Guide RNA Design for Genome-Wide CRISPR Screens in Yarrowia lipolytica.
Genome-wide functional genomic screens are essential to determining the genetic underpinning of a biological process. Novel and powerful tools for perturbing gene function, with the help of genetic and epigenetic information, have made it possible to systematically investigate the contribution of every gene to evolved and engineered phenotypes. Functional genomics and screening for enhanced phenotypes become ever more important when dealing with nonconventional hosts. Non-model organisms are valuable to metabolic engineering as they present a range of desirable phenotypes and can help in avoiding complex and intensive engineering of less suitable hosts that do not possess the desired phenotype(s). Domestication of such hosts however requires a suite of synthetic biology tools that allow for targeted genome engineering, regulation of gene expression, and genome-wide mutational screens. The widespread adoption of CRISPR-Cas9 and CRISPR-Cpf1 based systems has allowed for such screens in many organisms. Key considerations in any genome-wide CRISPR screen are the design of a set of unique guide RNAs targeting the required set of genes in the genome and the design of nontargeting guide RNAs that function as appropriate negative controls for the experiment. In this methods chapter, we present protocols for the design of guides for a CRISPR screen, targeting every gene in the genome of the industrially relevant oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica. The first set of protocols describes the algorithm for the design of genome targeting and nontargeting guides for a genome-wide CRISPR-Cpf1 screen. The second set of protocols describes modifications to the first for the design of guides for a CRISPR-Cas9 screen. The strategies described here should serve as an efficient guide to design a library of gRNAs for most genome-wide CRISPR screens.

BACKGROUND: Precision genome engineering, with targeted therapy towards patient-specific mutations is predicted to be the future of personalized medicine. Ophthalmology is in the frontiers of development of targeted therapy since the eye is an accessible organ and has the ease of both delivery as well as monitoring effects of therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We reviewed literature using keywords CRISPR, precision medicine, genomic editing, retinal dystrophies, retinitis pigmentosa, Usher syndrome, Stargardt's Disease. Further, we collated data on current clinical trials. RESULTS: There is growing evidence on the role of genomic editing in retinal dystrophies, the various methods used, and stage of development of different therapies have been summarized in this paper. CONCLUSIONS: The CRISPR-Cas9 system has revolutionized genome editing, and opened avenues in drug discovery. It is important to understand the role of this system along with its applicability in the field of ophthalmology. In this review article, we briefly describe its methodology, the strategies of employing it for making genetic perturbations, and explore its applications in inherited retinal dystrophies.

Single-Cell Profiling of Lineages and Cell Types in the Vertebrate Brain.
CRISPR-Cas tools have recently been adapted for cell lineage tracing during development. Combined with single-cell RNA sequencing, these methods enable scalable lineage tracing with single-cell resolution. Here, I describe, scGESTALTv2, which combines cumulative CRISPR-Cas9 editing of a lineage barcode array with transcriptional profiling via droplet-based single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). The technique is applied in developing zebrafish brains to generate mutations in the barcode array during development. The recorded lineages along with cellular transcriptomes are then extracted via scRNA-seq to define cell relationships among thousands of profiled brain cells and dozens of cell types.

CRISPR-Cas-Mediated Gene Knockout in Tomato.
Loss-of-function mutants are crucial for plant functional genomics studies. With the advent of CRISPR-Cas genome editing, generating null alleles for one or multiple specific gene(s) has become feasible for many plant species including tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). An easily programmable RNA-guided Cas endonuclease efficiently creates DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) at targeted genomic sites that can be repaired by nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) typically leading to small insertions or deletions that can produce null mutations. Here, we describe how to utilize CRISPR-Cas genome editing to obtain stable tomato gene knockout lines.

