Abstract

The invention discloses a method for site-directed mutagenesis of plant cellulose synthase CESA and application of a cesa mutant in preparation of nanocrystals, and belongs to the field of plant genetic engineering and nanomaterials. The method comprises the following steps: (1) editing a target site according to CRISPR / Cas9 of a cellulose synthase CESA gene, designing a primer, and amplifying to construct a target sequence; (2) constructing the target sequence on a vector to obtain a recombinant vector; and (3) transforming the recombinant vector into a plant to obtain point mutants and frame-shift mutants of the three CESA genes of the secondary cell wall. The structure and the property of the transgenic plant cellulose containing the point mutant or the frameshift mutant are changed, and the cellulose nanocrystal with a smaller size can be prepared by hydrolyzing the transgenic plant straw through an acid hydrolysis method. The rice cellulose nanostructure is improved by utilizing a gene editing technology, and a low-cost and high-quality cellulose raw material is provided for efficiently preparing small-size cellulose nanocrystal particles.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of plant genetic engineering and nanometer materials, in particular to a method for site-directed mutation of plant cellulose synthase CESA and the application of cesa mutants in preparing nanocrystals. Background technique [0002] Cellulose nanocrystals are one-dimensional rod-shaped nanoparticles with high specific surface area, low density and excellent mechanical properties. It has nano-effects, customizable surface chemical properties, anisotropy and optical properties, and also inherits the excellent properties of native cellulose such as renewability, low toxicity, biocompatibility, easy availability and low cost, making it It becomes an ideal nanomaterial for a variety of applications. The geometric size and structural parameters of cellulose nanocrystals are different due to different material sources, extraction methods and manufacturing conditions. The width is 5-20nm, the length is 100-500nm, and the cr...
