Description

PCR buffer composition for enhancing DNA polymerase activity with increased gene mutation specificity
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a PCR buffer composition for enhancing DNA polymerase activity with increased gene mutation specificity and use thereof, and more particularly, to a PCR buffer composition for enhancing DNA polymerase activity with increased gene mutation specificity by inducing mutation at a specific amino acid position, a PCR kit for detecting gene mutation or SNP comprising the PCR buffer composition and/or DNA polymerase with increased gene mutation specificity, and a detection method for detecting at least one gene mutation or SNP in vitro (in vitro) from one or more templates using the kit.
Background
Since the first human genome sequence was discovered, researchers have focused on exploring genetic differences between individuals such as single nucleotide mutations (SNPs). It has become increasingly clear that single nucleotide mutations in the genome are associated with different resistance or predisposition to various diseases, and are therefore a major concern. Knowledge of future medically relevant nucleotide variations may be applied to treatment of the genetic supply of an individual and may prevent drug treatment that is ineffective or causes side effects (Shi, expert Rev. Mol. Diagn.1,363-365 (2001)). The development of time and cost efficient techniques for identifying nucleotide variations will lead to further advances in pharmacogenetics.
SNPs account for major genetic variation in the human genome, and can induce more than 90% of inter-individual variation. (Kwok, annu. Rev. Genomics Hum, genet.2,235-258 (2001); kwok and Chen, curr. Issues mol. Biol.5,43-60 (2003); twyman and Primrose, pharmacogenermics 4,67-79 (2003)). In order to detect other nucleic acid variations such as these genetic variations and mutations, various methods can be used. For example, identification of variants of a target nucleic acid can be achieved by hybridizing a nucleic acid sample to be analyzed with a hybridization primer specific for the sequence variant under appropriate hybridization conditions (Guo et al, nat. Biotechnol.15,331-335 (1997)).
However, it has been found that this hybridization method is not satisfactory in clinical practice particularly in terms of sensitivity required for measurement. Thus, PCR has been widely used in diagnostic detection methods for mutation detection in molecular biology, SNP and other allelic sequence variants (Saiki et al, science 239, 487-490 (1988)), in which a target nucleic acid to be detected is amplified by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) before hybridization in consideration of the presence of the variant. For the hybridization primer used in such an assay, a single-stranded oligonucleotide is generally used. Specific examples of modifications of the assay include the use of fluorescent hybridization probes (Livak, genet.73-5 2017-07-12Anal.14,143-149 (1999)). In general, attempts have been made to automate the method of determining SNPs and other sequence variations (Gut, hum. Mutat.17,475-492 (2001)).
The sequence variation specific hybridization strategy known in the art is provided by so-called gene mutation specific amplification. In this detection method, variation-specific amplification primers are already used during amplification, usually primers having at their 3' -end so-called differential terminal nucleotide residues, which are complementary to only one specific variation of the target nucleic acid to be detected. In this method, nucleotide variants are measured as the presence or absence of DNA products after amplification by PCR. The principle of gene mutation specific amplification is based on the formation of canonical (canonical) or atypical primer-template complexes at the ends of gene mutation specific amplification primers. At the precisely paired 3' primer ends, amplification by DNA polymerase occurs, while extension is inhibited at the mismatched primer ends.
For example, U.S. Pat. No.5,595,890 discloses gene mutation-specific amplification methods and uses thereof, such as disclosing methods of use for detecting clinically relevant point mutations (point mutations) in k-ras tumor genes. In addition, U.S. Pat. No.5,521,301 discloses an allele-specific amplification method for genotyping of ABO blood group system. In contrast, U.S. Pat. No.5,639,611 discloses the use of allele-specific amplification in connection with detecting point mutations that cause sickle cell anemia. However, gene mutation-specific amplification or allele-specific amplification has the problem of low selectivity, thus requiring more complex, time and cost intensive optimization steps.
The methods for detecting sequence variations, polymorphisms and focusing on point mutations are particularly desirable for gene-specific amplification (or gene mutation-specific amplification) when the sequence variation to be detected is insufficient compared to the dominant variation of the same nucleic acid fragment (or the same gene).
