Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of genetic engineering and plant breeding, and in particular to a modified RNA demethylase and nucleic acid encoding the modified RNA demethylase, and applications, plant breeding methods and products. Background Art

[0002] Artificial intervention breeding methods for plants usually include a variety of methods, such as genetic engineering, cell engineering, microbial engineering, etc. In order to obtain new plant varieties, the above methods are usually adopted; the new variety plants here include the whole plant, plant organs (flowers, fruits, seeds, roots, stems, leaves, etc.), plant tissues, plant cells and other parts that can be obtained from plants.

[0003] The obtained new varieties of plants are usually expected to show more optimized traits, such as optimized growth, increased yield, optimized biomass, optimized structure or optimized cell division, etc. Among the above optimized traits, increased yield can be increased in many ways, such as increased volume or weight of single seeds / thousand seeds, increased number of root tillers, etc., which can affect plant yield, especially increased yield of the part that is expected to be obtained from the plant.

[0004] The above expectation is usually achieved through some transformation means, such as by transforming the DNA or histone of the plant to achieve the purpose of changing the plant traits. Prior to the present application, there has been a method for optimizing the traits of plants by demethylating the 6mA site of plant RNA. Summary of the invention

[0005] The aforementioned approach can indeed obtain plants with optimized traits, especially plants with increased yield. For details, please refer to the document CN108949806A previously applied for by the applicant and authorized by multiple countries; however, from the results of trait optimization, the trait optimization effect of the original RNA demethylase or its encoding DNA from algae or invertebrate sources on plants is significantly lower than that of the original RNA demethylase or its encoding DNA from humans or vertebrates; and from the perspective of audience acceptance, the introduction of the original RNA demethylase from algae or invertebrate sources has a significant negative impact on the plant's trait optimization effect. The NA demethylase or its encoding DNA is significantly higher than the original RNA demethylase or its encoding DNA introduced from humans or other vertebrates; for this reason, the applicant has found through research that by modifying the original RNA demethylase or its encoding DNA from algae or invertebrates using genetic engineering, the modified RNA demethylase or its encoding DNA after specific modification can achieve better trait optimization effects on plants, reaching or even exceeding the trait optimization effects of the original RNA demethylase or its encoding DNA from humans or other vertebrates on plants.

[0006] In view of this, the modified RNA demethylase and the encoding nucleic acid thereof provided by the present invention can optimize the traits of the plant after being introduced into the plant, and are more suitable for popularization.

[0007] Studies have found that during the growth and development of plants, there are specific enzymes that can promote the methylation of their RNA bases. For example, the methyltransferase MTA can promote the 6-methylation of the adenine base of RNA. Here, 6- refers to the N that is connected to the RNA sequence as the starting point, and the N that is ranked 6th in order or in reverse order. The methylated RNA itself or its products can promote the growth and development of plants through a series of processes such as subsequent expression. Experiments have confirmed that the removal of this specific methylation enzyme will affect the growth and development of plants (for example, it will not produce viable seeds or the seeds will not germinate normally). However, studies have found that after the methylation of the base position, the RNA itself or its products are more conducive to the growth and development of plants after removing some of the methyl groups, and promote the optimization of plant traits. The method of removing some methyl groups can be achieved by using a certain induction medium, such as a demethylase.

[0008] The present application has found that after the modified RNA demethylase of the present application is introduced into plants, the properties of the plants themselves are optimized, especially the yield or biomass of the plants is increased.

[0009] This type of RNA demethylase is usually based on RNA that has been methylated at its base position. Its induction chemical mechanism is as follows Figure 1 As shown, the demethylation process of N6-methylated adenine is taken as an example. Through research, it is found that although the specific RNA sequence and specific site location induced by this type of induction medium for demethylation are not clear at present, it is clear that this type of induction medium can indeed demethylate RNA after the base position has been methylated, thereby obtaining plants with optimized traits.

[0010] The scheme of the present application is to modify the original RNA demethylase from algae or invertebrate sources, and to obtain a modified RNA demethylase by adding at least one specific peptide sequence provided in the present application to at least one of its N-terminus or C-terminus. After the modified RNA demethylase or its encoding nucleic acid is introduced into a plant, the properties of the resulting plant can be more optimized, especially in terms of increased yield or increased biomass.

