The knockout HEK293A cell line was generated as in [38 (link)] using the HEK293A WT (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) cell line. Briefly, cell clones with deletions in the region of constitutive proteins encoding exons (Supplementary Figure S1A) were obtained using the CRISPR/Cas9 method. The design of the sgRNAs for human PARP1 gene knockout was performed using the Benchling CRISPR tool (https://www.benchling.com/, accessed on 9 November 2019) to delete the DNA sequence that includes 3–5 exons of the PARP1 gene. The selected protospacers PARP1-gRNA1 (CTAGAACCTCCAATACCATG (TGG)) and PARP1-gRNA2 (GCAAGTGACCACAAAGGTGC (AGG) (PAM sequences in brackets)) were cloned in plasmid pSpCas9(BB)-2A-GFP (PX458) (Addgene #48138).
