[0003] Sequence Listing

[0005] Cas enzymes and their associated clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) guide RNAs appear to be universal (~45% of bacteria, ~84% of archaea) components of the prokaryotic immune system, used to protect such microorganisms from non-self nucleic acids, such as infectious viruses and plasmids, through CRISPR-RNA-guided nucleic acid cleavage. While the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) elements encoding CRISPR RNA elements may be relatively conserved in structure and length, their CRISPR-associated (Cas) proteins are highly diverse, containing a variety of nucleic acid interaction domains. Although CRISPR DNA elements were observed as early as 1987, the programmable endonuclease cleavage capabilities of the CRISPR / Cas complex were not recognized until recently, leading to the use of recombinant CRISPR / Cas systems in various DNA manipulation and gene editing applications.

The upward shift of the labeled band in lane 3 indicates that TnsB binds to the RE sequence, indicating that the RE sequence contains an active RE transposition sequence.

The polynucleotide can be exogenous or endogenous to the cell. The polynucleotide can be present in a free environment. The polynucleotide can be a gene or a fragment thereof. The polynucleotide can be DNA. The polynucleotide can be RNA. The polynucleotide can have any three-dimensional structure and can perform any function. In a polynucleotide, when T is mentioned, T means U (uracil) in RNA and T (thymine) in DNA. The polynucleotide can include one or more analogs (e.g., altered backbones, sugars or nucleobases). If present, modifications to the nucleotide structure can be imparted before or after assembling the polymer. Some non-limiting examples of analogs include: 5-bromouracil, peptide nucleic acids, heterologous nucleic acids, morpholinos, locked nucleic acids, glycerol nucleic acids, threose nucleic acids, dideoxynucleotides, cordycepin, 7-deaza-GTP, fluorophores (e.g., rhodamine or fluorescein linked to a sugar), thiol-containing nucleotides, biotin-linked nucleotides, fluorescent base analogs, CpG islands, methyl-7-guanosine, methylated nucleotides, inosine, thiouridine, pseudouridine, dihydrouridine, braided nucleotides, and wyosine.

[0184] The term "transfection" or "transfected" refers to the introduction of nucleic acid into a cell by a non-viral or viral-based method. The nucleic acid molecule can be a gene sequence encoding a complete protein or a functional portion thereof. See, for example, Sambrook et al., 1989, Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, 18.1-18.88.

[0185] The terms "peptide", "polypeptide" and "protein" are used interchangeably herein to refer to a polymer of at least two amino acid residues joined by a peptide bond. This term does not indicate the specific length of the polymer, nor is it intended to imply or distinguish whether the peptide is produced using recombinant technology, chemical or enzymatic synthesis, or is naturally present. The term is applicable to naturally occurring amino acid polymers and amino acid polymers including at least one modified amino acid. In some cases, the polymer may be interspersed with non-amino acids. The term encompasses amino acid chains of any length, including full-length proteins and proteins with or without secondary and / or tertiary structures (e.g., domains). The term also encompasses amino acid polymers that have been modified; for example, by disulfide bond formation, glycosylation, lipidation, acetylation, phosphorylation, oxidation, and any other operations, such as conjugation with a labeling component. As used herein, the terms "amino acid" and "amino acids" refer to natural and non-natural amino acids, including but not limited to modified amino acids and amino acid analogs. Modified amino acids may include natural and non-natural amino acids that have been chemically modified to include groups or chemical moieties that are not naturally present on amino acids. Amino acid analogs may refer to amino acid derivatives. The term "amino acid" encompasses both D-amino acids and L-amino acids.

