Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeat/Cas12a Mediated Multiplexable and Portable Detection Platform for GII Genotype Porcine Epidemic Diarrhoea Virus Rapid Diagnosis.

ABSTRACT: Porcine epidemic diarrhoea virus (PEDV) is a member of the genus Alphacoronavirus in the family Coronaviridae. It causes acute watery diarrhoea and vomiting in piglets with high a mortality rate. Currently, the GII genotype, PEDV, possesses a high separation rate in wild strains and is usually reported in immunity failure cases, which indicates a need for a portable and sensitive detection method. Here, reverse transcription-recombinase aided amplification (RT-RAA) was combined with the Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeat (CRISPR)/Cas12a system to establish a multiplexable, rapid and portable detection platform for PEDV. The CRISPR RNA (crRNA) against Spike (S) gene of GII PEDV specifically were added into the protocol. This system is suitable for different experimental conditions, including ultra-sensitive fluorescence, visual, UV light, or flow strip detection. Moreover, it exhibits high sensitivity and specificity and can detect at least 100 copies of the target gene in each reaction. The CRISPR/Cas12a detection platform requires less time and represents a rapid, reliable and practical tool for the rapid diagnosis of GII genotype PEDV.

CRISPRcompar: a website to compare clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats.

Project description:Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) elements are a particular family of tandem repeats present in prokaryotic genomes, in almost all archaea and in about half of bacteria, and which participate in a mechanism of acquired resistance against phages. They consist in a succession of direct repeats (DR) of 24-47 bp separated by similar sized unique sequences (spacers). In the large majority of cases, the direct repeats are highly conserved, while the number and nature of the spacers are often quite diverse, even among strains of a same species. Furthermore, the acquisition of new units (DR + spacer) was shown to happen almost exclusively on one side of the locus. Therefore, the CRISPR presents an interesting genetic marker for comparative and evolutionary analysis of closely related bacterial strains. CRISPRcompar is a web service created to assist biologists in the CRISPR typing process. Two tools facilitates the in silico investigation: CRISPRcomparison and CRISPRtionary. This website is freely accessible at http://crispr.u-psud.fr/CRISPRcompar/.

CRISPRFinder: a web tool to identify clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats.

Project description:Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPRs) constitute a particular family of tandem repeats found in a wide range of prokaryotic genomes (half of eubacteria and almost all archaea). They consist of a succession of highly conserved regions (DR) varying in size from 23 to 47 bp, separated by similarly sized unique sequences (spacer) of usually viral origin. A CRISPR cluster is flanked on one side by an AT-rich sequence called the leader and assumed to be a transcriptional promoter. Recent studies suggest that this structure represents a putative RNA-interference-based immune system. Here we describe CRISPRFinder, a web service offering tools to (i) detect CRISPRs including the shortest ones (one or two motifs); (ii) define DRs and extract spacers; (iii) get the flanking sequences to determine the leader; (iv) blast spacers against Genbank database and (v) check if the DR is found elsewhere in prokaryotic sequenced genomes. CRISPRFinder is freely accessible at http://crispr.u-psud.fr/Server/CRISPRfinder.php.

Sensitive Detection of KRAS Mutations by Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats.

Project description:Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene (KRAS) is the isoform most frequently mutated in human tumors. Testing for activating KRAS mutations has important implications for diagnosis and the personalized medicine of cancers. The current techniques for detecting KRAS mutations have moderate sensitivity. The emerging clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) system shows great promise in the detection of nucleic acids and is revolutionizing medical diagnostics. This study aimed to develop CRISPR-Cas12a as a sensitive test to detect KRAS mutations. Serially diluted DNA samples containing KRAS mutations are subjected to CRISPR-Cas12a and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). CRISPR-Cas12a and PCR can specifically detect 0.01% and 0.1% mutant KRAS DNA in the presence of wild-type KRAS DNA, respectively. Twenty pairs of lung tumor and noncancerous lung tissues are tested by CRISPR-Cas12a, PCR, and direct sequencing. CRISPR-Cas12a could identify the G12C mutation in five of 20 tumor tissues, while both PCR and direct sequencing discovered the KRAS mutation in three of the five tumor tissues. Furthermore, the results of CRISPR-Cas12a for testing the mutation could be directly and immediately visualized by a UV light illuminator. Altogether, CRISPR-Cas12a has a higher sensitivity for the detection of KRAS mutations compared with PCR and sequencing analysis, and thus has diagnostic and therapeutic implications. Nevertheless, the technique needs to be validated for its clinical significance in a large and prospective study.

