免疫逃逸DNA供体和重组酶赋能千碱基级写入,这一成果由马萨诸塞州总医院Benjamin P. Kleinstiver团队经过不懈努力而取得。这一研究成果于2026年3月11日发表在国际顶尖学术期刊《自然》上。

通过利用整合的原核病毒主题和可移动遗传元件的机制,课题组人员证明重组酶与免疫回避的环状单链DNA分子兼容,这些分子最好带有重建重组酶识别序列的部分双链区。这种方法,课题组人员将其称为通过核酸合成的大长度模板添加(INSTALL)进行整合的方法,与多种蛋白质和RNA引导的重组酶兼容,用于高保真的千碱基级人类基因组编写。与脂质纳米颗粒递送的dsDNA分子相比,INSTALL通过显著提高耐受性和扩大给药范围,提高重组酶介导的整合效率,支持体内系统性非病毒DNA递送,从而将原代人细胞和小鼠的先天免疫反应降至最低。INSTALL通过将免疫隐身核酸与重组酶协同作用,在没有病毒载体的情况下实现千碱基级整合策略,从而克服了DNA传递和整合方法的基本挑战。

据介绍,利用重组酶将千碱基级DNA序列插入哺乳动物基因组的基因组编辑技术通常需要大双链DNA(dsDNA)供体。然而,dsDNA分子引起有问题和有毒的先天免疫反应,限制了整合效率,并且通常限制了对体外或免疫缺陷环境的适用性。

Abstract: Genome-editing technologies that use recombinases to insert kilobase-scale DNA sequences into mammalian genomes canonically require large double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) donors1,2. However, dsDNA molecules evoke problematic and toxic innate immune responses, limiting integration efficiencies and generally constraining applicability to ex vivo or immune-deficient contexts. By harnessing mechanisms of integrative prokaryotic viruses and mobile genetic elements, here we demonstrate that recombinases are compatible with immune evasive circular single-stranded DNA molecules optimally bearing a partial-duplex region that reconstitutes the recombinase recognition sequence. This approach, which we term integration through nucleus-synthesized template addition of large lengths (INSTALL), is compatible with diverse protein and RNA-guided recombinases for high-fidelity kilobase-scale human genome writing. INSTALL minimizes innate immune responses in primary human cells and in mice, improving recombinase-mediated integration efficiencies and supporting systemic in vivo non-viral DNA delivery by substantially increasing tolerability and broadening the dosing range compared with lipid nanoparticle-delivered dsDNA molecules. Together, INSTALL overcomes fundamental challenges for DNA delivery and integration methods by synergizing immune-stealth nucleic acids with recombinases to enable kilobase-scale integration strategies without viral vectors.
