example 1

[0148] Example 1. Construction of plasmid pBM353

[0149] Plasmid pBM353 was designed to simultaneously disrupt parts of the ykoV (ligD) and ykoU (ku) genes in B. subtilis. Since these two genes are in the same operon, this plasmid was designed to delete the C-terminus from ykoV (retained amino acids 1-174; total protein is 311 amino acids) and remove the ku gene (612 amino acids full-length protein). remove the first 28 amino acids.

[0150]According to the aforementioned method (Pitcher, D.G., N.A.Saunders and R.J.Owen, Rapid extraction of bacterial genomic DNA with guanidium thiocyanate [quick extraction of bacterial genomic DNA with guanidinium thiocyanate]. Letters in Applied Microbiology [Application Microbiology Newsletter], 1989.8 (4 ): pp. 151-156) Isolation of genomic DNA from Bacillus subtilis 168.Δ.4. A 555 bp fragment of the Bacillus subtilis 168.Δ.4 chromosome was amplified by PCR using primers 1213241 and 1213243 shown below.

[0161] Example 2. Construction of plasmid pBM354

[0162] A temperature-sensitive Bacillus / E. coli shuttle vector based on pShV002, which does not contain a BsaI restriction site, was generated using site-directed mutagenesis. Use the following primers for the PCR reaction:

[0163] Primer 1213365 (SEQ ID NO:5): 5'-gctgaataaaagatacgaagacctctcttgtatct

[0164] Primer 1213366 (SEQ ID NO:6): 5'-agatacaagagagggtcttcgtatcttttattcagc

[0165] Plasmids were amplified by PCR using the Agilent Technologies Quickchange II XL Site-Directed Mutagenesis Kit (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA). The PCR amplification reaction mixture contained 1 μl of 21 ng / μl pShV002, 1 μl of sense primer (50 pmol / μl), 1 μl of antisense primer (50 pmol / μl), 5 μl of 10X reaction buffer, 1 μl of dNTP mix (each 10 mM ), 3 μl of Quick solution, 37 μl of water and 1 μl (2.5 U / μl) of PfuUltra HF DNA polymerase. Fragments were amplified using an Eppendorf Mastercycler thermal cycler with the following sett...

[0166] Example 3. Construction of plasmid pBM363b

[0167] A synthetic DNA fragment containing the S. pyogenes cas9 gene was obtained from GeneArt (Thermo Fischer Scientific, Grand Island, NY); the DNA sequence is provided in SEQ ID NO: encoding SEQ ID NO:8 7 in. This fragment was cloned into the temperature sensitive Bacillus / E. coli shuttle vector pBM354 as follows.

[0168] The following primers were used to amplify the cas9 gene:

[0169] Primer 1213801 (SEQ ID NO:9): 5'-gaattgggtaccgggccccccctcgagtcgacatgccggtactgccg

[0170] Primer 1213802 (SEQ ID NO: 10): 5'-cgatatcaagcttatcgataccgtcgacgtgactggcgatgctgtcgg

[0171] The corresponding DNA fragments were amplified by PCR using the Expand High Fidelity PLUS PCR system (Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany). The PCR amplification reaction mixture contained 1 μl of 0.05 μg / μl synthetic DNA, 1 μl of sense primer (50 pmol / μl), 1 μl of antisense primer (50 pmol / μl), 10 μl of DNA with 15 mM MgCl 25X PCR buffer, 1 μl of dNTP ...

Abstract

The present invention relates to methods for modifying the genome of a Bacillus host cell by employing a Class II Cas9 enzyme with only one active nuclease domain, e.g. the S. pyogenes Cas9 nickase, together with a suitable guide RNA for each target sequence to generate a site-specific nick in at least one genome target sequence followed by the repair of the nick(s) via integration of one or moremodified modified donor part of the Bacillus host cell genome through classical double homologous recombination on each side of the nick(s).

Description

[0001] References to Sequence Listings [0002] This application contains a Sequence Listing in computer readable form, which is hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] We have observed that expression of the intact Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 enzyme in Bacillus subtilis host cells is lethal. However, by expressing a single-strand cleavage variant of the S. pyogenes Cas9 enzyme called Cas9 nickase (Cas9n), we successfully edited the B. subtilis genome with nearly 50% efficiency. Based on these results, we propose that the class II Cas9 nickase system could be adopted as a genome editing tool in other Bacillus species. [0004] The present invention relates to a method for modifying the genome of a Bacillus host cell by employing a class II Cas9 enzyme having only one active nuclease domain, such as the Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 nickase, and for each target sequence suitable guide RNA to create site-specific nicking in at least one genomic target sequence...