[0186] As used herein, "non-natural" may refer to nucleic acids or polypeptide sequences not found in natural nucleic acids or proteins. Non-natural may refer to affinity tags. Non-natural may refer to fusions. Non-natural may refer to naturally occurring nucleic acids or polypeptide sequences including mutations, insertions and / or deletions. Non-natural sequences may exhibit and / or encode activities (e.g., enzymatic activity, methyltransferase activity, acetyltransferase activity, kinase activity, ubiquitination activity, etc.) that may also be exhibited by nucleic acids and / or polypeptide sequences fused to non-natural sequences. Non-natural nucleic acids or polypeptide sequences may be connected to naturally occurring nucleic acids or polypeptide sequences (or variants thereof) by genetic engineering to produce chimeric nucleic acids and / or polypeptide sequences encoding chimeric nucleic acids and / or polypeptides.

[0187] As used herein, the term "promoter" refers to a regulatory DNA region that controls polynucleotide (e.g., gene) transcription or expression and can be located adjacent to or overlaps with a nucleotide or nucleotide region that initiates RNA transcription. A promoter may contain a specific DNA sequence that binds a protein factor (commonly referred to as a transcription factor) that promotes the binding of RNA polymerase to DNA, thereby causing gene transcription. 'Basic promoter' (also referred to as 'core promoter') may refer to a promoter containing all basic elements that promote the transcriptional expression of an operably linked polynucleotide. A eukaryotic basal promoter may contain a TATA box or a CAAT box. In certain embodiments, different promoters guide genes in different tissues or cell types, or at different developmental stages, or in response to different environmental or physiological conditions or inducer molecules. Promoters that make genes expressed in most cell types at most times are generally referred to as "constitutive promoters." Promoters that make genes expressed in specific cells and tissue types are generally referred to as "cell-specific promoters" or "tissue-specific promoters," respectively. Promoters that make genes expressed at specific stages of development or cell differentiation are generally referred to as "developmental-specific promoters" or "cell differentiation-specific promoters." Promoters that are induced and result in gene expression following exposure or treatment of cells with an agent, biomolecule, chemical, ligand, light, etc. that induces the promoter are generally referred to as "inducible promoters" or "regulatable promoters." It is further recognized that in some embodiments, promoter activity is identical for DNA fragments of different lengths, as the exact boundaries of regulatory sequences have not been completely defined in most cases.

[0188] As used herein, the term "expression" refers to the process of transcribing a nucleic acid sequence or polynucleotide from a DNA template (e.g., transcribed into mRNA or other RNA transcripts) and / or the subsequent translation of the transcribed mRNA into a peptide, polypeptide, or protein. Transcripts and encoded polypeptides may be collectively referred to as "gene products." If the polynucleotide is derived from genomic DNA, expression may include splicing of mRNA in eukaryotic cells.

[0189] As used herein, "operably connected", "operably connected", "operably connected" or its grammatical equivalent refers to genetic elements, such as the arrangement of promoters, enhancers, polyadenylation sequences, etc., wherein the operation (e.g., movement or activation) of a first genetic element has some influence on a second genetic element. The influence on the second genetic element can be but need not be the same type as the operation of the first genetic element. For example, if the movement of the first element causes the activation of the second element, the two genetic elements are operably connected. The influence on the second element can be but need not be the same type as the operation of the first element. For example, if the movement of the first element causes the activation of the second element, the two elements are operably connected. For example, if a regulating element helps to start the transcription of a coding sequence, a regulating element that can include a promoter and / or enhancer sequence is operably connected to the coding region. As long as this functional relationship is maintained, there can be an insertion residue between the regulating element and the coding region.

[0190] As used herein, "vector" refers to a macromolecule or macromolecular association that includes or associates with a polynucleotide and can be used to mediate the delivery of a polynucleotide to a cell. Examples of vectors include plasmids, viral vectors, liposomes, and other gene delivery vehicles. Vectors typically include genetic elements (e.g., regulatory elements) that are operably linked to a gene to promote expression of the gene in a target.

[0191] As used herein, "expression cassette" and "nucleic acid cassette" are used interchangeably to refer to a combination of nucleic acid sequences or elements that are expressed together or operably linked for expression. In some cases, an expression cassette refers to a combination of regulatory elements and one or more genes to which they are operably linked for expression.

