DNA double-strand break-free CRISPR interference delays Huntington’s disease progression in mice

Plasmids LentiCRISPRv2 (Addgene; 52961) was purchased from Addgene (Cambridge, MA, USA). For HTT gene suppression, LentiCRISPR v2 plasmid with U6 promoter driving sgRNA expression and EF-1 alpha promoter driving the expression of Puromycin-T2A-HA-NLS-dCas9-NLS (or Puromycin-T2A-Flag-NLS-Cas9-NLS) was used. The sgRNA-Cas9 and sgRNA-dCas9 constructs were generated by cloning the CAG repeat-targeting sgRNA…

chloramphenicol resistance

Using these strains, it is possible to integrate plasmids that carry the complementary ΦC31 att site onto the chromosome (attP, in this figure). Because the mtDNA codes for key OXPHOS polypeptides, genetic alterations in the mtDNA will affect energy metabolism. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1969 Jun;98(3):1248-57 eCollection…
