The biological function of chromatin bases on its spatial organization and dynamic activities in different situations. Labeling and tracing of genomic sequences has been a huge challenge in studying the spatial dynamics of chromatin. We reported the development of 'all-in-one Casilio system (Aio-Casilio)', a new system that enables the labeling of endogenous genomic loci. The Aio-Casilio system consists of the dCas9 protein, mClover fused with the Pumilio and FBF proteins RNA-binding domain (PUF domain) and an U6-sgRNA appended with multiple PUF-binding site(s). Here we showed that the Aio-Casilio system is robust tool for imaging of repetitive elements in telomeres and major satellite in N2A cells. Furthermore, we developed a PBTon-Aio-Casilio System, which enables the visualization of repetitive sequences in mES cells. However, this system failed to establish a labeled ES cell line when we attempted to establish a stable labeling cell line for living cell image. This Aio-Casilio imaging tool has potential to significantly improve the capacity to study the conformation of chromosomes in living cells.
