Abstract
Description
Technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and specifically relates to a CRISPR / Cas9 gRNA sequence that can effectively knock out the HTLV-1 virus genome. Background technique
[0002] Adult T-cell leukemia (adult T-cell leukemia, ATL) is a malignant lymphoid system proliferative disease caused by human T cell lymphotropic virus type I (Human T cell lymphotropic virus, HTLV-1) infection. Currently, there is no treatment or prognosis for it The ideal plan seriously threatens human health. The high incidence of HTLV-1 infection in my country is concentrated in the coastal areas of Fujian and Taiwan. HTLV-1 is the first retrovirus found to be related to human diseases, with an incubation period of up to 40 years. When it infects host cells, it can randomly integrate its genome into host cell chromosomes. Existing treatment methods are very It is difficult to remove the latent virus in the host.
[0003] About 20 million people in the world are infecte...
