| 1 | CRISPR/Cas9 and Genome Editing in Drosophila显示文摘Recent advances in our ability to design DNA binding factors with specificity for desired sequences have resulted in a revolution in genetic engineering, enabling directed changes to the genome to be made relatively easily. Traditional techniques for generating genetic mutations in most organisms have relied on selection from large pools of randomly induced mutations for those of particular interest, or time-consuming gene targeting by homologous recombination. Drosophila melanogaster has always been at the forefront of genetic analysis, and application of these new genome editing techniques to this organism will revolutionise our approach to performing analysis of gene function in the future. We discuss the recent techniques that apply the CRISPR/Cas9 system to Drosophila, highlight potential uses for this technology and speculate upon the future of genome engineering in this model organism. | Andrew R.Bassett Ji-Long Liu | 2014 | Journal of Genetics and Genomics2014,41,1: | 32 |
| 2 | A Genome-Wide CRISPR Library for High-Throughput Genetic Screening in Drosophila Cells显示文摘The simplicity of the CRISPR/Cas9 system of genome engineering has opened up the possibility of performing genome-wide targeted mutagenesis in cell lines,enabling screening for cellular phenotypes resulting from genetic aberrations.Drosophila cells have proven to be highly effective in identifying genes involved in cellular processes through similar screens using partial knockdown by RNAi.This is in part due to the lower degree of redundancy between genes in this organism,whilst still maintaining highly conserved gene networks and orthologs of many human disease-causing genes.The ability of CRISPR to generate genetic loss of function mutations not only increases the magnitude of any effect over currently employed RNAi techniques,but allows analysis over longer periods of time which can be critical for certain phenotypes.In this study,we have designed and built a genome-wide CRISPR library covering 13,501 genes,among which 8989 genes are targeted by three or more independent single guide RNAs(sg RNAs).Moreover,we describe strategies to monitor the population of guide RNAs by high throughput sequencing(HTS).We hope that this library will provide an invaluable resource for the community to screen loss of function mutations for cellular phenotypes,and as a source of guide RNA designs for future studies. | Andrew R.Bassett Lesheng Kong Ji-Long Liu | 2015 | Journal of Genetics and Genomics2015,42,6: | 5 |
