Improving CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing efficiency in Yarrowia lipolytica using direct tRNA-sgRNA fusions.
Yarrowia lipolytica is an important oleaginous yeast currently used in the production of specialty chemicals and has a great potential for further applications in lipid biotechnology. Harnessing the full potential of Y. lipolytica is, however, limited by its inherent recalcitrance to genetic manipulation. In contrast to Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Y. lipolytica is poor in homology-mediated DNA repair and thus in homologous recombination, which limits site-specific gene editing in this yeast. Recently developed CRISPR/Cas9-based methods using tRNA-sgRNA fusions succeeded in editing some genomic loci in Y. lipolytica. Nonetheless, the majority of other tested loci either failed editing or editing was achieved but at very low efficiency using these methods. Using tools of secondary RNA structure prediction, we were able to improve the design of the tRNA-sgRNA fusions used for the expression of single guide RNA (sgRNA) in such methods. This resulted in high efficiency CRISPR/cas9 gene editing at chromosomal loci that failed gene editing or were edited at very low efficiencies with previous methods. In addition, we characterized the gene editing performance of our newly designed tRNA-sgRNA fusions for both chromosomal gene integration and deletion. As such, this study presents an efficient CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene-editing tool for efficient genetic engineering of Yarrowia lipolytica.

CRISPR/Cas9-mediated efficient white genome editing in the black soldier fly Hermetia illucens.
The CRISPR/Cas9 system is the most straightforward genome-editing technology to date, enabling genetic engineering in many insects, including the black soldier fly, Hermetia illucens. The white gene plays a significant role in the multifarious life activities of insects, especially the pigmentation of the eyes. In this study, the white gene of H. illucens (Hiwhite) was cloned, identified, and bioinformatically analysed for the first time. Using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), we found that the white gene was expressed in the whole body of the adult flies, particularly in Malpighian tubules and compound eyes. Furthermore, we utilised CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome-editing technology to successfully generate heritable Hiwhite mutants using two single guide RNAs. During Hiwhite genome editing, we determined the timing, method, and needle-pulling parameters for embryo microinjection by observing early embryonic developmental features. We used the CasOT program to obtain highly specific guide RNAs (gRNAs) at the genome-wide level. According to the phenotypes of Hiwhite knockout strains, the pigmentation of larval stemmata, imaginal compound eyes, and ocelli differed from those of the wild type. These phenotypes were similar to those observed in other insects harbouring white gene mutations. In conclusion, our results described a detailed white genome editing process in black soldier flies, which lays a solid foundation for intensive research on the pigmentation pathway of the eyes and provides a methodological basis for further genome engineering applications in black soldier flies.

Why Include the Public in Genome Editing Governance Deliberation?
With the birth of genetically engineered twins in November 2018, international debate about human genome editing governance has moved from an emphasis on mutual engagement among multiple stakeholders to a self-regulatory model enacted through high-level expert groups with little or no public input. This article reconstructs this paradigm shift and suggests that inclusive public deliberation should still have a role in public decision making about genome editing.

CRISPR/Cas9 Gene Editing In Vitro and in Retinal Cells In Vivo.
CRISPR/Cas9 is an efficient tool to knock down specific genes in various organisms. In this chapter, we describe how to assess knockdown of human rhodopsin (RHO) gene carrying the P23H mutation in vitro, in engineered HeLa cells, and in vivo, in P23H RHO transgenic mice. To this aim, we report two molecular assays: site-specific PCR on P23H RHO cells treated with CRISPR/Cas9 and Western blotting analysis on retinal cells prepared from P23H RHO transgenic mice electroporated with CRISPR/Cas9 and GFP plasmids.

Functional validation of variants of unknown significance using CRISPR gene editing and transcriptomics: A Kleefstra syndrome case study.
There are an estimated > 400 million people living with a rare disease globally, with genetic variants the cause of approximately 80% of cases. Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) rapidly identifies genetic variants however they are often of unknown significance. Low throughput functional validation in specialist laboratories is the current ad hoc approach for functional validation of genetic variants, which creating major bottlenecks in patient diagnosis. This study investigates the application of CRISPR gene editing followed by genome wide transcriptomic profiling to facilitate patient diagnosis. As proof-of-concept, we introduced a variant in the Euchromatin histone methyl transferase (EHMT1) gene into HEK293T cells. We identified changes in the regulation of the cell cycle, neural gene expression and suppression of gene expression changes on chromosome 19 and chromosome X, that are in keeping with Kleefstra syndrome clinical phenotype and/or provide insight into disease mechanism. This study demonstrates the utility of genome editing followed by functional readouts to rapidly and systematically validating the function of variants of unknown significance in patients suffering from rare diseases.

