2 Entails the modification of specific genomic sequences in living cells for the purpose of determining, changing, or expanding their function(s) Occurs via the delivery of sequence specific designer nucleases Induce genome alterations through the production of double strand breaks Protein DNA interactions Zinc finger nucleases RNA DNA interactions RNA guided nucleases (CRISPR/Cas9) TALENs Maggio et al, Trends Biotechnol, 2015

3 Non homologous end joining Double strandbreak repair Synthesisdependent strand annealing

4 DSB Cleavage by nuclease NHEJ Repair NHEJ is error prone and can create small base insertions or deletions at the repair junction NHEJ at the same site on homologous chromosomes can result in different indels Useful for generating knock out alleles insertions or deletions (indels) Kim et al, Nat Rev Genet, 2014

5 Cleavage by nuclease Cleavage by two nuclease same chromosome DSB NHEJ Repair Two DSBs NHEJ Repair Interval deletions OR Interval inversions (Translocations single cuts on different chromosomes) insertions or deletions (indels) Kim et al, Nat Rev Genet, 2014

7 Easily designed and constructed High editing efficiency (up to 90% in cell lines) However, off target mutagenesis is an issue RNA guided nucleases (CRISPR/Cas9) Maggio et al, Trends Biotechnol, 2015 Kim et al, Nat Rev Genet, 2014

8 Bacterial adaptive immune response to phages Acquisition of phage DNA into the CRISPR locus between direct repeats (spacers) Non coding RNAs generated from spacers and direct repeats (RNA guides) Base pairing of RNA guide with homologous DNA targets Cas protein(s) Requirement of a protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) at target sites to cleave DNA In Type II CRISPR, one Cas protein (Cas9) creates a DNA double strand break Hsu et al, Cell, 2014

9 CRISPR RNA (crrna): Spacer: processed to a 20 base guide sequence Direct repeats: hybridizes to the tracrrna Trans activating CRISPR RNA (tracrrna): High 2 nd structure scaffold element for Cas9 association Cas9 forms a ribonucleoprotein complex with RNA guides; two nucleases generate a DSB between 17 th and 18 th base pairs PAM: Cas9 PAM is different between species Reviewed in Hsu et al, Cell, 2014

10 Single guide RNA (sgrna) crrna:tracrrna hybrid Consisting of a fused crrna and tracrrna 20bp of homology to a target site Codon optimized S. pyogenes Cas9; addition of a nuclear localization signal (NLS) S. pyogenes Cas9 PAM found every 8 12 bp in mammalian genomes Cong et al., Science, 2013 Mail et al., Science, 2013 Reviewed in Ran et al, Nat Protoc, 2014

36 Cas9 tolerates mismatches between sgrna and target sequence 8 12 bases of the sgrna closest to the PAM (3 end) generally define specificity Thus, your sgrna may guide Cas9 to other sites (off target sites) in the genome and induce a DSB that is repaired by NHEJ Mutagenesis of a gene or regulatory element may cause a phenotype not related to your on target mutagenesis event Ran et al, Nat Protoc, 2013

37 Rules for maximizing specificity of sgrnas 1. Minimize the number of off target sites followed by a PAM (NGG or NAG) 2. sgrnas with genomic off target sites with fewer than 3 mismatches should be avoided 3. Off target sites should have at least 2 mismatches in the 8 12 bases closest to the PAM 4. Mismatches in off target sites should be spaced less than 4 bases apart 5. Guides with 3 mismatches 6. Guides with top 5 10 off target sites on different chromosomes from the on target site Hsu et al., Nat Biotechnol 2013
