Abstract

The invention provides a method for constructing a mouse model of autism spectrum disorder, which is characterized in that it comprises: using embryo microinjection technology to inject a methylation carrier into the cytoplasm and targeting the MeCP2 gene TSS in the fertilized egg stage of the mouse The gRNA vector of the region is obtained to obtain a mouse model of autism spectrum disorder; wherein, the methylation vector contains a dCas9 fragment and human DNMT3L and DNMT3A catalytic domains. The site-specific methylation carrier of the present invention can effectively realize site-specific methylation in cells.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a site-specific methylation technology in mice, which belongs to the field of epigenetic editing, and more specifically relates to the fusion of CRISPR system and methyltransferase, combined with embryonic microinjection technology to carry out in vivo MeCP2 Gene-specific methylation to create a mouse model of autism spectrum disorder. This technology can also be used to simulate and construct mouse models of physiological state changes caused by abnormal methylation in the development of other genes, and to interfere with diseases caused by abnormal epigenetic modifications in vivo. Background technique [0002] Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are a complex group of neurological disorders that affect 1.5% of newborn children. People with ASD have symptoms such as social impairment, anxiety, and repetitive stereotyped behaviors. ASD has a strong genetic component and clinical heterogeneity. More than 400 genes have been show...
