Nucleic acid-guided nucleases
Disclosed herein are nucleic acid-guided nucleases, guide nucleic acids, and targetable nuclease systems, and methods of use. Disclosed herein are engineered non-naturally occurring nucleic acid-guided nucleases, guide nucleic acids, and targetable nuclease systems, and methods of use. Targetable nuclease systems can be used to edit genetic targets, including recursive genetic engineering and trackable genetic engineering methods.
1. A targetable nuclease system comprising:
(a) a nucleic acid-guided nuclease obtained from a Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens organism; and
(b) a heterologous engineered guide nucleic acid for complexing with the Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens nucleic acid-guided nuclease and hybridizing to a eukaryotic target sequence, wherein the heterologous engineered guide nucleic acid comprises a sequence from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 88, SEQ ID NO: 93, and SEQ ID NO: 94.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the nucleic acid-guided nuclease obtained from the Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens recognizes a TTTN PAM.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the nucleic acid-guided nuclease obtained from the Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens has an editing efficiency of between 75% to 100% as measured by dividing the number of edited cells by the total number of recovered cells.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the nucleic acid-guided nuclease obtained from the Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens comprises the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2.
5. The system of claim 4 , wherein the nucleic acid-guided nuclease obtained from the Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens does not form a functional complex with an endogenous guide from the Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens organism.
6. The system of claim 1 , further comprising an editing cassette.
7. A targetable nuclease system comprising:
(a) a nucleic acid-guided nuclease obtained from a Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens organism; and
(b) an editing cassette, wherein said editing cassette comprises a polynucleotide encoding an editing sequence and a polynucleotide encoding a heterologous engineered guide nucleic acid for complexing with the Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens nucleic acid-guided nuclease, wherein the heterologous engineered guide nucleic acid comprises a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO: 88, SEQ ID NO: 93, and SEQ ID NO: 94, and wherein the editing sequence comprise a template for homologous recombination.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the nucleic acid-guided nuclease obtained from the Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens recognizes a TTTN sequence.
9. The system of claim 7 , wherein the nucleic acid-guided nuclease obtained from the Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens has an editing efficiency of between 75% to 100% as measured by dividing the number of edited cells by the total number of recovered cells.
10. The system of claim 7 , wherein the nucleic acid-guided nuclease obtained from the Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens comprises the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the nucleic acid-guided nuclease obtained from the Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens does not form a functional complex with an endogenous guide from the Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens organism.
12. The system of claim 7 , wherein the editing cassette is more than 500 nucleotides in length.
13. The system of claim 7 , wherein said targetable nuclease system causes a double-strand break on a target region.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the target region is within a eukaryotic cell.
15. The system of claim 14 , wherein the target region is within a mammalian cell.
