Embodiment 1
[0088] DNA and amino acid sequences of wild-type As Cpf1 polypeptides as encoded in isolated nucleic acid vectors
[0089] The table below shows wild-type (WT) As Cpf1 nucleases expressed as polypeptide fusion proteins described in the present invention. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that many different DNA sequences can encode / express the same amino acid (AA) sequence, as in many cases more than one codon can encode the same amino acid. The DNA sequences shown below are used as examples only and other DNA sequences encoding the same protein (eg same amino acid sequence) are contemplated. It is also understood that additional features, elements or tags, such as NLS domains etc., may be added to the sequence. The examples show WT AsCpf1 showing the amino acid and DNA sequences of those proteins that are Cpf1 alone and Cpf1 fused to both the C-terminal and N-terminal SV40NLS domains and the HIS tag.

[0125] An isolated vector expressing a nucleic acid encoding a human codon-optimized AsCpf1 polypeptide fusion protein and a human cell line stably expressing the AsCpf1 polypeptide fusion protein were prepared.
[0126] The reference amino acid for AsCpf1 has been published. See Zetsche, B., Gootenberg, J.S., Abudayyeh, O.O., Slaymaker, I.M., Makarova, K.S., Essletzbichler, P., Volz, S.E., Joung, J., van der Oost, J., Regev, A., Koonin, E.V. and Zhang, F. (2015) Cpf1 is a single RNA-guidedendonuclease of a class 2 CRISPR-Cas system. Cell 163:1-13. Plasmids encoding human codon-optimized AsCpf1, flanked by a nuclear localization signal (NLS) and a 5'V5 epitope tag were generated by the Synthetic Biology division of Integrated DNATechnologies. The expression cassette is flanked by 5'XhoI and 3'EcoRI restriction enzyme sites ( figure 2 ). The Cpf1 plasmid was digested with XhoI and EcoRI (NEB), gel purified using a column-based purification system (Qiagen) and ligated into a...
Embodiment 3
[0145] crRNA length optimization: testing for truncation of the 5'20 base universal loop domain.
[0146] A set of 6 loci in the human HPRT1 gene was selected to study the length optimization of AsCpf1 crRNA. Target-specific protospacer domains each with 3' 24 bases and 5' loop structures with 20, 19, 18 and 17 bases representing a set of consecutive 1 base deletions from the 5' end were synthesized domain of a series of crRNAs. A second set of crRNAs were synthesized, each having a 3' 21 base target-specific protospacer domain and likewise a 5' loop domain of 20, 19, 18 and 17 bases at the same position.
[0147] A HEK cell line stably expressing the AsCpf1 endonuclease was used in these studies (Example 2). Anti-HPRT1 crRNA was separately mixed with Lipofectamine RNAiMAX (Life Technologies) in reverse transfection format and transfected into HEK-Cpf1 cell line. Transfections were performed at 40,000 cells per well in a 96-well plate format. RNA was introduced at a final ...
