a Clonal (1) mcdFLASH-HIF lines derived post-hygromycin (HygroB) selection were transduced first with the (2) sgRNA vector targeting the VHL transcriptional start site, followed by puromycin selection (Puro). This pool was subsequently transduced with the (3) CRISPRoffv2.1 virus and selected with blasticidin (BlastS) prior to flow cytometry (on day 5 and 10 post BlastS selection). b The (1) dFLASH vector with the HRE enhancer was transduced, as were 2 variants of the CRISPRoffv2.1 vector with either (3A) EF1α promoter or (3B) SFFV promoter driving the dCas9 expression cassette. 3A denotes Dnmt3A, 3L denotes Dnmt3L, XTEN80 denotes an 80 amino acid linker sequence for improved protein half-life.Ā a, bĀ created in BioRender.

Data are representative of n = 2 independent experiments.
