Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, since the antiviral siRNA is only a short sequence of 21 base pairs, according to the conventional small RNA design principles, most viral genomes will produce hundreds of candidate siRNAs
Especially for RNA viruses with huge genomes like members of the Coronaviridae family, according to conventional design principles, it will take a lot of manpower and material resources to screen siRNAs that can effectively resist viruses in practical applications (due to reasons such as the spatial structure of the target RNA) , causing many siRNAs that theoretically meet the principle of "effectiveness" to be ineffective or inefficient in practical applications)

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for designing a siRNA (Small Interfering Ribonucleic Acid) molecule resisting RNA virus. The method comprises the following steps of: (1) selecting RNA polymerase, which is in RNA virus, has a conserved sequence and is RNA-dependent, as a target of siRNA; (2) utilizing siRNA design software to generate small RNA molecules resisting the RNA virus; (3) screening theoretically efficient siRNA for experiment research according to a siRNA design rule; and (4) adopting expression plasmid containing RNA polymerase III promoter U6 as an antiviral application form of the small RNA molecules. The method is applied to select an antiviral target sequence, so that the probability of obtaining efficient and antiviral small RNA molecules can be improved obviously, the selection range of an RNA interference target point is greatly reduced, the working efficiency is improved, and the cost for RNA interference technology research and application is obviously reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of RNA interference, in particular to a method for designing anti-RNA virus siRNA molecules. Background technique [0002] There are many types of RNA-like viruses, which are widely distributed, and are infected by aquatic and terrestrial animals as well as humans. For example, taura virus (TSV), Macrobrachium rosenbergii nodavirus (MrNV), infectious myonecrosis virus (IMNV), which pose a serious threat to aquatic cultured shrimp, and influenza virus (Flu virus), which is extremely harmful to terrestrial animals, including humans. ), human hepatitis A virus (HAV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and various coronaviruses such as severe acute respiratory syndrome virus (SARS-CoV), porcine transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), etc. Due to the low activity of enzymes in the error repair mechanism of RNA viruses during RNA replication, there is almost no enzyme activity, so they mutate quickly; and va...
