Description

The method that genetic modification is carried out to the predetermined site of cellular genome
Technical field
The present invention relates to biological technical field, more specifically, the present invention relates to recombinant cell, for carrying out gene to cell The reagent of transformation and the method that genetic modification is carried out to the predetermined site of cellular genome.
Background technology
CRISPR(Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats)/ Cas9 is the technology for instructing Cas nucleases to carry out specific DNA modification to target gene by RNA being widely recognized as nearly 2 years. In the technology, crRNA (CRISPR-derived RNA) passes through base pairing and tracrRNA (trans-activating RNA double-stranded RNA) is combined to form, obtains tracrRNA/crRNA binary complex.Resulting tracrRNA/crRNA binary is answered Zoarium can instruct Cas9 albumen to target site shearing double-stranded DNA what is matched with crRNA homing sequences, so as to reach to gene The purpose that group DNA is modified.CRISPR/Cas9 systems can carry out accurate to the genome specific gene site of a variety of species Editor, has been successfully applied to the gene knockouts such as large and small mouse, human archeocyte at present and prepared by the model knocked in.
Cas9 systems carry out effective three kinds of elements of need of work, i.e. crRNA (CRISPR-derived RNA, target identification 20 or 30 bases), tracrRNA (trans-activating RNA) and Cas9 albumen.
Due to crRNA and tracrRNA can with serial operation, so three element systems can also be simplified to two component system, That is chiRNA (being formed by crRNA and tracrRNA series connection degeneracys, target identifies 20 bases), Cas9 albumen.So profit at present The main flow strategy that genome editor and gene expression regulation are carried out with Cas9 systems shares two kinds:Three element systems, two element system System.
However, the method for carrying out genome editor and gene expression regulation currently with Cas9 systems still has much room for improvement.
The content of the invention
It should be noted that the present invention is the following discovery based on inventor and completed:
At this stage, genome editor and gene expression regulation are carried out using Cas9 systems, mainly there are two kinds of strategies:It is first, outer Source pUC pUC strategy;Second, in-vitro transcription synthesis chiRNA strategies.
Wherein, the first tactful (i.e. exogenous plasmid system strategy), it is that the related element group of Cas9 systems is mounted in external source In expression plasmid system, the element in three element systems or two component system is all as incorporated into a heterogenous expression carrier On, for target spot different in genome, the restructuring that need to only carry out plasmid to corresponding crRNA or chiRNA parts every time is Can, other parts do not have to operation, and then plasmid, which is transferred in corresponding experimental model, can just make its work.The strategy have with Lower shortcoming:
1. the limitation of target spot selection:Currently used targets identification site length is 20 bases, after U6 promoters First base of connection is necessary for G (guanine), and first base for thus defining 20 bases is necessary for G, and this is just Very strong limitation is caused, causes the selection of target spot to lose greatly selection space;
2. single pUC pUC:The exogenous plasmid built is excessive, can produce be not easy to transfect it is (original particularly with transfection efficiency Just very low cell is more so) or transfection copy number it is too low the problem of, and this is the low main cause of the common efficiency of Cas9 systems;
3. multi plasmid system:As that Cas9 systems need to be made to work it is necessary to require that whole element corotation 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 individual bp, not easy to package, causes the packaging success rate of virus It is too low, it is difficult to efficiently to function;
5. it is directed to different loci:Need repeatedly structure crRNA or chiRNA vector expression part, operation inconvenience;
6. disposably operated for more sites:Multiple plasmids are needed to transfect jointly, corotation efficiency is low, causes to be directed to Mutiple Targets Inefficient operation;
7.Cas9 expressing quantities are unstable:The copy number that the Cas9 genes of heterogenous expression are transferred to each cell is different, makes The expression quantity of Cas9 albumen is unstable, homogeneous into cell, limits the operating efficiency of Cas9 systems;
8. being directed to high, middle throughput, cycle length, time cost, human cost are too high.
Second of strategy (i.e. in-vitro transcription synthesis chiRNA strategies), is to separate existing Cas9 two elements system, i.e., It is divided into:In-vitro transcription chiRNA and cas9 albumen.In-vitro transcription chiRNA is to be inserted target sequence by way of plasmid construction Enter to as example pT7-gRNA on carrier, then be prepared into transcriptases such as T7 or SP6 under the vitro of laboratory chiRNA;The expression of Cas9 albumen has diversified forms in this scheme:By transfecting the heterogenous expression realized, Cas9mRNA Embryo's injection of (being also in-vitro transcription), by viral vector integration into genome, Cas9 gene orders fixed point is knocked in In genome.The strategy has the disadvantages that:
1. the limitation of in-vitro transcription chiRNA target spots selection:Currently used targets identification site length is 20 bases, Because T7 or SP6 promoters latter linked first or the first two base are necessary for G (guanine), 20 bases are thus defined First or the first two base be necessary for G, this has resulted in very strong limitation, causes the selection of target spot to lose great selection Space;
2. in-vitro transcription chiRNA operating environments require high, technical requirements height, the RNA prepared is transcribed in an in vitro environment It is extremely unstable, extremely handled to avoid RNase ubiquitous in environment;Full-range operating technology requires also remote Higher than other molecular biology experiments;
3. in-vitro transcription chiRNA costs are high, pilot process uses the related kits of RNA more, and RNA kits are often It is expensive, cause whole process cost not low;
4. in-vitro transcription chiRNA preparation processes are more, cycle length, flow is complicated:Need to order the Oligo of target spot, chain of annealing Connect, convert, sequencing identification, plasmid preparation, PCR, PCR primer purifying, transcription, transcription product purifying, all multisteps such as Quality Identification Suddenly;
5.Cas9 albumen such as needs cotransfection, and cotransfection efficiency is also problem.
6. being directed to high, middle throughput, cycle length, time cost, human cost are too high.
It is contemplated that at least solves one of technical problem present in prior art.Therefore, one object of the present invention Be to propose it is a kind of relative to prior art operation it is easier, more safety and stability, more efficiently quick, flux is higher, be applicable In various flux, the method for carrying out genetic modification to the predetermined site of cellular genome using improved Cas9 systems.
