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. As a result, we developed an expression system with strong repression, which is activated by CRISPR-Cas9-mediated excision of a DNA fragment from the plasmids.</p>","PeriodicalId":54232,"journal":{"name":"CRISPR Journal","volume":" ","pages":"353-365"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144638679","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given the transformative potential of these enabling technologies, their applications are steadily expanding into most biology and biomedical fields where they play a central role in many experimental frameworks. For these reasons, in order to effectively prepare future generations of biologists and bioengineers for successful careers, there is a high need to incorporate courses teaching genome editing fundamentals into existing curricula. 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.
