The SpRY Cas9 variant release the PAM sequence constraint for genome editing in the model plant Physcomitrium patens.
Transgenic Research 2024 April 5
Genome editing via CRISPR/Cas has enabled targeted genetic modifications in various species, including plants. The requirement for specific protospacer-adjacent motifs (PAMs) near the target gene, as seen with Cas nucleases like SpCas9, limits its application. PAMless SpCas9 variants, designed with a relaxed PAM requirement, have widened targeting options. However, these so-call PAMless SpCas9 still show variation of editing efficiency depending on the PAM and their efficiency lags behind the native SpCas9. Here we assess the potential of a PAMless SpCas9 variant for genome editing in the model plant Physcomitrium patens. For this purpose, we developed a SpRYCas9i variant, where expression was optimized, and tested its editing efficiency using the APT as a reporter gene. We show that the near PAMless SpRYCas9i effectively recognizes specific PAMs in P. patens that are not or poorly recognized by the native SpCas9. Pattern of mutations found using the SpRYCas9i are similar to the ones found with the SpCas9 and we could not detect off-target activity for the sgRNAs tested in this study. These findings contribute to advancing versatile genome editing techniques in plants.
