Embodiment 1
[0196] Example 1 Screening Enhanced Gene Editing Tool
[0197] Synthesize different types of double-stranded DNA binding domains (HMG-D and Sac7d), respectively, by designing 5 different length linkers (L1, L2, L3, L4 and L5) (Table 1), and fusion at the N-terminal of Cas9 and C-terminal, compared on two endogenous targets (VEGF and HBG1 / 2), according to the statistics of the results, the enhanced gene editing tools obtained by this series of optimizations are scored (in the cases where the effects are all very good Based on the relative score) (bad: A; not good: AA; better: AAA; good: AAAA; very good: AAAAA), the results are as follows: (Note: C means Cas9; L1-L5 means different linkers ; H indicates HMG-D domain; S indicates sac7d.)
[0198] A: S-L1-C, H-L1-C
[0199] AA:S-L2-C,S-L3-C,S-L4-C,H-L2-C
[0200] AAA: H-L4-C-L4-S, H-L4-C-L5-S
[0201] AAAA:H-L3-C,C-L4-S,C-L5-S,C-L4-H,H-L4-C-L4-H,H-L4-C-L5-H,H-L4- H-L4-C,C-L5-H-L5-H
[0202] AAAAA:H-L4-C,C-L5-H

Embodiment 2
[0205] Example 2 Improves the gene editing efficiency of SpCas9
[0206] The obtained enhanced gene editing tool (that is, the fusion protein of the present invention, such as HMG-D-L4-SpCas9) is further compared in terms of effects on more endogenous targets, and 293T cells are transfected by an equimolar ratio , it was found that compared with SpCas9 in the compared targets, the editing efficiency of the fusion protein of the present invention was increased by more than 20% (or 60%, or 80%), up to 2 times ( figure 2 ).
Embodiment 3
[0207] Example 3 Improves the gene editing efficiency of Cas9 (such as: SaCas9) derived from other species
[0208] By constructing the HMG-D-L4-SaCas9 expression vector and transfecting 293T cells at an equimolar ratio for the endogenous target, it was found that the editing efficiency of SaCas9 after the fusion of HMG-D also had a similar effect. ( image 3 )
