摘要: 目的 构建靶向小鼠miR let-7a的高效CRISPR/Cas9系统。方法 根据小鼠miR let-7a的两个编码位点let-7a-1和let-7a-2的编码序列各设计了两对dual-sgRNAs导向序列,通过sgRNA表达载体的构建、小鼠N2a细胞的共转染、药物筛选、阳性细胞PCR产物测序以及TA克隆测序分析等实验步骤完成了4对dual-sgRNAs导向序列的打靶效力分析。结果 所构建的4对打靶载体在细胞中发挥了作用,打靶位点均出现了碱基插入或缺失,药物筛选阳性细胞打靶位点RCR产物Sanger法测序峰图在4个靶点位置均有套峰出现。TA克隆测序结果表明本研究设计的4对 dual-sgRNAs导向序列的打靶效率分别为42.10%、62.50%、52.63%和47.37%。 结论 本研究所设计的4对dual-sgRNAs导向序列均可以有效介导Cas9 蛋白切割小鼠 miR let-7a,形成突变效应。为后续miR let-7a作用靶点的深入挖掘,阐明其发挥抑癌功能的作用机制提供了依据。

Abstract: Objective To establish effective CRISPR/Cas9 system targeting mouse miR let-7a. Methods Two pairs of dual-sgRNAs sequences were designed according to the coding sequences of two coding sites let-7a-1 and let-7a-2 of mouse let-7a respectively. The targeting potency of four pairs of sgRNA was analyzed through the construction of sgRNA expression vector, cotransfection of N2a cells, drug screening. Positive cells' PCR products sequencing and TA clone sequencing. Results The four pairs of targeting vectors played a role in the cells, and there were base insertions or deletions at the targeting sites, and the Sanger sequencing peaks of RCR products at the drug screening positive cells showed nested peaks at all four targeting sites.The results of TA cloning sequencing showed that the targeting efficiency of the four pairs of dual-sgRNAs targeting sequences designed in this study was 42.10%, 62.50%, 52.63% and 47.37% respectively. Conclusions The results showed that the four pairs of dual-sgRNAs-directed sequences designed in this study deavaged miR let-7a by inducing Cas9 protein effectively and thus generated a mutating effect in mice. Our study laid a foundation for further exploring of let-7a targets and elucidating the mechanism of its' anti-cancer function.