Not Only Editing: A Cas-Cade of CRISPR/Cas-Based Tools for Functional Genomics in Plants and Animals.
The advent of CRISPR/Cas9 technology has revolutionized genome editing, enabling the attainment of once-unimaginable goals. CRISPR/Cas's groundbreaking attributes lie in its simplicity, versatility, universality, and independence from customized DNA-protein systems, erasing the need for specialized expertise and broadening its scope of applications. It is therefore more and more used for genome modification including the generation of mutants. Beyond such editing scopes, the recent development of novel or modified Cas-based systems has spawned an array of additional biotechnological tools, empowering both fundamental and applied research. Precisely targeting DNA or RNA sequences, the CRISPR/Cas system has been harnessed in fields as diverse as gene regulation, deepening insights into gene expression, epigenetic changes, genome spatial organization, and chromatin dynamics. Furthermore, it aids in genome imaging and sequencing, as well as effective identification and countering of viral pathogens in plants and animals. All in all, the non-editing aspect of CRISPR/Cas exhibits tremendous potential across diverse domains, including diagnostics, biotechnology, and fundamental research. This article reviews and critically evaluates the primary CRISPR/Cas-based tools developed for plants and animals, underlining their transformative impact.

What did CRISPR-Cas9 accomplish in its first 10 years?
It's been 10 years now from the debut of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats-associated protein 9 (CRISPR/Cas9) era in which gene engineering has never been so accessible, precise and efficient. This technology, like a refined surgical procedure, has offered the ability of removing different types of disease causing mutations and restoring key proteins activity with ease of outperforming the previous resembling methods: zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs) and transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs). Additionally, CRISPR-Cas9 systems can systematically introduce genetic sequences to the specific sites in the human genome allowing to stimulate desired functions such as anti-tumoral and anti-infectious faculties. The present brief review provides an updated resume of CRISPR-Cas9's top achievements from its first appearance to the current date focusing on the breakthrough research including in vitro, in vivo and human studies. This enables the evaluation of the previous phase 'the proof-of-concept phase' and marks the beginning of the next phase which will probably bring a spate of clinical trials.

Engineering CRISPR mouse models of cancer.
Gene targeting in mammals has revolutionized the study of complex diseases, involving the interaction of multiple genes, cells, and organ systems. In cancer, genetically engineered mouse models deciphered biological principles by integrating molecular mechanisms, cellular processes, and environmental signals. Major advances in manipulative mouse genetics are currently emerging from breakthroughs in gene editing, which open new avenues for rapid model generation. Here, we review recent developments in engineering CRISPR mouse models of cancer. We describe engineering strategies, including germline manipulation of zygotes or embryonic stem cells, direct in vivo somatic gene editing, and ex vivo targeting of cellular transplant models. We also discuss promises and limitations of the expanding spectrum of CRISPR applications, ranging from engineering of simple mutations over complex genomic rearrangements to gene and epigenome regulation. Fast and scalable in vivo CRISPR methodologies pave the way for a new phase of functional cancer genomics.

One-step generation of mice with gene editing by Tol2 transposon-dependent gRNA delivery.
Conditional knockout mice are valuable tools for examining the functions of targeted genes in a time- and space-specific manner. Here, we generated gene-edited mice by using the Tol2 transposon to introduce guide RNA (gRNA) into fertilized eggs obtained by crossing LSL (loxP-stop-loxP)-CRISPR-associated 9 (Cas9) mice, which express Cas9 in a Cre-dependent manner, with CAG-CreER mice. Transposase mRNA and plasmid DNA, which contained a gRNA sequence for the gene encoding tyrosinase flanked by the transposase recognition sequence, were injected together into fertilized eggs. As a result, the transcribed gRNA cleaved the target genome in a Cas9-dependent manner. Using this method, it is possible to generate conditional genome-edited mice more easily in a shorter period of time.
