AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This technology allows for efficient modification or deletion (CR) of DNA sequences by combining two different types of proteins called creators with specific functions like ribozymes that help them recognize their targets quickly and accurately. By placing these genes together within an internal part of certain parts of chromosome 22, this process becomes faster than traditional methods without adding any extra elements. Overall, it makes modifying DNA easier and better ways compared to current techniques such as ZFNs.

Problems solved by technology

This patented technical problem addressed in this patents relates to improving the performance of engineered systems called CRISP/cascade machines, particularly those involving modifying genomics like CRISA and CRISF1. While there may already existed various methods for introducing new modifications into cells through fusion techniques, they still face challenging issues due to their limitations on delivering precise changes over long distances within cell structures without causing damage during transplantation procedures. Current tools include CRISPA, GENEZY, and spike elements, among others, but none provide sufficient precision control across multiple points along the entire length of these nucleuses. Therefore, alternative technologies based on CRISPT systems were proposed to overcome these difficulties.

Embodiment 1

[0069] inPTG-Cas9 for multi-site editing in rice

[0070] The design is as follows: multiple tRNA-gRNA tandem units (polycistronic tRNA-gRNA, PTG for short) are placed in the intron of the coding gene. The intron containing inPTG and the exon encoding Cas9 are fused into a gene, and such fusion gene can express Cas9 protein and gRNA simultaneously. When the inPTG-Cas9 system is expressed in plants, the PTG fragment in the spliced ​​intron is recognized and processed by RNase P and Z, and a single gRNA is released, while the splicing of the intron does not affect the expression of the Cas9 gene. Transcription and translation, such an inPTG-Cas9 fusion gene can efficiently edit multiple target sites at the same time.

[0071] 1. Carrier Description

[0072] In order to realize the expression of inPTG, we modified the rice UBI10 gene, and inserted the PTG sequence structure into the intron of UBI 10 (such as image 3 shown). There is a 962bp intron (sequence such as SEQ ID No...

Embodiment 2

[0161] Example 2 Verification of inPTG-Cas9 editing efficiency in rice

[0162] We further verified the editing efficiency of inPTG-Cas9 in rice plants. The pRGEB33-inPTG3 / 6 / 7 / 10 vectors were transformed into Zhonghua 11 rice plants by the method of Agrobacterium-mediated transformation.

[0163] pRGEB33-inPTG10 is used to knock out the PDS gene. When the PDS gene is knocked out, the rice plants will appear albino. Among the transgenic plants, albino seedlings appeared in 12 plants among the 27 T0 generation transgenic plants that knocked out PDS (see Figure 13 ), the results showed that inPTG10-Cas9 has high editing efficiency.

[0164] Using PCR / RE method to detect MPK1, MPK5, PDS editing in transgenic rice. Use the CTAB method to extract the genomic DNA of the transgenic rice leaves, use the genomic DNA of the wild-type rice as a control, use primers (see primer sequence table 7) to amplify the genomic DNA containing the target site, and use restriction enzymes to diges...

Embodiment 3

[0170] Example 3 The intron of inPTG can be placed in different positions of the gene

[0171] The design of inPTG-Cas9 uses the structure of rice endogenous UBI10 gene to express Cas9 and gRNA in the intron. Since the intron position of the gene is not fixed, inPTG can be expressed at different positions of the recombinant gene. In order to verify our hypothesis, we constructed a new structure to insert inPTG into the 3'-UTR region of the Cas9 gene (UBI10p::Cas9-inPTG). At the same time, tRNA (inPTG-tRNA) is added after the last gRNA of PTG to improve the efficiency of cutting the last target site from the intron.

[0172] 1. Carrier Description

[0173] On the basis of the vector pRGEB33, the intron with the BsaI restriction site was replaced with the endogenous intron of UBI10 (SEQ ID: 4), and two BsaI enzymes were inserted into the 3'-UTR region of the recombinant Cas9 gene The intron of the cleavage site (SEQ ID: 9) is used for PTG cloning, and the vector is named pRGE...

Abstract

The invention provides a genome editing method based on a CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeat) system and belongs to the technical field of gene editing. The genome editing method provided by the invention utilizes introns to express guide RNA molecules in the CRISPR genome editing system and adopts a principle that one or more than one tRNA-gRNA or crRNA series unitsare arranged in the introns of an encoded gene, and after the introns form a fusion gene with Cas9 or Cpf1, a promoter can be used for driving. The genome editing method provided by the invention hasthe benefits that a cellular endogenous mRNA splicing system and a cellular endogenous tRNA processing system are skillfully utilized, and other elements are not required to be added, so that not onlyis the safety higher, but also more simplicity can be realized; the synchronous expression of a plurality of guide RNAs with the Cas9 or the Cpf1 is realized by utilizing the one promoter, so that anexisting CRISPR editing system is simplified, moreover, the efficiency and the ability of simultaneously editing multiple target points of the CRISPR editing system are improved.
