Problems solved by technology

At present, the price of lean meat in cities in my country has nearly doubled the price of fat meat. Lean-meat pigs with a lean meat rate of more than 60% are favored, and there is still room for further improvement in lean meat rate traits.
On the other hand, the weight of fattening pigs in China is about 120kg at present, and it takes about 180 days for pigs to be slaughtered from birth to slaughter. If the growth rate of pigs can be accelerated, the time for slaughtering pigs to be slaughtered can be shortened

Abstract

The invention discloses a gene editing system for constructing high-quality porcine nuclear transplantation donor cells with high lean meat percentage and fast growth and application of the gene editing system. A CRISPR/Cas9 system for porcine SST-MSTN gene editing comprises a Cas9 expression vector, a gRNA expression vector aiming at a porcine MSTN gene and a gRNA expression vector aiming at a porcine SST gene. According to the invention, the corresponding gRNA expression vectors are designed aiming at different targets of the MSTN gene and the SST gene respectively, and gRNA with relatively high editing efficiency and the expression vector thereof are obtained through screening. The modified efficient Cas9 expression vector is used for gene editing cooperatively, and the editing efficiency is remarkably improved compared with that of an original vector.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and in particular relates to a CRISPR / Cas9 system for double gene editing of MSTN and SST and its application in constructing high-quality pig nuclear transfer donor cells with high lean meat rate and fast growth. Background technique [0002] Pig is one of the earliest domesticated domestic animals in my country, and it has always been an important meat animal for human beings in the long river of history. The Chinese love to eat pork is related to the food culture for thousands of years. Since 2000, pork has accounted for more than 70% of my country's meat consumption, and it is the most important meat consumed in my country. At present, the price of lean meat in cities in my country has nearly doubled the price of fat meat. Lean-meat pigs with a lean meat rate of more than 60% are favored, and there is still room for further improvement in lean meat rate traits. On the other hand, the weight of ...
