  • the primers used to make the in vivo transcription template are the corresponding sequences in Table 1 (Zfy1-A ⁇ B; Ube1y1-A ⁇ B; Kdm5d-A ⁇ B; Eif2s3y-A ⁇ B; Ddx3y-A ⁇ B; Usp9y-A ⁇ B ; Sry-A ⁇ B; Erdr1-A ⁇ B; and sgRNA-R); sgRNA target sequences are the corresponding sequences in Table 2.
  • mice targeting the other six genes had a normal sex ratio ( Figures 5B and 5C). Male mice targeted for deletion of the Eif2s3y gene were infertile and testicular dysplasia (Fig.
  • mice that deleted the other five genes were fertile and could be mated with wild-type female mice to produce offspring (Table 5, Table 6).
  • mice that deleted the Zfy1 or Kdm5d gene had lower testicular body weight, whereas mice that deleted the Ube1y1 or Dxd3y gene had lower viability of normal sperm (Fig. 5D to 5F, Table 5).
  • Histological analysis of testicular tissue also indicated that only the Eif2s3y gene of the six genes caused defects in spermatogonial differentiation (Fig. 5G).
  • Example 6 One-step method to obtain a chimeric monkey with no chimerism
  • the present inventors examined whether the C-CRISPR method can be used to construct non-chimeric gene-editing monkeys.
  • the present inventors made a targeted knockout of the Prrt2 gene of cynomolgus monkey (Macaca fascicularis) in order to construct an animal model of Paroxysmal Kinesigenic Dyskinesia (PKD).
  • the inventors first designed ten sgRNAs (referring to one sgRNA per injection) for the exon 2 of the Prrt2 gene using the traditional CRISPR/Cas9 strategy, and injected the embryos (one for each injection) into these sgRNAs, and then Detection is performed at the blastocyst stage.
  • the primers used to make the in vivo transcription template are the corresponding sequences in Table 1 (Prrt2-A and sgRNA-R); the sgRNA target sequences are the corresponding sequences in Table 2.
  • sgRNA-Prrt2-A was highly efficient in targeting genes (Fig. 6A and Fig. 11).
  • the inventors injected sgRNA-Prrt2-A and Cas9 mRNA into monkey fertilized eggs together, and transplanted 55 such embryos into 17 surrogate mothers in the two-cell stage. Received 6 abortions and 4 live monkeys. After genomic analysis of the tails of ten monkeys, it was found that two stillbirths (#2 and #3) and three live monkeys (#4, #8, and #10) had 20-60% different degrees of Prrt2 deletion. The remaining 5 monkeys were not genetically edited (Fig. 6F, Table 7).
  • the inventors In order to try the C-CRISPR method, the inventors additionally constructed three sgRNAs (sgPrrt2-B to sgPrrt2-D) targeting the exon 3 of the Prrt2 gene, and injecting these sgRNAs in the fertilized eggs, etc. The efficiency is detected by the blastocyst stage.
  • the primers used to make the in vivo transcription template are the corresponding sequences in Table 1 (Prrt2-B to D); the sgRNA target sequences are the corresponding sequences in Table 2.
  • the inventors have found that all of these sgRNAs are capable of introducing DNA cleavage at the targeting site (Fig. 11A).
  • control group that is, the blastomeres of eight eight-cell embryos injected with only a single sgRNA (sgPrrt2-C), were 90% wild-type, and another 10% were single allele mutations, with high chimerism.
  • the characteristics of sex were consistent (3 chimeric embryos and 5 wild-type embryos) (Fig. 6B to 6E; Table 7).
  • a homozygous mutation in the PRRT2 gene in a patient is accompanied by a series of clinical symptoms such as various paroxysmal dyskinesia, benign familial infantile epilepsy, hemiplegia migraine, paroxysmal torticollis, paroxysmal ataxia Even mental retardation occurs.
  • Prrt2 knockout monkey was examined whether the Prrt2 knockout monkey can also exhibit these symptoms.
  • the present inventors observed an abnormality in motor function similar to paroxysmal dyskinesia: survival of monkey #11 by sgRNA-Prrt2-B+C+D was not apparently defective, and was born shortly after birth. During a period of time, it showed normal activity (Fig. 6H).
  • the monkey After 18 days, the monkey showed symptoms similar to paroxysmal exercise-induced dyskinesia, with abnormal movements of the limbs (torso bending and occasional tight-fitting fists). This action is not observed in wild-type monkeys of the same age, and these abnormal movements may be induced by sudden spontaneous movements (similar to PKD symptoms).
  • Monkey #11 At 61 days of age, Monkey #11 showed severe dyskinesia, including limb tremors and lower limb stiffness that prevented the monkey from walking and sitting down. At 105 days, Monkey #11 resumed walking ability after receiving lower limb training.
  • PKD-like symptoms disappeared, but under certain stresses, such as flipping or swinging tails, they can also cause abnormal limb movements and Paroxysmal nonkinesigenic dyskinesia (PNKD).
  • PNKD Paroxysmal nonkinesigenic dyskinesia
  • the inventors have also observed abnormal behaviors such as hand and foot clenching fists during touch and extreme sleepiness.
  • Monkey #11 developed a headache-like symptom that often hits the contents of the cage or the cage floor with his head, while clenching his fist and shaking his body. This headache-like symptom lasts for about a month. .
  • Monkey #11 also had a learning disability at the age of one, because it could not learn to use hands and eat food, so it was eaten by lowering the head and getting close to the food on the floor instead of using it. Many of these phenotypes are similar to those that exhibit abnormalities associated with human Prrt2.
  • #12 monkeys obtained by injecting a single sgRNA with the CRISPR/Cas9 system and #12 monkeys obtained by the C-CRISPR method were the same as chimeras, and during the observation period of up to 1 year, No dyskinesia was found.
  • the inventors In order to demonstrate the reliability of complete knockout in monkey embryos, the inventors also used the C-CRISPR method to target the aromatic hydrocarbon receptor nuclear transporter-like protein 1 (Arntl), which is a core component of the rhythm clock.
  • the inventors first designed four sgRNAs (sgRNA-Arntl-A, B, G and J) to target two functional PAS domains of Arntl (exons 8 and 13 respectively) and then in monkeys DNA shear efficiency was measured in the embryo (Fig. 12A).
  • sgRNA-Arntl-G and sgRNA-Arntl-J acted significantly on exon 13 (Fig. 12B).
  • the inventors designed an additional 7 sgRNAs (sgRNA-Arntl-C, D, E, F, H, I and K) for exon 13 (Fig. 12A).
  • the sgRNA cleavage efficiency was detected in the monkey cell COS-7 by the T7E1 assay, and the inventors found that, like the two sgRNAs (sgRNA-Arntl-G and J) previously tested on monkey embryos, five sgRNAs (sgRNA) -Arntl-D, E, H, I and K) have high DNA shear efficiency (37% to 60%) ( Figures 12C and 12D). Considering the distance between each sgRNA, the inventors selected sgRNA-Arntl-D, sgRNA-Arntl-G, and sgRNA-Arntl-J to co-inject into monkey embryos, and then perform genes in embryos of eight-cell stage.
  • Prrt2 contains large fragment exon deletions in approximately 50-80% of cells, with the remainder showing only Prrt2 point mutations (335N ⁇ 335A).
  • the inventors also performed whole genome sequencing (WGS) on the samples, and no off-target effects were found at the 20 sites most likely to be off target.
