Problems solved by technology

However, because the protein content of rice is easily affected by environmental factors, and the genetic control system is complex, so far, there is still a lack of genetic resources and methods that can be used to improve rice protein traits, which seriously restricts the further improvement of rice quality.

Embodiment 1

[0056] (1) Selection of gRNA target

[0057] According to the gene sequence alignment of OsGluA1, OsGluA2, OsGluA3, OsGluB2, OsGluB6, OsGluB7, OsGluC and OsGluD, sequence segments with high similarity were found.

[0058] The first nucleotide of the OsGluA1 gene sequence,

[0059] According to the principle of CRISPR / Cas9 technology target site design, 4 target sequences sgRNA1, sgRNA2, sgRNA3 and sgRNA4 were selected in the sequence region with high similarity to target the above 8 genes. Different editing types are produced by site-directed cleavage and random repair of CRISPR / Cas9 protein.

[0060] The sequences of sgRNA1, sgRNA2, sgRNA3 and sgRNA4 are shown below (bases in bold are PAM sites).

[0061]

[0062] Among them, sgRNA1 targets the 511th to 533rd nucleotides of the OsGluA1 gene sequence, the 511th to 533rd nucleotides of the OsGluA2 gene sequence and the 508th to 530th nucleotides of the OsGluA3 gene sequence;

[0063] sgRNA2 targets the 874th to 896th nucl...

Embodiment 2

[0107] All the T0 generation seeds obtained from 10 transgene-positive individual plants were planted to form 243 T1 generation plants. DNA was extracted, and a total of 33 individual plants without cas9 tags were screened with primers. The primer sequences are as follows.

[0108] Cas9-F ACCAGACACGAGACGACTAA

[0109] Cas9-R ATCGGTGCGGGCCTCTTC

[0110] For the sequencing analysis of the target gene, single plants with homozygous mutations in the editing sites were selected, and a total of 7 different gene mutation combinations were screened out and named I to VI. The schematic diagram of the mutation combinations is as follows: Figure 10 shown.

[0111] I is the knockout of OsGluA1 and OsGluC, the OsGluA1 gene of I is a mutant gene obtained by deleting the 528th base of the wild-type gene, and the OsGluC gene of I is a mutant gene obtained by deleting the 356th to 357th base of the wild-type gene;

[0112] II is the knockout of OsGluA1, OsGluA2 and OsGluB2, the OsGluA1 gene...

Embodiment 3

[0119] In order to study whether multiple gene mutations can regulate the protein content of rice, the total protein in the grains of wild type and 7 kinds of mutants was extracted and analyzed by SDS-PAGE. The specific method steps are as follows.

[0120] Component protein extraction

[0121] After the seeds are mature, place them at room temperature for 3 months to balance the moisture. After husking, grinding, and sieving, place the rice flour in an oven at 42°C for about 2 days and then accurately weigh 1g (accurate to 0.01g) with a thousandth balance.

[0122] (1) Albumin: put the rice flour to be tested into a 10ml centrifuge tube, add 3ml H 2 O, shake vigorously for 2h, centrifuge at 10000g for 20min, and take the supernatant;

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for reducing the protein content of rice and improving the cooking taste quality by using a CRISPR / Cas9 technology, which is characterized in that a paddy rice protein synthetic gene is mutated through a gene editing technology so as to reduce the expression quantity of the paddy rice protein synthetic gene or block the generation of the protein of the paddy rice protein synthetic gene. Experiments prove that the reduction of the rice glutelin content is more obvious along with the increase of the glutelin synthetic gene knockout number, and the rice total protein is also reduced to different degrees; although the prolamin and the globulin have a certain compensation effect, the rice variety with relatively high total protein content can be quickly reduced to meet the requirement of high-quality rice on the market by about 7% due to the reduction of the glutelin content; the reduction of the protein content of the rice reduces the hardness of the rice, improves the cooking taste quality, and has no negative influence on the processing and appearance quality of the seeds.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of plant genetic engineering, and specifically relates to a method for reducing the protein content of rice and improving the quality of cooking and eating by using CRISPR / Cas9 technology. Background technique [0002] Rice is one of the most important food crops in China and even in the world, and plays a decisive role in ensuring world food security. In recent decades, my country's rice production has made major breakthroughs, ranking among the top among the world's major rice-producing countries. [0003] Starch is the most important component of rice, accounting for more than 80% of rice endosperm. In current production practice, the improvement of the eating quality of rice mainly uses the different allelic variations of the starch synthase GBSSI encoded by Waxy to breed rice varieties with different amylose contents to meet the needs of different consumer groups. For example, the Wxb of japonica rice ...
