Cas12a protein

Part Information

This part was synthesized using Cas12a DNA coding sequence from pY016 (pcDNA3.1-hLbCpf1) plasmid (Addgene plasmid # 69988) [1]

Biology and Usage

Cas12a is a programmable DNA endonuclease guided by a single guide RNA (gRNA) and can be used in Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) systems. RNA-guided DNA binding unleashes indiscriminate single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) cleavage activity by Cas12a that completely degrades ssDNA molecules [2]

• Targeting requires a gRNA complementary to the target site as well as a 5' TTTN protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) on the DNA strand opposite the target sequence.
• Cleavage occurs ~18 bases 3' of the PAM and leaves 5' overhanging ends.
• Cas12 a relies on a short (40-44 base) guide RNA to initiate DNA degradation.
• Cas12a is active from 16 to 48°C and maintains activity at lower temperatures than the Acidaminococcus orthologs, permitting editing in ectothermic organisms such as zebra fish and xenopus.
• High concentration liquid format can be used for microinjection, electroporation and lipofection [3]

There are 2 classes of effectors in the microbial adaptive immune system; class 1 effectors utilize multi-protein complexes, whereas class 2 effectors rely on single-component effector proteins such as the well-characterized Cas9. Cas12a (Cpf1) is a putative class 2 CRISPR effector which mediates robust DNA interference with features distinct from Cas9. Cpf1 is a single RNA-guided endonuclease lacking tracrRNA, and it utilizes a T-rich protospacer-adjacent motif. Moreover, Cpf1 cleaves DNA via a staggered DNA double-stranded break. We chose Lachnospiraceae bacterium ND2006 Cpf1 (LbCpf1) -along with Acidaminococcus- because it was found to have efficient genome-editing activity in human cells. [4]

Introduction

Cas12a recognizes and cleaves the target sequence of dsDNA depending on the target sequence and the T-rich PAM sequence. At this time, Cas12a exhibits collateral cleavage activity that indiscriminately cleaves the surrounding ssDNA. [1] CRISPR-AIOD assay, in which two different gRNAs are added, can improve the sensitivity. [2] The improvement of sensitivity by adding two different gRNAs has also been confirmed by an assay using Cas13a. [3]

Mechanism

Generally, in assays using a single gRNA, Cas is activated by the binding of a single Cas-gRNA complex to a single target DNA molecule. On the other hand, when two different gRNAs are introduced, two Cas-gRNA complexes bind to a single target DNA molecule, resulting in the activation of two Cas molecules. Since the number of Cas molecules activated per target molecule is doubled, sensitivity is expected to be improved [2], [3].

Design

In the Cas12a-based CRISPR-AIOD assay, two target sequences are first set up on the DNA to be detected as targets. Different from the usual gRNA design, these two sequences are not restricted by the PAM sequence, but they must be close to each other. Next, two types of gRNAs are designed based on the set sequences, and primers that can bind upstream and downstream of the two target sites are designed. Finally, by adding the designed two types of gRNAs and primers together with recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) reagent for target DNA, one-pot and highly sensitive detection becomes possible. As a result of introducing two types of gRNAs, it has been reported that a lower copy of DNA can be detected than when a single gRNA is added. [2]

　When designing a gRNA with Cas13a, two target sequences on the RNA to be detected are set in the same way. In contrast to Cas12a, which does not require PAM to be taken into account when designing, in Cas13a, both gRNAs to be designed are restricted by protospacer-flanking site (PFS). Studies have shown that simultaneous introduction of the two designed gRNAs and Cas13a is possible even with low-copy RNAs, and the amount of signal detected per time has been improved. [3]
