AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This method enables precise and efficient RNA editing with manageable off-target rates, restoring functional proteins and correcting genetic mutations without inducing immune responses, demonstrating transformative potential for research and therapeutics.

Problems solved by technology

Most of the current tools for DNA or RNA editing rely on introducing exogenous proteins into living organisms, which is subject to potential risks or technical barriers due to possible aberrant effector activity, delivery limits and immunogenicity.
Some other tools require complicated chemical modifications, however still resulting in a low editing efficiency.

Testing the RNA Editing Method of the Invention on a Reporter

[0343]It has been reported that Cas13 family proteins (C2c2) can edit RNA in mammalian cells. We further tested this system under various conditions. First, we constructed a dual fluorescence reporter system based on mCherry and EGFP fluorescence by introducing 3×GS linker targeting sequence containing stop codon between mCherry and EGFP gene. In addition, we deleted the start codon ATG of EGFP in order to reduce the leakage of EGFP translation.

[0344]Dual fluorescence reporter-1 comprises sequence of mCherry (SEQ ID NO:1), sequence comprising 3×GS linker and the targeted A (SEQ ID NO:2), and sequence of eGFP (SEQ ID NO:3).

Optimizing the Factors for Designing dRNAs

[0350]Next, we set out to optimize the dRNA to achieve higher editing efficiency. First, we aimed to determine which base in the opposite site of the targeted adenine favors editing. Previous studies showed theoppositebaseoftargetedadenosinewouldaffecttheeditingefficiently. We thus designed 71 nt dRNAs with a mismatch N (A, U, C and G) in the middle position opposite to targeted A. Based on the FACS results, we found that the four different dRNAs editing efficiently as follow: C>A>U>G (FIGS. 2A and 2B). Recently, it has been reported that little bubble in the target UAG site may be of benefit to the editing efficiency. Therefore, we designed dRNAs containing two or three mismatch bases with target UAG site to test our hypothesis. 16 different 71 nt dRNAs were designed and constructed on the dRNA vector with BFP marker using Golden Gate cloning method. We found that the dRNAs with CCA and GCA sequence are of the highest efficiency, which mean...

Editing RNA Transcribed from Endogenous Genes

[0355]Next, we tested whether dRNA could mediate mRNA transcribed from endogenous genes. We designed dRNA targeting four genes KRAS, PPIB, β-Actin and GAPDH. For KRAS mRNA, we designed 91, 111, 131, 151, 171 and 191 nucleotides long dRNAs (FIG. 4A) with sequences as shown below.
