The histone chaperone FACT induces Cas9 multi-turnover behavior and modifies genome manipulation in human cells

Abstract: is a prokaryotic RNA-guided DNA endonuclease that binds substrates tightly in vitro but 29 turns over rapidly when used to manipulate genomes in eukaryotic cells. Little is known about 30 the factors responsible for dislodging Cas9 or how they influence genome engineering. Using a 31 proximity labeling system for unbiased detection of transient protein interactions in cell-free 32 Xenopus laevis egg extract, we identified the dimeric histone chaperone FACT as an interactor 33 of substrate-bound Cas9.

“…As a result, the PAM-proximal DSB end is exposed for further processing, whereas the other end may be temporally blocked from further processing by the still bound Cas9 [68]. RNA-polymerase and facilitates chromatin transcription (FACT) can remove Cas9 from the PAM-distal side, but how Cas9 is removed during genome editing remains unclear [68,69]. How the tight binding of Cas9 to the PAM-distal DSB end affects DSB repair pathway choice is also unclear.…”

“…Tight binding of Cas9 on the PAM-distal DSB end may alter repair kinetics and/or mechanism [170]. Factors such as RNApolymerase and the histone chaperone FACT promote Cas9 release and may affect DNA repair outcomes [68,69]. cNHEJ is the major repair pathway to repair ionizing radiation (IR) induced DSBs and MMEJ is less efficient [183].…”

“…We also note the observed difference in activity of the MISER constructs between bacterial in vivo repression experiments and the in vitro binding activity using BLI. We speculate that the MISER constructs are inherently defective for binding target DNA, but that sufficiently perturbed dsDNA in bacteria-such as during replication, transcription, or other rearrangements-presents enough opportunity in the form of dynamically un-and under-wound dsDNA, or stretches of single-stranded DNA, to allow the gRNA to anneal to the spacer sequence 52,61 . In addition, abundant or overexpressed proteins, as is the case here, can often achieve concentrations exceeding 1 μM inside E. coli cells, so it is also possible that the overall high abundance of the MISER constructs in the bacterial repression assay is contributing to the binding signal 62 .…”
