Although establishing single-cell clones are essential for confirming the cellular phenotypic changes in association with genetic modifications, it is technically hard to dispense single-cell efficiently and correctly. Here, we demonstrate single-cell cloning of genetically modified lung cancer cells using a single particle isolation system, On-chip SPiS, by which bi-allelic gene-knockout cells and highly gene-expressing transfectants can be easily and certainly established. In our experiment, we obtained one bi-allelic knockout clone from only 12 clones(8.3%)and eight highly transgene-expressing clones from 20 clones(40%). Furthermore, we could define that considerable rate of clones without transgene were mixed among selection marker-resistant cell populations. These results suggest that the single-cell dispensing system is a quite useful tool for single-cell cloning in genome-editing and gene-transfection experiments.}, pages = {75--80}, title = {Utility of a Single Particle Isolation System in Genome-editing and Gene-transfection Experiments}, volume = {48}, year = {2021} }