[0192] A "functional fragment" of a DNA or protein sequence refers to a fragment that retains a biological activity (function or structure) substantially similar to that of the full-length DNA or protein sequence. The biological activity of a DNA sequence may be its ability to affect expression in a manner attributed to the full-length sequence.

[0193] The terms "engineered", "synthetic" and "artificial" are used interchangeably herein to refer to objects that are modified by human intervention. For example, the terms may refer to non-naturally occurring polynucleotides or polypeptides. Engineered peptides may have, but need not have, low sequence identity (e.g., less than 50% sequence identity, less than 25% sequence identity, less than 10% sequence identity, less than 5% sequence identity, less than 1% sequence identity) with naturally occurring human proteins. For example, the VPR and VP64 domains are synthetic transactivation domains. According to non-limiting examples: nucleic acids can be modified by changing their sequence to a sequence that does not exist in nature; nucleic acids can be modified by connecting them to nucleic acids that are not associated with them in nature, so that the connection product has a function that does not exist in the original nucleic acid; engineered nucleic acids can be synthesized in vitro with sequences that do not exist in nature; proteins can be modified by changing their amino acid sequences to sequences that do not exist in nature; engineered proteins can acquire new functions or properties. An "engineered" system includes at least one engineered component.

[0194] The term "tracrRNA" or "tracr sequence" means trans-activating CRISPR RNA. TracrRNA interacts with CRISPR (cr) RNA to form a guide nucleic acid (e.g., guide RNA or gRNA) that can hybridize with a target nucleic acid and thereby guides the relevant nuclease to the target nucleic acid. If tracrRNA is engineered, it may have about 5%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95% or 100% sequence identity and / or sequence similarity with a wild-type exemplary tracrRNA sequence (e.g., from Streptococcus pyogenes (S.pyogenes), Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus), etc. or SEQ ID NO: *_* tracrRNA). TracrRNA may refer to a modified form of tracrRNA, which may include nucleotide changes, such as deletions, insertions or substitutions, variants, mutations or chimeras. TracrRNA can refer to a nucleic acid that is at least about 60% identical to a wild-type exemplary tracrRNA sequence (e.g., tracrRNA from Streptococcus pyogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, etc.) over a stretch of at least 6 consecutive nucleotides. For example, the tracrRNA sequence can be at least about 60% identical, at least about 65% identical, at least about 70% identical, at least about 75% identical, at least about 80% identical, at least about 85% identical, at least about 90% identical, at least about 95% identical, at least about 98% identical, at least about 99% identical, or 100% identical to a wild-type exemplary tracrRNA sequence (e.g., tracrRNA from Streptococcus pyogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, etc.) over a stretch of at least 6 consecutive nucleotides. Type II tracrRNA sequences can be predicted on genomic sequences by identifying regions that are complementary to a portion of a repeat sequence in an adjacent CRISPR array.

[0195] As used herein, "guide nucleic acid" or "guide polynucleotide" refers to a nucleic acid that can hybridize with a target nucleic acid and thereby guide the relevant nuclease to the target nucleic acid. The guide nucleic acid can be RNA (guide RNA or gRNA). The guide nucleic acid can be DNA. The guide nucleic acid can be a mixture of RNA and DNA. The guide nucleic acid can include crRNA or tracrRNA or a combination of the two. The guide nucleic acid can be engineered. The guide nucleic acid can be programmed to specifically bind to the target nucleic acid. A portion of the target nucleic acid can be complementary to a portion of the guide nucleic acid.

