We describe a strategy to boost the efficiency of gene editing via homology-directed repair (HDR) by covalently modifying the template DNA with interstrand crosslinks. Crosslinked templates (xHDRTs) increase Cas9-mediated editing efficiencies by up to fivefold in K562, HEK293T, U2OS, iPS and primary T cells. Increased editing from xHDRTs is driven by events on the template molecule and requires ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related (ATR) kinase and components of the Fanconi anemia pathway.
我们描述了一种通过用链间交联共价修饰模板DNA来提高同源定向修复(HDR)基因编辑效率的策略。交联模板(xHDRTs)在K562、HEK293T、U2OS、诱导多能干细胞(iPS)和原代T细胞中可将Cas9介导的编辑效率提高多达五倍。xHDRTs编辑效率的提高是由模板分子上的事件驱动的,并且需要共济失调毛细血管扩张症和Rad3相关(ATR)激酶以及范可尼贫血途径的成分。
