腺嘌呤脱氨酶及其应用
本申请要求申请日为2021/12/29的中国专利申请2021116444500和申请日为2021/12/29的中国专利申请2021116412251的优先权。本申请引用上述中国专利申请的全文。
技术领域
本发明属于基因编辑领域,具体涉及一种腺嘌呤脱氨酶及其应用。
背景技术
人类遗传病发生的本质是由于基因突变,60%左右的遗传疾病由单个碱基突变引起,传统的利用基因组编辑技术介导的同源重组进行纠正这类遗传病非常低效(0.1%-5%) [1,2]。基于CRISPR系统衍生出来的单碱基编辑器是近年来新兴的高效碱基编辑技术,因不产生DNA双链断裂、无须重组模板、高效编辑等优势使其在基础研究和临床疾病治疗展示了巨大的应用前景。
经典的碱基编辑器主要分为胞嘧啶碱基编辑器CBE和腺嘌呤碱基编辑器ABE,前者由活性受损的来源于酿脓链球菌(Streptococcus pyogenes)spCas9n、大鼠来源的胞嘧啶脱氨酶rAPOBEC1和尿嘧啶糖苷酶抑制剂组成,其中Cas9蛋白以NGG作为PAM识别并特异结合DNA,紧接着在脱氨酶以及DNA修复的作用下,最终在NGG(21-23位)上游靶向序列20bp范围实现C·G-T·A的替换,编辑窗口主要位于4-8位 [2]。后者则是将细菌来源的TadA与spCas9融合,在定向进化和蛋白质工程化改造技术的辅助下,经历7轮进化最终获得可作用于单链DNA的腺嘌呤碱基编辑器ABE7.10,活性编辑区域主要位于4-7位,该系统在人类细胞中引起A·T-G·C的平均编辑效率约为53%,远高于利用同源重组介导碱基突变的效率,其产物纯度高达99.9%以及极低的indels(插入和缺失)发生 [3]。在CBE开发过程中,科学家发现尿嘧啶糖苷酶UNG影响C到G产物发生 [4],因此,科学家在CBE的基础上再融合尿嘧啶糖苷酶UNG [5,6]/UNG变体/碱基切除修复蛋白XRCC1等修复因子 [7],开发出CGBE系列,在DNA特定区域引起C-G到G-C的碱基颠换。然而,现有的CGBE系列由于多个融合蛋白的掺入,形成较大体积且复杂的构建体系为后期基因治疗带来阻碍,并且融合修复因子的CGBE其碱基编辑范围可覆盖3-9位,也无法兼容精准靶向和高效编辑 [7,8]。与此同时,多个课题组报道ABE除高效介导A到G的编辑外,也会引起低频的胞嘧啶编辑 [5,9-11]。然而致病的点突变事件中,往往需要精确地修正1个碱基,额外的碱基编辑(bystander突变,无法区别目标C和邻近C)反而会带来副作用,缺乏真正意义的精准,虽然YE1、YEE等胞嘧啶碱基编辑器一定程度缩窄靶向范围,但损失了靶向编辑效率,且多靶点不适用;eA3A-BE3、A3G-BE5.13等CBE依靠序列偏好性提高目标C的靶向性,但仍无法去除其他序列背景中C的编辑。
发明内容

发明人基于上述难点,本发明以腺嘌呤脱氨酶TadA-8e(仅167个氨基酸)作为切入点,通过对TadA-8e晶体结构分析和理性设计,鉴定出诱导ABE转换为CGBE的“分子开关”(图1),即完全废除ABE本身的腺嘌呤编辑能力,极大增加对底物胞嘧啶的编辑特性,经多轮筛选改造开发出ABE驱动的ADS-BE1(目前体积最小的CGBE),可在5-7位引起精准的C-G到G-C碱基颠换编辑,相对于传统胞嘧啶脱氨酶衍生而来的CGBE系列,ADS-BE1展示出较高的编辑活性和较低的脱靶事件,因此具备极高的安全性。
进一步地,发明人意外发现在腺嘌呤脱氨酶上的特定位点进行突变可以尝试在改造ABE转换为CGBE(C·G碱基编辑器)的载体(ADS-BE1)基础上融合2×UGI(尿嘧啶糖苷酶抑制剂),基于结构导向设计引入不同类型的突变,进而开发不依赖于胞嘧啶脱氨酶的高活性碱基编辑器(base editor),获得高效介导C到T突变的ADS-BE2系列,发现相对传统BE4max,ADS-BE2系列中ADS-BE2.5脱靶和indels降低、体积更小,并保持高效的C到T突变的能力;在高效进行靶向编辑的ADS-BE2.1和ADS-BE2.6上,通过结构导向设计和Linker改造双策略开发的胞嘧啶编辑编辑器eADS-BE2.1和eADS-BE2.6精度更高,可在C5/C6位引起精准的C-G到T-A碱基编辑,展示出较高的编辑活性和较低的脱靶事件,具备极高的安全性。

