초록
CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing system is an efficient method to mutation in a sequence specific manner. Here we report the direct transfection of the Cas9 nuclease and gene specific guide RNA can be used in BM-N cell line derived from Bombyx mori ovarian tissue to enfeeble function of endogenous gene in vitro. We have used gene editing system to negative regulation components of major signaling cascade, the Toll pathway, which controls B. mori resistance to microbe infections, such as fungi and gram positive bacteria. We demonstrate that the IkB-like protein Cactus may controls the activation of transcription factors such as Rel A and Rel B. The direct transfection of Cas9 nuclease and Cactus-specific guide-RNA complex may be used in BM-N cells to disrupt the function of endogenous genes in vitro. A mutation frequency of 30–40% was observed in the transfected cells, and various mutations caused the target region. Moreover, RT-PCR analysis revealed that Cactus gene was down regulated after these mutations. More importantly, mutation of BmCactus stimulated expression of lysozyme, moricin, and lebocin genes. These results suggest that the CRISPR/ Cas9 systems are expected to efficiently induce site-specific mutations and it was possible to produce antimicrobial peptide through the gene editing.
Abstract
CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing system is an efficient method to mutation in a sequence specific manner.
