The study presents a flexible knock-in assay method called CRISPR-Select(TIME), CRISPR-Select(SPACE) and CRISPR-Select(STATE), which tracks the absolute frequencies of genetic variants associated with genetic diseases as a function of time, space, or measurable cell states. The method accurately determines the function of the genetic variants and can be used in research, diagnostics, and drug development for genetic disorders.
Determining the functional role of thousands of genetic sequence variants (mutations) associated with genetic diseases is a major challenge. Here we present clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)-Select(TIME), CRISPR-Select(SPACE) and CRISPR-Select(STATE), a set of flexible knock-in assays that introduce a genetic variant in a cell population and track its absolute frequencies relative to an internal, neutral control mutation as a function of time, space or a cell state measurable by flow cytometry. Phenotypically, CRISPR-Select can thereby determine, for example, pathogenicity, drug responsiveness/resistance or in vivo tumor promotion by a specific variant. Mechanistically, CRISPR-Select can dissect how the variant elicits the phenotype by causally linking the variant to motility/invasiveness or any cell state or biochemical process with a flow cytometry marker. The method is applicable to organoids, nontransformed or cancer cell lines. It is accurate, quantitative, fast and simple and works in single-well or 96-well higher throughput format. CRISPR-Select provides a versatile functional variant assay for research, diagnostics and drug development for genetic disorders.
