An Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression method contributes to functional analysis of a transcription factor and potential application of gene editing in Chenopodium quinoa.
An efficient Agrobacterium-mediated transient expression method was developed, which contributed to the functional characterization of the transcription factor CqPHR1, and demonstrates the potential application of gene editing in quinoa. Chenopodium quinoa is a crop expected to ensure global food security in future due to its high resistance to multiple abiotic stresses and nutritional value. We cloned one of the paralogous genes of the Arabidopsis homolog PHR1 (PHOSPHATE STARVATION RESPONSE 1) in quinoa-inbred lines by reverse genetic approach. Overexpression of CqPHR1 driven by the constitutive CaMV 35S promoter in Arabidopsis phr1 mutant can complement its phenotypes, including the induction of phosphate starvation-induced (PSI) genes and anthocyanin accumulation in leaves. By Agrobacterium-mediated gene transient expression, we found that CqPHR1 localized in the nucleus of quinoa cells, and overexpression of CqPHR1 in quinoa cells promoted PSI genes expression, which further revealed the function of CqPHR1 as a transcription factor. We have also shown that the transient expression system can be used to express Cas9 protein in various quinoa-inbred lines and perform effective gene editing in quinoa tissue. The method developed in this study will be useful for verifying the effectiveness of gene-editing systems in quinoa cells and has potential application in the generation of gene-edited quinoa with heritable traits.

Gene editing achieves consistently higher favorability in social and traditional media than GMOs.
While GMOs have been the subject of negative discourse over a long time period, it is possible that newer breeding technologies like gene editing are viewed more favorably. We present data for a 5-year period between January 2018 and December 2022, showing that in content specific to agricultural biotechnology, gene editing achieves consistently higher favorability ratings than GMOs in both social and traditional English-language media. Our sentiment analysis shows that favorability is especially positive in social media, with close to 100% favorability achieved in numerous monthly values throughout our 5 years of analysis. We believe that the scientific community can therefore be cautiously optimistic based on current trends that gene editing will be accepted by the public and be able to achieve its promise of making a substantial contribution to future food security and environmental sustainability worldwide. However, there are some recent indications of more sustained downward trends, which may be a cause for concern.

CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing techniques and new breeding strategies in cereals - current status, improvements, and perspectives.
Cereal crops, including triticeae species (barley, wheat, rye), as well as edible cereals (wheat, corn, rice, oat, rye, sorghum), are significant suppliers for human consumption, livestock feed, and breweries. Over the past half-century, modern varieties of cereal crops with increased yields have contributed to global food security. However, presently cultivated elite crop varieties were developed mainly for optimal environmental conditions. Thus, it has become evident that taking into account the ongoing climate changes, currently a priority should be given to developing new stress-tolerant cereal cultivars. It is necessary to enhance the accuracy of methods and time required to generate new cereal cultivars with the desired features to adapt to climate change and keep up with the world population expansion. The CRISPR/Cas9 system has been developed as a powerful and versatile genome editing tool to achieve desirable traits, such as developing high-yielding, stress-tolerant, and disease-resistant transgene-free lines in major cereals. Despite recent advances, the CRISPR/Cas9 application in cereals faces several challenges, including a significant amount of time required to develop transgene-free lines, laboriousness, and a limited number of genotypes that may be used for the transformation and in vitro regeneration. Additionally, developing elite lines through genome editing has been restricted in many countries, especially Europe and New Zealand, due to a lack of flexibility in GMO regulations. This review provides a comprehensive update to researchers interested in improving cereals using gene-editing technologies, such as CRISPR/Cas9. We will review some critical and recent studies on crop improvements and their contributing factors to superior cereals through gene-editing technologies.

Elucidation of CRISPR-Cas9 application in novel cellular immunotherapy.
Novel cellular immunotherapy with engineered T cells has improved cancer treatment and established therapeutic promises to prevent tumor formation in clinical studies. Due to certain restrictions and difficulties, CAR and TCR T-cells therapies were inadequate at points. CRISPR Cas9 genome-editing tool has significant potential for these two cell-based therapies. As a specialized gene-editing technique, CRISPR Cas9 is used to repair genetic alternations with minimal damage. It is used as an adjunct to immunotherapy to stimulate a more robust immune response. CRISPR has long outpaced other target-specific genome editing methods such as ZFNs and TALEN because of its high efficiency, competence in targeting, and stable operating conditions. CRISPR can overcome the two major drawbacks of universal CAR T cells: allorejection and graft-vs-host disease. TCR-based T cell treatment can reduce inappropriate binding between endogenous and transgenic TCR, resulting in a reduction of severe toxicity. The CAR and TCR T based cell therapies uphold an excellent future for tumor malignancies. This article has elucidated the administration of CRISPR Cas9 in novel cellular immunotherapy, CAR, and TCR T cell therapy. However, this article did not fail to observe this technology's ethical concerns, limitations, and challenges. Furthermore, the article compares CRISPR-mediated allogeneic CAR T cell to TCR-T cell therapy.

