Evolutionary genome engineering using a restriction–modification system
Modification of complex microbial cellular processes is often necessary to obtain organisms with particularly favorable characteristics, but such experiments can take many generations to achieve. In the present article, we accelerated the experimental evolution of Escherichia coli populations under selection for improved growth using one of the restriction-modification systems, which have shape...
متن کاملGenome engineering in the yeast pathogen Candida glabrata using the CRISPR-Cas9 system
Among Candida species, the opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida glabrata has become the second most common causative agent of candidiasis in the world and a major public health concern. Yet, few molecular tools and resources are available to explore the biology of C. glabrata and to better understand its virulence during infection. In this study, we describe a robust experimental strategy to g...
متن کاملCRISPR system for genome engineering: the application for autophagy study
CRISPR/Cas9 is the latest tool introduced in the field of genome engineering and is so far the best genome-editing tool as compared to its precedents such as, meganucleases, zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs) and transcription activator-like effectors (TALENs). The simple design and assembly of the CRISPR/Cas9 system makes genome editing easy to perform as it uses small guide RNAs that correspond to ...
متن کاملOptimization of Genome Engineering Approaches with the CRISPR/Cas9 System
Designer nucleases such as TALENS and Cas9 have opened new opportunities to scarlessly edit the mammalian genome. Here we explored several parameters that influence Cas9-mediated scarless genome editing efficiency in murine embryonic stem cells. Optimization of transfection conditions and enriching for transfected cells are critical for efficiently recovering modified clones. Paired gRNAs and w...
متن کاملMouse Genome Engineering Using Designer Nucleases
Transgenic mice carrying site-specific genome modifications (knockout, knock-in) are of vital importance for dissecting complex biological systems as well as for modeling human diseases and testing therapeutic strategies. Recent advances in the use of designer nucleases such as zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs), transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), and the clustered regularly in...
