The invention provides crRNA, a
CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)-Cas
system and a kit for SMN1
gene mutation detection. The
nucleotide sequence of the crRNA is as shown in SEQ ID NO: 31. The crRNA is very suitable for detecting SMN1
gene mutation through an RPA-Cas12a one-
step method, the tolerance of the crRNA to single base mismatch in a target is low, and the SMN1
gene recognition specificity is obviously enhanced; moreover, 9-nt single-stranded
DNA modification is added to the 3'terminal of the RPA-Cas12a, so that the
cutting efficiency of Cas12a to a substrate in RPA-Cas12a one-
step detection can be effectively reduced, amplification and accumulation of target
DNA are promoted, the detection sensitivity is effectively improved (about 100 times), and the
detection performance is improved. Furthermore, a lateral flow
chromatography test strip is developed on the basis of the crRNA, non-SMA patients and SMA patients can be rapidly and visually distinguished, large expensive equipment and skilled operators are not needed for detection, and the lateral flow
chromatography test strip has the advantages of high sensitivity, high specificity, low cost and the like, is suitable for large-scale screening, is high in universality and can be widely applied to the field of clinical detection. And a new means is provided for early screening and prevention of SMA.
