In vivo interrogation of gene function in the mammalian brain using CRISPR-Cas9.
Probing gene function in the mammalian brain can be greatly assisted with methods to manipulate the genome of neurons in vivo. The clustered, regularly interspaced, short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-associated endonuclease (Cas)9 from Streptococcus pyogenes (SpCas9) can be used to edit single or multiple genes in replicating eukaryotic cells, resulting in frame-shifting insertion/deletion (indel) mutations and subsequent protein depletion. Here, we delivered SpCas9 and guide RNAs using adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors to target single (Mecp2) as well as multiple genes (Dnmt1, Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b) in the adult mouse brain in vivo. We characterized the effects of genome modifications in postmitotic neurons using biochemical, genetic, electrophysiological and behavioral readouts. Our results demonstrate that AAV-mediated SpCas9 genome editing can enable reverse genetic studies of gene function in the brain.

Efficient Genome Editing in Chicken DF-1 Cells Using the CRISPR/Cas9 System.
In recent years, genome engineering technology has provided unprecedented opportunities for site-specific modification of biological genomes. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated (Cas) 9 is one such means that can target a specific genome locus. It has been applied in human cells and many other organisms. Meanwhile, to efficiently enrich targeted cells, several surrogate systems have also been developed. However, very limited information exists on the application of CRISPR/Cas9 in chickens. In this study, we employed the CRISPR/Cas9 system to induce mutations in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ), ATP synthase epsilon subunit (ATP5E), and ovalbumin (OVA) genes in chicken DF-1 cells. The results of T7E1 assays showed that the mutation rate at the three different loci was 0.75%, 0.5%, and 3.0%, respectively. In order to improve the mutation efficiency, we used the Puro(R) gene for efficient enrichment of genetically modified cells with the surrogate reporter system. The mutation rate, as assessed via the T7E1 assay, increased to 60.7%, 61.3%, and 47.3%, and subsequent sequence analysis showed that the mutation efficiency increased to 94.7%, 95%, and 95%, respectively. In addition, there were no detectable off-target mutations in three potential off-target sites using the T7E1 assay. As noted above, the CRISPR/Cas9 system is a robust tool for chicken genome editing.

CRISPR/Cas9 Gene Editing System Can Alter Gene Expression and Induce DNA Damage Accumulation.
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and the associated protein (Cas) gene editing can induce P53 activation, large genome fragment deletions, and chromosomal structural variations. Here, gene expression was detected in host cells using transcriptome sequencing following CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing. We found that the gene editing reshaped the gene expression, and the number of differentially expressed genes was correlated with the gene editing efficiency. Moreover, we found that alternative splicing occurred at random sites and that targeting a single site for gene editing may not result in the formation of fusion genes. Further, gene ontology and KEGG enrichment analysis showed that gene editing altered the fundamental biological processes and pathways associated with diseases. Finally, we found that cell growth was not affected; however, the DNA damage response protein-γH2AX-was activated. This study revealed that CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing may induce cancer-related changes and provided basic data for research on the safety risks associated with the use of the CRISPR/Cas9 system.

Chromatin accessibility and guide sequence secondary structure affect CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing efficiency.
Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)-associated protein 9 (CRISPR-Cas9) systems have emerged as the method of choice for genome editing, but large variations in on-target efficiencies continue to limit their applicability. Here, we investigate the effect of chromatin accessibility on Cas9-mediated gene editing efficiency for 20 gRNAs targeting 10 genomic loci in HEK293T cells using both SpCas9 and the eSpCas9(1.1) variant. Our study indicates that gene editing is more efficient in euchromatin than in heterochromatin, and we validate this finding in HeLa cells and in human fibroblasts. Furthermore, we investigate the gRNA sequence determinants of CRISPR-Cas9 activity using a surrogate reporter system and find that the efficiency of Cas9-mediated gene editing is dependent on guide sequence secondary structure formation. This knowledge can aid in the further improvement of tools for gRNA design.

