Naturally, single guide RNA(sgRNA) is a small RNA which guide CRISRR-Cas protein family to target the exogenous sequence in prokaryotes, and assists them to defend phages. Nowadays, the artificial CRISPR-Cas9 system can achieve the modification casually in the gene level and is an excellent way to introduce mutation. The mechanism is shown in Fig1, the Cas9 nuclease is targeted to genomic DNA by a sgRNA consisting of a 20-nt guide sequence (blue) and a scaffold (red). The guide sequence pairs with the DNA target (blue bar on top strand), directly upstream of a require a 5’-NGG adjacent motif (PAM; pink). Cas9 mediates a double strand break in the upstream of the PAM (red triangle).(Ran, et al, Nat. Protoc., 2013)

In our project, we design the gRNA for porcupine O-acyltransferase (PORCN), an essential enzyme to function in the Wnt3A protein secretion. Therefore, if we transfect the gRNA of PORCN into cells, we can inhibit the donor cell to secret the Wnt3A protein normally. And we have integrated this gRNA together with its scaffold into the backbone pSB1C3 to get a new part.(Fig2)

Usage and Biology

Naturally, single guide RNA(sgRNA) is a small RNA which guides CRISRR-Cas protein family to target the exogenous sequence in prokaryotes, and assists them to defend phages. Nowadays, the artificial CRISPR-Cas9 system can achieve the modification casually in gene level and is an excellent way to introduce mutation. The mechanism is shown in Fig1, the Cas9 nuclease is targeted to genomic DNA by a sgRNA consisting of a 20-nt guide sequence (blue) and a scaffold (red). The guide sequence pairs with the DNA target (blue bar on top strand), directly upstream of a require a 5’-NGG adjacent motif (PAM; pink). Cas9 mediates a double strand break in the upstream of the PAM (red triangle).(Ran, et al, Nat. Protoc,, 2013)

In our project, we design a gRNA for porcupine O-acyltransferase (PORCN), an essential enzyme to function in the Wnt3A protein secretion. Therefore, if we transfect the gRNA of PORCN into cells, we can inhibit the donor cell to secret the Wnt3A protein normally. And we have integrated this gRNA together with its scaffold into the backbone pSB1C3 to get a new part.(Fig2)
