Problems solved by technology

However, the inherent low efficiency of homologous recombination and the dependence on exogenous donor DNA templates greatly limit its use in many species (Komor et al., 2017a)
At present, although the C-T base substitution mediated by the APOBEC / AID gene family is efficient, the mutation form is relatively simple, and the mutation product is often accompanied by the generation of InDel
Increased risk of gene editing as insertion or deletion mutations often result in frameshift mutations

Embodiment 1

[0195] Example 1 Testing the editing effect of ABE7-10 in rice

[0196]In this example, according to the general method, the present invention synthesized the coding sequences of wild-type ecTadA and its mutant form ecTadA*7.10. They were then linked together by using a linker coding sequence encoding 32 amino acid residues. Next, the coding sequence of the recombinant protein was fused to the N-terminus of the Cas9(D10A) nickase coding sequence with the same linker. Finally, the coding sequence of the VirD2 nuclear localization signal was ligated to the C-terminus of the Cas9(D10A) nickase to form ABE7-10. ABE7-10 was then cloned into a binary vector under the control of the maize ubiquitin promoter, and the sgRNA was driven by the rice U6 promoter to form the vector pRABEsp-OsU6 ( figure 1 A).

[0197] To test the editing effect of ABE7-10 in rice, we selected IPA1 (OsSPL14), which regulates the ideal plant type of rice, as the target gene ( figure 1 B).

[0198] The pr...

Embodiment 2

[0212] Example 2 Testing the editing ability of the adenine base editing system in rice

[0213] In order to further test the editing ability of the adenine base editing system in rice, further experiments were performed on the SLR1 locus. SLR1 encodes a DELLA protein in rice that acts as a repressor in the GA signaling pathway.

[0214] The present invention designs an sgRNA (sgRNA2) targeting the TVHYNP domain of SLR1. The primers corresponding to the sgRNA2 vector construction are sgRNA2F and sgRNA2R in Table 3. The T-C base substitution at position 6 of Protospacer can lead to the V92A substitution in the TVHYNP motif ( figure 1 D).

[0215] From the obtained 40 transgenic lines, 5 lines had the expected T-C substitution at position 6 of the protospacer ( figure 1 E, 1H). Target region amplification primers are SLR-seq-F and SLR-seq-R in Table 3. Since there is only one editable T in the base editing window of SLR1, no other mutant forms were found in the target locus...

Embodiment 3

[0216] Example 3 Detection of whether the base editing system of the present invention can simultaneously edit two or more sites in the rice genome

[0217] In order to detect whether the base editing system of the present invention can simultaneously edit two or more sites in the rice genome, a third sgRNA (sgRNAs3) was designed to simultaneously target the OsmiR156 binding site of OsSPL16 and OsSPL18 ( image 3 , A and B). The primers corresponding to the sgRNA3 vector construction are sgRNA3F and sgRNA3R in Table 3. In addition, an off-target site with 100% match to the sgRNA3 sequence was found in the intron of the LOC_Os02g24720 gene ( image 3 , A and B). Therefore, sgRNA3 can simultaneously target three sites in the rice genome. The present invention has carried out genotype identification on these three target sites in 21 transgenic lines. Four transgenic lines each displayed T-C substitutions in the OsSPL16 and OsSPL18 targeted regions. However, only one line con...

Abstract

The present invention provides a method for site-directed replacement of a plant genome, and particularly relates to a nucleic acid construct. The nucleic acid construct of a specific structure is adopted to successfully achieve sgRNA-directed base site-directed mutagenesis in plants for the first time (for example, T mutates into C, or A mutates into G).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a method for site-directed replacement of plant genomes. Background technique [0002] In eukaryotes, precise modification of the genome at single-base resolution is primarily accomplished through homologous recombination. However, the inherent low efficiency of homologous recombination and the dependence on exogenous donor DNA templates greatly limit its use in many species (Komor et al., 2017a). At present, although the C-T base substitution mediated by the APOBEC / AID gene family is efficient, the form of mutation is relatively simple, and the mutation product is often accompanied by the generation of InDel. Since insertion or deletion mutations often result in frameshift mutations, there is an increased risk of gene editing. [0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need in the art to develop a method that can efficiently and accurately realize T-C (or A-G) transformation in plant ...