Raising and Maintaining Xenopus tropicalis from Tadpole to Adult.
Xenopus tropicalis is a powerful model organism for cell and developmental biology research. Recently, precise gene-editing methods such as CRISPR-Cas9 have allowed facile creation of mutants. The ability to raise and maintain lines of wild-type and mutant animals through all life stages is thus critical for researchers using this model organism. The long fertile life (>8-10 yr) and relatively hardy nature of X. tropicalis makes this a straightforward process. Environmental parameters such as water temperature, pH, and conductivity often vary slightly among husbandry protocols. However, the stability of these variables is essential for rearing success. This protocol describes conditions to optimally raise and maintain X. tropicalis from embryos to adulthood.

Genome Editing As an Approach to the Study of in Vivo Transcription Reprogramming.
CDK8-mediated transcriptional reprogramming is essential for an extensive gene expression. Constitutive knockouts of the cdk8 gene are lethal at the morula stage. For modeling transcriptional reprogramming in an adult organism, we investigated the possibility to attenuate the CDK8 kinase activity with a F97G mutation in exon 3 of the cdk8 gene. According to preliminary experimental data, this mutation should lead to a decrease in CDK8 kinase activity. To edit the genome of laboratory mice, the CRISPR/Cas9 technology was used, in which the introduction of a double-stranded gap occurred at a distance of 128 nucleotide pairs from the planned site of the introduced mutation. To introduce the mutation, a matrix for homologous repair was used as part of plasmid DNA, with homologous arms 903 and 484 bp in the 5'-3' region from the point of double-stranded rupture, respectively. As a result, mice with site-specific target mutations in exon 3 of the cdk8 gene were obtained. We for the first time demonstrated a high efficacy of the mutation 128 bp apart from the site of double-strand break. Viable animals with the F97G mutation in the catalytic domain of CDK8 kinase were obtained for the first time. The resulting cdk8 mutant mice will be used in subsequent studies to simulate the processes involving transcription reprogramming.

Exploring the potential of cell-derived vesicles for transient delivery of gene editing payloads.
Gene editing technologies have the potential to correct genetic disorders by modifying, inserting, or deleting specific DNA sequences or genes, paving the way for a new class of genetic therapies. While gene editing tools continue to be improved to increase their precision and efficiency, the limited efficacy of in vivo delivery remains a major hurdle for clinical use. An ideal delivery vehicle should be able to target a sufficient number of diseased cells in a transient time window to maximize on-target editing and mitigate off-target events and immunogenicity. Here, we review major advances in novel delivery platforms based on cell-derived vesicles - extracellular vesicles and virus-like particles - for transient delivery of gene editing payloads. We discuss major findings regarding packaging, in vivo biodistribution, therapeutic efficacy, and safety concerns of cell-derived vesicles delivery of gene editing cargos and their potential for clinical translation.

CRISPR/Cas9-based genome editing of the filamentous fungi: the state of the art.
In recent years, a variety of genetic tools have been developed and applied to various filamentous fungi, which are widely applied in agriculture and the food industry. However, the low efficiency of gene targeting has for many years hampered studies on functional genomics in this important group of microorganisms. The emergence of CRISPR/Cas9 genome-editing technology has sparked a revolution in genetic research due to its high efficiency, versatility, and easy operation and opened the door for the discovery and exploitation of many new natural products. Although the application of the CRISPR/Cas9 system in filamentous fungi is still in its infancy compared to its common use in E. coli, yeasts, and mammals, the deep development of this system will certainly drive the exploitation of fungal diversity. In this review, we summarize the research progress on CRISPR/Cas9 systems in filamentous fungi and finally highlight further prospects in this area.

CRISPR/Cas9 ribonucleoprotein-mediated knockin generation in hTERT-RPE1 cells.
hTERT-RPE1 cells are genetically stable near diploid cells widely used to model cell division, DNA repair, or ciliogenesis in a non-transformed context. However, poor transfectability and limited homology-directed repair capacity hamper their amenability to gene editing. Here, we describe a protocol for rapid and efficient generation of diverse homozygous knockins. In contrast to other approaches, this strategy bypasses the need for molecular cloning. Our approach can also be applied to a variety of cell types including cancer and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs).