根据二代测序结果发现,相对于ABE8e,ABE8e-N46A、ABE8e-N46G、ABE8e-N46L、ABE8e-N46P和ABE8e-N46R均完全废除A到G的编辑(图2和表4),其中ABE8e-N46L和ABE8e-N46P同时展现出高效的胞嘧啶C6编辑(C到G+C+A),并且产物更多以C到G为主,产生C到G编辑分别为43.93%和43.87%;而3’端的C7和C8几乎不产生编辑(表4),展现出较高的精准性,故选择ABE8e-N46L命名为ADS-BE1(ABE Derived Single Base Editor),作为一种不依赖于胞嘧啶脱氨酶、尿嘧啶糖苷酶、DNA修复因子等多种融合物的新型迷你CGBE。

Figure PCTCN2022143408-appb-000031
结果表明(图3和表5),以CGBE1、APO-nCas9-XRCC1(两个传统CGBE)和ABE8e为对照,对于FANCF-sg15、PPP1R12C site7、Hp53-sg1和Ox40-sg1靶点,ADS-BE1展现精准编辑特性,更偏好编辑C5/C6,根据12个靶点不同位置的平均C到G效率统计(图4和表6),对于C5位置,ADS-BE1、CGBE1和APO-nCas9-XRCC1三种CGBE平均效率分别为27.87%、17.96%和7.72%;对于C6位置,三者平均效率分别为32.23%、41.36%和26.26%,而对于旁观者C7、C8、C4,CGBE1产生C到G平均效率为11.04%、11.39%和9.55%;APO-nCas9-XRCC1产生C到G平均效率为6.29%、6.1%和4.45%,ADS-BE1产生C到G平均效率仅为2.15%、0.7%和0.5%;说明ADS-BE1对C5/C6之外的位置不会产生有效编辑,此外,ADS-BE1对于motif(目标C的背景序列)也有偏好,对于C5和C6位置的TC序列靶点,ADS-BE1与传统CGBE1和APO-nCas9-XRCC1效率持平,但是对于GC和CC序列靶点,ADS-BE1编辑效率要高于传统CGBE1和APO-nCas9-XRCC1;但是对AC序列靶点,ADS-BE1极其不敏感,编辑效率远远低于传统CGBE1和APO-nCas9-XRCC1。由上述结果得出:C5/C6极窄窗口和motif序列偏好赋予ADS-BE1高精度编辑性能。
实施例3:ADS-BE1安全性评价
3.1质粒设计及构建
3.1.1为了进一步描述ADS-BE1的安全性,再次以ABE8e为对照,目标位点为ABE site 23,设计4个Cas9非依赖性脱靶检测靶点(表2),合成两条oligo,正链加CACC,反链加上AAAC,连接至已经用BbsI酶切好的nSaCas9-R-loop载体上(图8);

根据indels(插入和缺失)数据统计结果(图5和表7)表明:ABE8e产生indels平均效率为5.25%,ADS-BE1产生indels平均效率为8.1%,CGBE1产生indels平均效率为15.88%,APO-nCas9-XRCC1产生indels平均效率为26.93%,因此,ADS-BE1产生的indels远远低于传统CGBE系列,与原始的ABE8e持平;根据Cas9非依赖性脱靶评价(图6A、图6B、图6C和表8),在4个R-loop位点检测发现ADS-BE1引起极低的C的编辑(C到G,C到T,C到A),这些微量的脱靶编辑事件展现出ADS-BE1较高的安全性;同时,目标位点产生高效的C到G编辑(图7和表9)。
实施例4结构导向设计和linker改造获得高精度的eADS-BE2系列以及宽窗口的ADS-BE2.5
根据TadA-8e结合底物DNA的晶体结构,推测8个氨基酸可能影响TadA-8e与底物DNA的非特异性结合,进而改变ADS-BE2的编辑窗口,通过改变氨基酸的疏水性或者极性得到11种构建,并改变Linker长度获得ADS-BE2-Linker18、ADS-BE2-Linker15、ADS-BE2-Linker13和eADS-BE2构建。

