Rational Selection of CRISPR-Cas Triggering Homology-Directed Repair in Human Cells.
The CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat)-Cas (CRISPR-associated) nucleases have been widely applied for genome engineering. Cas9 (Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 [SpCas9] and Staphylococcus aureus Cas9 [SaCas9]) and Cpf1 (i.e., Francisella novicida U112 Cpf1 [FnCpf1], also named FnCas12a) were harnessed to perform gene editing in human cells. Precise genetic modification by homology-directed repair (HDR) is an attractive approach for in situ gene correction. However, so far, the comparative efficiencies of HDR mediated by different CRISPR orthologs remain unknown. To address this question, in this study, we developed a reporter system to investigate HDR efficiencies triggered by various CRISPR orthologs. We found that SpCas9 and SaCas9, the two most commonly used Cas9 enzymes, possessed a similar ability to induce HDR. Interestingly, with the increasing amount of coding plasmids or additional nuclear localization sequences, FnCpf1 could improve the HDR efficacy. Collectively, our study provides insights for the rational selection of appropriate tools for human genome manipulation.

Crispr/Cas9-mediated cleavages facilitate homologous recombination during genetic engineering of a large chromosomal region.
Homologous recombination over large genomic regions is difficult to achieve due to low efficiencies. Here, we report the successful engineering of a humanized mTert allele, hmTert, in the mouse genome by replacing an 18.1-kb genomic region around the mTert gene with a recombinant fragment of over 45.5 kb, using homologous recombination facilitated by the Crispr/Cas9 technology, in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). In our experiments, with DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) generated by Crispr/Cas9 system, the homologous recombination efficiency was up to 11% and 16% in two mESC lines TC1 and v6.5, respectively. Overall, we obtained a total of 27 mESC clones with heterozygous hmTert/mTert alleles and three clones with homozygous hmTert alleles. DSBs induced by Crispr/Cas9 cleavages also caused high rates of genomic DNA deletions and mutations at single-guide RNA target sites. Our results indicated that the Crispr/Cas9 system significantly increased the efficiency of homologous recombination-mediated gene editing over a large genomic region in mammalian cells, and also caused frequent mutations at unedited target sites. Overall, this strategy provides an efficient and feasible way for manipulating large chromosomal regions.

Generating Single Nucleotide Point Mutations in E. coli with the No-SCAR System.
Genetic manipulation of microbial genomes is highly relevant for studying biological systems and the development of biotechnologies. In E. coli, λ-Red recombineering is one of the most widely used gene-editing methods, enabling site-specific insertions, deletions, and point mutations of any genomic locus. The no-SCAR system combines λ-Red recombineering with CRISPR/Cas9 for programmable selection of recombinant cells. Recombineering results in the transient production of heteroduplex DNA, as only one strand of DNA is initially altered, leaving the mismatched bases susceptible to repair by the host methyl-directed mismatch repair (MMR) system and reduces the efficiency of generating single nucleotide point mutations. Here we describe a method, where expression of cas9 and the MMR-inhibiting mutLE32K variant are independently controlled by anhydrotetracycline- and cumate-inducible promoters from the pCas9CyMutL plasmid. Thus, MMR is selectively inhibited until recombinant cells have undergone replication and the desired mutation is permanently incorporated. By transiently inhibiting MMR, the accumulation of off-target mutations typically associated with MMR-deficient cell types is minimized. Methods for designing the editing template and sgRNA, cloning of the sgRNA, induction of λ-Red and MutLE32K, the transformation of editing oligo, and induction of Cas9 for mutant selection are detailed within.

Generation of Knockout Gene-Edited Human Intestinal Organoids.
We discuss a methodology to generate and study knockout gene-edited human intestinal organoids. We describe the generation of knockout human embryonic stem cell lines that we then differentiate into mature human intestinal organoid tissue in Matrigel using several growth factors. We also discuss a pair of assays that can be used to study the integrity of the intestinal epithelial barrier of the human intestinal organoids under inflammatory stress conditions.

Rice Haploid Inducer Development by Genome Editing.
The current method to induce haploids in rice is anther culture, which is time-consuming and labor intensive and only works for some varieties. Here we describe a seed-based haploid induction system created by CRISPR/Cas9 technology. By editing OsMATL, we generate rice haploid inducer lines with a 2-5% haploid induction rate in different germplasms.

