Target Sequence Cloning Protocol

(Standard de-salted oligos are sufficient)

PX330-based plasmids, including PX458-462 – SpCas9 (or SpCas9n D10A nickase) + single guide
RNA:

To clone the guide sequence into the sgRNA scaffold, synthesize two oligos of the form:

5’ – CACCGNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN – 3’
3’ – CNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNCAAA – 5’

PX260 and PX334 – SpCas9 (or SpCas9n D10A nickase) + CRISPR array + tracrRNA:

To clone the guide sequence into the sgRNA scaffold, synthesize two oligos of the form:

5’ – AAACNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGT – 3’
3’ – NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNCAAAAT – 5’

Oligo annealing and cloning into backbone vectors:

1. Digest 1ug of plasmid with BbsI for 4. Set up ligation reaction and incubate at room
30 min at 37°C: temperature for 10 min:

1 ug Plasmid X ul BbsI digested plasmid


1 ul FastDigest BbsI (Fermentas) from step 2 (50ng)
1 ul FastAP (Fermentas) 1 ul phosphorylated and annealed
2 ul 10X FastDigest Buffer oligo duplex from step 3 (1:200
X ul ddH2O dilution)

2. Gel purify digested plasmid using 10 ul subtotal
QIAquick Gel Extraction Kit and elute in EB. 1 ul Quick Ligase (NEB)
11 ul total
3. Phosphorylate and anneal each pair of oligos:
5. (optional) Treat ligation reaction with