[0084] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0085] Sequence modification of native RNA demethylases from algae or invertebrates

[0086] The original RNA demethylase obtained from various algae or invertebrates is sequenced, screened, and amplified to obtain the corresponding sequence samples. The sequences of the original RNA demethylases from specific algae sources are shown in the sequence table SEQ.ID.NO:1-12. Each sequence shown is directly subjected to PCR and recombined into the p1307-FLAG vector to obtain p1307-RNA demethylase-FLAG. Thereafter, the RNA demethylase-FLAG fragment is amplified and recombined into the pGEX-His vector to obtain pGEX-RNA demethylase-FLAG-His, which can be used for subsequent in vitro experiments and peptide sequence introduction. The plasmid pGEX-RNA demethylase-FLAG-His is recombined after the ring P using primers with peptide sequences, and finally the modified gene fragment is introduced into the p1307-FLAG vector again. In this way, the modified RNA demethylase of the present application is obtained, and the specific sequence can be shown in the sequence table SEQ.ID.NO:13-48. Specifically, the modified RNA demethylase obtained can introduce a peptide sequence at at least one of the N-terminus or C-terminus of the original protein. For example, to introduce a peptide sequence at the N-terminus, the NLS sequence can be inserted between the N-terminus of the original protein, that is, the first amino acid M and the second amino acid. For example, to introduce a peptide sequence at the C-terminus, the NLS sequence can be added after the C-terminus of the original protein, that is, the last amino acid.

[0087] Example 1: Method for obtaining target plants by infecting callus with Agrobacterium

[0088] 1. Inducing callus using plant seeds as test materials

[0089] 1) Disinfection:

[0090] Take mature seeds of the plant, shell them manually, select plump, smooth and sterile seeds, put the seeds in a 100 ml sterile beaker, pour in 70% alcohol for disinfection for 2 minutes; pour out the alcohol, add 20% sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) solution, and soak for 30 minutes; pour out the sodium hypochlorite solution, wash the seeds with sterile distilled water for 4 to 5 times, and finally soak the seeds in sterile distilled water for 30 minutes.

[0091] 2) Induction culture (sterile operation required):

[0092] After the sterilized seeds are placed on sterile filter paper to absorb the surface moisture, they are placed in NB medium (PH5.8) containing 2.0 mg / L 2,4-D, with 12 to 14 seeds per dish; to ensure the induction rate, it is best to keep the germination direction of the seeds parallel to the culture medium or slightly downward during inoculation, and do not let the germination direction be upward or vertically downward. After the operation is completed, seal the culture dish with a sealing film, and induce and culture in the dark in a light incubator at 30°C and a humidity of about 50% for 20 to 30 days until obviously loose callus tissue appears, and then subculture or pre-culture transformation is performed.

[0093] 3) Subculture (sterile operation required):

[0094] Open the culture dish on the clean bench, pick up naturally split, vigorous growth, hard texture, tender yellow color, and callus with a particle diameter of about 3mm with tweezers, and place it in NB medium (PH5.8) containing 2.0mg / L 2,4-D and 0.5mg / L 6-BA, and place 10 callus in each dish, and culture in the dark at 30℃; if the callus is found to be seriously softened, it is recommended to subculture under light. The subculture time is about 10 to 15 days (the next subculture time is determined according to the growth of the callus), and the total subculture is two times. Note: If there is a lot of water on the lid during the flat dish culture process, it is not suitable, which may cause the culture to fail. The reason is that the bottom of the culture dish is heated, and the cover temperature is lower than the culture medium temperature, causing water vapor to condense on the cover of the culture dish.

[0095] 2. Agrobacterium culture

[0096] Experimental group: The vector carrying the modified DNA or modified protein of the present application and the hygromycin resistance gene Hygromycin is transferred into the parasitic bacteria, for example, the pCAMBIA 1307 vector carrying the modified DNA or modified protein of the present application and the hygromycin resistance gene Hygromycin is transferred into Agrobacterium LBA4404 and inoculated onto a YEP solid culture medium containing 20 mg / L rifampicin (Rif) and 50 mg / L kanamycin (Kan).

[0097] Control group: The original DNA or original protein and the vector of hygromycin resistance gene Hygromycin are transferred into the parasitic bacteria, for example, the pCAMBIA 1307 vector of hygromycin resistance gene Hygromycin is transferred into Agrobacterium LBA4404, and inoculated onto YEP solid culture medium containing 20 mg / L rifampicin (Rif) and 50 mg / L kanamycin (Kan).

