 1 hour, and subsequently annealed with each respective sgRNA duplex.

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.