Conservative substitutions can be completed by replacing each other with amino acids having similar hydrophobicity, polarity, and R chain length. Additionally or alternatively, by comparing the alignment sequences of homologous proteins from different species, conservative substitutions can be identified by locating the amino acid residues (e.g., non-conservative residues) that have mutated between species without changing the basic function of the encoded protein. Such conservatively substituted variants may include variants with at least about 20%, at least about 25%, at least about 30%, at least about 35%, at least about 40%, at least about 45%, at least about 50%, at least about 55%, at least about 60%, at least about 65%, at least about 70%, at least about 75%, at least about 80%, at least about 85%, at least about 90%, at least about 91%, at least about 92%, at least about 93%, at least about 94%, at least about 95%, at least about 96%, at least about 97%, at least about 98% or at least about 99% identity with any of the systems described herein. In some embodiments, such conservatively substituted variants are functional variants. Such functional variants may encompass sequences with substitutions so that the activity of the key active site residues of the endonuclease is not destroyed. In some embodiments, the functional variants of any system in the systems described herein lack substitutions of at least one of the conservative or functional residues shown in Figures 4 or 5.

In some cases, transposons transport additional "cargo DNA" excised from the genome. Transposons include, for example, retrotransposons, DNA transposons, autonomous and non-autonomous transposons, and class III transposons. Transposon nucleic acid sequences include, for example, genes encoding homologous transposases, one or more transposase recognition sequences, or a combination thereof. In some cases, these transposons are different in the nucleic acid type of transposition, the type of repetition at the end of the transposon, the type of cargo to be carried, or the transposition mode (i.e., self-repair or host repair) of the transposition. As used herein, the term "transposase (transposase or transposases)" refers to an enzyme that is combined with the recognition sequence of a transposon and catalyzes its movement to another part of the genome.

In addition to the TnsABC transposase, the Tn7 element can encode specialized target site selection proteins, TnsD and TnsE. In combination with TnsABC, the sequence-specific DNA binding protein TnsD guides transposition to a conserved site known as the "Tn7 attachment site," i.e., attTn7.

In some cases, the IF type CRISPR system includes crRNA, the crRNA including an 8-nt 5' handle for Cas8 and / or Cas5 binding, a 32-nt spacer for target identification by 7 copies of six Cas, or a 20-nt 3' hairpin for Cas6 binding and pre-crRNA processing. In some cases, the F type system utilizes a 5'-CC PAM on a non-target strand for target binding.

[0219] As used herein, the term "functional domain (FD)" refers to a small protein that can promote protein-DNA interaction. Types of functional domains include, but are not limited to, DNA binding domains ("DBDs") and chromatin regulatory domains ("CMDs").

[0235] Overview

[0236] The discovery of new Cas enzymes with unique functions and structures may offer the potential to further disrupt deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) editing technologies, thereby improving speed, specificity, functionality, and ease of use. Relative to the predicted prevalence of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) systems in microorganisms and the sheer diversity of microbial species, there are relatively few functionally characterized CRISPR / Cas enzymes in the literature. This is in part because a large number of microbial species may not be easily cultured under laboratory conditions. Metagenomic sequencing of natural environmental niches representing a large number of microbial species may offer the potential to substantially increase the number of new CRISPR / Cas systems documented and accelerate the discovery of new oligonucleotide editing functions. A recent example of the fruitfulness of this approach was demonstrated by the discovery of the CasX / CasY CRISPR system in 2016 through metagenomic analysis of natural microbial communities.

[0237] The CRISPR / Cas system is an RNA-guided nuclease complex that has been described as acting as an adaptive immune system in microorganisms. In its natural environment, the CRISPR / Cas system occurs in a CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) operator or locus, which generally includes two parts: (i) an array of short repeat sequences (30-40 bp) separated by equally short spacer sequences, which encode RNA-based targeting elements; and (ii) an ORF encoding a Cas that encodes a nuclease polypeptide guided by the RNA-based targeting elements as well as an auxiliary protein / enzyme. Efficient nuclease targeting of a specific target nucleic acid sequence generally requires both: (i) complementary hybridization between the first 6-8 nucleic acids of the target (target seed) and the crRNA guide; and (ii) the presence of a protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) sequence within a defined vicinity of the target seed (the PAM is typically a sequence that is not commonly represented within the host genome). Depending on the exact function and organization of the system, CRISPR systems are generally divided into 2 categories, 5 types, and 16 subtypes based on shared functional properties and evolutionary similarities (see Figure 1 ).

