CRISPR/Cas9 Editing of the Bacillus subtilis Genome

[Abstract]  A fundamental procedure for most modern biologists is the genetic manipulation of the organism under study. Although many different methods for editing bacterial genomes have been used in laboratories for decades, the adaptation of CRISPR/Cas9 technology to bacterial genetics has allowed researchers to manipulate bacterial genomes with unparalleled facility. CRISPR/Cas9 has allowed for genome edits to be more precise, while also increasing the efficiency of transferring mutations into a variety of genetic backgrounds. As a result, the advantages are realized in tractable organisms and organisms that have been refractory to genetic manipulation. Here, we describe our method for editing the genome of the bacterium Bacillus subtilis. Our method is highly efficient, resulting in ... [摘要]  大多数现代生物学家的基本过程是研究生物体的遗传操作。尽管许多不同的方法用于编辑细菌基因组已经在实验室中使用了数十年,但CRISPR / Cas9技术对细菌遗传学的适应使得研究人员能够以无与伦比的设施来操纵细菌基因组。 CRISPR / Cas9允许基因组编辑更精确,同时也提高将突变转移到各种遗传背景的效率。因此,在遗传操作难以处理的易处理生物和生物体中实现了这些优点。在这里,我们描述了我们编辑枯草芽孢杆菌细菌基因组的方法。我们的方法是高效的,导致精确,无标记的突变。此外,在产生编辑质粒之后,可以将突变快速导入几个遗传背景,大大增加可进行遗传分析的速度。

枯草芽孢杆菌是高度易处理的革兰氏阳性菌。遗传研究适用于使用多种载体通过同源重组快速有效地引入突变。尽管有许多不同的方法来引入B突变。 subtilis,每种方法都有其局限性。一种简单而简单的方法,用于在B中进行突变。枯草芽孢杆菌是基因破坏,其中将质粒整合到感兴趣的基因内(Vagner等人,1998)。主要的局限性包括:1)扰乱操纵子的极地作用的潜力; 2)引进和保留外来DNA; 3)一旦使用抗生素耐药性盒,如果在其他突变的背景下研究给定的突变,则研究者必须使用不同的盒;和4)该方法限于靶向整个基因,并且不能产生更精确的点突变。 ...

[Abstract]  Bacterial pathogenicity islands and other contiguous operons can be difficult to clone using conventional methods due to their large size. Here we describe a robust 3-step method to transfer large defined fragments of DNA from virulence plasmids or cosmids onto smaller autonomously replicating plasmids or directly into defined sites in the bacterial chromosome that incorporates endogenous yeast and λ Red homologous recombination systems. This methodology has been successfully used to isolate and integrate at least 31 kb of contiguous DNA and can be readily adapted for the recombineering of E. coli and its close relatives. [摘要]  由于其大尺寸,细菌致病性岛和其它连续操纵子可能难以使用常规方法克隆。在这里我们描述了一个强大的3步法从毒力质粒或粘粒转移大型定义的片段到更小的自主复制质粒或直接到细胞染色体,并入内源性酵母和λ红色同源重组系统的定义网站。该方法已经成功地用于分离和整合至少31kb的连续DNA,并且可以容易地适应于E的重组。大肠杆菌及其近亲。

[背景] 分离和繁殖大片DNA的能力大大扩展了基因网络和操纵子的研究。然而,用于该目的的传统使用的工程质粒,例如细菌人工染色体(BAC),虽然极其有用,但是受到DNA稳定性,拷贝数和复杂装配要求的问题的限制。或者,将构建体直接并入细菌染色体中通过减少由于存在多个基因拷贝引起的基因表达的变化以及确保基因的稳定维持而提供了优点,同时还避免了对抗生素选择的需要。这里描述的方法最初被设计为捕获和转移编码Shigella flexneri 3型分泌系统的31kb DNA操纵子到大肠杆菌染色体上(Reeves ...
