Visualisation of a protein complex binding a DNA double helix, representing genome editing

genome editing

Checking whether a genome edit worked

How PCR, sequencing and protein checks show whether a genome edit is present, clonal and on target, and which result is still only a hint.

Choosing and checking a primary antibody

How to choose and check a primary antibody: host, clonality, application claims, and controls that show the signal is the intended target.

Controls for a CRISPR experiment

Place a non-targeting guide, an untransfected well, a known cutter, a second guide and a parental identity check before you treat a fluorescent marker as an edit.

Questions before an editing-validation enquiry

An editing-validation enquiry needs cell type, delivery class, guide sequences, genome build, locus, sample count and the readout you want. A gene name alone is not enough.

Troubleshooting no cutting on a surveyor assay

A Surveyor or T7E1 gel with no cut can mean identical alleles, a skipped anneal, a dead enzyme, a failed PCR, no real cut, or bands the gel cannot separate.

What sequence data to request after an edit

After an edit, request coordinates, the genome build, FASTQ files, an allele table, coverage and controls. A PDF of the on-target site is not the dataset.
