Problems solved by technology

Although the exact mechanism by which Lin28A promotes tumorigenesis is still unclear, there has been a large amount of evidence that the Lin28 / let-7 bidirectional negative feedback pathway can combine with some factors (such as RAS, MYC, NF-κB) to form a complex network involved carcinogenesis

[0033] Example 2 Preparation of human melanoma cells and human hepatoma cells knockout Lin28A gene cell lines

[0034] Resuscitate human melanoma cells (A375 cell line, Shanghai Cell Bank of the Chinese Academy of Sciences), put the cells into a 10% FBS+DMEM culture flask, and store them at 37°C, 5% CO. 2 The cells were subcultured 1 day before transfection.

[0035] Aspirate the medium in the T75 flask for culturing A375 cells, add 2 mL of 0.25% trypsin from a 4°C refrigerator to cover the bottom of the bottle evenly, place it in a 37°C incubator for 3-5 min, take it out, and shake to find out The cells are detached from the bottom, shake them all off, add 3 mL of pre-warmed 10% DMEM in a 37°C water bath, and pipette with a 10 mL pipette for 6 to 8 times without leaving dead corners. It is difficult to pipette at the mouth of the bottle. The pipette can be aligned with the bottle mouth, and the medium can be covered with a small force to cover the cells close to the bottle m...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of molecular biology and biomedicine and in particular relates to application of a gRNA (guide Ribonucleic Acid) sequence based on a CRISPR / Cas9 (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats / CRISPR associated protein 9) system on knockout of a human Lin28A gene and application to tumor treatment. According to a design principle of CRISPR / Cas9, 6 guide RNAs (gRNA) are designed and a sequence table is shown as SEQ ID NO.1 to SEQ ID NO.6; the guide RNAs are constructed on a PX458 carrier and two efficient target gRNAs are obtained through activity detection and screening. The CRISPR / Cas9 system guided by the two gRNAs is utilized in human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines (HepG2) and human melanoma cell lines (A375), and the human Lin28A gene can be effectively knocked out; the system is easy to operate and the human Lin28A gene knockout efficiency is high, so that the system is applicable to various tumor cell models. The gRNA provided by the invention is hopefully applied to a new drug for treating tumors.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of molecular biology and biomedicine, in particular to a method for CRISPR / Cas9 to specifically knock out the human genome Lin28A gene and a gRNA for targeting the human Lin28A gene. Background technique [0002] Gene knockout, that is, a technical means for a specific gene to lose its function by destroying or changing its gene sequence. Commonly used gene knockout methods include: zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs) (Miller et al., 2007; Porteus and Baltimore, 2003; Wood et al., 2011), transcription factor activator-like nucleases (TALENs) (Miller et al. ., 2011; Wood et al., 2011; Zhang et al., 2011), as well as the recently discovered prokaryotes type II adaptive immune system CRISPER / Cas9 system (Cong et al., 2013; Mali et al., 2013) Wait. [0003] The CRISPER / Cas9 system was originally used by the bacterial immune system to defend against foreign viruses or plasmids. In the second type of CRISPR system, Ca...
