Description

Preparation method of genetically modified mice capable of distinguishing Tbx1 two variable cutters
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of biology, and relates to a targeting vector capable of distinguishing Tbx1 two variable shear bodies and a preparation method of a genetically modified mouse.
Background
Early heart developmental defects are the leading cause of early embryonic death, accounting for 30% of cases of human embryo and early fetal death. Research on congenital heart disease pathogenesis models provides a guarantee for solving increasingly complex biological problems, and simultaneously avoids partial problems of ethical moral and technical limitations. Mice are well suited as animal models of congenital heart disease pathogenesis because the heart development process of mice is highly similar to that of human embryos, they have a four-chamber structure like humans, and have strong reproductive capacity, short reproductive cycle, stable genetic background, and mature operating system, and thus have become ideal models for genetic research of congenital heart disease.
Tbx1 is one of the members of the T-box family of transcription factors. Studies have reported that Tbx1 is a candidate gene for 22q11.2 microdeletion syndrome (22q11 deletion syndrome,22q11.2DS) using a mouse model of Tbx1 gene knockout. Specifically, heart outflow tract (OFT) was observed to exhibit mild defects in Tbx1 +/-mice, tbx 1-/-mice exhibited more severe heart, craniofacial, thymus and parathyroid defects, and the associated phenotype was consistent with the DiGeorge syndrome (DiGeorge syndrome, DGS)/palatofacial syndrome (velocardiofacial syndrome, VCFS) patient. In addition, mouse gene dose studies indicate that Tbx1 belongs to a dose-dependent gene, and the expression of Tbx1 in different tissues has differences in space and time, and the expression of Tbx1 needs to be precisely regulated in the embryo heart development process. Notably, the Tbx1 knockout mice reported are common region knockout to variable sham, and cannot accurately distinguish the role and mechanism of different variable sham in the developmental process. In other words, the Tbx1 gene knockout mice reported at present can prove the main functions of the gene and the regulation network thereof, but cannot distinguish the roles and mechanisms of different variable sheared bodies of Tbx1 in the heart development process. Therefore, there is a need for a mouse model that can accurately distinguish between studies of different cutter Tbx1, providing an effective tool for revealing the pathogenic mechanisms of different cutter.
Compared with Zinc Finger Nuclease (ZFNs) and transcription activation-like effector nuclease (transcription activator-like effector nuclease, TALEN) technologies, the CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology has the advantages of short period, high efficiency and strong specificity. Meanwhile, expression forms of different variable shears of Tbx1 are accurately distinguished by virtue of different tag proteins of V5 and 3xFlag, the deletion of corresponding shears is realized by point mutation, the conditional knockout of Tbx1201 and Tbx1203 can be realized by a Cre-loxp system, and the acquisition of related mice has important significance for revealing the action mechanisms of different variable shears of Tbx1 in the heart development process.
