Embodiment
[0049] In this example, the mouse Hkdc1 gene was knocked out by CRISPR-Cas9 technology to construct an animal model of retinitis pigmentosa disease, as follows.
[0050] 1. Design the gRNA sequence targeting knockout of the HHkdc1 gene, and obtain the F0 generation of Hkdc1 knockout mice
[0051] Design the gRNA target site sequence for the second exon region of the mouse Hkdc1 gene, as follows:
[0052] 5'-CCTGTATCACATGCGGCTCTCGG-3' (SEQ ID NO. 1).
[0053] The RNA was synthesized in vitro, microinjected into fertilized mouse eggs together with Cas9 endonuclease, and after maturation, the first founder mouse (founder) with gene mutation was obtained.
[0054] Schematic diagram of the structure of the gRNA sequence targeting the Hkdc1 gene figure 1 shown.
[0055] 2. Sequencing verification of Hkdc1 gene knockout results
[0056] Using the genomic DNA of the mouse, the fragment near the CRISPR target site was sequenced, and it was determined that the first builder mouse ha...

[0112] Using Example 1 to Construct a Hkdc1 Gene Knockout Mouse Model for Research on Retinal Degenerative Diseases
[0113] 1. Frozen sections were carried out on the retina of the knockout mouse, and analyzed using immunohistochemical staining (the immunohistochemical method is the same as in Example 1), and it was found that at the age of 9 months, the homozygous Hkdc1 gene knockout (KO) Abnormal trafficking of retinal rhodopsin (Rhodopsin) in mice: accumulation in photoreceptor cell inner nodes and cell bodies ( Figure 5 ). Rhodopsin is the main light-sensing protein, which is extremely critical to the formation of vision, and its mislocalization will lead to apoptosis of photoreceptor cells. Therefore, it can be known that Hkdc1 gene plays an important role in retinal degenerative diseases.
[0114] 2. The results of H&E staining showed the progressive apoptosis of retinal photoreceptor cells in KO mice (homozygous Hkdc1 knockout mice)
[0115] Paraffin sections and he...