This occurs, for example, when sporadic tumor cells are detected in body fluids such as blood, serum or plasma by gene mutation specific amplification (U.S. Pat. No.5,496,699). For this purpose, DNA is first isolated from a body fluid such as blood, serum or plasma, and the DNA consists of insufficient sporadic tumor cells and an excess of non-proliferating cells. Thus, important mutations in tumor DNA in the k-ras gene should be detected from multiple replications in the presence of excess wild-type DNA.
All methods disclosed in the prior art for gene mutation specific amplification, despite the use of 3' -differential nucleotide residues, have the disadvantage that even if the target nucleic acid does not completely match the sequence variant to be detected, a lower level of primer extension takes place in the presence of a suitable DNA polymerase. In particular, when a particular sequence variant is detected by an excess of background nucleic acid comprising another sequence variant, a false positive result results. Another disadvantage of the known method is the need to use 3' -terminal differential oligonucleotide residues. The disadvantages of this PCR-based approach are mainly due to the inadequacy of the polymerase used in the method for sufficiently discriminating between mismatched bases. Therefore, it has not been possible to directly obtain clear information on the presence or absence of a mutation by PCR. To date, additional time and cost intensive purification and assay methods are required to definitively diagnose mutations. Therefore, new methods for improving the selectivity of gene mutation-specific or allele-specific PCR amplification will have a great impact on the reliability and robustness of direct gene mutation or SNP analysis by PCR.
Therefore, there is a continuing need to investigate DNA polymerases with increased gene mutation specificity and optimal reaction buffers for mixing various substances that allow the DNA polymerases to perform their functions.
The present inventors have made an effort to develop a novel DNA polymerase capable of improving gene mutation-specific PCR amplification selectivity and a reaction buffer for improving the activity thereof, and as a result, confirmed that gene mutation specificity is significantly increased when mutation is induced to amino acid residues at specific positions of Taq polymerase, and KCl, (NH) in a PCR buffer composition is controlled 4 ) 2 SO 4 And/or TMAC (tetramethylammonium chloride), the activity of the DNA polymerase having increased gene mutation specificity is enhanced, thereby completing the present invention.

In the DNA polymerase of the present invention, the term "mutant" refers to a recombinant polypeptide comprising one or more amino acid substitutions relative to a naturally occurring or unmodified DNA polymerase.
The term "thermostable polymerase" (referring to an enzyme that is thermostable) refers to a polymerase that is sufficiently heat resistant, retains sufficient activity to effect a subsequent polynucleotide extension reaction, and does not irreversibly denature (inactivate) upon warming during the time required to effect denaturation of double-stranded nucleic acids. As used herein, it applies to cycling temperatures in reactions such as PCR. Irreversible denaturation here means a complete loss of permanent enzyme activity. For thermostable polymerases, enzymatic activity refers to catalyzing the combination of nucleotides in a suitable manner to form a complementary polynucleotide extension product on a template nucleic acid strand. Thermophilic bacteria-derived thermostable DNA polymerases include, for example: DNA polymerases from Thermotoga maritima (Thermotoga maritime), thermus aquaticus (Thermus aquaticus), thermus thermophilus (Thermus thermophilus), thermus flavus (Thermus flavus), thermus filiformis (Thermus filiformis), thermus species Sps17, thermus species Z05, thermus firmus (Thermus caldophilus), bacillus caldotena (Bacillus caldotenax), thermopongata (Thermotoga neapolia), and Thermotoga africana (Thermosipho africana).

The term "vector" is a DNA molecule such as a plasmid, phage, artificial chromosome, etc., which is capable of being replicated and which is capable of delivering foreign DNA to recipient cells, e.g., a gene. "plasmid", "vector" or "plasmid vector" are used interchangeably herein.
The term "nucleotide" refers to a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or ribonucleic acid (RNA) in single strand or double strand form, and may include analogs of natural nucleotides, unless otherwise specified.
The term "nucleic acid" or "polynucleotide" refers to a polymer of DNA or RNA, or analogs thereof. The nucleic acid may be, for example, a chromosome or chromosome fragment, a vector (e.g., an expression vector), an expression cassette, a naked DNA or RNA polymer, a Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) product, an oligonucleotide, a probe or primer, or comprise such. The nucleic acid may be, for example, single-stranded, double-stranded, or triple-stranded, but is not limited to any particular length. Unless otherwise indicated, a particular nucleic acid sequence includes, or can encode, a complementary sequence in addition to any sequence specified.
