CRISPR/Cas9 stands as a revolutionary and versatile gene editing technology. At its core, the Cas9 DNA endonuclease is guided with precision by a specifically designed single-guide RNA (gRNA). This guidance system facilitates the introduction of double-stranded breaks (DSBs) within the DNA. Subsequent imprecise repairs, mainly through the non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) pathway, yield insertions or deletions, resulting in frameshift mutations. These mutations are instrumental in achieving the successful knockout of the target gene. In this chapter, we describe all necessary steps to create and design a gRNA for a gene knockout to a target gene before to transfer it to a target plant.
CRISPR/Cas9 是一种革命性的、用途广泛的基因编辑技术。其核心是 Cas9 核酸内切酶由经过精心设计的单链向导 RNA(sgRNA)精确制导。该制导系统有助于在 DNA 中引入双链断裂(DSB)。随后,主要通过非同源末端连接(NHEJ)途径进行的不精确修复会导致插入或缺失,从而产生移码突变。这些突变对于成功敲除靶基因至关重要。在本章中,我们将描述在将其转移到靶植物之前,创建和设计针对靶基因的 sgRNA 以实现基因敲除的所有必要步骤。
