Journal ArticleDOI
Homology-mediated end joining-based targeted integration using CRISPR/Cas9
Xuan Yao,Xing Wang,Xinde Hu,Zhen Liu,Junlai Liu,Haibo Zhou,Xiaowen Shen,Yu Wei,Yu Wei,Zijian Huang,Wenqin Ying,Yan Wang,Yanhong Nie,Chen-Chen Zhang,Sanlan Li,Leping Cheng,Qifang Wang,Yan Wu,Pengyu Huang,Qiang Sun,Linyu Shi,Hui Yang +21 more
TL;DR: A homology-mediated end joining (HMEJ)-based strategy is devised, using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated cleavage of both transgene donor vector that contains guide RNA target sites and ∼800 bp of homology arms, and the targeted genome, with an efficiency much greater than HR-, NHEJ- and MMEJ-based strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vivo simultaneous transcriptional activation of multiple genes in the brain using CRISPR-dCas9-activator transgenic mice
Haibo Zhou,Junlai Liu,Junlai Liu,Changyang Zhou,Ni Gao,Zhiping Rao,He Li,Xinde Hu,Changlin Li,Xuan Yao,Xiaowen Shen,Yidi Sun,Yu Wei,Fei Liu,Wenqin Ying,Junming Zhang,Cheng Tang,Xu Zhang,Hua-Tai Xu,Linyu Shi,Leping Cheng,Pengyu Huang,Hui Yang +22 more
TL;DR: A transgenic mouse is generated using an improved dCas9 system that enables simultaneous and precise in vivo transcriptional activation of multiple genes and long noncoding RNAs in the nervous system and is able to use targeted activation of endogenous neurogenic genes in these transgenic mice to directly and efficiently convert astrocytes into functional neurons in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI
CRISPR/Cas9 – Mediated Precise Targeted Integration In Vivo Using a Double Cut Donor with Short Homology Arms
Xuan Yao,Xing Wang,Junlai Liu,Junlai Liu,Xinde Hu,Linyu Shi,Xiaowen Shen,Wenqin Ying,Xinyao Sun,Xin Wang,Xin Wang,Pengyu Huang,Hui Yang +12 more
TL;DR: A microhomology-mediated end-joining (MMEJ)-based strategy for precisely targeted gene integration in transfected neurons and hepatocytes in vivo with efficiencies up to 20%, much higher than HDR-based strategy in adult mouse tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disruption of splicing-regulatory elements using CRISPR/Cas9 to rescue spinal muscular atrophy in human iPSCs and mice.
Jin-Jing Li,Xiang Lin,Cheng Tang,Ying-Qian Lu,Xinde Hu,Erwei Zuo,He Li,Wenqin Ying,Yidi Sun,Lu-Lu Lai,Hai-Zhu Chen,Xin-Xin Guo,Qi-Jie Zhang,Shuang Wu,Changyang Zhou,Xiaowen Shen,Qifang Wang,Min-Ting Lin,Lixiang Ma,Ning Wang,Adrian R. Krainer,Linyu Shi,Hui Yang,Wan-Jin Chen +23 more
TL;DR: This study provides proof-of-principle for a new strategy to therapeutically intervene in SMA and other RNA-splicing-related diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endogenous promoter-driven sgRNA for monitoring the expression of low-abundance transcripts and lncRNAs
Ni Gao,Jing Hu,Bingbing He,Zhengbang Ji,Xinde Hu,Jia Huang,Yu Wei,Jianpeng Peng,Yinghui Wei,Yingsi Zhou,Xiaowen Shen,He Li,Xue Feng,Qingquan Xiao,Linyu Shi,Yidi Sun,Changyang Zhou,Haibo Zhou,Hui Yang +18 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a generalizable endogenous transcription-gated switch that releases single-guide RNAs in the presence of an endogenous promoter, which provides a powerful platform to sense the activity of endogenous genetic elements underlying cellular functions.
