Abstract
Description
本发明涉及基因编辑、生物细胞技术领域,特别是涉及一种基因生物制剂及其制备方法和应用。The invention relates to the fields of gene editing and biological cell technology, in particular to a gene biological preparation and its preparation method and application.
近几年来,基因编辑技术发展迅速,尤其是CRISPR-cas9,CRISPR(Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromicrepeats)规律成簇间隔短回文重复;Cas9(CRISPR associated nuclease)是CRISPR相关核酸酶,CRISPR-Cas9是最新出现的一种由RNA指导的,利用Cas9核酸酶对靶向基因进行编辑的技术。2013年2月15日发表在《科学》(Science)的两篇文章,证明Cas9系统能在293T, K562, iPS等多种细胞中,进行有效的靶向酶切,且非同源重组(NHEJ)及同源重组(HR)各自效率在3-25%之间,重组效率与TALEN剪切效果相当。文章还证明,多个靶点可以同时进行靶向剪切。这些工作将进一步靶向基因操纵推向高潮,使得多个基因敲除、敲入变得更为简单、高效。In recent years, gene editing technology has developed rapidly, especially CRISPR-cas9, CRISPR (Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromicrepeats) regularly clustered interspaced short palindromic repeats; Cas9 (CRISPR associated nuclease) is a CRISPR-related nuclease, and CRISPR-Cas9 is the latest RNA-guided gene editing method using Cas9 nuclease technology. Two articles published in "Science" (Science) on February 15, 2013, proved that the Cas9 system can perform effective targeted enzyme digestion in 293T, K562, iPS and other cells, and non-homologous recombination (NHEJ ) and homologous recombination (HR) each have an efficiency between 3-25%, and the recombination efficiency is equivalent to the cutting effect of TALEN. The article also demonstrates that multiple targets can be targeted for simultaneous shearing. These works will push further targeted gene manipulation to a climax, making multiple gene knockout and knockin easier and more efficient.
经过多年研究,Cas9核酸酶对靶向基因进行编辑技术已趋于成熟。可实现对目标基因的定点突变、基因敲除和基因敲入。目前,该技术在动植物育种、干细胞定向分化、遗传疾定点修复等领域得到迅猛发展。After years of research, the technology of editing targeted genes with Cas9 nuclease has matured. Site-directed mutagenesis, gene knockout and gene knockin of target genes can be realized. At present, this technology has been rapidly developed in the fields of animal and plant breeding, directed differentiation of stem cells, and fixed-point repair of genetic diseases.
一般情形下,CRISPR-Cas9基因敲除技术中,使用一条gRNA靶向目标序列进行基因剪切,并利用修复时的缺失,进行基因剪切,增加碱基,造成移码突变,导致基因沉默;还有一种情形,使用两条gRNA靶向目标序列进行基因剪切,造成基因片段缺失,导致基因沉默。但这两种方法均可能出现一个问题:即使造成基因移码或基因片段缺失,但基因仍旧可以正常表达出蛋白的情况,此时基因所表达的蛋白为非原始野生型蛋白,其功能及性状都可能发生改变,这种基因有可能引发其他副作用产生。Under normal circumstances, in the CRISPR-Cas9 gene knockout technology, a gRNA is used to target the target sequence for gene splicing, and the deletion during repair is used to carry out gene splicing, increase bases, cause frameshift mutations, and result in gene silencing; In another case, two gRNAs are used to target the target sequence for gene splicing, resulting in the deletion of gene fragments, resulting in gene silencing. However, there may be a problem in both methods: even if the gene frame shift or gene fragment deletion is caused, the gene can still express the protein normally. At this time, the protein expressed by the gene is not the original wild-type protein, and its function and traits may be altered, and this gene may cause other side effects.
基于此,有必要针对上述问题,提供一种基因敲除插序方法,通过优化方式使目的基因被剪切后产生可翻译蛋白,且敲除基因可以被降解掉并使其无害化。本发明还提供使用基因敲除插序方法制得的基因生物制剂及其应用。Based on this, it is necessary to provide a gene knockout and insertion method to solve the above problems, in which a translatable protein can be produced after the target gene is cleaved in an optimized way, and the knockout gene can be degraded and rendered harmless.

