Problems solved by technology

But this still has low efficiency, and it is more difficult to pick a single clone. Moreover, if the gene sequence where the non-coding RNA is located is an enhancer or other key element, its loss will inevitably lead to serious experimental bias
[0006] At present, there is no report on a gene knockout method based on gene editing technology that is more efficient, has a wider range of applications, and can be applied to non-coding RNA

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for knocking in a terminator to achieve efficient knockout of a transcription factor (including protein editing genes, non-encoding genes, and the like) by using a gene editing technology. Specifically, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) break is caused behind a transcription start site (TSS) of a gene to be knocked out by using a gene editing technology, meanwhile, a DNA donor with a transcription termination sequence (terminator) is introduced into cells, the doner does not comprise a target gene homologous sequence, the DNA donor is also linearized by using the gene editing technology, then after the terminator is knocked into a TSS of a target gene through a non-homologous repairing way, endogenous transcription of the target gene is terminated ahead of time,and thus knockout of the target gene is achieved. The method is wide in application scope, and all transcription facts can be knocked out by the method. The doner DNA has universality, has high efficiency, and in addition, has resistance genes, and the method is high in efficiency and has certain practical value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a more efficient and wider application range (including non-coding RNA) gene knockout method based on gene editing technology. Background technique [0002] Gene knockout (knockout) is a kind of genetic engineering technology, which makes specific genes lose their function by changing the genetic material of organisms at the genome level. , so as to infer the function of the gene. It is an important tool for functional genome research, and also provides strong technical support for the treatment of some diseases and the improvement of tool organisms. [0003] Traditional gene knockout is a molecular biology technology based on embryonic stem cell technology and gene homologous recombination technology, and its efficiency is relatively low. Gene editing has had as much impact on biomedical research as PCR did 30 years ago. The emergence of gene editing technology provides us with a...
