ABSTRACT: Here we report successful gene knock-in (KI) in the eggs of Schistosoma mansoni by combining CRISPR/Cas9 with single-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides (ssODNs). We targeted the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) gene of S. mansoni using two synthetic guide RNAs (gRNAs), X5 and X7, respectively. Liver eggs of S. mansoni were exposed to CRISPR-vector containing X5 or X7 by electroporation. Simultaneously, eggs were transfected with a ssODN donor encoding a stop codon in all six frames. Next generation sequencing analysis revealed that CRISPR/Cas9-mediated editing in S. mansoni eggs resulted in Homology-Directed Repair (HDR) when template DNA ssODN provided. Furthermore, soluble egg antigen (SEA) from AChE-modified eggs exhibited markedly reduced AChE activity compared with controls, indicative that programmed Cas9 cleavage mutated the AChE gene. Following injection of modified schistosome eggs into the tail veins of mice, a significant decrease in granuloma size in the lungs of these animals. Notably, an enhanced Th2 response induced by eggs in lung, and splenocytes small intestine-draining mesenteric lymph node cells was also generated in mice injected with X5-KI eggs in different methods. These findings further demonstrate the power and utility of CRISPR/Cas9-based genome editing for undertaking functional genomics studies in schistosomes.

A multi-functional AAV-CRISPR-Cas9 and its host response

Project description:CRISPR-Cas9 delivery by AAV holds promise for gene therapy but faces critical barriers due to its potential immunogenicity and limited payload capacity. Here, we demonstrate genome engineering in postnatal mice using AAV-split-Cas9, a multi-functional platform customizable for genome-editing, transcriptional regulation, and other previously impracticable AAV-CRISPR-Cas9 applications. We identify crucial parameters that impact efficacy and clinical translation of our platform, including viral biodistribution, editing efficiencies in various organs, antigenicity, immunological reactions, and physiological outcomes. These results reveal that AAV-CRISPR-Cas9 evokes host responses with distinct cellular and molecular signatures, but unlike alternative delivery methods, does not induce detectable cellular damage in vivo. Our study provides a foundation for developing effective genome therapeutics mRNA-Seq from muscles (9 samples; 3 mice x 3 conditions) and lymph nodes (9 samples; 3 mice x 3 conditions).

Long-term maintenance of dystrophin expression and resistance to injury of skeletal muscle in gene-edited mice

Project description:Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a lethal muscle disease caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene. CRISPR/Cas9 genome-editing has been used to correct DMD mutations in animal models at young ages. However, the longevity and durability of CRISPR/Cas9 editing remained to be determined. To address these issues, we subjected DEx44 DMD mice to systemic delivery of AAV9 expressing CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing components to reframe exon 45 of the dystrophin gene, allowing robust dystrophin expression and maintenance of muscle structure and function. We showed that genome correction by CRISPR/Cas9 confers lifelong expression of dystrophin in mice and that corrected skeletal muscle is highly durable and resistant to myofiber necrosis and fibrosis, even in response to chronic injury. In contrast, when muscle fibers were ablated by barium chloride injection, satellite cells were unable to restore dystrophin expression due to restriction of gene editing components. Analysis of on-target and off-target gene editing in aged mice confirmed the stability of gene correction and the lack of significant off-target editing at 18 months of age. These findings demonstrate the long-term durability of CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing as a therapy for maintaining the integrity and function of DMD muscle, even under conditions of stress.

Genome-wide binding of the CRISPR endonuclease Cas9 in mammalian cells

Project description:The bacterial CRISPR-Cas9 system has been widely adapted for RNA-guided genome editing and gene regulation in diverse organisms yet its in vivo target specificity is poorly understood. Here we provide the first genome-wide binding maps of nuclease-deactivated Cas9 loaded with guide RNAs in mammalian cells. We find a 5-nucleotide seed region in the guide RNA targets Cas9 to thousands of sites in the genome. Chromatin accessibility limits binding to the other hundreds of thousands sites with matching seed sequences, and consequently 70% of off-target binding sites are associated with genes. U-rich seeds have low numbers of off-target sites limited by both low guide RNA abundance and scarcity of complimentary sites in accessible chromatin. Unexpectedly, off-target sites show little evidence of cleavage, supporting a two-state model reminiscent of eukaryotic RNAi machinery where a short seed match triggers binding but extensive pairing is required for cleavage. ChIP-seq of HA-dCas9 loaded with 4 sgRNAs (Phc1-sg1, Phc1-sg2, Nanog-sg2, and Nanog-sg3) in mouse, and 2 sgRNAs in human (EMX1-sg1 and EMX1-sg3)

Project description:CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing is widely used to study gene function, from basic biology to biomedical research. Structural rearrangements are a ubiquitous feature of cancer cells and their impact on the functional consequences of CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing has not yet been assessed. Utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screens for 250 cancer cell lines, we demonstrate that targeting structurally rearranged regions, in particular tandem or interspersed amplifications, is highly detrimental to cellular fitness in a gene independent manner. In contrast, amplifications caused by whole chromosomal duplications have little to no impact on fitness. This effect is cell line specific and dependent on the ploidy status. We devise a copy-number ratio metric that substantially improves the detection of gene-independent cell fitness effects in CRISPR-Cas9 screens. Furthermore, we develop a computational tool, called Crispy, to account for these effects on a single sample basis and provide corrected gene fitness effects. Our analysis demonstrates the importance of structural rearrangements in mediating the effect of CRISPR-Cas9-induced DNA damage, with implications for the use of CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing in cancer cells.

CRISPR/Cas9/AAV9-sgRNA Mediated In Vivo Genome Editing Reveals the Indispensability of Myc During Muscle Stem Cells Activation by Remodeling the 3D Chromatin [DEEP-seq(MyoD&Myc&Bcl6&Pknox2)]

Project description:Skeletal muscle satellite cells (SCs) are muscle stem cells responsible for muscle development and injury induced muscle regeneration. The pace of SC related study, however, is constrained partially by the technological limitations in generating genetically modified mice. Although the ease of use of CRISPR-Cas9 in genome manipulation has been documented in many cell lines and various species, its application in endogenous SCs remains elusive. In this study, we generated muscle-specific Cas9-expressing mice and achieved robust in vivo genome editing in juvenile SCs at the postnatal stage through AAV9 mediated short guide RNAs (sgRNAs) delivery. We also found adult quiescent SCs are reluctant to CRISPR/Cas9 editing despite efficient AAV9 transduction. To edit juvenile SCs in vivo, as a proof-of-concept, we delivered sgRNAs targeting MyoD, a key gene critical for muscle physiology and showed an efficient editing at MyoD locus, resulting in accumulation of SCs and defects in SCs differentiation which resembled the phenotypes reported in MyoD knockout mice. Further application of this system on potential key transcription factors (TFs) involved in SC fate transition, Myc, Bcl6 and Pknox2, unveiled their distinct functions in the early stage of SC activation and injury induced muscle regeneration. In addition, we revealed that Myc orchestrated SCs activation through impinging on 3D chromatin architecture. Altogether we established a robust muscle restricted CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing platform in endogenous SCs and elucidated the functionality of key factors governing SC activities.
