To address this issue, we developed a CRISPR-Cas9-based genome editing approach that directly modifies the plasmid encoding the toxic peptide during <i>Escherichia coli</i> cultivation. The constructed plasmids contained a transcription terminator between the promoter and coding region, preventing full gene expression through abortive transcription. Upon CRISPR-Cas9 activation, this region is excised, thus restoring the functional gene. To implement this approach, we modified widely used pET-series expression plasmids by adding extra terminators in the 5'-untranslated region of the recombinant gene. Four antimicrobial peptides with strong bactericidal properties served as toxic gene products, while green fluorescent protein was used to assess the efficiency of expression repression.

To accomplish this objective, lecture-based courses are rapidly integrating genome editing concepts; however, there are few laboratory courses that teach the practical skills needed to successfully perform genome editing experiments. Here, we describe the development and implementation of a semester-long laboratory course that teaches students not only the techniques needed to perform gene knockout, gene activation, gene repression, and base editing in mammalian cells but also prepares them to design and troubleshoot experiments, write scientific manuscripts, as well as prepare and deliver scientific presentations.

We evaluated the efficiency of 11 sgRNAs targeting four genes both <i>in vitro</i> and <i>in vivo</i> in <i>C. gigas</i>. In addition, we found that Cas9 protein differs from Cas9 mRNA in gene editing efficiency at various stages of early development. Cas9 protein proved particular efficacy in achieving early and efficient gene knockout, functioning effectively during the first cell division and facilitating biallelic gene knockouts. Statistical analysis showed that in the protein group, the biallelic editing frequency ranged from 12.5% to 57.8%, and the overall editing frequency reached as high as 75-90.6%. The mRNA group exhibited a biallelic editing frequency of 3.1-14.0% and the overall editing frequency spanning 65.6-78.1%. Contrary to expectations, low-temperature incubation (20°C) of oyster embryos prolonged the time window for the first cell division but did not improve gene editing efficiency, likely due to the high temperature sensitivity of Cas9 enzyme activity.
