Problems solved by technology

In the prior art, homologous recombination technology is usually used to knock the fluorescent reporter gene into the target gene. This method is easy to operate, but the expression of the fluorescent reporter gene is limited, the fluorescent signal is poor, and the fluorescent labeling effect is not good.

[0055] Construction method of gene editing plasmid pCRISPR::EtA plasmid containing gRNA

[0056] 1. According to the Eimeria tenella (E.tenella) gene sequence (ETH_00017055) information, design gRNA, construct sgRNA vector, and the designed primer is CRISPR-EtA-F (containing EtA target-specific gRNA sequence) (SEQ ID NO: 2) and CRISPR-R (GOI-gRNA-Rv) (SEQ ID NO: 3).

[0057] 2. Using CRISPR-EtA-F and CRISPR-R as primers, pSAG1::Cas9-U6::sgUPRT plasmid as a template, use the Q5 point mutation kit to perform PCR reaction, then perform KLD reaction on the PCR product, and then KLD mixture Transform Stbl3 competent cells, and then identify positive clones to obtain pCRISPR::EtA plasmid.

[0058] The sequencing result of the pCRISPR::EtA plasmid is shown in SEQ ID NO: 4, and the sequencing result shows that the gRNA has been integrated into the plasmid. The results of sequencing indicated that a suitable pCRISPR::EtA plasmid was obtained.

Abstract

The invention provides a construction method for coccidia expressing exogenous fluorescent protein, and belongs to the technical field of gene engineering. The construction method for coccidia expressing exogenous fluorescent protein comprises the following steps: designing gRNA for a target gene of the coccidiosis, and constructing a gene editing plasmid containing the gRNA; constructing a homologous recombinant plasmid containing a target gene and an mCherry gene; co-transfecting the gene editing plasmid and the homologous recombinant plasmid into sporozoites of coccidia; and infecting animals with the transfected sporozoites, and performing screening to obtain the coccidia expressing exogenous fluorescent protein. A fluorescent protein mCherry gene and a screening gene are knocked intoa coccidia genome by combining a gene editing technology and a homologous recombination technology, and the constructed coccidia can stably and efficiently express a fluorescent signal. According to the construction method, not only can the coccidia expressing the exogenous fluorescent protein be successfully constructed, but also fluorescent protein expression is stable and high in efficiency, and the construction method is suitable for research on growth, genetic engineering or drug screening of coccidia.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of genetic engineering, and in particular relates to a construction method for expressing exogenous fluorescent protein coccidian. Background technique [0002] mCherry is a red fluorescent dye used for tracking, such as molecular labeling and cellular component localization. mCherry is a protein isolated from coral (Discosoma), and its maximum excitation light and emission light are 587nm and 610nm, respectively. mCherry has advantages over other fluorescent protein tags due to its color and photostability of monomeric molecules. [0003] mCherry has high sensitivity, is easy to detect, and is used for in vivo detection, and is not destructive to cells, organelles, etc.; it is not limited by different developmental stages of insects in vivo; it does not require any substrate and exogenous cofactors to participate; in vivo Color changes are also sometimes observed under natural light. [0004] In the stud...
