Abstract:
In an illustrative embodiment, automated multi-module cell editing instruments are provided to automate multiple edits into nucleic acid sequences inside one or more cells.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for editing nucleic acids in live cells in an automated stand-alone multi-module cell editing instrument, comprising the steps of:\n providing live cells in a receptacle configured to receive the live cells; providing first nucleic acids to one or more receptacles configured to receive first nucleic acids; growing the live cells in a growth module to a desired optical density to produce grown live cells; transforming the grown live cells in a transformation module configured to introduce the first nucleic acids into the grown live cells to produce transformed cells; providing conditions in a nuclease-directed editing module to allow the first nucleic acids to edit nucleic acids in the transformed cells to produce edited cells; and using an automated liquid handling system to 1) transfer the first nucleic acids from the one or more receptacles configured to receive nucleic acids to the transformation module, 2) transfer the live cells from the receptacle configured to receive the live cells to the growth module, 3) transfer the grown live cells from the growth module to the transformation module, and 4) transfer the transformed cells from the transformation module to the nuclease-directed editing module without user intervention.