Insight into microevolution of Yersinia pestis by clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Yersinia pestis, the pathogen of plague, has greatly influenced human history on a global scale. Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeat (CRISPR), an element participating in immunity against phages' invasion, is composed of short repeated sequences separated by unique spacers and provides the basis of the spoligotyping technology. In the present research, three CRISPR loci were analyzed in 125 strains of Y. pestis from 26 natural plague foci of China, the former Soviet Union and Mongolia were analyzed, for validating CRISPR-based genotyping method and better understanding adaptive microevolution of Y. pestis. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Using PCR amplification, sequencing and online data processing, a high degree of genetic diversity was revealed in all three CRISPR elements. The distribution of spacers and their arrays in Y. pestis strains is strongly region and focus-specific, allowing the construction of a hypothetic evolutionary model of Y. pestis. This model suggests transmission route of microtus strains that encircled Takla Makan Desert and ZhunGer Basin. Starting from Tadjikistan, one branch passed through the Kunlun Mountains, and moved to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Another branch went north via the Pamirs Plateau, the Tianshan Mountains, the Altai Mountains and the Inner Mongolian Plateau. Other Y. pestis lineages might be originated from certain areas along those routes. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: CRISPR can provide important information for genotyping and evolutionary research of bacteria, which will help to trace the source of outbreaks. The resulting data will make possible the development of very low cost and high-resolution assays for the systematic typing of any new isolate.

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats as an advanced treatment for Parkinson's disease.

Project description:Recently, genome-editing technology like clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9 has improved the translational gap in the treatments mediated through gene therapy. The advantages of the CRISPR system, such as, work in the living cells and tissues, candidate this technique for the employing in experiments and the therapy of central nervous system diseases. Parkinson's disease (PD) is a widespread, disabling, neurodegenerative disease induced by dopaminergic neuron loss and linked to progressive motor impairment. Pathophysiological basis knowledge of PD has modified the PD classification model and expresses in the sporadic and familial types. Analyses of the earliest genetic linkage have shown in PD the inclusion of synuclein alpha (SNCA) genomic duplication and SNCA mutations in the familial types of PD pathogenesis. This review analyzes the structure, development, and function in genome editing regulated through the CRISPR/Cas9. Also, it explains the genes associated with PD pathogenesis and the appropriate modifications to favor PD. This study follows the direction by understanding the PD linking analyses in which the CRISPR technique is applied. Finally, this study explains the limitations and future trends of CRISPR service in relation to the genome-editing process in PD patients' induced pluripotent stem cells.

Utilization of Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats to Genotype Escherichia coli Serogroup O80.

Project description:The hypervariable nature of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPRs) makes them valuable biomarkers for subtyping and epidemiological investigation of Escherichia coli. Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) serogroup O80 is one hybrid pathotype that is emerging recently in Europe and is involved in hemolytic uremic syndrome with bacteremia. However, whether STEC O80 strains can be genotyped using CRISPR has not been evaluated. In this study, we aimed to characterize the genetic diversity of 81 E. coli serogroup O80 isolates deposited in the National Center for Biotechnology Information databases using CRISPR typing and to explore the association between virulence potential and CRISPR types (CTs). A total of 21 CTs were identified in 80 O80 strains. CRISRP typing provided discrimination with variants of a single serotype, which suggested a stronger discriminatory power. Based on CRISPR spacer profiles, 70 O80:H2 isolates were further divided into four lineages (lineage LI, LII, LIII, and LIV), which correlated well with whole-genome single nucleotide polymorphisms typing and virulence gene profiles. Moreover, the association between CRISPR lineages and virulence gene profiles hinted that STEC O80:H2 strains may originate from O80:H19 or O80:H26 and that lineage LI may have been evolved from lineage LII. CT2 and CT13 were shared by human and cattle isolates, suggesting that there might be the potential transmission between cattle and human. Collectively, CRISPR typing is one technology that can be used to monitor the transmission of STEC O80 strains and provide new insights into microevolution of serogroup O80.

Rapid and Sensitive Detection of SARS-CoV-2 Using Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats.