Enhancing Animal Disease Resistance, Production Efficiency, and Welfare through Precise Genome Editing.
The major goal of animal breeding is the genetic enhancement of economic traits. The CRISPR/Cas system, which includes nuclease-mediated and base editor mediated genome editing tools, provides an unprecedented approach to modify the mammalian genome. Thus, farm animal genetic engineering and genetic manipulation have been fundamentally revolutionized. Agricultural animals with traits of interest can be obtained in just one generation (and without long time selection). Here, we reviewed the advancements of the CRISPR (Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)/Cas (CRISPR associated proteins) genome editing tools and their applications in animal breeding, especially in improving disease resistance, production performance, and animal welfare. Additionally, we covered the regulations on genome-edited animals (GEAs) and ways to accelerate their use. Recommendations for how to produce GEAs were also discussed. Despite the current challenges, we believe that genome editing breeding and GEAs will be available in the near future.

CRISPR-Cas9 delivery strategies and applications: Review and update.
Nowadays, a significant part of the investigations carried out in the medical field belong to cancer treatment. Generally, conventional cancer treatments, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery, which have been used for a long time, are not sufficient, especially in malignant cancers. Because genetic mutations cause cancers, researchers are trying to treat these diseases using genetic engineering tools. One of them is clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR), a powerful tool in genetic engineering in the last decade. CRISPR, which forms the CRISPR-Cas structure with its endonuclease protein, Cas, is known as a part of the immune system (adaptive immunity) in bacteria and archaea. Among the types of Cas proteins, Cas9 endonuclease has been used in many scientific studies due to its high accuracy and efficiency. This review reviews the CRISPR system, focusing on the history, classification, delivery methods, applications, new generations, and challenges of CRISPR-Cas9 technology.

Therapeutic applications of CRISPR/Cas9 system in gene therapy.
Gene therapy is based on the principle of the genetic manipulation of DNA or RNA for treating and preventing human diseases. The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/CRISPR associated nuclease9 (CRISPR/Cas9) system, derived from the acquired immune system in bacteria and archaea, has provided a new tool for accurate manipulation of genomic sequence to attain a therapeutic result. The advantage of CRISPR which made it an easy and flexible tool for diverse genome editing purposes is that a single protein (Cas9) complex with 2 short RNA sequences, function as a site-specific endonuclease. Recently, application of CRISPR/Cas9 system has become popular for therapeutic aims such as gene therapy. In this article, we review the fundamental mechanisms of CRISPR-Cas9 function and summarize preclinical CRISPR-mediated gene therapy reports on a wide variety of disorders.

G-quadruplex-based CRISPR photoswitch for spatiotemporal control of genomic modulation.
CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) technology holds tremendous promise for gene regulation and editing. However, precise control of CRISPR editing is essential to overcome its uncontrollable reaction process and excessive activity that leads to off-target editing. To overcome this problem, we engineered a photoswitch on G-quadruplex gRNA (GqRNA) for precisely controlled gene editing and expression by embedding dicationic azobenzene derivatives (AZD++). Our results demonstrated that rational design of the G-quadruplex onto crRNA conferred higher stability and sequence recognition specificity than unmodified single guide (sgRNA). Light-induced isomerization of AZD++ quickly transformed the on state of GqRNA, which facilitated rapid activation of ribonucleoprotein activity for genome editing of on-target sites in cells with excellent editing efficiency. In turn, AZD++-GqRNA promptly refolded to an off state to inhibit genomic cleavage, and limited the generation of off-target effects and by-products. Therefore, the proposed strategy of a photo-reversible modality presents a new opportunity for CRISPR-Cas9 modulation to improve its safety and applicability.

Modulation of a Stem Cell Gene: LGR4 Knockout in a Human Cell Line by CRISPR/Cas Method.
The modulation of gene expression is essential for the investigation of function or involved pathway of a single gene of interest, in particular in the developmental/stem cell biology. The temporary knock down of gene expression via siRNA is a well-established but with a residual expression connected modulation method. The chapter describes the complete knockout of a defined target and allows a comprehensive study of different gene like the stem cell gene LGR4 (Leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein-coupled receptor 4) using the new developed CRISPR/Cas method (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats).
