CRISPR-Cas9-Induced Gene Editing in Primary Human Monocytes.
Monocytes play important and diverse roles in both homeostatic and inflammatory immune responses. The CRISPR-Cas9 system in lentiviral vectors has been widely used to manipulate specific genes of immortal monocyte cell lines to study monocyte functions. However, human primary monocytes are refractory to this method with low gene knockout (KO) efficiency. In this chapter, we developed an in vitro gene-editing procedure for primary human monocytes with a consistent and high-gene KO efficiency via a ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex consisting of Cas9 protein and single-guide RNA (sgRNA). This method can be adapted to study the functions of targeted signaling molecules involved in modulating monocyte polarization in primary human monocytes.

The acyl-acyl carrier protein thioesterases GmFATA1 and GmFATA2 are essential for fatty acid accumulation and growth in soybean.
Acyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) thioesterases (FAT) hydrolyze acyl-ACP complexes to release FA in plastids, which ultimately affects FA biosynthesis and profiles. Soybean GmFATA1 and GmFATA2 are homoeologous genes encoding oleoyl-ACP thioesterases whose role in seed oil accumulation and plant growth has not been defined. Using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing mutation of Gmfata1 or 2 led to reduced leaf FA content and growth defect at the early seedling stage. In contrast, no homozygous double mutants were obtained. Combined this indicates that GmFATA1 and GmFATA2 display overlapping, but not complete functional redundancy. Combined transcriptomic and lipidomic analysis revealed a large number of genes involved in FA synthesis and FA chain elongation are expressed at reduced level in the Gmfata1 mutant, accompanied by a lower triacylglycerol abundance at the early seedling stage. Further analysis showed that the Gmfata1 or 2 mutants had increased composition of the beneficial FA, oleic acid. The growth defect of Gmfata1 could be at least partially attributed to reduced acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity, reduced abundance of five unsaturated monogalactosyldiacylglycerol lipids, and altered chloroplast morphology. On the other hand, overexpression of GmFATA in soybean led to significant increases in leaf FA content by 5.7%, vegetative growth, and seed yield by 26.9%, and seed FA content by 23.2%. Thus, overexpression of GmFATA is an effective strategy to enhance soybean oil content and yield.

Legality of Embryonic Gene Editing in Australia.
The CRISPR-cas9 genome editing system (CRISPR) has been used to make precise and heritable changes to a diverse range of animals. The use of CRISPR to edit embryonic cells initially raised widespread criticism and calls for an international ban. However, the rapid development of genome editing has prompted governments around the world to review the regulatory frameworks that oversee genetic technologies. In Australia, the Prohibition of Human Cloning for Reproduction Act 2002 (Cth) and the Research Involving Human Embryos Act 2002 (Cth) expressly regulate the use of genome editing in early human embryos. This article analyses how these two Acts regulate research involving CRISPR and the implications of this for research practices in Australia. We argue that, given the current regulatory uncertainty around the legality of genome editing research in Australia, legislative reform is needed and propose reforms to provide greater clarity in this area.

Electroporation-Based CRISPR/Cas9 Gene Editing Using Cas9 Protein and Chemically Modified sgRNAs.
CRISPR/Cas9 is an effective and easy-to-use tool for editing the genome of many human cancer cell lines. However, in some hard-to-transfect cell lines and primary cells, gene editing is more challenging. This protocol details an electroporation-based protocol for the delivery of Cas9 protein from Streptococcus pyogenes complexed with chemically modified sgRNAs. We have found this protocol to work very efficiently in numerous cell lines and primary cells that are difficult to transfect by conventional chemical-based transfection methods.

Developing Bottom-Up Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell Derived Solid Tumor Models Using Precision Genome Editing Technologies.
Advances in genome and tissue engineering have spurred significant progress and opportunity for innovation in cancer modeling. Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are an established and powerful tool to study cellular processes in the context of disease-specific genetic backgrounds; however, their application to cancer has been limited by the resistance of many transformed cells to undergo successful reprogramming. Here, we review the status of human iPSC modeling of solid tumors in the context of genetic engineering, including how base and prime editing can be incorporated into "bottom-up" cancer modeling, a term we coined for iPSC-based cancer models using genetic engineering to induce transformation. This approach circumvents the need to reprogram cancer cells while allowing for dissection of the genetic mechanisms underlying transformation, progression, and metastasis with a high degree of precision and control. We also discuss the strengths and limitations of respective engineering approaches and outline experimental considerations for establishing future models.

Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeat (CRISPR)/CRISPR-Associated Endonuclease Cas9-Mediated Homology-Independent Integration for Generating Quality Control Materials for Clinical Molecular Genetic Testing.
Genome-edited human cell lines are important resources for producing quality control materials for clinical molecular genetic testing. Generating cell lines with defined mutations through homology-directed repair-based methods are inefficient and can lead to unwanted insertions and deletions in the target loci. Nonhomologous end joining in the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated endonuclease Cas9 (Cas9) system was harnessed to generate genome-engineered cell lines harboring target mutations. Donor plasmids containing target sites for the single guide RNA (sgRNA) and homologous DNA fragments harboring important cancer gene mutations were cotransfected with the Cas9/sgRNA vector into wild-type human cells. The introduced mutations were validated in-house and in 44 laboratories using various techniques, including next-generation sequencing. Exogenous sequences containing the target mutations were efficiently integrated into the ALK receptor tyrosine kinase (ALK) locus in HEK293T and A549 cells. Successful introduction of artificial mutations was confirmed via both Sanger sequencing and the amplification refractory mutation system. Results of external pilot testing revealed that the DNA samples derived from genome-edited cell lines were widely applicable across multiple platforms and laboratories. This study demonstrates that CRISPR/Cas9-induced nonhomologous end joining is a valuable and novel method for generating artificial mutants for use in quality control applications in clinical molecular genetics.

Genome engineering in rodents - status quo and perspectives.
The introduction of the CRISPR-Cas9 system in 2013 has revolutionized experimental genetics in mice and rats. This commentary gives an overview on the use of CRISPR either for gene editing in the germline or for editing and beyond editing in somatic cells. Future perspectives are opened by emerging CRISPR technologies that could enable genome engineering at larger scale.

[Application of gene editing technology in Escherichia coli].
Gene editing technology can be used to modify the genome of Escherichia coli for the investigation of gene functions, or to change the metabolic pathways for the efficient production of high-value products in engineered strains with genetic stability. A variety of gene editing technologies have been applied in prokaryotes, such as λ-Red homologous recombination and CRISPR/Cas9. As a traditional gene editing technique, λ-Red recombination is widely used. However, it has a few shortcomings, such as the limited integration efficiency by the integrated fragment size, the cumbersome gene editing process, and the FRT scar in the genome after recombination. CRISPR/Cas9 is widely used for genome editing at specific sites, which requires specific DNA segments according to the editing site. As the understanding of the two technologies deepens, a variety of composite gene editing techniques have been developed, such as the application of λ-Red homologous recombination in combination with homing endonucleaseⅠ-SceⅠ or CRISPR/Cas9. In this review, we summarized the basic principles of common gene editing techniques and composite gene editing techniques, as well as their applications in Escherichia coli, which can provide a basis for the selection of gene editing methods in prokaryotes.
