报告载体系统因构建快捷、改造简单、操作容易、经济有效,并且能通过介导筛选核酸酶阳性细胞富集基因组修饰的阳性细胞克隆,而成为特异性核酸酶活性检测的重要手段。基于非同源末端连接(Non-homologous end joining,NHEJ)修复机制的报告系统在引入DNA双链断裂(Double strand breaks,DSBs)后,经过优化最高也只有2/3的概率实现报告基因的修复;而单链退火(Single strand annealing,SSA)修复机制在引入DSBs后,理论上可以实现报告基因100%的修复,具有更高的灵敏度,有利于活性较低的特异性核酸酶活性的检测,为基因组修饰研究中特异性核酸酶活性的检测提供了有效的手段。本研究设计并构建了3套基于SSA修复机制的双荧光报告载体系统,并应用mRFP-eGFP系统检测了3对ZFNs的有效活性,其活性检测结果分别为8.9%、9.3%和5.0%,该研究为核酸酶活性的检测提供了有效的手段。