[0238] Class 1 CRISPR-Cas systems have large multi-subunit effector complexes and include types I, III, and IV.

[0239] Type I CRISPR-Cas systems are considered to have medium complexity in terms of components. In type I CRISPR-Cas systems, the array of RNA targeting elements is transcribed into long precursor crRNA (pre-crRNA), which is processed at the repeat element to release short mature crRNA, when followed by a suitable short consensus sequence called protospacer adjacent motif (PAM), the short mature crRNA guides the nuclease complex to the nucleic acid target. This treatment is carried out by the endoribonuclease subunit (Cas6) of the large endonuclease complex called cascade, and the endonuclease complex also includes the nuclease (Cas3) protein component of the nuclease complex guided by crRNA. Cas I nuclease mainly serves as DNA nuclease.

[0240] Type III CRISPR systems may be characterized by the presence of a central nuclease called Cas10 and repeat-associated mysterious proteins (RAMPs) including Csm or Cmr protein subunits. As in type I systems, mature crRNAs are processed by pre-crRNA using a Cas6-like enzyme. Unlike type I and type II systems, type III systems appear to target and cleave DNA-RNA duplexes (such as DNA chains used as templates for RNA polymerases).

[0241] Type IV CRISPR-Cas systems have an effector complex that includes a highly reduced large subunit nuclease (csf1), two genes for the Cas5 (csf3) and Cas7 (csf2) groups of RAMP proteins, and in some cases genes for predicted small subunits; such systems are often found on endogenous plasmids.

[0242] Class 2 CRISPR-Cas systems typically have single-polypeptide multi-domain nuclease effectors and include types II, V, and VI.

[0243] Type II CRISPR-Cas systems are considered to be the simplest in terms of components. In type II CRISPR-Cas systems, the CRISPR array is processed into mature crRNA without the presence of special endonuclease subunits, but requires a small trans-encoded crRNA (tracrRNA), whose region is complementary to the array repeat sequence; tracrRNA interacts with its corresponding effector nuclease (e.g., Cas9) and repeat sequence to form a precursor dsRNA structure, which is cut by endogenous RNase III to generate a mature effector enzyme for both load tracrRNA and crRNA. Cas II nucleases are recorded as DNA nucleases. Type 2 effectors generally show a structure including a RuvC-like endonuclease domain, which adopts an RNase H fold, wherein an unrelated HNH nuclease domain is inserted into the fold of the RuvC-like nuclease domain. The RuvC-like domain is responsible for the cutting of the target (e.g., crRNA complementary) DNA chain, and the HNH domain is responsible for the cutting of the replaced DNA chain.

[0244] The V-type CRISPR-Cas system is characterized by a nuclease effector (e.g., Cas12) structure similar to that of the type II effector including a RuvC-like domain. Similar to type II, most (but not all) V-type CRISPR systems use tracrRNA to process pre-crRNA into mature crRNA; however, unlike the type II system that requires RNase III to cut pre-crRNA into multiple crRNAs, the V-type system is able to use the effector nuclease itself to cut pre-crRNA. Like the type II CRISPR-Cas system, the V-type CRISPR-Cas system is again recorded as a DNA nuclease. Unlike the type II CRISPR-Cas system, some V-type enzymes (e.g., Cas12a) appear to have a strong single-stranded nonspecific deoxyribonuclease activity activated by the first crRNA-directed cutting of the double-stranded target sequence.

