Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of biology and particularly relates to Cas9 nuclease and application. The Cas9 nuclease (Cas9-K918A) disclosed by the invention has the activity of the Cas9 nuclease, is suitable for a CRISPR / Cas9 system and is obtained by mutating 918th lysine of wild type Cas9 nuclease into alanine. The Cas9 nuclease (Cas9-K918A) is adopted for cutting DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) double strands to generate a predominantly-broken terminal; a basic group complemented with the predominantly-broken terminal can be added in a connection filling-in mode, so that accurate edition of a specific position of a genomic DNA fragment can be realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and in particular relates to a Cas9 nuclease K918A and its application. Background technique [0002] Since the completion of the Human Genome Project and the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements, scientists have analyzed and identified a large number of genes and DNA regulatory elements in the genome [1,2]. DNA regulatory elements that play an important role in the regulation of gene expression include promoters, enhancers, silencers, and insulators. However, the functions of most regulatory elements have not been experimentally verified and elucidated [2-8]. Exploring the function of genes and DNA regulatory elements can be studied through genetic DNA segment editing. [0003] Early gene editing and gene function modification were achieved through gene transposition and transgenesis [9-14]. With the development of sequencing technology, reverse genetics has been applied to make specific mutations in the...