[0098] Blank group: The vector of hygromycin resistance gene Hygromycin was transferred into parasitic bacteria, for example, the pCAMBIA 1307 vector of hygromycin resistance gene Hygromycin was transferred into Agrobacterium LBA4404, and inoculated onto YEP solid medium containing 20 mg / L rifampicin (Rif) and 50 mg / L kanamycin (Kan).

[0099] After the control group, experimental group and blank group were cultured at 28°C for 2 days, single clones of Agrobacterium were picked for colony PCR to verify whether the induction medium had been transferred into Agrobacterium, and positive single clones were selected and cultured in 4 ml YEP (containing 50 mg / L Kan and 20 mg / L Rif) culture medium at 28°C and 220 rpm for 20 to 36 h until the OD600 of the bacterial solution was 0.8 to 1.0.

[0100] 3. Infection and co-cultivation

[0101] 1) The cultured Agrobacterium culture was centrifuged at 4°C, 4000 rpm for 10 min, and the supernatant was removed. A suspension was prepared using AAM culture medium containing 100 umol / L acetosyringone, so that the final concentration of the culture solution OD600 was about 0.2.

[0102] 2) Pick out rice callus that has grown to a certain size and infect it with Agrobacterium suspension for 20 to 30 minutes.

[0103] 3) Remove the callus tissue and place it on sterile filter paper to drain for 20 to 30 minutes to prevent excessive growth of Agrobacterium during co-cultivation and excessive damage to the callus tissue.

[0104] 4) The callus was placed in NB medium (pH 5.2) containing 2.0 mg / L 2,4-D and 100 umol / L acetosyringone and cultured in the dark at 25°C for 48 to 72 h.

[0105] Note: The co-culture should be followed up and observed. If Agrobacterium is obviously seen, it means that the infection is over-infected and it is easy to grow bacteria in subsequent screening.

[0106] 4. Screening of resistant callus

[0107] Take out the callus and wash it with sterile water for 5-6 times, shaking it continuously. Then place the callus on sterile filter paper to air dry, and evenly place it on NB medium (PH 5.8) containing 50mg / L hygromycin for the first round of selection. Culture it in the dark at 28℃. If mold or Agrobacterium growth is found, transfer the callus with bacteria to a new screening plate in time.

[0108] After new callus tissue grows out after about 30 days of screening, transfer it to new NB medium (PH5.8) containing 50 mg / L hygromycin and screen it for another 7 to 10 days. If it grows obviously, it is a positive callus tissue. If it does not grow, it may be a false positive even if it does not turn brown and die.

[0109] 5. Induction of differentiation and rooting of positive callus

[0110] Place the yellow callus particles (to ensure that the callus used for differentiation is flawless) that have strong growth in the second screening on NB medium (PH5.8) containing 2.0mg / L 6-BA, 0.5mg / L kinetin, and 50mg / L hygromycin. Place 2 to 3 positive clones in each bottle. Place a small amount of callus for each clone. The callus placed should be of high quality, not quantity. Cultivate in the dark at 27℃ for 10 days, then illuminate and differentiate for 10 to 20 days. After growing green leaves, rooting can be carried out. The light intensity is 4000lux, 14h / d.

[0111] Place the robust seedlings differentiated from each clone in 1 / 2N6 medium (PH5.8) containing 0.5mg / L naphthaleneacetic acid and 50mg / L hygromycin to induce rooting, with 2-3 seedlings placed in each bottle. Culture under light at 27-30℃, light intensity 4000lux, 14h / d, open the sealing film after 7-10 days and add appropriate amount of sterile water. Transplant after 2-3 days.

[0112] Note: Callus cannot be subcultured during the differentiation process. The time from differentiation to transplanting of target plants is about three months.

[0113] 6. Training and transplanting of target plants

[0114] Pick out the seedlings of the target plant with relatively well-differentiated roots, stems and leaves (when the seedlings grow to the top of the test tube, open the lid in time), open the sealing film, add an appropriate amount of distilled water or sterile water (to prevent bacteria from growing in the culture medium), harden the seedlings for about 3 days to a week, then wash off the agar, transplant them into soil pots in the greenhouse for growth, test, and obtain the target plants.

[0115] 7. Detection and verification of target plants

[0116] 1) PCR detection: design induction mediator primers, such as RNA demethylase-F: ATGAAGCGCACCCCGACTG; RNA demethylase-R: GGGTTTTGCTTCCAGAAGCTGA; PCR reaction program: 95°C 5min, 95°C 15s, 58°C 15s, 72°C 30s, 35 cycles, 72°C extension 10min, 4°C storage. After the reaction, the PCR product was analyzed by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis.

