Abstrakt: | Recent advances in CRISPR-Cas genomic editors have shifted us ever closer to achieving the ultimate therapeutic goal of accomplishing any edit in any cell. However, delivery of this editing machinery to primary cells with high efficiency while avoiding cellular toxicity remains a formidable challenge. Peptide-Assisted Genome Editing (PAGE) provides a simple, modular, and rapid approach for the protein-based delivery of CRISPR-Cas proteins or ribonucleoprotein complexes into primary cells with high efficiency and minimal cytotoxicity. In this chapter, we detail an expression and purification protocol to obtain highly pure Cas9-T6N and opCas12a-T8N PAGE genomic editors. The robustness of this protocol allows for consistent preparations of the purified editors that can be reliably used for the editing of primary and immortalized cells. (Copyright © 2024.
