[0002] Bovine tuberculosis (BTB) is a chronic, debilitating zoonosis primarily caused by infection with Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis). According to statistics, approximately 50 million cattle worldwide are TB-positive annually, resulting in approximately $3 billion in agricultural losses. Furthermore, approximately 10%-15% of human pulmonary tuberculosis infections are caused by bovine tuberculosis, threatening animal-source food safety and public health. In recent years, my country's cattle industry has continued to expand. While ensuring the supply of animal products, dairy bovine tuberculosis has become a key issue affecting the sustainable development of the industry. Summary of the Invention

[0011] The present invention introduces a cis-acting element (pre-SAND-exon sequence) into the bovine SP110 gene, which can significantly reduce the abundance of bovine bSP110c transcripts and increase the abundance of bSP110a and bSP110b transcripts, thereby increasing the expression of inflammatory factors during the process of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection of macrophages, reducing the proliferation ability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in cells, and improving anti-tuberculosis ability.

[0012] Therefore, the application of bovine SP110 gene splicing editing provided by the present invention in improving the anti-tuberculosis ability of cattle has the following specific technical effects:

[0013] (1) The present invention regulates the splicing and editing of the bovine SP110 gene by introducing the 12th exon of the human or horse SP110 gene and the adjacent 5′-end 12th intron partial sequence (pre-SAND-exon sequence) into the bovine SP110 gene, thereby effectively improving the anti-tuberculosis ability of cattle;

[0073] Example 4

[0074] The anti-tuberculosis ability of the three transcripts obtained in Example 3 was investigated in the following steps:

[0075] S4.1. The eukaryotic expression vectors pCMV-HA-SP110a, pCMV-HA-SP110b, and pCMV-HA-SP110c constructed in Example 3 were used to transfect the RAW264.7 cell line. After 24 hours of expression, the cells were infected with H37Rv Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The steps were as follows:

[0076] 1) Cell transfection and infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis

[0077] Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains H37Rv and M. bovis were obtained from the research group led by Guo Aizhen at Huazhong Agricultural University. This bacterial challenge experiment was conducted entirely in the Animal Biosafety Level 3 Laboratory at Huazhong Agricultural University.

[0078] First, RAW264.7 cells were transfected with the constructed eukaryotic expression vectors pCMV-HA-bSP110a, pCMV-HA-bSP110b, and pCMV-HA-bSP110c in 12-well plates. Cells were cultured to 70% confluency before transfection. Lipofectamine 2000 was used as the transfection reagent. The transfection system for each flask of cells is shown in Table 11.

[0080] Transfection system Volume (μL / well) plasmids 1 μg Lipofectamine 2000 1.5 μL <![CDATA[Opti-MEM TM Medium]]> 100 μL

[0081] H37Rv was cultured in 7H11 medium at 37°C and 5% CO2. After the culture reached the logarithmic phase, infection was performed at an MOI of 10 (cell number: bacterial number = 1:10). Before infection, the cells were counted. In a 12-well plate, the number of RAW264.7 cells was approximately 4×10 5 pcs / hole. Then H37Rv needs 4×10 6 Take 100 μL of H37Rv bacterial solution and measure OD in UV spectrophotometer. 600 The absorbance value is 0.5, and the concentration of Mycobacterium tuberculosis obtained from previous experiments - OD 600 The concentration of the bacterial solution was calculated from the absorbance standard curve to be 8×10 7 If the calculated number of cells / mL is 0.05, 50 μL of H37Rv bacterial solution should be added to each well of RAW264.7 cells. Add the calculated amount of bacterial solution to the wells and incubate at 37°C for 4 hours. Wash three times with PBS to remove uninfected bacteria. Add DMEM containing 50 μg / mL gentamicin and continue culturing the cells for 24 and 36 hours before collecting samples.

[0082] 2) CFU assay after infection with RAW264.7 cells. The specific steps are as follows:

[0083] After the attack, the cells were washed 3-5 times with PBS, and 1 mL of 0.25% Triton X-100 in PBS was added to lyse the cells. Lyse for 10 min at room temperature and dilute the lysate to 10 -2 , 10 -3 , 10 -4After doubling, 100 μL of each sample was taken and plated on 7H11 solid culture medium, and then cultured in a 37°C incubator for 20 days before counting the number of single colonies.

[0084] The results are as follows Figure 3 As shown in the figure, at 24h and 36h after infection, the intracellular bacterial counts of cells transfected with bSP110a and bSP110b were significantly decreased compared with those of cells transfected with bSP110c, indicating that the anti-tuberculosis ability of bSP110c on macrophages was weaker than that of bSP110a and bSP110b.

[0085] S4.2: After 24 hours of expression in the RAW264.7 cell line transfected in step S4.1, the cells were infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv at an MOI of 10 for 36 hours and the cell supernatants were collected and the concentrations of IL6, IL10, IL1β, and TNFα were measured using ELISA kits as follows:

[0086] 1) Sample collection

[0087] The cell transfection and Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection steps were as above. 36 hours after Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, the cell supernatant was collected, filtered through 0.22 μm, and then tested separately. The supernatant was stored at -80°C during this period.

[0088] 2) Sample testing

[0089] The supernatant of RAW264.7 cells was detected using the Mouse IFN-β ELISA Kit. The detection steps are as follows:

[0090] ① Preparation of standard curve of cell culture supernatant samples

[0091] Take 230 μL of the concentrated standard and add 230 μL of cell culture medium to set the highest concentration for the standard curve (1,000 pg / mL). Add 230 μL of cell culture medium to each tube. Make 1:1 serial dilutions using the high-concentration standard. Ensure thorough mixing between each pipetting. Use cell culture medium as the zero concentration for the standard curve.