CRISPR-Cas9 Editing Induces Loss of Heterozygosity in the Pathogenic Yeast Candida parapsilosis.
Genetic manipulation is often used to study gene function. However, unplanned genome changes (including single nucleotide polymorphisms [SNPs], aneuploidy, and loss of heterozygosity [LOH]) can affect the phenotypic traits of the engineered strains. Here, we compared the effect of classical deletion methods (replacing target alleles with selectable markers by homologous recombination) with CRISPR-Cas9 editing in the diploid human-pathogenic yeast Candida parapsilosis. We sequenced the genomes of 9 isolates that were modified using classic recombination methods and 12 that were edited using CRISPR-Cas9. As a control, the genomes of eight isolates that were transformed with a Cas9-expressing plasmid in the absence of a guide RNA were also sequenced. Following gene manipulation using classic homologous recombination, only one strain exhibited extensive LOH near the targeted gene (8.9 kb), whereas another contained multiple LOH events not associated with the intended modification. In contrast, large regions of LOH (up to >1,100 kb) were observed in most CRISPR-Cas9-edited strains. LOH most commonly occurred adjacent to the Cas9 cut site and extended to the telomere in four isolates. In two isolates, we observed LOH on chromosomes that were not targeted by CRISPR-Cas9. Among the CRISPR-edited isolates, two exhibited cysteine and methionine auxotrophy caused by LOH at a heterozygous site in MET10, approximately 11 and 157 kb downstream from the Cas9 target site, respectively. C. parapsilosis isolates have relatively low levels of heterozygosity. However, our results show that mutation complementation to confirm observed phenotypes is required when using CRISPR-Cas9. IMPORTANCE CRISPR-Cas9 has greatly streamlined gene editing and is now the gold standard and first choice for genetic engineering. However, we show that in diploid species, extra care should be taken in confirming the cause of any phenotypic changes observed. We show that the Cas9-induced double-strand break is often associated with loss of heterozygosity in the asexual diploid human fungal pathogen Candida parapsilosis. This can result in deleterious heterozygous variants (e.g., stop gain in one allele) becoming homozygous, resulting in unplanned phenotypic changes. Our results stress the importance of mutation complementation even when using CRISPR-Cas9.

Protoplast Isolation, Transfection, and Gene Editing for Soybean (Glycine max ).
Protoplast is a versatile system for conducting cell-based assays, analyzing diverse signaling pathways, studying functions of cellular machineries, and functional genomics screening. Protoplast engineering has become an important tool for basic plant molecular biology research and developing genome-edited crops. This system allows the direct delivery of DNA, RNA, or proteins into plant cells and provides a high-throughput system to validate gene-editing reagents. It also facilitates the delivery of homology-directed repair templates (donor molecules) into plant cells, enabling precise DNA edits in the genome. There is a great deal of interest in the plant community to develop these precise edits, as they may expand the potential for developing value-added traits which may be difficult to achieve by other gene-editing applications and/or traditional breeding alone. This chapter provides improved working protocols for isolating and transforming protoplast from immature soybean seeds with 44% of transfection efficiency validated by the green fluorescent protein reporter. We also describe a method for gene editing in soybean protoplasts using single guide RNA molecules.

Evaluation of culture methods and chemical reagent combinations on CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing systems by lipofection in pig zygotes.
The delivery of CRISPR/Cas ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes is gaining attention owing to its high cleavage efficiency and reduced off-target effects. Although RNPs can be delivered into porcine zygotes via electroporation with relatively high efficiency, lipofection-mediated transfection appears to be versatile because of its ease of use, low cost, and adaptation to high-throughput systems. However, this system requires improvements in terms of embryo development and mutation rates. Therefore, this study elucidated the effects of culture methods and reagent combinations on the CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing systems by using three lipofection reagents: Lipofectamine™ CRISPRMAX™ Cas9 Transfection Reagent (CM), Lipofectamine™ 2000 Transfection Reagent (LP), and jetCRISPR™ RNP Transfection Reagent (Jet). Porcine zona pellucida-free zygotes were incubated for 5 h with Cas9, a guide RNA targeting CD163, and the above lipofection reagents. When examining the effect of culture methods using 4-well (multiple embryo culture) and 25-well plates (single embryo culture) on the efficiency of CM-mediated zygote transfection, the culture of embryos in 25-well plates significantly increased the blastocyst formation rate; however, there was no difference in mutation rates between the 4-well and 25-well plates. When assessing the effects of individual or combined reagents on the efficiency of zygote transfection, the mutation rate was significantly lower for individual LP compared to individual CM- and Jet-mediated transfections. Moreover, combinations of lipofection transfection reagents did not significantly increase the mutation rate or mutation efficiency.
