Description

Multistage PCR reactive system and application thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to biology and detection field, particularly, the present invention relates to novel multistage PCR system and application thereof.
Background technology
PCR relates to by multiple circulations, the increase technology of certain polynucleotide sequence of index.Round pcr is well-known, and has been widely used.
Round pcr generally comprises following steps: sex change polynucleotide, are then annealed to pair of primers oligonucleotide at least on the polynucleotide of sex change (making the polynucleotide template hybridization of primer and sex change).After annealing steps, there is the enzyme of polymerase activity, use initial sex change polynucleotide as synthetic template, catalyze and synthesize a new polynucleotide chain that has mixed primer tasteless nucleotide.This series of steps (sex change, primer annealing and primer extension) forms a PCR circulation.
Along with the repetition of circulation, the volume index of new synthetic polynucleotide increases, and the new synthetic polynucleotide that early circulate because serving as reasons can be used as the synthetic template of follow-up circulation.
The sex change of DNA generally occurs in about 90-95 DEG C, and primer is generally annealed to the DNA of sex change at about 40-60 DEG C, as the step 1 of the primer of polymerase extension annealing, carries out at about 70-75 DEG C.Therefore, in PCR circulation, must change the temperature of reaction mixture (reaction system), in many cycle P CR experiment, will repeatedly change.
Round pcr has biological applications widely, for example comprise the contaminating microorganisms in DNA sequence analysis, probe generation, cloning nucleic acid sequences, site-directed mutagenesis, detection transgenation, judging viral infection, molecule " fingerprinting " and monitoring bio liquid and other sources.
Multiplex PCR (multiplex PCR, claim again Multiplex PCR or composite PCR), be to add two pairs or more primer in same PCR reaction system, amplify the PCR reaction of multiple nucleic acid fragments simultaneously, its reaction principle, reaction reagent and operating process are identical with general PCR.
Multiple PCR technique has been widely used in many fields of diagnostic nucleic acid, comprises gene knockout analysis, sudden change and polymorphism analysis, quantitative analysis and RNA detection etc.In infectious diseases field, multiple PCR technique has demonstrated its value, becomes identification virus, bacterium, fungi and parasitic effective ways.Utilize multi-PRC reaction one time, can detect simultaneously, identify multiple pathogens, in the differential diagnosis of clinical polyinfection, there is its unique advantage and very high practical value.
But in actual applications, conventional PCR reaction or multi-PRC reaction system no matter, pollutes if introduce the exogenous DNA of minute quantity in environment or operating process, just may occur false positive results.In order to prevent polluting, some experiments have to carry out at the operating equipment of high cleaning or operation room.
In PCR reaction process, improper being easy to of various test conditions control causes increasing unsuccessfully, reduces its sensitivity and specificity.
In addition, the sensitivity that existing round pcr can detect is also unsatisfactory, especially at the nucleic acid samples extremely low to content (as only contained the sample of 1-10 copy targeting sequence).Detect pathogenic agent (as HPV) in biopsy, postmortem sample time, because of the existence of irrelevant nucleic acid substances, detection sensitivity is difficult to improve always.
