Cas9 and Cas12a toolkit parts available via AddGene. Plasmid parts of the toolkit: Level 1 guide accepters for Cas9 and Cas12a with three promoter options. Compatible binary vectors containing plant selection markers and nuclease cassettes which are wheat or barley specific. P-35S = Cauliflower mosaic virus long 35S promoter, P-PvUbi = Panicum virgatum ubiquitin promoter, HptII = hygromycin phosphotransferase CDS with intron, T-35S = Cauliflower mosaic virus terminator, P-ZmUbi = Zea mays ubiquitin promoter, ttAtCas12a + 8int = temperature tolerant Arabidopsis codon optimised Cas12a CDS with 8 introns, ZmCas9 + 13int = Zea mays codon optimised Cas9 with thirteen introns, T-Nos = nopaline synthase terminator, GRF-GIF = Growth-regulating factor 4 (GRF4) and its cofactor GRF interacting factor 1(GRF1) fusion, GR-GRF-GIF = Rat glucocorticoid receptor (GR) & Growth-regulating factor 4 (GRF4) & its cofactor GRF interacting factor 1(GRF1) fusion. RFP = red fluorescent protein for colour selection during cloning, TaU6 = Triticum aestivum U6 promoter, TaU3 = Triticum aestivum U3 promoter, HvU3 = Hordeum vulgare U3 promoter, HH = Hammerhead ribozyme, HDV = hepatitis delta virus ribozyme, tRNA = tRNA sequence, DR = short invariable 5’ region of Cas12a guide, sgRNA = invariable 3’ region of Cas9 guide, LacZ = blue/white colour selection marker for cloning, BsaI = restriction site, BpiI = restriction site. Triangles indicate GoldenGate cloning site cut points. Arrows indicate direction of transcription
