    Abstract Key message: We identified LsMybW as the allele responsible for the shift in color from black to white seeds in wild ancestors of lettuce to modern cultivars. Successfully selected white seeds are a key agronomic trait for lettuce cultivation and breeding; however, the mechanism underlying the shift from black-in its wild ancestor-to white seeds remains uncertain. We aimed to identify the gene/s responsible for white seed trait in lettuce. White seeds accumulated less proanthocyanidins than black seeds, similar to the phenotype observed in Arabidopsis TT2 mutants. Genetic mapping of a candidate gene was performed with double-digest RAD sequencing using an F

    Abstract In metabolic engineering, genome editing tools make it much easier to discover and evaluate relevant genes and pathways and construct strains. Clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-associated (Cas) systems now have become the first choice for genome engineering in many organisms includingindustrially relevant ones. Targeted DNA cleavage by CRISPR-Cas provides variousgenome engineering modes such as indels, replacements, large deletions, knock-in and chromosomal rearrangements, while host-dependent differences in repair pathways need to be considered. The versatility of the CRISPR system has given rise to derivative technologies that complement nuclease-based editing, which causes cytotoxicity especially in microorganisms. Deaminase-mediated base editing installs targeted point mutations with much less toxicity. CRISPRi and CRISPRa can temporarily control gene expression without changing the genomic sequence. Multiplex, combinatorial and large scale editing are made possible by streamlined design and construction of gRNA libraries to further accelerates comprehensive discovery, evaluation and building of metabolic pathways. This review summarizes the technical basis and recent advances in CRISPR-related genome editing tools applied for metabolic engineering purposes, with representative examples of industrially relevant eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms.

    Abstract When cultivated rice seed fall into fields, they may overwinter and spontaneously germinate the next spring. Such germinated plants are termed "volunteer rice." Volunteer grains originating from feed rice varieties may differ in certain traits, such as quality and taste, as compared with those of rice cultivated for human consumption, which may reduce the overall quality of the final harvested grain. Many rice varieties show resistance to benzobicyclon (BBC), a beta-triketone herbicide (bTH) that inhibits 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD). Recently, the rice gene

    Abstract Cytosine base editing enables the installation of specific point mutations without double-strand breaks in DNA and is advantageous for various applications such as gene therapy, but further reduction of off-target risk and development of efficient delivery methods are desired. Here we show structure-based rational engineering of the cytosine base editing system Target-AID to minimize its off-target effect and molecular size. By intensive and careful truncation, DNA-binding domain of its deaminase PmCDA1 is eliminated and additional mutations are introduced to restore enzyme function. The resulting tCDA1EQ is effective in N-terminal fusion (AID-2S) or inlaid architecture (AID-3S) with Cas9, showing minimized RNA-mediated editing and gRNA-dependent/independent DNA off-targets, as assessed in human cells. Combining with the smaller Cas9 ortholog system (SaCas9), a cytosine base editing system is created that is within the size limit of AAV vector.

    Abstract Technologies harnessing CRISPR systems have been rapidly evolving and expanding the capacity of researchers for understanding of mammalian cell behavior and its underlying mechanisms through genome and epigenome manipulations. In this review, we summarized the recent developments of CRISPR-based technologies for genetic and epigenetic modifications that include engineering of Cas9 for PAM simplification, non-cleaving base editing tools and alteration of gene expression. Applications such as genome-wide screening methods or CRISPR-based DNA barcoding for cellular lineage tracking are highlighted. Anticipated and upcoming development for mammalian synthetic biology that includes organelle engineering is also discussed.

    Abstract Since the emergence of programmable RNA-guided nucleases based on clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein (Cas) systems, genome editing technologies have become a simplified and versatile tool for genome editing in various organisms and cell types. Although genome editing enables efficient genome manipulations, such as gene disruptions, gene knockins, and chromosomal translocations via DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair in eukaryotes, DSBs induced by the CRISPR/Cas system are lethal or severely toxic to many microorganisms. Therefore, in many prokaryotes, including industrially useful microbes, the CRISPR/Cas system is often used as a negative selection component in combination with recombineering or other related strategies. Novel and revolutionary technologies have been recently developed to re-write targeted nucleotides (C:G to T:A and A:T to G:C) without DSBs and donor DNA templates. These technologies rely on the recruitment of deaminases at specific target loci using the nuclease-deficient CRISPR/Cas system. Here, the authors review and compare CRISPR-based genome editing, current base editing platforms and their spectra. The authors discuss how these technologies can be applied in various aspects of microbial metabolic engineering to overcome barriers to cellular regulation in prokaryotes.

    Abstract KEY MESSAGE: Base editing in tomatoes was achieved by transient expression. The Solanaceae plants, particularly the tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), is of huge economic value worldwide. The tomato is a unique model plant for studying the functions of genes related to fruit ripening. Deeper understanding of tomatoes is of great importance for both plant research and the economy. Genome editing technology, such as CRISPR/Cas9, has been used for functional genetic research. However, some challenges, such as low transformation efficiency, remain with this technology. Moreover, the foreign Cas9 and gRNA expression cassettes must be removed to obtain null-segregants In this study, we used a high-level transient expression system to improve the base editing technology. A high-level transient expression system has been established previously using geminiviral replication and a double terminator. The pBYR2HS vector was used for this transient expression system. nCas9-CDA and sgRNA-SlHWS were introduced into this vector, and the protein and RNA were then transiently expressed in tomato tissues by agroinfiltration. The homozygous mutant produced by base editing was obtained in the next generation with an efficiency of about 18%. nCas9-free next-generation plants were 71%. All the homozygous base-edited plants in next generation are nCas9-free. These findings show that the high-level transient expression system is useful for base editing in tomatoes.
