From: Efficient gene editing of human long-term hematopoietic stem cells validated by clonal tracking

Extended Data Fig. 3

a, b, Fold change expression of cell cycle related genes relative to UT 24 h after AAV-based editing with the indicated treatments in CB (a) or mPB (b) HSPCs (CB: n = 8, 5, 7, 6, 3, 3, 3, 3; mPB: n = 4, 4, 4, 3). Median. c, Fold change expression of CDKN1A relative to UT 24 h after IDLV-based editing with indicated treatments in CB HSPCs (n = 3). Median. d, Fold change expression of CDKN1A relative to UT at 24 h after AAV-based editing with indicated treatments in CB HSPCs (n = 5). Median. e) MA plots showing significant down- (green) and up- (red) regulated genes after AAVS1 editing in mock electroporated (left) and standard edited (right) compared to UT (n = 3). PPP1R12C, the AAVS1 hosting gene appears among the downregulated genes, concordantly with previous reports showing transient transcriptional repression at the site of DNA DSB15. f) Random walk plots for the indicated Reactome categories. Relative adjusted p-values and NES are shown. g) Venn diagram showing the number of genes related to the “Allograft rejection” category upregulated upon standard editing and downregulated in presence of “+ Ad5-E4orf6/7” treatment. h) Venn diagram showing the number of HDR genes (“Homology directed repair” category from Reactome database) shared with E2F pathway target genes (Hallmark gene set) from cluster 1 or other clusters from Fig. 3e. i) Schematic of “cell cycle” and “p53 pathway” KEGG gene ontologies highlighting genes (red) belonging to clusters 1 (top) and 3 (bottom) of Fig. 3e. For all panels with statistical analysis: Friedman test with two-tailed Dunn’s multiple comparisons. n indicate independent experiments, except for Extended Data Fig. 3e where n indicates independent samples.
