Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for splitting Cas9 and an application. The present invention provides a method for splitting Cas9 protein at a plurality of sites of the Cas9 protein into different segments of amino acid sequences. The Cas9 protein is spCas9(D10A) protein. The split Cas9 protein can be transported into target cells/vectors more conveniently, and can be recombined by meansof intein. Accordingly, the present invention provides proteome and fusion proteome obtained by the method and nucleic acid constructs and vectors for expressing the fusion proteome, and engineering cells. The fusion proteome and the vectors can be used for editing cytogenes, or in targeted positioning or gene expression transcription activation or gene expression transcription inhibition, and used in preparation of pharmaceutical preparations for gene editing.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology and relates to a method for splitting Cas9 and its application. Background technique [0002] The rapid development of gene editing technology, especially CRISPR / Cas9 technology, is expected to directly modify the genome sequence for human purposes. Generally speaking, Cas9 cuts double-stranded DNA near the base pair that needs to be repaired, and uses foreign DNA fragments and the repair mechanism in the body to achieve the purpose of gene editing. Connect the effective deaminase module and the efficiency enhancement module to the appropriate position of Cas9 nickase to obtain a single-base editing system, such as a gland obtained by coupling an adenine deaminase and an engineered adenine deaminase Purine base editors (ABE), ABE system can edit AT base pairs into GC base pairs in cells; coupled with cytosine deaminase and 1 or 2 uracil glycosidase inhibition UGI can obtain cytosin base editors (CBE). Th...