The term "primer" refers to a polynucleotide that can serve as a point of initiation of nucleic acid synthesis in the direction of the template when the polynucleotide is under conditions of initiation of extension. Primers can also be used in a variety of other oligonucleotide-mediated synthesis processes, including de novo synthesis of RNA and as a promoter for in vitro transcription-related processes. The primer is typically a single-stranded oligonucleotide (e.g., an oligodeoxyribonucleotide). Suitable lengths for primers are generally in the range of 6 to 40 nucleotides, more typically 15 to 35 nucleotides in length and depending on the intended use. Short primer molecules generally require lower temperatures to form sufficiently stable hybridization complexes with the template. The primer need not reflect the correct sequence of the template, but the primer must be sufficiently complementary to hybridize to the template to be extended.In particular embodiments, the term "primer pair" refers to a primer set comprising a 5 'sense primer that hybridizes complementarily to the 5' end of the nucleic acid sequence to be amplified, and a 3 '-antisense primer that hybridizes to the 3' end of the sequence to be amplified. If necessary, the primers can be labeled by incorporating a label that is detectable by spectroscopic, photochemical, biochemical, immunochemical, or chemical means. For example, useful markers include: 32 p, fluorescent dyes, electron density reagents, enzymes (typically used in ELISA assays), biotin or haptens, and proteins for which antisera or monoclonal antibodies may be used.
The term "5 '-nucleic acid hydrolase (nuclease) probe" refers to an oligonucleotide comprising at least one luminescent label moiety for performing a 5' -nucleic acid hydrolase reaction to detect a target nucleic acid. In some embodiments, for example, a 5' -nucleolytic enzyme probe comprises only a single luminescent moiety (e.g., a fluorescent dye, etc.). In certain embodiments, the 5' -nucleolytic enzyme probe comprises a self-complementary region such that the probe can form a hairpin structure under selected conditions. In some embodiments, the 5' -nucleic acid hydrolase probe comprises two or more labeled moieties, one of the two labels is separated or cleaved from the oligonucleotide, and the radiation intensity is increased and released. In certain embodiments, the 5' -nucleolytic enzyme probe is labeled with two different fluorescent dyes, e.g., a 5' -terminal reporter dye and a 3' -terminal quencher dye or moiety. In some embodiments, the 5' -nuclease probe is further labeled on the end or labeled at one or more positions other than the end. When the probe is intact, energy transfer typically occurs between the two fluorescent materials such that the fluorescent emission from the reporter dye is quenched by more than a certain fraction. During the extension step of the polymerase chain reaction, for example, the 5' -nucleolytic enzyme probe bound to the template nucleic acid has an activity such that the fluorescent emission of the reporter dye is no longer quenched, e.g., by the 5' to 3' -nucleolytic enzyme activity of Taq polymerase or other polymerases. In some embodiments, the 5 '-nucleolytic enzyme probe can be labeled with two or more different reporter dyes and 3' -terminal quencher dyes or moieties.
The term "FRET "or" fluorescence resonance energy transfer "or" forest resonance energy transfer "refers to the energy transfer between two or more chromophores, a donor chromophore and an acceptor chromophore (referred to as a quencher). The donor is typically excited by emitting light of the appropriate wavelength to transfer energy to the acceptor. The receptor typically re-emits the moving energy in the form of re-emission of light at a different wavelength. When the acceptor is a "dark" quencher, the energy of movement is dispersed in a form other than light. Whether a particular fluorophore acts as a donor or acceptor depends on the nature of the FRET pair other members. Commonly used donor-acceptor pairs include FAM-TAMRA pairs. Common quenchers are DABCYL and TAMRA. Commonly used dark quenchers include: black hole quench TM (BHQ),(Biosearch Technologies,Inc.,Novato,Cal.),Iowa Black TM (Integrated DNA Tech.,Inc.,Coralville,Iowa),

The terms "conventional" or "natural" when referring to a nucleobase, nucleoside triphosphate or nucleotide mean that it occurs naturally in the polynucleotide (i.e., dATP, dGTP, dCTP, dTTP for DNA) and dITP and 7-deaza-dGTP are often used in place of dGTP and may be used in place of dATP in vitro DNA synthesis reactions such as sequencing.
