A 6.4 kb MluI-ClaI fragment was isolated from pLenti6.2/V5DEST (Invitrogen) and ligated to a linker comprising oligonucleotides 5'-CGATAACTGCAGAACCAATGCATTGGA-3' and 5'-CGCGTCCAATGCATTGGTTCTGCAGTTAT-3'. A library of MluI-PstI linkers was constructed using 24-bp Luminex DNA barcodes9 (link) placed within oligonucleotides 5'-CGCGTXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXCTGCA-3' and 5'-GxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxA-3', where XXX...XXX includes the sense barcode sequence and xxx...xxx includes the antisense barcode sequence, and each of these linkers was individually ligated into the MluI-PstI backbone of the above vector to generate lentiviral barcoding plasmids. Lentivirus was generated from lentivral barcoding plasmids as previously described24 using pCMV-dR8.2 dvpr and pCMV-VSVG packaging vectors in FuGENE6-transfected (Roche Corporation) HEK-293T cells; viral supernatant was collected after 72h, passed through a sterile 0.45μm syringe filter (VWR cat. 28144-007), and stored at −80°C.
