Project description:CT26 cells expressing lentiviral Cas9 and sgRNAs targeting either control or Gna13 were transplanted into immunocompetent BALB/c mice. Tumors were harvested and processed for RNA-seq
Project description:We performed a large-scale genome-wide characterisation of indels generated following editing with CRISPR/Cas9. We used pools of sgRNAs and performed targeted capture and sequencing of the edited regions in HepG2 cells.
Project description:Since LAMC2 is a secreted molecule present in the extracellular matrix of the cells, was designed a strategy based on CRISPR/Cas9-mediated homologous recombination to mark LAMC2 cells in human PDACs. A Cas9 single-guide RNAs complementary to sequences overlapping the stop codon of the LAMC2 locus was designed and a donor vector that contained LAMC2 homology arms flanking an EGFP reporter cassette positioned immediately upstream of the stop codon was generated. LF2A self-cleavage peptide in frame with EGFP so that LAMC2-EGFP locus was expressed as a single mRNA was added, whereas the resulting polypeptide was cleaved in the two encoded proteins, LAMC2 and EGFP. L3.6pl and PANC-1 cells were nucleofected with the donor vector together with a guide-RNA-Cas9 (guide). The engineered cells were subcutaneously injected in CD1 male mice and RNA-seq was performed on LAMC2-EGFP+ and EGFP- -derived tumors.
Project description:rs2280381 is an autoimmune disease susceptible variant, which has been reported to be associated with SLE, RA and SSc. Genetic and epigenomic analysis indicate that the rs2280381-containing region is an enhancer region in monocyte. To test the function and regulated genes of the rs228381-containing region, we deleted the rs2280381 ~120bp sequence in U-937 cells, and performed the RNA-seq to detect the gene expression profiles.
Project description:rs2431697 is a SLE risk SNP, genetic and epigenomic analysis indicate that rs2431697-containing region is an enhancer region. To test the function and regulated genes of rs2431697-containing genes, we deleted rs2431697-containing region in U-937 cells, and performed the RNA-seq to detect the gene expression profiles.