The terms "unconventional" or "modified," when referring to a nucleic acid base, nucleoside, or nucleotide, includes modifications, derivatives, or analogs of the conventional bases, nucleosides, or nucleotides that occur naturally in the particular polynucleotide. In contrast to conventional dNTPs, a particular unconventional nucleotide is modified at the 2' position of the ribose. Thus, even if the naturally occurring nucleotide of an RNA is a ribonucleotide (i.e., ATP, GTP, CTPUTP, collectively rNTP), the nucleotide has a hydroxyl group at the 2' position of the sugar, and the dNTP is relatively absent, and thus, as used herein, a ribonucleotide is an unconventional nucleotide that serves as a substrate for DNA polymerase. As used herein, unconventional nucleotides include, but are not limited to, compounds that function as terminators for nucleic acid sequencing. Exemplary terminalStopple compounds include, but are not limited to, compounds having a 2',3' -dideoxy structure, known as dideoxynucleoside triphosphates. The dideoxynucleoside triphosphates ddATP, ddTTP, ddCTP and ddGTP, collectively referred to as ddNTPs. Other examples of terminator compounds include 2' -PO of ribonucleotides 4 And the like. Other unconventional nucleotides include, but are not limited to, thiodNTPs ([ [ alpha ] ])]-S]dNTP)、5'-[α]-boron (borano) -dNTP, [ alpha ]]-methyl-phosphonic acid dNTP, ribonucleoside triphosphate (rNTP). Unconventional bases may be replaced by radioisotopes such as 32 P、 33 P or 35 S; fluorescence labeling; a chemiluminescent label; a bioluminescent marker; hapten labels such as biotin; or an enzymatic label such as streptavidin or avidin. Fluorescent labels may include negatively charged dyes such as dyes of the fluorescein family, or neutrally charged dyes such as dyes of the rhodamine family, or positively charged dyes such as the cyanine family. The fluorescein family of dyes include, for example, FAM, HEX, TET, JOE, NAN, and ZOE. Dyes of the rhodamine family include Texas Red, ROX, R110, R6G, and TAMRA. Various dyes or nucleotides labeled with FAM, HEX, TET, JOE, NAN, ZOE, ROX, R110, R6G, texas Red, and TAMRA are marketed by Perkin-Elmer (Boston, mass.), applied Biosystems (Foster, calif.), invitrogen/Molecular Probes (Uygur., oreg.). Cyanine family dyes, including Cy2, cy3, cy5, and Cy7, are marketed by GE Healthcare UK Limited (Amersham Place, little Chalfount, white gold Hanshire, england).
The term "mismatch discrimination" refers to the biocatalytic (e.g., polymerase, ligase, etc.) ability to distinguish perfectly complementary sequences from mismatch-containing sequences when a nucleic acid (e.g., a primer or other oligonucleotide) is extended in a template-dependent manner by attaching (e.g., covalently) one or more nucleotides to the nucleic acid. The term "mismatch discrimination" refers to the biocatalytic ability of an extended nucleic acid (e.g., a primer or other oligonucleotide) to distinguish between fully complementary sequences from a mismatch-containing (about complementary) sequence that is mismatched at the 3' end of the nucleic acid as compared to the template to which the nucleic acid hybridizes. In some embodiments, the extended nucleic acid comprises a mismatch at the 3' end to a fully complementary sequence. In some embodiments, the extended nucleic acid comprises a mismatch at the second (N-1) 3' -position and/or N-2 position from the terminus to the fully complementary sequence.
Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art.
The present invention relates to a PCR buffer composition for DNA polymerase activity enhancement with increased gene mutation specificity, the composition comprising 25 to 100mM KCI;1 to 15mM of (NH) 4 ) 2 SO 4 (ii) a The final pH was 8.0 to 9.0.
The polymerase used in the PCR should use an optimal reaction buffer in which various substances are mixed in order to perform its function. The reaction buffer usually contains a factor that stabilizes the pH, a metal ion as a cofactor (cofactor) and a stabilizing component that prevents denaturation of the polymerase.
