Title:
ARGONAUTE PROTEIN MUTANT AND USE THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/169945
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a mutant of Argonaute protein lacking DNA cleavage activity but having DNA binding activity, the mutation of the mutant being located in the PIWI domain. The present invention also relates to use based on the protein mutant, especially in enrichment of target DNA and construction of sequencing libraries. Therefore, the present invention also relates to a method for enrichment of a target DNA, comprising the following steps: (a) designing a guide sequence for a specific sequence in a target DNA; (b) binding the mutant, the guide sequence and the target DNA according to the present invention to obtain a mutant-guide sequence-target DNA ternary complex; (c) capturing the mutant-guide sequence-target DNA ternary complex by means of a capture medium; and (d) isolating the target DNA from the captured mutant-guide sequence-target DNA ternary complex to obtain an enriched target DNA.
