A loss-of-function mutation in <i>ADE2</i> results in an adenine auxotroph that forms pink colonies on culture plates containing a low level of adenine. Therefore when using gRNA targets on <i>ADE2</i> gene and Cas9 protein together, we can evaluate whether this system work well according to the color of colonies. | A loss-of-function mutation in <i>ADE2</i> results in an adenine auxotroph that forms pink colonies on culture plates containing a low level of adenine.

gRNA targets ADE2 gene
A guide RNA (gRNA) is an artificial RNA which is designed to bind a certain DNA sequence. It can combine with Cas9 protein to play a role in the cleavage of target DNA. We design a gRNA that targeted on ADE2 gene to specifically knock this gene in Cryptococcus neoformans.

Expenrimental approach
1.Construct recombinant plasmid. Insert spacer sequence of gRNA on PRH003 plasmid.
2.Transform the product (2.5μL) into DH5α competent cells（50μL）, grow cells on LB-amphenicol medium. Incubate at 37°C overnight. Monoclones are selected by colony PCR. Expanding culture colonies at 37℃ 200rpm, then extracting plasmids and sequencing.
3.Use Kpn1 enzyme to linearise the plasmids and transform them into Cryptococcus neoformans 4500FOA by electroporation.
4.The C. neoformans<i> is spread on YNBA selection medium, and the transformants grow after being cultured in an incubator kept at 30℃ for 4 days. Then the culture is transferred to a refrigerator at 4℃.
5.Red colonies are selected and inoculated into YPD medium, then place in an incubator kept at 30℃ for 4 days. Finally it is kept at 4℃ refrigerator.
6.Comparing the experimental group with the control group, we evaluate whether this system work well according to the color of colonies.
