Loss-of-function studies in human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) require efficient methodologies for lesion of genes of interest. Here, we introduce a donor-free paired gRNA-guided CRISPR/Cas9 knockout strategy (paired-KO) for efficient and rapid gene ablation in hPSCs. Through paired-KO, we succeeded in targeting all genes of interest with high biallelic targeting efficiencies. More importantly, during paired-KO, the cleaved DNA was repaired mostly through direct end joining without insertions/deletions (precise ligation), and thus makes the lesion product predictable. The paired-KO remained highly efficient for one-step targeting of multiple genes and was also efficient for targeting of microRNA, while for long non-coding RNA over 8 kb, cleavage of a short fragment of the core promoter region was sufficient to eradicate downstream gene transcription. This work suggests that the paired-KO strategy is a simple and robust system for loss-of-function studies for both coding and non-coding genes in hPSCs. Paired-KO represents an efficient gene ablation methodology in hPSCs The cleavage sites and ligation pattern can be easily predicted in paired-KO Paired-KO fits for loss-of-function studies for both coding and non-coding genes Promoter removal is sufficient to eradicate downstream gene transcription In this article, Zhang, Liu, Jin, and colleagues show that two adjacent double-strand breaks are preferentially repaired through precise ligation without insertions/deletions in human pluripotent stem cells. This strategy will thus serve as an efficient way to delete a gene fragment and represents a precise methodology for loss-of-function studies of both coding and non-coding genes in human pluripotent stem cells.
