因此,作者研究了每个辅助基因,发现删除Csx29能够恢复对MS2的干扰活性,且重新补救Csx29又降低了干扰(图1f、g)。可编程Cas7-11的体外切割反应 作者将纯化的DiCas7-11蛋白与靶向MS2ssRNA片段5'-或3'-的crRNA一起孵育,并观察到两个位点的切割(图2a),这些位点靠近结合位点的3'端并相隔5-6nt。不同位置的靶...
Disclosed are methods of RNA-triggered protein cleavage by the CRISPR Cas7-11-Csx29 complex. A guide RNA specifically hybridizes to a RNA target, and Csx29 cleaves Csx30 when Cas7-11:Csx29 complex binds to the target RNA.
与单独的DiCas7-11相比,在大肠杆菌中表达完整的D.ishimotoniiCRISPR基因座降低了对MS2的干扰。因此,作者研究了每个辅助基因,发现删除Csx29能够恢复对MS2的干扰活性,且重新补救Csx29又降低了干扰(图1f、g)。 可编程Cas7-11的体外切割反应 作者将纯化的DiCas7-11蛋白与靶向MS2ssRNA片段5'-或3'-的crRNA一起孵育,...
In addition, Cas7-11 binds the associated caspase-like Csx29 TPR-CHAT protease, suggesting a potential mechanism of target RNA-induced protease activity for antiviral immunity. Although Cas13 exhibits nonspecific, collateral RNA cleavage activity, Cas7-11 specifically cleaves a target RNA complementary...
e, DiCas7-11 incubated with either ssRNA or dsRNA targeting and crRNAs tiling the MS2 target. f, In vitro cleavage of MS2 ssRNA at 37 °C with varying concentrations of DiCas7-11 incubated with a crRNA against the target with and without Csx29 protein. MS2 ssRNA target is 5′ ...