Project description:Rapid and accurate detection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is essential for controlling the pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based technique is the standard test for detection of SARS-CoV-2, which, however, requires complicated sample manipulation (e.g., RNA extraction) and is time-consuming. We previously demonstrated that clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) could precisely detect Human papillomavirus and somatic mutations of Epidermal growth factor receptor gene and Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog gene in plasma. The objective of this study was to develop CRISPR as a rapid test for sensitive detection of SARS-CoV-2. We first combined reverse transcription-isothermal recombinase polymerase amplification and CRSIPR to detect SARS-CoV-2 in genomic RNA of cells infected with the virus. The CRISPR assay with guide RNA against the M gene of SARS-CoV-2 had a sensitivity of 0.1 copies per µL for detection of the virus. We then used the CRSIPR assay to directly analyze raw SARS-CoV-2 samples. The CRISPR assay could sensitively detect SARS-CoV-2 in one hour without RNA extraction. This assay can be performed at a single temperature and with minimal equipment. The results were immediately visualized either by a UV light illuminator or paper strips. The diagnostic value of the test was confirmed in nasopharyngeal swab specimens. Altogether, we have developed a rapid CRISPR test for sensitive detection of SARS-CoV-2.

Interference by clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) RNA is governed by a seed sequence.

Project description:Prokaryotic clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/Cas (CRISPR-associated sequences) systems provide adaptive immunity against viruses when a spacer sequence of small CRISPR RNA (crRNA) matches a protospacer sequence in the viral genome. Viruses that escape CRISPR/Cas resistance carry point mutations in protospacers, though not all protospacer mutations lead to escape. Here, we show that in the case of Escherichia coli subtype CRISPR/Cas system, the requirements for crRNA matching are strict only for a seven-nucleotide seed region of a protospacer immediately following the essential protospacer-adjacent motif. Mutations in the seed region abolish CRISPR/Cas mediated immunity by reducing the binding affinity of the crRNA-guided Cascade complex to protospacer DNA. We propose that the crRNA seed sequence plays a role in the initial scanning of invader DNA for a match, before base pairing of the full-length spacer occurs, which may enhance the protospacer locating efficiency of the E. coli Cascade complex. In agreement with this proposal, single or multiple mutations within the protospacer but outside the seed region do not lead to escape. The relaxed specificity of the CRISPR/Cas system limits escape possibilities and allows a single crRNA to effectively target numerous related viruses.

A novel family of sequence-specific endoribonucleases associated with the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats.

Project description:Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPRs) together with the associated CAS proteins protect microbial cells from invasion by foreign genetic elements using presently unknown molecular mechanisms. All CRISPR systems contain proteins of the CAS2 family, suggesting that these uncharacterized proteins play a central role in this process. Here we show that the CAS2 proteins represent a novel family of endoribonucleases. Six purified CAS2 proteins from diverse organisms cleaved single-stranded RNAs preferentially within U-rich regions. A representative CAS2 enzyme, SSO1404 from Sulfolobus solfataricus, cleaved the phosphodiester linkage on the 3'-side and generated 5'-phosphate- and 3'-hydroxyl-terminated oligonucleotides. The crystal structure of SSO1404 was solved at 1.6A resolution revealing the first ribonuclease with a ferredoxin-like fold. Mutagenesis of SSO1404 identified six residues (Tyr-9, Asp-10, Arg-17, Arg-19, Arg-31, and Phe-37) that are important for enzymatic activity and suggested that Asp-10 might be the principal catalytic residue. Thus, CAS2 proteins are sequence-specific endoribonucleases, and we propose that their role in the CRISPR-mediated anti-phage defense might involve degradation of phage or cellular mRNAs.

Lactobacillus buchneri genotyping on the basis of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) locus diversity.

Project description:Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) in combination with associated sequences (cas) constitute the CRISPR-Cas immune system, which uptakes DNA from invasive genetic elements as novel "spacers" that provide a genetic record of immunization events. We investigated the potential of CRISPR-based genotyping of Lactobacillus buchneri, a species relevant for commercial silage, bioethanol, and vegetable fermentations. Upon investigating the occurrence and diversity of CRISPR-Cas systems in Lactobacillus buchneri genomes, we observed a ubiquitous occurrence of CRISPR arrays containing a 36-nucleotide (nt) type II-A CRISPR locus adjacent to four cas genes, including the universal cas1 and cas2 genes and the type II signature gene cas9. Comparative analysis of CRISPR spacer content in 26 L. buchneri pickle fermentation isolates associated with spoilage revealed 10 unique locus genotypes that contained between 9 and 29 variable spacers. We observed a set of conserved spacers at the ancestral end, reflecting a common origin, as well as leader-end polymorphisms, reflecting recent divergence. Some of these spacers showed perfect identity with phage sequences, and many spacers showed homology to Lactobacillus plasmid sequences. Following a comparative analysis of sequences immediately flanking protospacers that matched CRISPR spacers, we identified a novel putative protospacer-adjacent motif (PAM), 5'-AAAA-3'. Overall, these findings suggest that type II-A CRISPR-Cas systems are valuable for genotyping of L. buchneri.
