CCR5 is a coreceptor of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). Transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells homozygous for a 32-bp deletion in CCR5 resulted in a loss of detectable HIV-1 in two patients, suggesting that genetic strategies to knockout CCR5 expression would be a promising gene therapy approach for HIV-1-infected patients. In this study, we targeted CCR5 by CRISPR-Cas9 with a single-guide (sgRNA) and observed 35% indel frequency. When we expressed hCas9 and two gRNAs, the Surveyor assay showed that Cas9-mediated cleavage was increased by 10% with two sgRNAs. Genotype analysis on individual clones showed 11 of 13 carried biallelic mutations, where 4 clones had frameshift (FS) mutations. Taken together, these results indicate that the efficiency of biallelic FS mutations and the knockout of the CCR5 necessary to prevent viral replication were significantly increased with two sgRNAs. These studies demonstrate the knockout of CCR5 and the potential for translational development.
