Embodiment 1

[0038] An embodiment of the U1-snRNA single-stranded molecule of the present invention targets the position downstream of the splice donor site of exon 12 of the TPP1 gene, and the DNA base sequence corresponding to the 165bp single-stranded molecule is such as ex12Mut, Cln2- 1. As shown in Cln2-9 or Cln2-16, wherein, the underline shows the splice donor site with the TPP1 gene Exon12 or the intron sequence downstream of the splice donor site (as shown in SEQ ID NO.19, which includes the Exon12 splice donor site ATA is a sequence complementary to the bases on the wild-type TPP1 gene, so as to facilitate the transcription initiation of U1-snRNA. The transcribed U1-snRNA single-stranded molecules, for example, U1-snRNA Cln2-16 compared with SEQ ID NO.1, just replace T with U; correspondingly, U1-snRNA ex12 Mut, Cln2-9, Cln2- Compared with the RNA sequence of 16 and SEQ ID NO.2-4, just replace T with U.

Abstract

The invention discloses a U1-snRNA for repairing abnormal splicing of the TPP1 gene and a carrier containing a base sequence expressing the U1-snRNA, wherein the base sequence expressing the U1-snRNA includes the U1-snRNA starting base in sequence base, a sequence complementary to the TPP1 gene Exon12 splice donor site or downstream intron sequence, and a U1-snRNA downstream sequence, the U1-snRNA downstream sequence is shown in SEQ ID NO.20. The U1-snRNA of the present invention is derived from a nucleic acid molecule prepared for the splicing donor site of the TPP1 gene or the intron sequence downstream of the splicing donor site; U1-snRNA technology is used to target the target gene as a targeted drug , to repair during the splicing process of Pre-mRNA, thereby effectively inhibiting abnormal mRNA expression caused by splice site mutations. It has the advantages of strong specificity, high efficiency, and few side effects, and can make up for the lack of current treatment methods for diseases caused by abnormal splicing. It may become a new method for treating specific types of diseases in the near future.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of gene repair, in particular to U1-snRNA for repairing abnormal splicing of TPP1 gene Pre-mRNA and its application. Background technique [0002] Previous studies have found that Pre-mRNA (mRNA precursor) splicing can associate mutations with diseases through extensive analysis of genome-wide data and cell line data. A large number of mutations have been found to regulate genes in neurological diseases such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and multiple sclerosis by affecting pre-mRNA splicing. Splice site mutations account for about 10% of the total number of disease-related mutations, and the role of pre-mRNA splicing in disease occurrence needs attention. [0003] Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis, NCLs) is a group of different types of lysosomal storage disorders, is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disease, about every 100,000 newborns There are 2-4 cases.
