Abstract
CRISPR/Cas9-based transcriptional regulation systems can induce the site-specific activation or repression of endogenous genes. p300 is a transcriptional co-activator that functions as a histone acetyltransferase that regulates gene transcription via chromatin remodeling. Here, we generated a human embryonic stem cell line stably expressing catalytically dead Cas9 (dCas9) fused to the catalytic core domain of human p300 via lentiviral transduction. This cell line can be used for locus-specific histone acetylation in combination with guide RNAs, and is a valuable tool for gene regulation in stem cell research.