[0117] 2) Method for rapid detection of target plants with hygromycin: Cut and collect fresh green leaves of about 1 cm long from the seedlings to be tested (with incisions at both ends), place them flat on the test culture medium (0.7% agar, 1 ml / L 6-BA, 50 mg / L hygromycin), and culture them at 28°C, 16h light / 8h dark for 48h. Plants with leaves that remain bright green are positive plants, while leaves of negative seedlings show blocky necrosis.

[0118] 8. Evaluation of the effect of induction media in target plants

[0119] Data was collected from the experimental group target plants and the control group target plants at maturity. The measured data mainly focused on the yield increase of each plant, in %. The above data involved weights of dry weight, specifically the data obtained after drying in an oven at 105℃ for 20 minutes and drying in an oven at 80℃ for 20 hours.

[0120] Example 2: Method for obtaining target plants by infecting stem tip tissue with Agrobacterium

[0121] 1. Inducing callus using mature plant embryos as test materials

[0122] Take mature seeds and soak them in clean water, change the water every 1 to 2 hours, and wait for 2 days until the seeds burst and turn white, then germinate and root them at 37℃. When the embryo grows to 1.5 to 2.0 cm, use a scalpel to cut off the embryo and coleoptile from the stem ring at the stem tip to expose the stem tip meristem.

[0123] 2. Agrobacterium culture (same as step 2 in Example 2)

[0124] 3. Infection and co-cultivation

[0125] Place the treated plants in AAM resuspension (see Appendix of Example 1), add 200 l / L of surfactant Silwet L-77, vacuum treat for 8 min at 1.5 KPa, pour out the resuspension, place on clean and moist perlite, and culture in the dark at 28°C for 3 days.

[0126] 4. Screening, transplanting and management of target plants

[0127] The plants after dark culture were moved to the plant nursery, and leaves of the transformed plants were collected at the three- to four-leaf stage for transformation seedling PCR detection and identification: gene primers were designed, such as RNA demethylase-F: ATGAAGCGCACCCCGACTG; RNA demethylase-R: GGGTTTTGCTTCCAGAAGCTGA; PCR reaction program was: 95℃5min, 95℃15s, 58℃15s, 72℃30s, 35 cycles, 72℃ extension 10min, and 4℃ storage. After the reaction, the PCR product was analyzed by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis. After 7 days, the surviving plants were transplanted to the greenhouse of the transgenic plant demonstration base and routine fertilizer and water management was carried out. The seeds of the transformed seedlings were harvested.

[0128] 5. Evaluation of target plant traits (same as step 8 in Example 2)

[0129] Example 3: Method for obtaining target plants by infecting with Agrobacterium and inducing meristem production

[0130] 1. Plant cultivation

[0131] The mature seeds were planted in nutrient soil and grown in a 24°C greenhouse environment with 16 h light / 8 h dark until maturity (approximately 63 to 66 days).

[0132] 2. Agrobacterium culture

[0133] DRs (growth regulatory elements) are a type of growth regulatory elements that induce plants to form meristems, and commonly used ones include BBM, ipt, ΔMP, STM, Wus2, etc. The vector carrying the induction medium, hygromycin resistance gene Hygromycin and DRs was transferred into Agrobacterium GV3101, and cultured overnight at 28°C for 12 hours in a growth medium (10mM MES, pH5.6, 20μM acetosyringone, 50mg / L kanamycin, 50mg / L gentamicin), centrifuged at 5000rpm for 10 minutes, and the cells were collected and resuspended in an infiltration medium (10mM MES, 150μM acetosyringone, 10mM MgCl2) to an OD600 value of 0.2-0.3. The Agrobacterium infection solution was placed at room temperature (about 25°C) for 2-4 hours before inoculation.

[0134] 3. Infection and screening of target plants

[0135] Remove visible shoot meristems from all plants, leaving 2-3 nodes and supporting leaves. Immediately inoculate the wound site with an Agrobacterium infection solution using a syringe and a 31G needle. Observe the bud formation of the plant at the cut site 38-48 days after inoculation. Each injection site with newly formed tissue or meristem is counted as a single event. The appearance of bud tissue is identified by genomic PCR (see Example 2, step 7) as an indicator of transgenic presence and expression.

