Embodiment 1

[0253] Example 1: Validation of the degradation effect of the fusion protein encoded by circular RNA targeting EGFP protein degradation in 293T cells

[0254] 1.1 Experimental methods and steps:

[0255] (1) Construction of plasmids such as EV29-H2B-EGFP

[0256] To construct the target gene that expresses H2B-EGFP and targets H2B-EGFP protein degradation, this step entrusts Suzhou Jinweizhi Biotechnology Co., Ltd. to carry out gene synthesis and cloning. The DNA vector used here for the construction of circular RNA contains T7 promoter, 5' homology arm, 3' intron, second exon E2, 5' spacer, IRES element, H2B-EGFP and targeting Sequence coding region for EGFP protein degradation, downstream spacer region, 5' intron, first exon E1, 3' homology arm, and restriction enzyme cleavage site XbaI for plasmid linearization. The resulting gene fragment for linear mRNA TRNP-EGFP-DASP was ligated into the pUC57 vector.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure belongs to the field of biomedicine, and in particular, the present disclosure relates to a circular RNA molecule, a circularized precursor RNA molecule, a recombinant nucleic acid molecule, a recombinant expression vector, a recombinant host cell, a composition and the targeting thereof in a target protein degradation, and a method for preventing or treating disease. Background technique [0002] Proteins in cells are constantly in the process of metabolic renewal of synthesis, modification and degradation. Maintaining normal protein metabolism is essential for the normal function of life. Degradation or intervention of specific proteins is an important way to study protein function, and it is also an important measure to treat related diseases caused by abnormal protein expression. At present, the degradation or intervention of pathogenic proteins has become one of the most effective disease treatment strategies. [0003] Tra...
