Synthetic transcriptional activators derived from the CRISPR/Cas9 system are emerging as powerful new tools for activating the endogenous expression of genes of interest in plants. These synthetic constructs, generated by tethering transcriptional activation domains to a nuclease-dead Cas9 (dCas9), can be directed to the promoters of endogenous target genes by single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) to activate transcription. Here, we provide a detailed protocol for targeted transcriptional activation in plants using a recently developed, highly potent dCas9 gene activator construct referred to as dCas9-TV. This protocol covers selection of sgRNA targets, construction of sgRNA expression cassettes, and screening for an optimal sgRNA using a protoplast-based promoter-luciferase assay. Finally, the dCas9-TV gene activator coupled with the optimal sgRNA is delivered into plants via <i>Agrobacterium</i>-mediated transformation, thereby enabling robust upregulation of target gene expression in transgenic <i>Arabidopsis</i> and rice plants. © 2019 by John Wiley &amp; Sons, Inc.</p>","PeriodicalId":10734,"journal":{"name":"Current Protocols in Molecular Biology","volume":"127 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1002/cpmb.89","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37363384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) can associate with chromatin to influence gene expression and chromatin state; many also act at long distances from their transcriptional origin. Yet we know almost nothing about the functions or sites of action for most ncRNAs. Current methods to identify sites of RNA interaction with the genome are limited to the study of a single RNA at a time. Here we describe a protocol for ChAR-seq, a strategy to identify all chromatin-associated RNAs and map their DNA contacts genome-wide. In ChAR-seq, proximity ligation of RNA and DNA to a linker molecule is used to construct a chimeric RNA-DNA molecule that is converted to DNA for sequencing. In a single assay, ChAR-seq can discover <i>de novo</i> chromatin interactions of distinct RNAs, including nascent transcripts, splicing RNAs, and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs).

Here, we describe a protocol utilizing MALDI-IMS for the spatial mapping of lipids in brain tissue from normal human brains and brains from patients with Alzheimer's disease, in the context of Alzheimer's disease. Improved accuracy calibration of the instrument from the tissue surface is emphasized, as this allows for significantly improved mass determination in time of flight (TOF)-based instruments enabling more confident preliminary lipid identification. This improved initial result allows MALDI-IMS data to be complemented with additional instrumentation, such as liquid chromatography mass spectrometry workflows or specialized non-TOF systems such as Fourier transform cyclotron resonance instruments.

Cleavage Under Targets and Release Using Nuclease (CUT&amp;RUN) is a powerful method for mapping protein-DNA interactions at high resolution. In CUT&amp;RUN, a recombinant protein A–microccocal nuclease (pA-MN) fusion is recruited by an antibody targeting the chromatin protein of interest; this can be done with either uncrosslinked or formaldehyde-crosslinked cells. DNA fragments near sites of antibody binding are released from the insoluble bulk chromatin through endonucleolytic cleavage and used to build barcoded DNA-sequencing libraries that can be sequenced in pools of at least 30. Therefore, CUT&amp;RUN provides an alternative to ChIP-seq approaches for mapping chromatin proteins, which typically have relatively high signal-to-noise ratios, while using fewer cells and at a lower cost.