[0136] 4. Transplantation and management of target plants

[0137] The newly generated bud tissue was cut off and transferred to the rooting medium to form complete seedlings. The surviving plants were transplanted to the greenhouse and fertilized and watered as usual. The transformed seedlings were harvested.

[0138] 5. Evaluation of target plant traits (same as step 8 in Example 2)

[0139] Example 4: Method for obtaining target plants by mechanical inoculation of PVX vectors

[0140] 1. Plant cultivation

[0141] The mature seeds were planted in nutrient soil and grown in a 24°C greenhouse environment with 16 h light / 8 h dark until maturity (approximately 63 to 66 days).

[0142] 2. Agrobacterium culture

[0143] The vector pPZPVX carrying the induction medium was transferred into Agrobacterium C58C1, and the cells were collected after being cultured in Luria broth medium and suspended in infection buffer (10 mM MES [pH 5.8], 10 mM MgCl2, 100 μg / mL acetosyringone) to an OD600 value of 0.2 to 0.3. The Agrobacterium infection solution was placed at room temperature (about 25°C) and incubated for 2 to 4 hours before inoculation.

[0144] 3. Infection and screening of target plants

[0145] Use a syringe to infiltrate tobacco leaves with Agrobacterium carrying the induction medium expression plasmid. After 7 days, homogenize the inoculated leaves with 10mM NaPi buffer (pH7.0) (Western blot verifies the expression of the induction medium). After homogenization, centrifuge at 16,000g for 3 minutes and filter the supernatant with a 0.45μm filter. Apply the filtered supernatant and corundum (600 mesh) to the fourth or fifth true leaf and rub it gently by hand to mechanically inoculate PVX. After inoculation, the plants are placed in a 16-hour light / 8-hour dark photoperiod at 16°C for growth, and the formation of new shoots at the inoculation site is observed after 7 to 8 days.

[0146] Note: Western blot detection of induction mediator expression: Take the inoculated leaf tissue powder and mix it with 1×1 oading buffer, heat it at 95℃ for 10 minutes, centrifuge it at 15000rpm for 10 minutes at room temperature, take the supernatant, load it on 10% SDS-PAGE, transfer it to the membrane after electrophoresis, and after blocking, use the induction mediator antibody to detect the induction mediator expression.

[0147] 4. Transplantation and management of target plants

[0148] The newly generated bud tissue was cut off and transferred to the rooting medium to form complete seedlings. The surviving plants were transplanted to the greenhouse and fertilized and watered as usual. The transformed seedlings were harvested.

[0149] 5. Evaluation of target plant traits (same as step 8 in Example 2)

[0150] Example 5: Method for obtaining target plants by haploid induction-editing (HI-Edit) technology

[0151] Haploid induction (HI) technology can induce haploids by appropriate modification of CENTROMERIC HISTONE3 (CENH3) or knockout of MATRILINEAL (MATL) and then double chromosomes, obtain homozygous candidate materials in a short time, and fix the genotype of crops, which is of great significance in crop breeding practice. Haploid induction-editing (HI-Edit) technology combines haploid induction breeding with gene editing technology, and can directly improve a wide range of plants in a short time, including commercial varieties, and get rid of the species and genotype restrictions of the existing gene editing system; since the chromosomes of the donor carrying the gene editing element will be eliminated during the hybridization process after being introduced through the haploid induction line, the hybrid obtained will not contain the genetic information of the father, and there is no need for multiple backcrossing. Only chromosome doubling of the target haploid plant can obtain an improved diploid strain, shortening the breeding cycle; the target crop can be improved through distant hybridization, with a wide range of applications, and transgene-free strains can be obtained.

[0152] 1. Construct an induction medium vector and introduce it into the non-haploid induction inbred line NP2222 to obtain stable transformed plants

[0153] Use 9-day-old immature embryos isolated from inbred line NP2222, and mix the isolated immature embryos with the Agrobacterium strain LBA4404 carrying the carrier of the induction medium. The infected embryos are cultivated on the recovery medium and the callus induction medium. Select callus on the medium containing mannose, and regenerate the resistant callus into the target plant to obtain a stable transformed plant.

[0154] 2. Evaluation of target plant traits (same as step 8 in Example 2)

[0155] The above-mentioned Examples 1 to 5 can all be methods of introducing modified DNA or modified protein into initial plants to obtain target plants, and the degree of trait optimization is measured.
