Efficient screening of sgRNA mediated by CRISPR/Cas9 via TRV viral vectors in cotton

  • 摘要: 【目的】 设计基于TRV病毒载体介导的基因编辑sgRNA投递系统,快速检测sgRNA基因编辑效率,高效筛选靶标基因sgRNA【方法】 利用infusion反应将靶基因sgRNA组装至TRV病毒表达载体,在Cas9-OE转基因棉花叶片中瞬时表达, 结合PCR和Sanger测序验证sgRNA介导的靶基因突变效果。 【结果】 不同TRV载体介导的sgRNA投递系统,通过CLA1基因和GhCOR27基因sgRNA验证其编辑效率,突变率均达65%及以上,突变类型多为碱基缺失,少数为碱基插入或替换。棉花GhU6启动子驱动的投递系统编辑效率达80%以上,高于拟南芥AtU6启动子(60%~70%)。同时,组装了tRNA-gRNA-tRNA表达盒(PTG)的投递系统编辑效率略高于其它投递系统。 【结论】 四套TRV病毒介导的sgRNA投递系统能够在棉花中诱导基因编辑,在筛选验证sgRNA编辑效果方面均能发挥作用,其中TRV-GhU6::PTG-sgRNA投递系统在效率上更具有优势,作为应用于高通量高效筛选靶向基因sgRNA的工具具有更高的潜在应用价值。

     

    Abstract: 【Objective】 To screen sgRNAs with high targeted mutagenesis for specific genes in cotton by designing vectors carrying sgRNA expressing cassettes based on TRV virus delivery system to rapidly detect editing efficiency. 【Methods】 The sgRNA cassettes were assembled into the TRV viral vector using the infusion reaction, transiently expressed in Cas9-OE transgenic cotton leaves. Mutageneses for targeted genes were verified by RE-PCR and Sanger sequencing. 【Results】 Different sgRNA delivery systems carrying cotton CLA1 and COR27 gene targeted sgRNA respectively were expressed in Cas9-OE transgenic cotton, and results indicated the frequency of mutations reached more than 65% for all the four systems. All plants showed mutations in the gene with nucleotide deletions being more frequent than insertions or replacements. The editing frequency of delivery system driven by GhU6 promoter was higher (80% or more) than that driven by AtU6 promoter (60%-70%). Moreover, delivery systems with tRNA-gRNA-tRNA (PTG) cassette had slightly higher editing efficiency than those of the other delivery systems. 【Conclusion】 TRV virus-mediated sgRNA delivery systems are functional for gene editing in cotton and act as tools for highly efficient detection of mutations induced by targeted gene sgRNA. The TRV-GhU6:: PTG-sgRNA delivery system has more utility value than others as a tool for high-throughput screening of targeted gene sgRNA.