[0092] ② Sample addition: Add 100 μL of a 2-fold serial dilution of the standard to the standard wells. Add 100 μL of cell culture medium to the blank wells and 100 μL of the collected cell culture supernatant to the sample wells.

[0093] ③ Add detection antibody: Add 50 μL of detection antibody working solution to each well. Ensure continuous addition without interruption. Complete the addition process within 15 minutes. Seal the plate with sealing film, shake at 100-300 rpm for 2 minutes, and incubate at room temperature (25°C ± 3°C) for 2 hours. After incubation, discard the liquid and wash the plate six times by adding 300 μL of wash solution to each well.

[0094] ④ Enzyme incubation: Add 100 μL of streptavidin working solution to each well and seal the plate with a new sealing film. Oscillate at 100-300 rpm for 2 minutes, incubate at room temperature (25°C ± 3°C) for 45 minutes, and wash six times after incubation.

[0095] ⑤ Add substrate for color development: Add 100 μL of color development substrate to each well, protect from light, and incubate at room temperature (25℃±3℃) for 5-30 minutes.

[0096] ⑥ Add stop solution: Add 100 μL of stop solution to each well. The color will change from blue to yellow.

[0097] ⑦ Detection reading: Within 30 minutes, use a microplate reader to perform dual-wavelength detection and measure the OD value at the maximum absorption wavelength of 450nm.

[0165] Example 8

[0166] To investigate the effect of splicing editing of the bovine SP110 gene on bSP110c production, the steps are as follows:

[0167] S8.1. pCMV-Flag-ASVV and pCMV-Flag-Rhuman / horse-ASVV constructed in Examples 4 and 5 were transfected into NIH3T3 cells, BFF cells, THP-1 cells, and HEK293T cells, respectively. Lip2000 liposome transfection was used (the transfection method was the same as in Example 4 S4.1). The cells were collected 36 hours later, and the total RNA of the collected cells was extracted by the Trizol method. The total RNA was then reverse transcribed into cDNA using a reverse transcription kit according to the attached instructions (the method was the same as in Example 5 S5.4).

[0168] S8.2. Using the cDNA obtained in step S7.1 as a template and the sequences shown in Table 24 as primers, perform fluorescence quantitative PCR (same steps as in Example 5 S5.4) to detect the level of SP110c mRNA.

[0171] The location of SP110 quantitative primer is shown in Figure 8 .

[0172] The results are as follows Figure 9 As shown in the figures, the pCMV-Flag-Rhuman-ASVV and pCMV-Flag-Rhorse-ASVV recombinant reporter vectors constructed in Example 5 can effectively reduce the expression level of the transcript SP110c with weaker anti-tuberculosis ability, while increasing the expression levels of transcripts SP110a and SP110b with stronger anti-tuberculosis ability, and the trends are consistent in different cell lines.

[0173] Embodiment 9

[0174] The effects of the overexpression vectors constructed in Examples 4 and 5 on the anti-tuberculosis ability were investigated in the following steps:

[0175] First, the RAW264.7 cell line was transfected with pCMV-Flag-ASVV, pCMV-Flag-Rhuman-ASVV, and pCMV-Flag-Rhorse-ASVV using Lip2000 (each plasmid was transfected into two 60 cm culture dishes of cells). H37Ra tuberculosis was then infected at an MOI of 10. Cells were lysed 12 and 72 hours after infection, and the cell lysates were collected and plated onto 7H11 solid medium. Culture was continued for 3 weeks before CFU analysis. (The same procedures as in Example 4, S4.1)

[0176] The results are as follows Figure 10 As shown, at 12 hours of infection, the number of viable intracellular bacteria in cells transfected with pCMV-Flag-ASVV and pCMV-Flag-Rhuman / Rhorse-ASVV was not significantly different. At 72 hours of infection, the number of intracellular bacteria in cells transfected with pCMV-Flag-Rhuman-ASVV and pCMV-Flag-Rhorse-ASVV was significantly lower than that at 12 hours of infection. The number of intracellular bacteria in cells transfected with pCMV-Flag-ASVV was also significantly lower than that at 12 hours of infection, indicating that the overexpression reporter vectors can inhibit the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to a certain extent. At 72 hours of infection, the number of intracellular bacteria in cells transfected with pCMV-Flag-Rhuman-ASVV and pCMV-Flag-Rhorse-ASVV was significantly lower than that in cells transfected with pCMV-Flag-ASVV.

[0177] Splicing editing of the bovine SP110 gene can significantly reduce the level of SP110c transcripts and significantly increase the abundance of SP110a and SP110b transcripts, thereby enhancing the ability of macrophages to fight Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection.

[0178] Therefore, the present invention can effectively improve the anti-tuberculosis ability of cattle by introducing the 12th exon of the human or horse SP110 gene and the adjacent 5′-end 12th intron partial sequence (pre-SAND-exon sequence) into the bovine SP110 gene; the provided bovine SP110 gene splicing editing site can be used as a bovine tuberculosis resistance linkage site for breeding tuberculosis-resistant cattle, which can effectively simplify the breeding method, improve the breeding efficiency, and save the breeding cost.

[0179] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify or replace the technical solutions of the present invention with equivalents, and these modifications or equivalent replacements cannot cause the modified technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