Modeling Lysosomal Disease in Dictyostelium discoideum: Examining the Trafficking and Secretion of Lysosomal Enzymes.
Non-mammalian models are powerful systems for enhancing our understanding of lysosomal function and lysosomal storage diseases. The social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum is an excellent model organism for studying lysosomal function, as its genome encodes many proteins associated with lysosomal disease. Methods for gene knockout are straightforward in D. discoideum and include restriction enzyme-mediated integration (REMI) mutagenesis, homologous recombination via the Cre-loxP system, and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing, which collectively allow researchers to study protein function (e.g., lysosomal enzymes) in a genetically tractable biomedical model system. Additionally, activity assays for conserved lysosomal enzymes are well-established in D. discoideum. In this chapter, we outline methods for studying the intracellular localization and secretion of conserved lysosomal proteins in D. discoideum.

Multiplexed CRISPR-Cas9 protocol for large transgene integration into the Schistosoma mansoni genome.
Precise, on-target CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing has been shown in Schistosoma mansoni, involving both non-homology end joining and homology-directed repair pathways. Here, we present a multiplexed CRISPR-Cas9 protocol for large transgene integration into the S. mansoni genome. We describe steps for deploying multiplexed ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNPs) and donor DNA preparation. We then detail procedures for introducing RNPs into schistosome eggs by square-wave electroporation in the presence of a 5' phosphorothioate-modified double-stranded donor transgene. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Ittiprasert et al. (2023).1.

CRISPR/Cas9 mutagenesis in Volvox carteri.
Volvox carteri and other volvocine green algae comprise an excellent model for investigating developmental complexity and its origins. Here we describe a method for targeted mutagenesis in V. carteri using CRISPR/Cas9 components expressed from transgenes. We used V. carteri nitrate reductase gene (nitA) regulatory sequences to conditionally express Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9, and V. carteri U6 RNA gene regulatory sequences to constitutively express single-guide RNA (sgRNA) transcripts. Volvox carteri was bombarded with both Cas9 vector and one of several sgRNA vectors programmed to target different test genes (glsA, regA and invA), and transformants were selected for expression of a hygromycin-resistance marker present on the sgRNA vector. Hygromycin-resistant transformants grown with nitrate as sole nitrogen source (inducing for nitA) were tested for Cas9 and sgRNA expression, and for the ability to generate progeny with expected mutant phenotypes. Some transformants of a somatic regenerator (Reg) mutant strain receiving sgRNA plasmid with glsA protospacer sequence yielded progeny (at a rate of ~0.01%) with a gonidialess (Gls) phenotype similar to that observed for previously described glsA mutants, and sequencing of the glsA gene in independent mutants revealed short deletions within the targeted region of glsA, indicative of Cas9-directed non-homologous end joining. Similarly, bombardment of a morphologically wild-type strain with the Cas9 plasmid and sgRNA plasmids targeting regA or invA yielded regA and invA mutant transformants/progeny, respectively (at rates of 0.1-100%). The capacity to make precisely directed frameshift mutations should greatly accelerate the molecular genetic analysis of development in V. carteri, and of developmental novelty in the volvocine algae.

CRISPR/Cas9 and Agrobacterium tumefaciens virulence proteins synergistically increase efficiency of precise genome editing via homology directed repair in plants.
CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing and Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated genetic transformation are widely-used plant biotechnology tools derived from bacterial immunity-related systems, each involving DNA modification. The Cas9 endonuclease introduces DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), and the A. tumefaciens T-DNA is released by the VirD2 endonuclease assisted by VirDl and attached by VirE2, transferred to the plant nucleus and integrated into the genome. Here, we explored the potential for synergy between the two systems and found that Cas9 and three virulence (Vir) proteins achieve precise genome editing via the homology directed repair (HDR) pathway in tobacco and rice plants. Compared with Cas9T (Cas9, VirD1, VirE2) and CvD (Cas9-VirD2) systems, the HDR frequencies of a foreign GFPm gene in the CvDT system (Cas9-VirD2, VirD1, VirE2) increased 52-fold and 22-fold, respectively. Further optimization of the CvDT process with a donor linker (CvDTL) achieved a remarkable increase in the efficiency of HDR-mediated genome editing. Additionally, the HDR efficiency of the three rice endogenous genes ACETOLACTATE SYNTHASE (ALS), PHYTOENE DESATURASE (PDS), and NITROGEN TRANSPORTER 1.1 B (NRT1.1B) increased 24-, 32- and 16-fold, respectively, in the CvDTL system, compared with corresponding Cas9TL (Cas9T process with a donor linker). Our results suggest that collaboration between CRISPR/Cas9 and Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation can make great progress towards highly efficient and precise genome editing via the HDR pathway.
