Problems solved by technology

In the sgRNA scaffold sequence of Zhang Feng’s experimental group, in addition to 5 consecutive T bases at the end of the sequence, there are also 4 consecutive T bases at the start site of the sgRNA scaffold, that is, the repeat sequence of crRNA. The applicant speculates that this sequence will Affect the early termination of transcription, thereby reducing the transcription of sgRNA scaffold, which indirectly affects the gene editing activity of the Cas9 / sgRNA complex
In order to solve this problem, Zhang Feng’s team changed TTTT to TATT base, but it was identified by T7Endonuclease I digestion, and the results showed that the mutation hardly improved its editing activity mediated by Cas9 (HsuPD, et al., 2013)

Abstract

The invention discloses a high-activity sgRNA framework having two mutated basic groups, a sgRNA framework carrier and an application of the sgRNA framework carrier. Based on a sgRNA scaffold carrier in a Zhangfeng laboratory, the sgRNA framework carrier is realized through changes of two basic groups of a sequence of a framework. A high-activity framework segment sgRNA(TTAT) scaffold obtained through PCR is connected to a carrier pUC19 / hU6-sgRNA through a EcoRI site and a SpeI site, sgRNA scaffold of an original carrier is replaced, and a high-activity sgRNA framework carrier pU6-sgRNA(TTAT)scaffold is obtained; and a BsaI enzyme cutting carrier pU6-sgRNA(TTAT)scaffold is used and connected to a sgRNA sequence in accordance with a target gene through a sticky end, and a carrier pU6-sgRNA(TTAT)-target site is obtained. The genome editing action of mediated Cas9 protein can be notably improved, and the effect of the sgRNA framework carrier is obviously better than that of wild sgRNA framework carrier.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and relates to a carrier, in particular to a double-base mutation high-activity sgRNA skeleton, a sgRNA skeleton carrier and applications thereof. Background technique [0002] The CRISPR / Cas9 system is a third-generation gene editing technology that relies on sgRNA to guide Cas9 nucleases to perform gene editing at specific positions. It is widely used in genome editing and plays an important role in agriculture, life sciences and medicine. The CRISPR / Cas9 system mainly includes two parts: (1) nuclease from Streptococcus (S. pyogenes Cas9 (SpCas9)); (2) Single guide RNA (sgRNA), the sgRNA expression vector contains a 20bp specific variable target site Dots and 82bp fixed sgRNA scaffold (sgRNA scaffold). The sgRNA backbone is a chimera of two RNA molecules (CRISPR RNA (crRNA), trans-activating CRISPR RNA (tracrRNA)) in the artificially constructed CRISPR target recognition system (Jinek, et al., 201...
