Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology and in particular relates to a Cas9 nuclease and application thereof. The Cas9 nuclease (Cas9-R780A) has Cas9 nuclease activity and is suitable for being used in a CRISPR/Cas9 system; theCas9 nuclease is prepared by mutating arginine at the 780 site of the wild-type Cas9 nuclease to alanine. DNA double strands can be cut by using the Cas9 nuclease (Cas9-R780A) so as to generate a protruded cleavage terminal, and then a base complementary to the protruded cleavage terminal can be added in a continuity filling-in manner, so that the precise editing of a specific position of a genomic DNA fragment can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and in particular relates to a Cas9 nuclease R780A and its application. Background technique [0002] Since the completion of the Human Genome Project and the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements, scientists have analyzed and identified a large number of genes and DNA regulatory elements in the genome [1,2]. DNA regulatory elements that play an important role in the regulation of gene expression include promoters, enhancers, silencers, and insulators. However, the functions of most regulatory elements have not been experimentally verified and elucidated [2-8]. Exploring the function of genes and DNA regulatory elements can be studied through genetic DNA segment editing. [0003] Early gene editing and gene function modification were achieved through gene transposition and transgenesis [9-14]. With the development of sequencing technology, reverse genetics has been applied to make specific mutations in the...
