Problems solved by technology

However, these Cas9s are either easy to off-target (that is, cut at non-target sites), or have complex PAM sequences, or have low editing activity, making it difficult to be widely used

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of gene editing, and particularly relates to a CRISPR / Cas12 gene editing system and application thereof. The gene editing system is a complex formed by specific Cas12 protein and sgRNA, and can accurately locate a targeted DNA sequence and cut the targeted DNA sequence, thereby causing double-chain fracture damage on the target sequence; and the gene editing is carried out in cells or in vitro. The specific Cas12J-8 protein has a relatively small number of amino acids; the specific Cas12J-8 protein, the Cas12a protein and the Cas12b protein all have high editing efficiency; and PAM sequences recognized by the three types of proteins are all very simple. The method has a wide application prospect in the field of gene editing.

Description

technical field [0001] This application belongs to the technical field of gene editing, and specifically relates to Cas12 protein, a gene editing system containing the Cas12 protein and related applications. Background technique [0002] The CRISPR / Cas system is an adaptive immune system evolved by bacteria and archaea to resist the invasion of foreign viruses or plasmids. In the CRISPR / Cas12a and CRISPR / Cas12j systems, crRNA (CRISPR-derived RNA) and Cas12 protein form a complex to recognize the PAM (Protospacer Adjacent Motif) sequence of the target site. After recognition, crRNA will form a complementary structure with the targeted DNA sequence, and the Cas protein will perform the function of cutting DNA, resulting in DNA breakage and damage. The CRISPR / Cas12b system also contains tracrRNA (trans-activating RNA), which forms a complex with crRNA and Cas12b to function. tracrRNA and crRNA can be fused into a single-stranded single-stranded guide RNA (single guide RNA, sg...
