Project description:Prime editing is a powerful means of introducing precise changes to specific locations in mammalian genomes. However, the widely varying efficiency of prime editing across target sites of interest has limited its adoption in the context of both basic research and clinical settings. Here, we set out to exhaustively characterize the impact of the cis-chromatin environment on prime editing efficiency. Utilizing a newly developed and highly sensitive method for mapping the genomic locations of a randomly integrated “sensor”, we identify specific epigenetic features that strongly correlate with the highly variable efficiency of prime editing across different genomic locations. Next, to assess the interaction of trans-acting factors with the cis-chromatin environment, we develop and apply a pooled genetic screening approach with which the impact of knocking down various DNA repair factors on prime editing efficiency can be stratified by cis-chromatin context. Finally, we demonstrate that we can dramatically modulate the efficiency of prime editing through epigenome editing, i.e. enhancing (or restricting) local chromatin accessibility in order to increase (or decrease) the efficiency of prime editing at a target site. Looking forward, we envision that the insights and tools described here will broaden the range of both basic research and therapeutic contexts in which prime editing is useful.

Project description:The efficiency and outcome of CRISPR/Cas9 editing depends on the chromatin state at the cut site. It has been shown that changing the chromatin state can influence both the efficiency and repair outcome, and epigenetic drugs have been used to improve Cas9 editing. However, because the target proteins of these drugs are not homogeneously distributed across the genome, the efficacy of these drugs may be expected to vary from locus to locus. Here, we systematically analyzed this chromatin context-dependency for 160 epigenetic drugs. We used a human cell line with 19 stably integrated reporters to induce a double-stranded break in different chromatin environments. We then measured Cas9 editing efficiency and repair pathway usage by sequencing the mutational signatures. We identified 58 drugs that modulate Cas9 editing efficiency and/or repair outcome dependent on the local chromatin environment. For example, we find a subset of histone deacetylase inhibitors that improve Cas9 editing efficiency throughout all types of heterochromatin (e.g. PCI-24781), while others were only effective in euchromatin and H3K27me3-marked regions (e.g. apicidin). In summary, this study reveals that most epigenetic drugs alter CRISPR editing in a chromatin-dependent manner, and provides a resource to improve Cas9 editing more selectively at the desired location.

Project description:We sought to find if epigenetic drugs had chromatin context-dependent effects on CRISPR-Cas9 efficiency and DNA double-strand break repair. We performed a multiplexed drug screen in a reporter cell line containing 19 sequencing based pathway reporters. This submission contains high throughput sequencing data of the pathway reporters, their mapping and mutation readout. It also contains the raw pA-DamID data for H3K27me3, H3K9me2, H3K9me3 and "Dam-only" samples in RPE-1 cells.