As shown in Figures 3a, 3b, and 3c, using NT cells as negative controls, CT106 and CT090 cells had normal expression of green fluorescent protein GFP, indicating that the gene expression was normal, and the expression level of GFP could be regarded as the positive rate of gene expression. However, the expression of CAR in CT090 with IN044 insertion sequence was completely silenced, which proved that when the IN044 sequence was inserted into the extracellular region of the membrane-expressed protein, the translated protein of this sequence could mediate protein degradation and realize protein expression silencing.

Taking NT cells and CT106 cells as controls, the proliferation of CT090 cells was not significantly different from that of NT and CT106 cells, which proved that the insertion of the IN044 sequence had no significant effect on cell proliferation.

After mixing and co-culturing for 6 hours according to the effect-to-target ratio of 1:27, 1:9, 1:3, and 1:1, the in vitro killing efficiency was calculated. The results are shown in Figure 5, CT106 cells without IN044 sequence insertion exerted the killing function of normal CAR-T on 293T-CLDN18.2 positive target cells, while CT090 cells with IN044 sequence insertion on 293T-CLDN18.2 positive target cells Same as NT cells, no specific killing effect.

The test results are shown in Fig. Positive target cells have killing function, and normally release cytokines, and IFN-γ cytokines are proportional to the number of positive target cells; while CT090 cells with IN044 sequence insertion have the same effect on 293T-CLDN18.2 positive target cells as NT cells , no specific killing effect, and basically no cytokine release, which proves that the insertion of the IN044 sequence leads to the degradation of the CAR structure and the knockout of the gene.

第5天:检测外源性基因的表达Day 5: Detection of exogenous gene expression
6.4检测CT106细胞PD1基因敲除前后表达情况6.4 Detection of PD1 gene expression in CT106 cells before and after knockout
如图7a、7b、7c所示,CT106在使用CRISPR-Cas9技术插入IN044序列至PD-1基因胞外段后,CT106-IN044细胞表面PD1表达完全沉默,可以证明该敲除方法可有效沉默细胞膜表达蛋白。如图8所示,CT106细胞与CT106-IN044细胞在增殖能力上无显著差异。As shown in Figures 7a, 7b, and 7c, after CT106 inserted the IN044 sequence into the extracellular segment of the PD-1 gene using CRISPR-Cas9 technology, the expression of PD1 on the surface of CT106-IN044 cells was completely silenced, which can prove that this knockout method can effectively silence the cell membrane express protein. As shown in Figure 8, there was no significant difference in proliferation ability between CT106 cells and CT106-IN044 cells.
实施例4Example 4
本实施例用以说明IN044序列使用CRISPR-Cas9敲入技术可沉默CAR-T细胞分泌anti-PD-1蛋白的表达,具体步骤如下:This example is used to illustrate that the IN044 sequence can silence the expression of anti-PD-1 protein secreted by CAR-T cells using CRISPR-Cas9 knock-in technology. The specific steps are as follows:
S900:使用CRISPR-Cas9技术敲入IN044序列至CT032细胞的anti-PD1基因中。S900: Knock in the IN044 sequence into the anti-PD1 gene of CT032 cells using CRISPR-Cas9 technology.
合成gRNA-antiPD1,利用S800中的CRISPR-Cas9技术步骤将IN044序列敲入CT032细胞的anti-PD1基因中。结果图9所示,CT032细胞中antiPD1重组抗体蛋白正常分泌,而接受过CRISPR-Cas9敲入IN044的CT032-IN044细胞上清中已检测不到anti-PD1重组抗体蛋白表达。如图10所示,CT032细胞与CT032-IN044细胞在增殖能力上无显著差异。证明本发明中的技术可有效沉默分泌型蛋白基因表达,并对被编辑细胞无显著影响。Synthesize gRNA-antiPD1, and use the CRISPR-Cas9 technology steps in S800 to knock the IN044 sequence into the anti-PD1 gene of CT032 cells. Results As shown in Figure 9, the antiPD1 recombinant antibody protein was secreted normally in CT032 cells, while the anti-PD1 recombinant antibody protein expression could not be detected in the supernatant of CT032-IN044 cells that had been knocked into IN044 by CRISPR-Cas9. As shown in Figure 10, there was no significant difference in proliferation ability between CT032 cells and CT032-IN044 cells. It is proved that the technology in the present invention can effectively silence the expression of the secreted protein gene, and has no significant effect on the edited cells.
本发明提供的基因编辑方法,可有效沉默被编辑基因,使得膜表达蛋白和分泌型蛋白基因完全沉默。The gene editing method provided by the present invention can effectively silence the edited gene, so that the membrane-expressed protein and secreted protein genes can be completely silenced.
