Description

Several gene edits can be made in human stem cells in one experiment, Haiting Ma describes in a 2024 protocol. Targeted genome editing of human pluripotent stem cells is critical for basic and translational research. The protocol uses Cpf1, a programmable DNA-cutting enzyme from the CRISPR family that favors AT-rich target sequences, delivered with its guide RNAs from a single vector system.

The procedures enable both small indel formation and precise editing through homologous recombination at multiple loci at once. A single guide array targeted two genes in one experiment, producing a knockin at one locus and a knockout at the other. Edited cells kept pluripotency markers and could differentiate into neurons. A reporter line with a large cassette at the insulin locus was also generated.