The KCl can be used as an essential factor for stabilizing the enzyme, and helps the primer pair with the target DNA (pairing). In the present invention, the optimum concentration is determined by adjusting the concentration of KCl in the reaction buffer to confirm a high cation concentration that maximally delays amplification caused by mismatch while not decreasing amplification efficiency caused by match.
The mismatched amplification delay effect according to the change of KCl concentration in the reaction buffer was confirmed using E507K, E507K/R536K, E507K/R660V Taq polymerase, and E507K/R536K/R660V Taq polymerase, respectively, and as a result, the mismatched amplification delay effect was excellent even when KCl was not present in the reaction buffer for E507K/R536K/R660V Taq polymerase, as shown in FIG. 9; at 50mM for E507K/R536 and E507K/R660V; as a control E507K, the mismatch amplification delaying effect was excellent at 100 mM. As a result, E507K/R536K/R660V Taq polymerase was the lowest for the threshold KCl concentration, and E507K/R536K and E507K/R660V were lower than E507K.
To further deduce the appropriate KCI concentration, (NH) in reaction buffer was added using E507K/R536K/R660V Taq polymerase 4 ) 2 SO 4 The concentration was fixed at a certain value and amplification was performed with various concentrations of KCl. Confirmation of the results of amplification products by electrophoresisAs shown in FIG. 10, it was confirmed that the appropriate KCI concentration was 75mM.
Therefore, the KCl concentration in the buffer composition for PCR reaction of the present invention may be 25 to 100mM, preferably 60 to 90mM, more preferably 70 to 80mM, most preferably 75mM.
When the concentration of KCl is less than 25mM, there is no effect on the amplification of the general target, but the difference between the amplification by the matched primer and the amplification by the mismatched primer can be reduced, and when the concentration is more than 100mM, there is a problem that the amplification efficiency of the general target is reduced.
(NH) for PCR reaction buffer composition 4 ) 2 SO 4 Is a necessary cofactor for enzymatic activity, and is used with Tris to increase the activity of the polymerase. In one embodiment of the present invention, based on the above-mentioned derivation, the KCl concentration in the reaction buffer was fixed at 75mM and (NH) 4 ) 2 SO 4 Was varied from 2.5mM to 25mM to confirm appropriateness of (NH) 4 ) 2 SO 4 The concentration of (c).
The results are shown in FIG. 11, at 2.5mM to 15mM (NH) 4 ) 2 SO 4 At a concentration of (D), the amplification product was confirmed to be appropriate (NH) 4 ) 2 SO 4 The concentration of (2) is 5mM.
Further on (NH) 4 ) 2 SO 4 As shown in FIG. 12, when the concentration of (C) was close to 5mM (2.5 mM, 5mM, 10mM, respectively), AS-qPCR was carried out, and the difference in Ct value was the largest at 10mM, but the Ct value was slightly delayed in the matched amplification and the peak was downward-tilted, so that the optimum (NH) was determined 4 ) 2 SO 4 Is 5mM.
Therefore, (NH) in the buffer composition for PCR reaction of the present invention 4 ) 2 SO 4 The concentration of (b) may be 1 to 15mM, preferably 2.5 to 8mM, more preferably 4 to 6mM, most preferably 5mM.
When (NH) 4 ) 2 SO 4 Concentrations below 1mM had no effect on amplification of the general target, but resulted in reduced differences between amplification with matched primers and amplification with mismatched primers, and concentrations above 1mMAt 15mM, the amplification efficiency of the general target is lowered.
Thus, an optimal PCR buffer composition of the invention may comprise 70 to 80mM KCl;4 to 6mM of (NH) 4 ) 2 SO 4 (ii) a The final pH was 8.0 to 9.0.
The PCR buffer composition of the present invention may further comprise 5 to 80mM TMAC (Tetra methyl ammonium chloride).
TMAC is commonly used to reduce amplification due to mismatches or to increase stringency of hybridization reactions (stringency). In one embodiment of the present invention, the KCl concentration in the reaction buffer is fixed at 75mM, (NH) 4 ) 2 SO 4 Was fixed at 5mM, and the TMAC concentration was varied from 0mM to 80mM to confirm the appropriate TMAC concentration.
