CREditing: a tool for gene tuning in Trypanosoma cruzi

Abstract: This is a PDF file of an article that has undergone enhancements after acceptance, such as the addition of a cover page and metadata, and formatting for readability, but it is not yet the definitive version of record. This version will undergo additional copyediting, typesetting and review before it is published in its final form, but we are providing this version to give early visibility of the article. Please note that, during the production process, errors may be discovered which could affect the content, a… Show more

“…For T. cruzi, successful editing can be achieved by different methods such as the stable expression of SpCas9 followed by the transient transfection with in-vitro-transcribed sgRNA (Peng et al, 2014;Burle-Caldas et al, 2018;Romagnoli et al, 2018), the stable expression of both SpCas9 and sgRNA (Lander et al, 2015), the stable expression of T7 RNA polymerase and SpCas9 followed by the transient transfection of a DNA template for the sgRNA expression directed by the T7 promoter (Costa et al, 2018), and last but not least, the marker free editing by the transfection of the ribonucleoprotein complex (SaCas9 + sgRNA) protein SaCas9 (Soares Medeiros et al, 2017;Burle-Caldas et al, 2018). Recombinant protein electroporation was also applied for CRE recombinase delivery to manipulate T. cruzi gene expression (Pacheco-Lugo et al, 2020). By applying the SaCas9 protein delivery, we easily disrupted TcTrypanin using a donor oligonucleotide to insert stop codons plus a restriction site, when compared with the conventional approach.…”

“…Although the system is not inducible due to the apparent endogenous production of glucosamine 6-phosphate, it has resulted useful to obtain knockdowns of essential genes in T. cruzi [ 35 , 36 ]. In addition, the CRE- lox recombination system has been tested in T. cruzi epimastigotes and tissue culture trypomastigotes [ 37 ]. Albeit it has not been used to manipulate endogenous genes yet, the adaptation of the CRE- lox system to generate an inducible CRISPR/Cas9 knockout strategy could contribute to expand the available toolbox to manipulate this parasite.…”
