A Single H1 Promoter Can Drive Both Guide RNA and Endonuclease Expression in the CRISPR-Cas9 System

The RNA-guided endonuclease Cas9 (CRISPR-Cas9) genome editing system has been widely used for biomedical research and holds great potential for therapeutic applications in eukaryotes. The conventional vector-based CRISPR-Cas9 delivery system requires two different RNA polymerase promoters for expres...

description The RNA-guided endonuclease Cas9 (CRISPR-Cas9) genome editing system has been widely used for biomedical research and holds great potential for therapeutic applications in eukaryotes. The conventional vector-based CRISPR-Cas9 delivery system requires two different RNA polymerase promoters for expression of the guide RNA (gRNA) and Cas9 endonuclease. The large size and relative complexity of such CRISPR transgene cassettes impede their broad implementation, especially in gene therapy applications with viral vectors that have a limited packaging capacity. Here, we report the design of a single-promoter-driven CRISPR-Cas9 system that uses the dual-polymerase (Pol II and Pol III) activity of the H1 promoter. This size reduction strategy of the vector insert provides a significant titer advantage in the lentiviral vector over the regular CRISPR system.
