摘要:

旨在开发一款高效适配茄科作物的双碱基编辑工具,以突破现有碱基编辑系统在茄科作物中适配性差、编辑效率低等问题。研究将核酸酶功能部分丧失的 Cas9 缺口酶(nCas9)与高效腺嘌呤脱氨酶 ABE8e、优化型胞嘧啶脱氨酶 sdd7-mini 及尿嘧啶糖基化抑制剂 UGI 等元件进行融合,依据茄科作物的启动子偏好性和密码子使用频率进行系统性优化,最终构建双碱基编辑器 TPDBE-S。在番茄和茄子原生质体瞬时转化试验中,该编辑器表现出极高的编辑效率。在本氏烟草稳定转化体系中,通过靶向 PDS 基因验证,5 个阳性转基因家系中有 4 个出现明显白化表型,证实其稳定编辑能力。该编辑器的编辑窗口与 ABE8e和 sdd7-mini的特性高度一致,且对茄科作物密码子偏好性和启动子活性的优化显著提升了编辑效率与适配性。TPDBE-S 的构建采用模块化设计,基于 tRNA 自切割机制的多靶点表达盒可通过一步基因合成实现快速组装,成本低且操作简便。该工具填补了茄科作物专用双碱基编辑空白。

Abstract:

This study seeks to develop a highly efficient dual-base editing tool for solanaceous crops to address the challenges of poor compatibility and low editing efficiency associated with existing base editing systems in these plants. The research involved fusing the nickase Cas9 enzyme (nCas9),which has partially lost its nuclease function,with components such as the highly efficient adenine deaminase ABE8e,the optimized cytosine deaminase sdd7-mini,and the uracil glycosylation inhibitor UGI. Systematic optimization was conducted based on the promoter preferences and codon usage frequencies specific to solanaceous crops. Ultimately,the dual-base editor TPDBE-S was constructed. In transient transformation experiments using tomato and eggplant protoplasts,this editor exhibited exceptionally high editing efficiency. In the stable transformation system of tobacco,targeting the PDS gene verification revealed that four out of five positive transgenic families exhibited pronounced albinism phenotypes,thereby confirming the stable editing capability. The editing window of this editor aligns closely with the characteristics of ABE8e and sdd7-mini. Furthermore,optimizing codon preference and promoter activity in Solanaceae crops significantly enhances editing efficiency and adaptability. The construction of TPDBE-S employs a modular design. The multi-target expression cassette,based on the tRNA self-cleaving mechanism,can be rapidly assembled through one-step gene synthesis,which is both cost-effective and straightforward. This tool addresses the gap in double-base editing specifically for Solanaceous crops.