As a result, as shown in FIG. 13, it was confirmed that the TMAC concentration was appropriate and 70mM for E507K/R536K Taq polymerase; 25mM for E507K/R536K/R660V Taq polymerase. Further TMAC concentration was fixed at 25mM, (NH) 4 ) 2 SO 4 The KCl concentration was adjusted to 20, 40, 60 and 80mM and amplification was performed while fixing the concentration of (2.5 mM), and it was confirmed that the appropriate KCl concentration was 60mM for SNPs rs1015362 and rs4911414, as shown in FIG. 14.
When the concentration of TMAC exceeds 80mM, the amplification efficiency decreases, and therefore TMAC is preferably used in the above range.
Therefore, when the PCR buffer composition of the present invention comprises 5 to 80mM TMAC, the concentration of KCl may be 40 to 90mM, preferably 50 to 80mM, (NH) 4 ) 2 SO 4 The concentration of (B) may be 1 to 7mM, preferably 1.5 to 6mM.
Thus, when TMAC is included, an optimal PCR buffer composition of the present invention may include 15 to 70mM TMAC;50 to 80mM KCl;1.5 to 6mM of (NH) 4 ) 2 SO 4 (ii) a The final pH was 8.0 to 9.0.
The PCR buffer composition of the present invention may further comprise Tris. Cl and MgCl 2 Further, tween 20 and Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) may be included.
The present invention provides a PCR kit for detecting gene mutation or SNP comprising the PCR buffer composition.
The PCR kit of the present invention may further comprise a PCR primer consisting of SEQ ID NO:1, the DNA polymerase can comprise (a) the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, the substitution of the 507 amino acid residue in the amino acid sequence of seq id no; and (b) SEQ ID NO:1, the substitution of the 536 th amino acid residue, the substitution of the 660 th amino acid residue, or the substitution of the 536 th and 660 th, i.e., two, amino acid residues.
According to another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the substitution of 507 amino acid residue is a substitution of glutamic acid (E) with lysine (K), the substitution of 536 amino acid residue is a substitution of arginine (R) with lysine (K), and the substitution of 660 amino acid residue is a substitution of arginine (R) with valine (V).
The PCR kit of the present invention may include any reagents or other elements known to those of ordinary skill in the art for use in primer extension.
According to another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the PCR kit comprises more than one matched primer, more than one mismatched primer or more than one matched primer and more than one mismatched primer, wherein the more than one matched primer and the more than one mismatched primer hybridize to the target sequence, and the mismatched primer comprises an atypical (non-canonical) nucleotide at the 3' end to the 7 th base position of the hybridized target sequence.
The PCR kit of the present invention may further comprise: a) A nucleoside triphosphate; b) A quantification reagent that binds to double-stranded DNA; c) A polymerase blocking antibody; d) One or more control values or control sequences; e) One or more templates.
The "Taq polymerase", which is a thermostable DNA polymerase named according to the name of Thermus aquaticus (Thermus aquaticus), is originally isolated from the thermophilic bacterium. Thermus aquaticus is a bacterium that inhabits in hot springs and hot water spray ports, and Taq polymerase is an enzyme that is recognized as an enzyme capable of withstanding the conditions of protein denaturation (high temperature) required in the PCR process. The optimal activity temperature of Taq polymerase is 75-80 ℃, the half-life period is more than 2 hours at 92.5 ℃, 40 minutes at 95 ℃ and 9 minutes at 97.5 ℃, and 1000 base pairs of DNA can be copied within 10 seconds at 72 ℃. This lacks 3 → '5' exonuclease (exouclase) correcting activity and the error rate was measured in about 1 out of 9000 nucleotides. For example, when thermostable Taq is used, PCR can be performed at a high temperature (60 ℃ or higher). For Taq polymerase, SEQ ID NO:1 as a reference sequence.
