Abstract | Endogenous gene activation by programmable transcription factors offers gene-dose-dependent phenotyping of target cells embedded in their in vivo natural tissue environment. Modified CRISPR/Cas9 systems were developed to be used as guide (g) RNA programmable transcriptional activation platforms (CRISPRa) in vitro and in vivo allowing targeted or multiplexed gene activation studies. We specifically developed these tools to be applied in cardiomyocytes providing dCas9VPR expressing mice under the control of the Myosin heavy chain 6 (Myh6) promoter. Here, we describe a protocol for the efficient design and validation of newly identified gRNA for enhancing transcriptional activity of a selected gene of interest. Additionally, we are providing insights into a downstream application in a dCas9VPR expressing mouse model specifically for cardiomyocyte biology. |