[0245] Type VI CRIPSR-Cas systems have RNA-guided RNA endonucleases. The single polypeptide effector of type VI systems (e.g., Cas13) includes two HEPN ribonuclease domains, rather than RuvC-like domains. Unlike type II and type V systems, type VI systems do not seem to require tracrRNA to process pre-crRNA into crRNA in some cases. However, similar to type V systems, some type VI systems (e.g., C2C2) appear to have powerful single-stranded nonspecific nuclease (ribonuclease) activity activated by the first crRNA-directed cutting of target RNA.

[0246] Class 2 CRISPR-Cas has been most widely used in engineering and development as a designer nuclease / genome editing application due to its simpler architecture.

[0247] One of the early applications of such a system for in vitro use involved (i) recombinantly expressed, purified full-length Cas9 (e.g., class 2, type II Cas enzyme) isolated from Streptococcus pyogenes SF370; (ii) purified mature, approximately 42 nt crRNA with an approximately 20 nt 5' sequence complementary to the desired target DNA sequence to be cleaved, followed by a 3' tracr binding sequence (the entire crRNA was in vitro transcribed from a synthetic DNA template carrying a T7 promoter sequence); (iii) purified tracrRNA in vitro transcribed from a synthetic DNA template carrying a T7 promoter sequence; and (iv) Mg 2+ A later improved engineered system involves the crRNA of (ii) being linked to the 5' end of (iii) via a linker (e.g., GAAA) to form a single fused synthetic guide RNA (sgRNA) that can itself guide Cas9 to the target (compare Figure 2 ).

[0248] Such an engineered system can be adapted for mammalian cells by providing a DNA vector encoding: (i) an ORF encoding a codon-optimized Cas9 (e.g., a class 2 type II Cas enzyme) under a suitable mammalian promoter with a C-terminal nuclear localization sequence (e.g., SV40 NLS) and a suitable polyadenylation signal (e.g., TK pA signal); and (ii) an ORF encoding an sgRNA (having a 5' sequence starting with G followed by a 20 nt complementary targeting nucleic acid sequence linked to a 3' tracr binding sequence, a linker, and a tracrRNA sequence) under a suitable polymerase III promoter (e.g., U6 promoter).

[0249] Transposons are mobile elements that can move between positions in the genome. Such transposons have evolved to limit their negative impact on the host. A variety of regulatory mechanisms are used to maintain low-frequency transpositions, and sometimes also coordinate transpositions with various cellular processes. Some prokaryotic transposons can also mobilize functions that are beneficial to the host or otherwise help maintain the element. Some transposons may also evolve a strict control mechanism for target site selection, the most notable example being the Tn7 family.

[0250] Transposon Tn7 and similar elements may be reservoirs for antibiotic resistance and pathogenesis functions in clinical settings, as well as encoding other adaptive functions in natural environments. For example, the Tn7 system has evolved mechanisms to almost completely avoid integration into important host genes but also to maximize dispersion of the element by recognizing mobile plasmids and phages that can move Tn7 between host bacteria.

[0251] Tn7 and Tn7-like elements can control the location and timing of their insertion, with one pathway directing insertion into a single conserved location in the bacterial genome and a second pathway that appears to be adapted to maximize targeting of mobile plasmids capable of transporting the elements between bacteria (see Figure 3 The association between Tn7-like transposons and CRISPR-Cas systems suggests that transposons may hijack CRISPR effectors to generate R-loops in target loci and facilitate transposon spread via plasmids and phages.

[0252] Functional domain fusion

[0253] The lack of activity of certain enzyme effectors in human cells may be due to their inability to access the target site, for example, due to compact chromatin structure. Therefore, fusion of functional domains to effectors can improve enzyme activity. For example, fusion of Taq polymerase to sso7d (ds) DNA binding protein improves the processivity of the enzyme, requiring less enzyme and shorter extension time (Wang et al., 2004). Similarly, when fused with various functional domains, CjCas9 has improved cutting and editing efficiency in K562 cells (Ding et al., 2019).
