| |
− | resources are not sustainably exploited. Global strategies
| |
− | to increase food productivity and quality need to be
| |
− | concealed with a local perspective, providing breeders with
| |
− | the necessary technology to improve varieties. The aim of
| |
− | HYPE-IT is to decrease current technological barriers for
| |
− | breeding local crops using precision genome engineering,
| |
− | easing the gene editing process using SynBio-inspired
| |
− | simplified CRISPR/Cas9 tools. HYPE-IT brings along a
| |
− | software tool that associates crop traits with specific
| |
− | gene targets and designs optimal gRNAs for those targets.
| |
− | HYPE-IT also incorporates a modular gene circuit that
| |
− | serves as an in vivo gRNA testing system, ensuring
| |
− | appropriate gRNA choice even when no precise sequence
| |
− | information of local varieties is available. We aim to
| |
− | develop a split-Cas9 system based on viral vectors to
| |
− | efficiently deliver the editing machinery into the plant,
| |
− | and to create an affordable Labcase with the necessary
| |
− | laboratory equipment for HYPE-IT.</p>

| |
− | Software</h2>
| |
− | <p class="expandp">We have created a genomic
| |
− | data processing software. This tool allows the
| |
− | user to choose the type of plant and phenotypic
| |
− | variation of interest. The software will find
| |
− | the gene associated with that phenotype, and
| |
− | then it will give as output the optimal guide
| |
− | RNA that will be used with Cas9 for knock-out
| |
− | the gene. Open source will be the main
| |
− | philosophy of this software, so anyone can
| |
− | contribute with new parameters or new
| |
− | phenotype-gene links.</p>

| |
− | <p>The plant breeder could test the obtained guide
| |
− | RNA directly in his plant, but it would take a long
| |
− | time just to check if it works or not. To avoid
| |
− | this, we have designed a gRNA Testing System which
| |
− | does this in a fast and simple way. Using Nicotiana
| |
− | benthamiana, Agrobacterium infection system, a
| |
− | short sequence of the gene of his plant and a
| |
− | luciferase assay, the users will surely know if the
| |
− | guide RNA works on his own variety. This system
| |
− | works as a switch that will show luciferase if the
| |
− | gene has been knocked-out.</p>

| |
− | <p>As a vehicle to genetically modify the plant,
| |
− | the Agrobacterium infection system is inefficient,
| |
− | long and difficult. Thus, we decide to use a viral
| |
− | system to enhance plant infection. Since the viral
| |
− | vectors are small, the Cas9 and CPF1 endonuclease -
| |
− | necessary for editing - need to be splitted in two
| |
− | parts. To reassemble them inside the plant cells,
| |
