Description

Treatment method for inhibiting HBV surface antigen based on base editing ATG initiation codon
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of pathogenic biology treatment, and particularly relates to a treatment method for inhibiting HBV surface antigen based on base editing ATG initiation codon.
Background
About half of the global population is in a high-incidence Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) region, 20 million people are infected once, about 3.5 million people are chronic infected, about 100 million people die from HBV infection every year, and the seventh of ten global death diseases is listed. The phenomenon of HBV cryptic infection is very common, and the content of HBV cryptic infection in Asian population is as high as 7.5-16%. The HBV vaccine coverage rate in China is more than 90%, the successful blocking rate of mothers and babies is as high as 95%, and the number of infected people is obviously reduced. The 2016 world health organization first proposed a far reaching goal of eliminating viral hepatitis worldwide by 2030. China has high HBV infection rate and large base number. The standardization of treatment is the key to the improvement of diagnosis rate and treatment rate, and the development of more effective anti-HBV treatment methods is important and is an important prerequisite for realizing the goal of hepatitis B elimination in 2030, which is proposed by WHO.
HBV infection is an important cause of chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, and seriously threatens human health. In recent years, the research on the anti-HBV of nucleoside analogues is rapidly advanced, the clinical inhibition of HBV has definite curative effect, and the generation of drug-resistant mutation is the main problem of the current drugs. The increase of the selectable drugs helps the drug resistance problem to a certain extent, but the drugs only can inhibit HBV replication, have no effect on covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA), and cannot completely eliminate and cure HBV. At present, no medicine and method for effectively removing cccDNA exist. The exploration of a treatment strategy for completely eliminating HBV is significant.
The CRISPR/Cas9 can edit genomes of any species, is simple and efficient, and brings eosin for the treatment of viral infection, genetic disease, chromosome defects and the like which are difficult to cure radically. Many research groups have attempted to edit the HBV genome with CRISPR/Cas9 to achieve antiviral effects, but there is an uncontrollable occurrence of unknown mutations that cause viral DNA double strand breaks. A base editing enzyme CBE developed by fusing Cas9 and cytosine deaminase APOBEC1 can induce the transition from C-conductive E to T.A; the base editing enzyme ABE is developed by fusing dCas9 and TadA of Escherichia coli, and can induce A.T-G.C conversion. The ABE-8e and the BE4-max used by the method are updated versions of the ABE and the CBE respectively, and the editing efficiency is higher, the accuracy is higher and the miss rate is lower.
In view of this, the present invention is proposed.

On the positive strand of HBV genome, there are a total of 31 ATG-initiated ORFs. As shown in FIG. 1A, the S-ORF has 9 fusion-framed ATGs, sequentially named S1-S9, S1, S3 and S4 initiating translation of L, M and S proteins, respectively. Designing primers, constructing mutant viruses such as pBSK-HBV1.3-P-null, -S5, -S6, -S5/S6 and the like by utilizing a fusion PCR method, and sequencing, analyzing and identifying; ELISA and western-blot were used to detect HBs/c/e expression, and Realtime-PCR, Southern-blot and Northern-blot were used to detect HBV DNA, RNA and cccDNA. The result shows that the ATG initiation codon can close the transcription and translation of genes, the replication and antigen expression level of the virus are obviously reduced after the ATG mutation of HBV P and S genes, and the mutant ATG can be theoretically used as a target spot for treating HBV through base editing.

The invention edits the ATG initiation codon of S, PreS1 and PreS2 of HBV by ABE8e and BE4-max base at cellular level, so that the ATG initiation codon loses the transcription initiation function, and the target gene is closed, thereby realizing the inhibition and elimination of HBV surface antigen. With the optimization of the in vivo delivery system, gene therapy has important value and application prospect in the anti-HBV treatment field.
