Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, due to the large structure and molecular weight of Cas proteins, it is difficult to accommodate Cas protein-based base editors and guidance elements in one vector (such as viral vectors, such as AAV)

Embodiment 1

[0161] Purification of SBDmmo-ADAR2 fusion protein

[0162] 1. Through gene synthesis, ADAR2DD (E488Q / T375G) was synthesized into the yeast expression vector pESC-URA, and SalI and BamHI restriction sites were added. The synthetic sequence is as follows (SEQ ID No: 1):

[0163]

[0164]

[0165]Among them, the bold part is the carrier sequence, the lowercase sequence is the SalI and BamHI restriction site, the italic part is the ADAR2DD (E488Q / T375G) sequence, and the underlined part is the histidine tag sequence.

[0166] The SBDmmo-ADAR2 fusion protein expression vector was constructed based on the above plasmids, and the amplification primer sequences were as follows:

[0167] SBDmmo-F: 5'-CCGctcgagATGATTAGCCCGGAAACCCT-3' (SEQ ID No: 2)

[0168] SBDmmo-R: 5'-CGCggatccGCTTCCACCCTCCTCCACGGAAATGCGGATCGCGGT-3' (SEQ ID No: 3)

[0169] 2. Heterologous expression of SBDmmo-ADAR2 fusion protein in Saccharomyces cerevisiae host BY4741. Pick the single clone carrying the exp...

[0177] RNA single base editing of green fluorescent protein in vitro using SBDmmo-ADAR2 fusion protein and gDNA

[0178] 1. Preparation of GFP (green fluorescent protein) mutant RNA substrate

[0179] The GFP gene was constructed on the pET28a Escherichia coli protein expression vector, and the GFP DNA sequence was point-mutated using mutation primers, so that one of the Gs was mutated into A. The sequence of the mutation primers was as follows:

[0180] GFP-Mut-F: 5'-TGTTCCATAGCCAACACTTGTCACT-3' (SEQ ID No: 5)

[0181] GFP-Mut-R: 5'-GTGTTGGCTATGGAACAGGCAGCTT-3' (SEQ ID No: 6)

[0182] After mutation, a stop codon is introduced inside GFP, so that GFP cannot be completely expressed in the expression host, and the host does not emit green fluorescence.

[0183] Use the RNA transcription kit to obtain the mutated GFP mutant RNA substrate, add DNaseI to remove the residual DNA in the system, and use PCR to verify that there is no DNA residue.

Embodiment 3

[0204] RNA single-base editing of green fluorescent protein in vitro using SBDmmo-ADAR2 fusion protein and sulfur-modified gRNA

[0205] 1. The GFP (green fluorescent protein) mutant RNA substrate is consistent with that in Example 2.

[0206] 2. gRNA (guid RNA) preparation

[0207] Design a single-stranded sulfur-modified gRNA at the GFP mutation site. Referring to the results in Example 1, two single-stranded sulfur-modified gRNAs, Grna-13 and gRNA-7S, were designed. The gRNA is complementary to the GFP sequence as a whole, but at the mutation site A C-A mismatch is formed at the point, the sulfur modification site in the gRNA is located at the 3' end of the mutation site, and a gRNA-0 without sulfur modification was designed as a negative control, the sequence is as follows:

[0208]gRNA-13:5'-ACAAGUGUUGGCCAUGGAACAGGCAG*CUUGCCGGUAGUGC-3' (SEQ ID No: 15)

[0209] gRNA-7S:5'-ACAAGUGUUGGCCAUGGAACAGGCAG*C*U*U*G*C*C*GGUAGUGC-3' (SEQ IDNo: 16)

[0210] gRNA-0: 5'-ACAAGUGUUGGCC...

Abstract

The invention provides a system and a method for editing a target RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) single base. Specifically, the invention provides a base editor, which comprises a targeting element and an editing effect element, the targeting element and the editing effect element form a fusion protein, the targeting element comprises a sulfur modified nucleic acid recognition protein, and the editing effect element is an RNA editing effect protein. The concept of base editing mediated by the sulfur-modified nucleic acid is proposed for the first time, sulfur-modified recognition protein and base editing are combined, and a single base editing system based on the sulfur-modified nucleic acid and the sulfur-modified nucleic acid recognition protein is constructed, so that accurate regulation and control of RNA editing are realized. The base editor disclosed by the invention has the advantages of miniaturization, good targeting property, high base editing efficiency and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and relates to a system and method for target RNA single base editing, in particular to an RNA base editor based on sulfur-modified nucleic acid and sulfur-modified nucleic acid recognition protein and its application. Background technique [0002] Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a genetic information carrier that exists in biological cells and some viruses and viroids. It plays a vital role in the life process. Its main function is to realize the expression of genetic information on proteins. A bridge in the process of transforming genetic information into phenotypes. DNA is the carrier of genetic information, and RNA, as an intermediate product transcribed from DNA, is responsible for directing the production of downstream proteins. A major advantage of RNA editing is its reversibility, whereas changes at the DNA level, in contrast, are permanent changes. Therefore, for disease-associated gene mutation...
