Testing performance of Cas9 activators
ثبت نشده
چکیده
library-preparation method that is not contaminated with chimeric reads with an algorithm called Structural Variant Search (SVS) that identifies SVs on the basis of split read alignment and elimination of germline variants. Using a cell line with known viral integration sites, which serve as a surrogate for SVs, they determined that SVS has a specificity of 95% at a sensitivity of 36%. The authors also show that the number of SVs increases after treatment of healthy primary cells with two clastogenic compounds. Brief Communication p584

Orthogonal Genetic Regulation in Human Cells Using Chemically Induced CRISPR/Cas9 Activators.
The concerted action of multiple genes in a time-dependent manner controls complex cellular phenotypes, yet the temporal regulation of gene expressions is restricted on a single-gene level, which limits our ability to control higher-order gene networks and understand the consequences of multiplex genetic perturbations. Here we developed a system for temporal regulation of multiple genes. This s...
متن کاملCrystal Structure of Staphylococcus aureus Cas9
The RNA-guided DNA endonuclease Cas9 cleaves double-stranded DNA targets with a protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) and complementarity to the guide RNA. Recently, we harnessed Staphylococcus aureus Cas9 (SaCas9), which is significantly smaller than Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 (SpCas9), to facilitate efficient in vivo genome editing. Here, we report the crystal structures of SaCas9 in complex with...
متن کاملMultiplex CRISPR/Cas9-based genome engineering from a single lentiviral vector
Engineered DNA-binding proteins that manipulate the human genome and transcriptome have enabled rapid advances in biomedical research. In particular, the RNA-guided CRISPR/Cas9 system has recently been engineered to create site-specific double-strand breaks for genome editing or to direct targeted transcriptional regulation. A unique capability of the CRISPR/Cas9 system is multiplex genome engi...
متن کاملChemical Control of a CRISPR-Cas9 Acetyltransferase.
Lysine acetyltransferases (KATs) play a critical role in the regulation of transcription and other genomic functions. However, a persistent challenge is the development of assays capable of defining KAT activity directly in living cells. Toward this goal, here we report the application of a previously reported dCas9-p300 fusion as a transcriptional reporter of KAT activity. First, we benchmark ...
متن کاملEffects of Various Activators on Bovine Embryonic Development Following Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection
The objective of this study was to compare the effectiveness of various combination activators of bovine oocyte following intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in terms of cleavage and embryo development. Bovine ICSI oocytes were treated with a variation of treatments of combined or single activators as follows; 30 V for 15 x 2 μsec of electrical pulse +10 μg/mL cycloheximide (CHX),7% ethanol...
