DNA epigenome editing using CRISPR-Cas SunTag-directed DNMT3A [WGBS]
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We demonstrate that dCas9-SunTag-DNMT3A dramatically increased CpG methylation at the HOXA5 locus in human embryonic kidney 293T cells (HEK293T). Furthermore, using a single sgRNA, dCas9-SunTag-DNMT3A was able to methylate a 4.5 kb genomic region and repress HOXA5 gene expression. Reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) and RNA-seq showed that dCas9-SunTag-DNMT3A methylated regions of interest with minimal impact on the global DNA methylome and transcriptome.
