Site-directed and saturation mutagenesis are critical DNA methodologies for studying protein structure and function. For plasmid-based gene mutation, PCR and overlap-extension PCR involve tedious cloning steps. When the plasmid size is large, PCR yield may be too low for cloning; and for saturation mutagenesis of a single codon, one experiment may not enough to generate all twenty coding variants. Oligo-mediated recombineering sidesteps the complicated cloning process by homologous recombination between a mutagenic oligo and its target site. However, the low recombineering efficiency and inability to select for the recombinant makes it necessary to screen a large number of clones. Herein, we describe two plasmid-based mutagenic strategies: CRISPR/Cas9-assisted ssDNA recombineering for site-directed mutagenesis (CRM) and saturation mutagenesis (CRSM). CRM and CRSM involve co-electroporation of target plasmid, sgRNA expression plasmid and mutagenic oligonucleotide into Escherichia coli cells with induced expression of λ-Red recombinase and Cas9, followed by plasmid extraction and characterization. We established CRM and CRSM via ampicillin resistance gene repair and mutagenesis of N-acetyl‑D‑neuraminic acid aldolase. The mutational efficiency was between 80 and 100% and all twenty amino acid coding variants were obtained at a target site via a single CRSM strategy. CRM and CRSM have the potential to be general plasmid-based gene mutagenesis tools.
