Explore our fast-track multiplex editing workflow
Example Pin-point multiple Gene Knock-out project workflow:
- Reagent delivery conditions are optimised using a highly active control single guide RNA (sgRNA).
- Candidate Pin-point sgRNAs targeting the genes of interest are designed and tested in an arrayed format to identify the gRNAs giving the most efficient gene knock-out.
- Shortlisted sgRNAs are validated individually in larger scale transfections to confirm efficiency.
- Validated sgRNAs are combined in multiplex transfections to generate gene edited pools containing cells with multiple combinations of knock-out edits.
- Clonal cell populations are isolated from the edited pool and DNA sequence analysis is performed to identify single and multiple edited clones.
- Clones with desirable genotypes are expanded and editing is confirmed prior to cryopreservation.

Identifying active Pin-point sgRNAs for gene knockout via C to T base conversion and protein loss screening.
(A) Transfecting 10 sgRNAs/target in HCT-116 cells with Pin-point nCas9 and Rat APOBEC mRNAs under 3 optimized conditions reveals GRN973 and GRN998 as active for genes A and B knockout, confirmed by DNA sequencing and (B) FACS analysis. (C) Multiplex transfection of GRN973 and GRN998 with a validated gRNA, GRN762, targeting a third gene, shows no loss of viability in single, double, or triple targeted pools. (D) DNA sequence analysis confirms effective C>T conversion across all three genes. (E) FACS analysis indicates 7% of transfected cells lost expression of all three target genes.
