Protocol for auxin-inducible depletion of the RNA-binding protein PTBP1 in mouse embryonic stem cells

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Inducible degradation of proteins of interest provides a powerful approach for functional studies. Here, we present a protocol for tightly controlled depletion of the RNA-binding protein PTBP1 in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs). We describe steps for establishing an ESC line expressing doxycycline-inducible auxin receptor protein OsTIR1 and tagging endogenous Ptbp1 alleles using CRISPR-Cas9 and homology-directed repair reagents. We then detail procedures for assaying the efficiency of inducible PTBP1 knockdown by immunoblotting. This protocol is adaptable for other protein targets. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Iannone et al.1
