Project description:CRISPR-based loss-of-function screens have been proven powerful to identify genetic regulators in mammalian cells, but current approaches for single guide RNA (sgRNA) library construction are expensive and difficult to be adapted in most laboratories. Here, we present a Molecular Chipper technology for inexpensive and easily customizable sgRNA library generation, and a proof-of-principle screen that identifies novel cis-regulatory regions for miR-142 biogenesis. This method will be useful for functional interrogation of non-coding elements in mammalian genomes
Project description:We performed a focused CRISPR in KRAS mutant lung cancer cells (A549) using a minipool sgRNA library targeting 80 lung cancer specific tumor suppressor genes and 12 control genes. This screen identified tumor suppressor genes regulated by Uhrf1 in KRAS mutant lung cancer.
Project description:Illumina sequencing data used in HIV-CRISPR screen with an ISG-specific sgRNA library (PIKAHIV) to find genes that block infection by the N74D and P90A HIV-1 capsid mutant viruses in THP-1 monocytic cells. For more information on the library and approach see Ohainle et al. eLife 2018 (PMID: 30520725). All screens performed here were done in a clonal ZAP-KO cell line (ZAP may inhibit the HIV-CRISPR vector used in the screen). Here we screen the Cyclophilin A-binding deficient mutant P90A and the CPSF6-binding deficient mutant N74D together with a wild type HIV-1 virus. The N74D screen was performed both with IFN treatment and without. These two HIV-1 capsid mutant viruses are hypersensitive to the effects of IFN.
Project description:To identify host factors that restrict HIV replication, we conducted a CRISPR activation screen in a susceptible T cell line using a high-complexity, genome-wide sgRNA library. Our results identified host factors that conferred protection from HIV infection.
Project description:By a robust unbiased ChIP-seq approach, we demonstrated that CRISPR/Cas9 had crRNA-specific off-target binding activities in human genome. However, most of those binding off-targets could not be efficiently cleaved both in vivo and in vitro which suggested the cleavage off-target activity of CRISPR/Cas9 in human genome is very limited. We provided a valuable tool to further investigate the molecular mechanism of CRISPR/Cas9 and to optimize its in vivo targeting sgRNA binding sites were identified with ChipSeq by using GFP antibody (there are 2 replicates for egfa-t1 sgRNA,emx1 sgRNA and control without sgRNA in Hek293T cells, one egfa-t1 sgRNA,emx1 sgRNA and control without sgRNA in HeLaS3 cells)
