Title:
CHLOROPLAST GENOME EDITING METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/103686
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a chloroplast genome editing method. In particular, provided are a nucleic acid construct, a vector, or a vector combination for plant genome site-specific editing based on a CRISPR technology, and a plant genome site-specific editing method. The nucleic acid construct comprises a nucleic acid construct of formula I and/or a nucleic acid construct of formula II, the nucleic acid construct of formula I comprises a chloroplast targeting signal peptide-nuclease expression cassette, and the nucleic acid construct of formula II comprises an ncRNA-sgRNA expression cassette. With this method, a nuclease and a corresponding sgRNA can be introduced into a chloroplast, so that gene knockout or homologous recombination and targeted insertion of a foreign segment can be carried out simply and efficiently at a predetermined chloroplast genomic site. This method can be used to improve a trait of a crop from the chloroplast genome level.
