Project description:Precise genome editing is crucial for establishing isogenic human disease models and ex vivo stem cell therapy from the patient-derived human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). Unlike Cas9-mediated knock-in, cytosine base editor (CBE) and prime editor (PE) achieve the desirable gene correction without inducing DNA double strand breaks. However, hPSCs possess highly active DNA repair pathways and are particularly susceptible to p53-dependent cell death. These unique characteristics impede the efficiency of gene editing in hPSCs. Here, we demonstrate that dual inhibition of p53-mediated cell death and distinct activation of the DNA damage repair system upon DNA damage by CBE or PE additively enhanced editing efficiency in hPSCs. The BE4stem system comprised of dominant negative p53 (p53DD) and three UNG inhibitor (UGI), engineered to specifically diminish base excision repair (BER), improved CBE efficiency in hPSCs. Addition of dominant negative MLH1 to inhibit mismatch repair activity and p53DD in the conventional PE system also significantly enhanced PE efficiency in hPSCs. Thus, combined inhibition of the unique cellular cascades engaged in hPSCs upon gene editing could significantly enhance precise genome editing in these cells.

Project description:Genome-wide knockout or knockdown screens have become powerful tools for the investigation of genotype-to-phenotype relationships. In bacteria, these screens commonly rely on transcriptional repression by dCas9, gene knockouts through Cas9 editing or random transposon mutagenesis, but depending on the technique, suffer from incomplete gene silencing, low editing efficiencies or they require massive library sizes. Here, we take a distinct approach with base editing to introduce premature stop codons or mutate start codons in Escherichia coli using a ScCas9 nickase derived base editor (ScBE3) that exhibits flexible PAM recognition. We then derive guide design rules by applying machine learning to a gene essentiality screen conducted in E. coli. For further improvement, we combined base-editing with Cas9-induced cleavage of the unedited cell fraction. The efficiency of this dual system was validated through a screen of conditionally essential E. coli genes. This improved setup that decouples the gene editing from the screening leads to more efficient guide depletion and confirmed previously published conditionally essential genes. Overall, base editing represents a useful tool for genome-wide knockout screens in bacteria and will eventually enable genome-wide knockout screens in a broader range of bacterial species to study their diverse genetics.

Project description:Even the latest generation of base editor (BE3) causes unwanted indels and non-C-to-T substitutions, compromising the fidelity of base editing outcome. Here we report a enhanced base editing system. The enhanced base edting system decreased the formation of unintended indels and C-to-A/C-to-G substitutions, and increased the frequency of desired C-to-T substitution, thereby improving both the accuracy and efficiency of base editing.

Project description:Nonsense mutations, responsible for ~11% of genetic diseases, create premature stop codons (PTCs) and lead to truncated and often non-functional proteins. Recently, programmable RNA pseudouridylation has emerged as a new type of RNA base editor to suppress PTCs. However, current methods suffer from low efficiency and limited precision. Here, we develop RESTART v3, an updated version of RESTART, which utilizes near-cognate tRNAs to improve the readthrough efficiency of pseudouridine-modified PTCs. We show an average of ~5-fold higher editing efficiency than RESTART v2 in cultured cells, currently the most active RNA pseudouridylation tool to mediate PTC readthrough. Moreover, RESTART v3 achieves functional PTC readthrough in disease cell models of cystic fibrosis and Hurler syndrome. Furthermore, RESTART v3 enables accurate incorporation of the original amino acid for nearly half of the PTC sites, considering the naturally occurring frequencies of sense to nonsense codons. In line with the benign off-target effect of RESTART, RESTART v3 does not change the coding information nor the expression level of transcripts with off-target editing; except for the specifically overexpressed tRNA molecule, it does not alter the expression level of endogenous tRNA pool. Overall, RESTART v3 represents an enhanced RNA base editor with increased efficiency and accuracy.

Project description:Proteins are key molecular players in a cell, and their abundance is extensively regulated not just at the level of gene expression but also post-transcriptionally. Here, we describe a genetic screen in yeast that enables systematic characterization of how protein abundance regulation is encoded in the genome. The screen combines a CRISPR/Cas9 base editor to introduce point mutations with fluorescent tagging of endogenous proteins to facilitate a flow-cytometric readout. We first benchmarked base editor performance in yeast with individual gRNAs as well as in positive and negative selection screens. We then examined the effects of 16,452 genetic perturbations on the abundance of eleven proteins representing a variety of cellular functions. We uncovered hundreds of regulatory relationships, including a novel link between the GAPDH isoenzymes Tdh1/2/3 and the Ras/PKA pathway. Many of the identified regulators are specific to one of the eleven proteins, but we also found genes that, upon perturbation, affected the abundance of most of the tested proteins. While the more specific regulators usually act transcriptionally, broad regulators often have roles in protein translation. Overall, our novel screening approach provides unprecedented insights into the components, scale and connectedness of the protein regulatory network.

Project description:Techniques for exclusion of exons from mature transcripts have been applied as gene therapies for treating many different diseases. Since exon skipping has been traditionally accomplished using technologies that have a transient effect, it is particularly important to develop new techniques that enable permanent exon skipping. We have recently demonstrated that this can be accomplished using cytidine base editors for permanently disabling the splice acceptor of target exons. We now demonstrate the application of adenine-deaminase base editors to disrupt the conserved adenosine within splice acceptor sites for programmable exon skipping. We also demonstrate that by altering the amino acid sequence of the linker between the adenosine deaminase domain and the Cas9 nickase or by coupling the adenine base editor with a uracil glycosylase inhibitor, the DNA editing efficiency and exon skipping rates improve significantly. Finally, we developed a split base editor architecture compatible with adeno-associated viral packaging. Collectively, these results represent significant progress towards permanent in vivo exon skipping through base editing and, ultimately, a new modality of gene therapy for the treatment of genetic diseases.
