CRISPR Genome Editing in Bacteria and Yeast

GenScript is pleased to introduce the Microbial genome editing service for knock-in, knock-out or gene replacement in bacteria (E. coli) and yeast (S. cerevisiae). Our service employs a two vector system to target up to three genes simultaneously, ensuring editing accuracy down to the base pair. In addition, to further improve efficacy in bacteria, our scientists have developed a novel λ Red-CRISPR/Cas9 system, which leverages the efficiency of traditional λ Red recombineering with the ease of CRISPR/Cas for seamless, targeted genome editing.

Advantages of GenScript’s CRISPR microbial gene editing system

CRISPR/Cas technology has quickly become one of the easiest and most effective genome editing systems, and when combined with λ Red recombineering has several advantages over the most common editing strategies:

• Seamless
• High efficiency: even in haploid and diploid yeast strains
• Multigene editing: can knock-out up to 3 genes simultaneously
• Precision down to the base pair
• Easy selection: no selectable marker is required

Service Details

*Standard gene synthesis services (SC1010) can be used for the KI gene insert. Click here to learn more about pricing and turnaround times.
**Pricing does not include the additional cost for gene synthesis, if required.

Case studies

Using CRISPR to generate a CAN1 knock-out S. cerevisiae strain Read more »

• CRISPR/Cas9 was used to delete a 400 bp sequence in the CAN1 gene to block gene expression (Figure 1).
• PCR of the recombinant strains yielded bands 400 bp shorter than the native strain, demonstrating successful gene knock-out (Figure 2). A 100% CAN1 knock-out success rate (10/10) was achieved using this system.

Using CRISPR to knock-in a 1kb fragment in the S. cerevisiae CAN1 gene Read more »

• The CRISPR system was used to insert a 1 kb fragment into the CAN1 gene to test KI efficiency (Figure 3).
• PCR of the recombinant strains yielded bands 1 kb longer than the native strain, indicating successful gene knock-in. A 100% success rate (5/5 strains) was achieved using CRISPR (Figure 4).