In the present invention, SEQ ID NO:1, the Taq polymerase in which glutamic acid (E) at the 507 th amino acid residue is substituted with lysine (K) is named "E507K" (SEQ ID NO:2, base sequence SEQ ID NO: 7); SEQ ID NO:1, the Taq polymerase in which glutamic acid (E) at the 507 th amino acid residue is substituted with lysine (K) and arginine (R) at the 536 th amino acid residue is substituted with lysine (K) is named "E507K/R536K" (SEQ ID NO:3, base sequence SEQ ID NO: 8); the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:1, the Taq polymerase in which glutamic acid (E) at the 507 th amino acid residue is substituted with lysine (K) and arginine (R) at the 660 th amino acid residue is substituted with valine (V) is named "E507K/R660V" (SEQ ID NO:4, base sequence SEQ ID NO: 9); finally, SEQ ID NO:1, glutamic acid (E) at the 507 amino acid residue was substituted with lysine (K), arginine (R) at the 536 amino acid residue was substituted with lysine (K), and Taq polymerase in which arginine (R) at the 660 amino acid residue was substituted with valine (V) was named "E507K/R536K/R660V" (SEQ ID NO:5, base sequence SEQ ID NO: 10).
According to one embodiment of the present invention, the DNA polymerase distinguishes between a matched primer and a mismatched primer, which hybridize to a target sequence, and the mismatched primer, which may include an atypical nucleotide at its 3' end with respect to the hybridized target sequence.
The mismatch primer is a hybridizing oligonucleotide, must be sufficiently complementary to hybridize to the target sequence, but does not reflect the exact sequence of the target sequence.
The "canonical nucleotide" or "complementary nucleotide" refers to the standard Watson-Crick (Watson-Crick) base pairs, A-U, A-T, and G-C.
The "atypical nucleotide" or "non-complementary nucleotide" refers to A-C, A-G, G-U, G-T, T-C, T-U, A, G-G, T-T, U-U, C-C, C-U, except Watson-Crick base pairs.
According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the amplification of the target sequence comprising the matched primer may show a comparatively lower Ct value compared to the amplification of the target sequence comprising the mismatched primer.
For example, by covalently attaching one or more nucleotides to a primer, a DNA polymerase can extend a matched primer more efficiently than a primer that mismatches in a target-sequence dependent manner. Here, higher efficiency can be observed by the following example, as in RT-PCR, the Ct value of the matched primers is lower compared to the mismatched primers. The difference in Ct values between the matched and mismatched primers is 10 or more, preferably 10 to 20, or there is no amplicon synthesis caused by the mismatched primer.
For example, using a matched forward primer and reverse primer in a first reaction and a mismatched forward primer and matched reverse primer in the same experimental setup in a second reaction, the first reaction is larger than the second reaction by standard PCR-generated products.
The Ct (threshold cross cycle) value represents the DNA quantification method of quantitative PCR, depending on the fluorescence over the number of cycles of the plotted log phase. The threshold for DNA-based fluorescence detection is set at least slightly above background. The cycle number at which fluorescence exceeds the threshold is called Ct or Cq according to the MIQE criterion (quantification cycle). The Ct value for a given reaction is defined as the number of cycles at which the fluorescence emission crosses the fixed limit. For example, SYBR Green I and fluorescent probes can be used for real-time PCR for template DNA quantification. Fluorescence from the sample was collected during PCR at each cycle and plotted against cycle number. The initial template concentration is inversely proportional to the time at which the fluorescent signal is initially displayed. The higher the template concentration, the earlier the signal appears (at lower cycle numbers).
