Description

The predetermined site of cellular genome is carried out to the method for genetic modification
Technical field
The present invention relates to biological technical field, more specifically, the present invention relates to reconstitution cell, method for cell is carried out the reagent of genetic modification and the predetermined site of cellular genome carried out to genetic modification.
Background technology
CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats)/Cas9 be within nearly 2 years, extensively approved instruct Cas nuclease target gene to be carried out to the technology of specific DNA modification by RNA.In this technology, crRNA (CRISPR-derived RNA) forms double-stranded RNA by base pairing and tracrRNA (trans-activating RNA) combination, obtains tracrRNA/crRNA binary complex body.The tracrRNA/crRNA binary complex body obtaining can instruct Cas9 albumen to shear double-stranded DNA at the target locating point mating with crRNA homing sequence, thereby reaches the object that genomic dna is modified.CRISPR/Cas9 system can accurately be edited the genome specific gene site of multiple species, the model preparation that has been successfully applied to the gene knockouts such as large and small mouse, human archeocyte at present and has knocked in.
Cas9 system is carried out three kinds of elements of effective need of work, i.e. crRNA (CRISPR-derived RNA, target identification 20 or 30 bases), tracrRNA (trans-activating RNA) and Cas9 albumen.
Because crRNA and tracrRNA can serial operations, so three element system also can be simplified to two component system, i.e. chiRNA (being formed 20 bases of target identification by crRNA and tracrRNA series connection degeneracy), Cas9 albumen.So the main flow strategy that utilizes at present Cas9 system to carry out genome editor and gene expression regulation has two kinds: three element system, two element system.
But the method for utilizing at present Cas9 system to carry out genome editor and gene expression regulation still haves much room for improvement.
Summary of the invention
It should be noted that, the following discovery of the present invention based on contriver completes:
Present stage, utilize Cas9 system to carry out genome editor and gene expression regulation, mainly contain two kinds of strategies: the one, exogenous plasmid system strategy; The 2nd, in-vitro transcription is synthesized chiRNA strategy.
Wherein, the first strategy (being exogenous plasmid system strategy), that element relevant Cas9 system is assembled in heterogenous expression pUC pUC, be the element in three element system or two component system is all incorporated on a heterogenous expression carrier, for target spots different in genome, each only need carry out the restructuring of plasmid to corresponding crRNA or chiRNA part, other parts need not operate, and then plasmid are proceeded to and in corresponding experimental model, just can make its work.This strategy has following shortcoming:
1. the limitation that target spot is selected: conventional target recognition site length is 20 bases at present, because latter linked first base of U6 promotor is necessary for G (guanine), therefore first base that defines these 20 bases is necessary for G, this has just caused very strong restriction, causes the selection of target spot to lose great selection space;
2. single pUC pUC: the exogenous plasmid building is excessive, can produce and be difficult for transfection (especially original with regard to very low cell more so for transfection efficiency) or the too low problem of transfection copy number, and this is the main cause of the common inefficiency of Cas9 system;
3. multi plasmid system: as need make the onset of Cas9 system, will require whole element corotation to enter same cell, and corotation efficiency is the bottleneck of this technical tactic;
4. virus carrier system: Cas9 albumen is excessive, is more than 4,000 bp, is difficult for packaging, cause virus to be packaged into power too low, be difficult to efficient functionating;
5. for different loci: need to repeatedly build the vector expression part of crRNA or chiRNA, operation inconvenience;
6. disposable for multidigit point operation: need the common transfection of multiple plasmids, corotation efficiency is low, causes the inefficient operation for many target spots;
7.Cas9 expressing quantity is unstable: the Cas9 gene of heterogenous expression proceeds to the copy number difference of each cell, causes the expression amount of Cas9 albumen in cell unstable, homogeneous, has limited the working efficiency of Cas9 system;
8. for high, middle flux operation, the cycle is long, and time cost, human cost are too high.
The second strategy (being the synthetic chiRNA strategy of in-vitro transcription), is that existing Cas9 two element system is separated, and is divided into: in-vitro transcription chiRNA and cas9 albumen.To be mode by plasmid construction be inserted into target sequence on the such carrier of pT7-gRNA for example in-vitro transcription chiRNA, then under the external environment in laboratory, be prepared into chiRNA with the transcriptase such as T7 or SP6; The expression of Cas9 albumen has various ways in this scheme: the heterogenous expression of realizing by transfection, embryo's injection of Cas9mRNA (being also in-vitro transcription), be incorporated in genome by virus vector, Cas9 gene order fixed point is knocked in genome.This strategy has following shortcoming:
1. the limitation that in-vitro transcription chiRNA target spot is selected: conventional target recognition site length is 20 bases at present, because T7 or SP6 promotor latter linked first or the first two base are necessary for G (guanine), therefore first or the first two base that define these 20 bases are necessary for G, this has just caused very strong restriction, causes the selection of target spot to lose great selection space;
In-vitro transcription chiRNA operating environment require high, technical requirements is high, transcribes the RNA for preparing extremely unstable in environment in vitro, extremely handled is to avoid RNA enzyme ubiquitous in environment; Full-range operative technique requires also far above other molecular biology experiments;
3. in-vitro transcription chiRNA cost is high, and pilot process is multiplex to the relevant test kit of RNA, and RNA test kit is often expensive, causes whole process cost not low;
4. in-vitro transcription chiRNA preparation process is many, and the cycle is long, flow process complexity: need to order target spot Oligo, annealing link, transform, order-checking qualification, plasmid preparation, PCR, PCR product purification, transcribe, all multi-steps such as transcription product purifying, quality evalution;
5.Cas9 albumen is as needed cotransfection, and cotransfection efficiency is also problem.
6. for high, middle flux operation, the cycle is long, and time cost, human cost are too high.
The present invention is intended at least solve one of technical problem existing in prior art.For this reason, one object of the present invention be to propose a kind of easier with respect to prior art operation, more safety and stability, more efficient fast, flux is higher, be applicable to various flux, utilize the improved Cas9 system predetermined site of cellular genome to be carried out to the method for genetic modification.
