Reversing insecticide resistance with allelic-drive in Drosophila melanogaster

Bhagyashree Kaduskar et al.

Summary: In this study, researchers generated common insecticide resistance mutations in laboratory fruit fly strains using CRISPR/Cas9 editing. They also successfully replaced a resistant mutant with a susceptible wild-type using CRISPR technology, providing a potent new tool for vector control.

The genetic architecture of target-site resistance to pyrethroid insecticides in the African malaria vectors Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles coluzzii

Chris S. Clarkson et al.

Summary: Resistance to pyrethroid insecticides in malaria vectors is a major concern, with research showing widespread genetic variation in the Vgsc gene across African countries. New alleles were identified, some of which could enhance or compensate for known resistance genotypes. The study also revealed the potential for geographical spread of resistance through the identification of distinct haplotype groups carrying resistance alleles across multiple countries.

Regulating the expression of gene drives is key to increasing their invasive potential and the mitigation of resistance

Andrew Hammond et al.

Summary: Research has shown that alternative germline regulatory sequences can enhance the effectiveness of gene drives and reduce the propensity for resistant mutations, highlighting the importance of nuclease expression regulation in developing robust homing-based gene drives for population suppression.

Base Editing of Somatic Cells Using CRISPR-Cas9 in Drosophila

Elizabeth Marr et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that base editing is efficient in Drosophila, with the highest conversion rates occurring at specific positions within the targeted site when using a transgenic Drosophila base editor and gRNAs. Additionally, the simultaneous use of two gRNAs targeting a genomic region spaced apart led to mutations between the two gRNA targets, indicating a method to broaden the available sites accessible for targeting.

Gene-drive suppression of mosquito populations in large cages as a bridge between lab and field

Andrew Hammond et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the suppressive activity of a CRISPR-based gene-drive targeting the doublesex gene in Anopheles gambiae populations. The gene-drive element spreads rapidly through the populations, achieving full suppression within one year without inducing resistance. Approximate Bayesian computation allows for a more accurate prediction of gene-drive behavior in ecologically-relevant settings.

CRISPR/Cas9 modified An. gambiae carrying kdr mutation L1014F functionally validate its contribution in insecticide resistance and combined effect with metabolic enzymes

Linda Grigoraki et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that introducing the 1014F allele in Anopheles mosquitoes significantly increases resistance to pyrethroids and DDT, while reducing mortality after exposure to pyrethroid-treated bednets. Combining 1014F with over-expression of detoxification enzymes further enhances resistance, although mosquitoes carrying the 1014F allele exhibit fitness disadvantages.

Prime editing in mice reveals the essentiality of a single base in driving tissue-specific gene expression

Pan Gao et al.

Summary: In mice, both the PE2 and HDR systems led to cell-specific loss of expression of an mRNA/long noncoding RNA gene pair with single nucleotide variants in TFBS. However, PE2 showed higher editing efficiency and lower off-target mutation risk compared to HDR.
