摘要: The efficiency of the CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing system remains limited in many crops. Utilizing strong promoters to boost the expression level of Cas9 are commonly used to improve the editing efficiency. However, these strategies also increase the risk of off-target mutation. Here, we developed a new strategy to utilize intron-mediated enhancement (IME)-assisted 35S promoter to drive Cas9 and sgRNA in a single transcript, which escalates the editing efficiency by moderately enhancing the expression of both Cas9 and sgRNA. In addition, we developed another strategy to enrich cells highly expressing Cas9/sgRNA by co-expressing the developmental regulator gene GRF5, which has been proved to ameliorate the transformation efficiency, and the transgenic plants from these cells also exhibited enhanced editing efficiency. This system elevated the genome editing efficiency from 14-28% to 54-81% on three targets tested in lettuce (Lactuca sativa) without increasing the off-target editing efficiency. Thus, we established a new genome editing system with highly improved on-target editing efficiency and without obvious increasement in off-target effects, which can be used to characterize genes of interest in lettuce and other crops.