由测序结果可知,ADS-BE2-Linker18、ADS-BE2-Linker15和ADS-BE2-Linker13也是一定程度降低了C7的编辑效率,而删除Linker的eADS-BE2不仅展现最低的C7编辑,还进一步降低C6的编辑,使得编辑更偏好于单个碱基C5。eADS-BE2.1和eADS-BE2.6在内源性测试靶点Site A和FGF6-sg4上的编辑位点更加集中在C5/C6,对于Site A靶点C5位置,eADS-BE2.1和eADS-BE2.6编辑效率分别是原来的1.7倍和2倍,对于FGF6-sg4靶点C6位置,编辑效率分别是原来的1.2倍和1.1倍,而邻近C7分别降低6.6倍和3.6倍,极大降低了旁观者胞嘧啶编辑,具备高精度的特性。
在12个内源性靶点上的再次验证表明,相对于对照BE4max-PU、BE4max-YE1-PU、BE4max-YEE-PU、eA3A-PU、3G5.13-PU、eADS-BE2.1和eADS-BE2.6依然展现精准编辑特性,偏好C5/C6位置产生C到T的编辑;而ADS-BE2.5则展示宽窗口高活性的特点, 部分靶点(如HBG-sg14、FANCF-sg17、Site A)效率和效率甚至超过经典的BE4max-PU,根据12个靶点不同位置的平均C到T效率统计,以对照组中编辑表现相对较精准的BE4max-YEE-PU为对比,其主要编辑窗口C4、C5、C6、C7和C8的平均效率分别为10.7%、63.4%、57.2%、37.6%和11.2%,而eADS-BE2.1和eADS-BE2.6在C5位置轻微降低,平均效率为52.1%和52.7%,而C4位置平均效率分别为8.4%和9.3%,C6位置平均效率分别为24.4%和21.4%,C7位置平均效率分别为4%和5.4%,C8位置平均效率分别为0.3%和0.4%;ADS-BE2.5编辑范围为C2-C9,主要编辑活性窗口为C4-C8,这也与传统的BE4max保持一致。
实施例6 eADS-BE2.1,eADS-BE2.6和ADS-BE2.5安全性评价
6.1质粒设计及构建
6.1.1为了进一步描述eADS-BE2.1、eADS-BE2.6和ADS-BE2.5的安全性,再次以BE4max-PU、BE4max-YE1-PU、BE4max-YEE-PU、eA3A-PU、A3G5.13-PU为对照,目标位点为VEGFA site 2,设计6个Cas9非依赖性脱靶检测靶点(如表11所示),合成两条oligo,正链加CACC,反链加上AAAC,连接至已经用BbsI酶切好的nSaCas9-R-loop载体(如图8所示)上。
6.1.2将6.1.1中构建的质粒经sanger测序,确保完全正确。
6.2细胞转染
第1天用HEK293T(HEK293T细胞为ATCC CRL-3216细胞系)细胞铺种24孔板:
(1)消化HEK293T细胞,按照2×10 5cell/孔接种96孔板。
注:细胞复苏后,一般需传代2次后方可用于转染实验。
第2天转染:
(2)观察各孔细胞状态
注:要求转染前细胞密度应为70%-90%,且状态正常。
(3)质粒转染量如下:
BE4max-PU、BE4max-YE1-PU、BE4max-YEE-PU、eA3A-PU、A3G5.13-PU、eADS-BE2.1、eADS-BE2.6和ADS-BE2.5:3.1中新构建的质粒:VEGFA site 2靶点质粒=400ng:300ng:300ng的质粒用量,转染试剂为PEI(每1μg质粒加3μL PEI),共转染HEK293T宿主,设置n=3孔/组。
6.3基因组提取及扩增子文库的准备
转染后72h,用天根细胞基因组提取试剂盒(DP304)提取细胞基因组DNA。之后用Hi-Tom Gene Editing Detection Kit(诺禾致源)操作流程,设计相对应的鉴定引物(如表12所示),即在正向鉴定引物5’端加上搭桥序列5’-ggagtgagtacggtgtgc-3’(SEQ ID NO:53), 反向鉴定引物5’端加上搭桥序列5’-gagttggatgctggatgg-3’(SEQ ID NO:54),即得到一轮PCR产物,之后利用一轮PCR产物作为模板,进行二轮PCR产物,后混在一起进行切胶回收纯化后进行送公司进行测序(测序的服务提供商为苏州金唯智生物科技有限公司)。
6.4深度测序结果分析与统计
利用BE-analyzer网站分析深度测序结果,即统计C到T比率,并用graphpad prism 9.1.0进行统计作图。如表19和表20、图14和图15所示。
表19 eADS-BE2.1、eADS-BE2.6、ADS-BE2.5和BE4max-PU、BE4max-YE1-PU、BE4max-YEE-PU、eA3A-PU、A3G5.13-PU在VEGFA site2位点产生的非依赖性脱靶对比(单位,%)

表19和表20中,Rep.1、Rep.2和Rep.3为一式三份。
根据以上数据统计结果表明,对照组BE4max-PU、BE4max-YE1-PU、BE4max-YEE-PU、eA3A-PU和A3G5.13-PU产生indels平均效率分别为6.2%、3.4%、1.5%、4.5%和3.9%,ADS-BE2.5、eADS-BE2.1和eADS-BE2.6产生indels平均效率分别为4.6%、1.8%和1.2%,宽窗口ADS-BE2.5产生indels明显低于经典的BE4max-PU;eADS-BE2.1和eADS-BE2.6在保证高精度的同时也保持较低水平的indels。根据Cas9非依赖性脱靶评价,在6个R-loop位点检测发现,ADS-BE2.5产生的非依赖性脱靶事件也是低于传统的BE4max-PU,特别是在R-loop1和R-loop3位点降低幅度最大,而eADS-BE2.1和eADS-BE2.6引起极低的C到T编辑,微量的脱靶编辑事件和低水平的indel表明eADS-BE2.1和eADS-BE2.6同时兼容高精度和高安全性。
虽然以上描述了本发明的具体实施方式,但是本领域的技术人员应当理解,这些仅是举例说明,在不背离本发明的原理和实质的前提下,可以对这些实施方式做出多种变更或修改。因此,本发明的保护范围由所附权利要求书限定。
