Abstract: Disclosed herein are homology-independent targeted integration methods of integrating an exogenous DNA sequence into a genome of a non-dividing cell and compositions for such methods. Methods herein comprise contacting the non-dividing cell with a composition comprising a targeting construct comprising the exogenous DNA sequence and a targeting sequence, a complementary strand oligonucleotide homologous to the targeting sequence, and a nuclease, thereby altering the genome of the non-dividing cell.

Abstract: Compositions and methods modulating the steady state of cells are provided. The compositions include metabolites (C1 metabolites and C1 metabolite cocktails (C1-MIM) for use in inducing cells into a different state from their steady state, for example, into a less differentiated state, when compared to their original state before treatment. The C1 metabolites include methionine, SAM (S-adenosyl methionine), threonine, glycine, putrescine, and cysteine. The metabolites are used to supplement cell culture media, and accordingly, cells culture media supplemented with the disclosed metabolites (MIM supplemented media) are also provided. The method includes: contacting a cell with the C1 metabolites for a sufficient period of time to result in reprograming the cell into a different state from their steady, for example, into a less differentiated state having progenitor-like characteristics (MIM-Cells).

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and compositions for editing a target genome in a cell comprising contacting the cell with (i) a single homology arm construct comprising a replacement sequence and a targeted endonuclease cleavage site; and (ii) a targeted endonuclease, wherein the replacement sequence comprises at least one nucleotide difference compared to the target genome and wherein the target genome comprises a sequence homologous to the targeted endonuclease cleavage site.
