A systematic genome-wide mapping of oncogenic mutation selection during CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing
Recent studies have reported that genome editing by CRISPR–Cas9 induces a DNA damage response mediated by p53 in primary cells hampering their growth. This could lead to a selection of cells with pre-existing p53 mutations. In this study, employing an integrated computational and experimental framew...

| Zusammenfassung: | Recent studies have reported that genome editing by CRISPR–Cas9 induces a DNA damage response mediated by
p53
in primary cells hampering their growth. This could lead to a selection of cells with pre-existing
p53
mutations. In this study, employing an integrated computational and experimental framework, we systematically investigated the possibility of selection of additional cancer driver mutations during CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing. We first confirm the previous findings of the selection for pre-existing
p53
mutations by CRISPR-Cas9. We next demonstrate that similar to
p53
, wildtype
KRAS
may also hamper the growth of Cas9-edited cells, potentially conferring a selective advantage to pre-existing
KRAS
-mutant cells. These selective effects are widespread, extending across cell-types and methods of CRISPR-Cas9 delivery and the strength of selection depends on the sgRNA sequence and the gene being edited. The selection for pre-existing
p53
or
KRAS
mutations may confound CRISPR-Cas9 screens in cancer cells and more importantly, calls for monitoring patients undergoing CRISPR-Cas9-based editing for clinical therapeutics for pre-existing
p53
and
KRAS
mutations.
CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing can induce a p53 mediated damage response. Here the authors investigate the possibility of selection of pre-existing cancer driver mutations during CRISPR-Cas9 knockout based gene editing and identify
KRAS
mutants that may confer a selected advantage to edited cells. |