The invention also relates to nucleic acid sequences encoding the above DNA polymerases and vectors and host cells comprising the nucleic acid sequences. Various vectors can be prepared using the nucleic acid encoding the DNA polymerase of the present invention. Any vector may be used which includes replicon and control sequences derived from a species interchangeable with the host cell. The vector of the present invention may be an expression vector and comprise a nucleic acid region controlling transcription and translation operably linked to a nucleic acid sequence encoding a DNA polymerase of the present invention. Control sequences refer to the DNA sequences required for expression of an operably linked coding sequence in a particular host organism. For example, suitable regulatory sequences for prokaryotes include a promoter, any operational sequences and an alc ribosome binding site. In addition, the vector may contain a "Positive Regulatory Element (PRE)" to enhance the half-life of the transcribed mRNA. The nucleic acid regions that control transcription and translation are generally suitable for use in a host cell for expression of a polymerase. Various types of suitable expression vectors and suitable regulatory sequences for use in various host cells are known in the art. Generally, transcriptional and translational regulatory sequences can include, for example, promoter sequences, ribosome binding sites, transcriptional start and stop sequences, translational start and stop sequences, and enhancer or activating sequences. In typical embodiments, the regulatory sequences include a promoter and transcription initiation and termination sequences. The vector will also typically contain a polylinker region containing several restriction sites for insertion of foreign DNA. In certain embodiments, a "fusion tag" is used to facilitate purification, and if desired, the tag/tag (e.g., "histidine-tag") is subsequently removed. However, these are generally not necessary when purifying a thermoactive and/or thermostable protein from a mesophilic host (e.g. E.coli) using a "heating step". Appropriate vectors containing coding DNA replication sequences, regulatory sequences, phenotype selection genes, and the mutant polymerase of interest are prepared using standard recombinant DNA techniques. As is known in the art, isolated plasmids, viral vectors and DNA fragments are broken down and cut and ligated together in a specific order to produce the desired vector.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the expression vector contains a selectable marker gene for selection of transformed host cells. Selection genes are known in the art and will vary depending on the host cell used. Suitable selection genes may include genes encoding ampicillin and/or tetracycline resistance, whereby cells cultured with these vectors can be transformed in the presence of these antibiotics.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the nucleic acid sequence encoding the DNA polymerase of the invention is introduced into the cell alone or in combination with a vector. Introduction or equivalent expression thereof means that the nucleic acid enters the cell in a manner suitable for subsequent integration, amplification and/or expression. Methods of introduction include, for example, caPO 4 Precipitation, liposome fusion,

Electrophoresis, viral infection, and the like.
Prokaryotes are used as host cells for the initial cloning steps of the invention. This is particularly useful in order to prepare large quantities of DNA rapidly, to prepare single stranded DNA templates for generating site-directed mutations, to screen many mutants simultaneously, and to sequence the resulting mutants for DNA. Suitable host cells for prokaryotic cells include e.coli K12 strain 94 (ATCC No.31,446), e.coli W3110 (ATCC No.27,325), e.coli K12 strain DG116 (ATCC No.53,606), e.coli X1776 (ATCC No.31,537), and e.coli B; coli, such as HB101, JM101, NM522, NM538, NM539, and other species, including the bacillaceae family, such as Bacillus subtilis, other enterobacteriaceae family, such as Salmonella typhimurium, serratia marcescens, and various prokaryotic genera of Pseudomonas species (Pseudomonas sp.) may be used as hosts, typically plasmids used to transform e.coli (e.coli) include pBR322, pUCI8, pucscriri 9, pucc 8, pucc 119, and bluept m13, however, many other suitable vectors may be used.
The present invention also provides a method for preparing a DNA polymerase, comprising the steps of: a step of culturing the host cell; a step of isolating the DNA polymerase from the culture and the culture supernatant thereof.
The DNA polymerase of the present invention is prepared by culturing a host cell transformed with an expression vector containing a nucleic acid sequence encoding the DNA polymerase under appropriate conditions to induce or cause expression of the DNA polymerase. Methods for culturing transformed host cells under conditions suitable for protein expression are known in the art. A suitable host cell for the preparation of polymerases with plasmid vectors containing the lambda pL promoter is the E.coli strain DG116 (ATCC No. 53606). Depending on the expression, the polymerase can be collected and isolated.
Once purified, mismatch discrimination of the DNA polymerase of the present invention can be determined. For example, mismatch discrimination activity is measured by comparing the amplification of a target sequence with a perfect match of a primer to the amplification of a target sequence with a single base mismatch at the 3' end of the primer. Amplification can be detected in real time, for example, by using TaqMan TM And (3) a probe. The ability of the polymerase to distinguish between two target sequences can be estimated by comparing the Ct of the two reactions.
The present invention provides a method for detecting at least one gene mutation or SNP in vitro (in vitro) from more than one template using the PCR kit.
The term "SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms)" refers to a genetic change or mutation showing a difference in one Nucleotide sequence (A, T, G or C) in a DNA Nucleotide sequence.
In the in vitro (in vitro) SNP detection method of the invention, the target sequence may be present in the test sample and comprises DNA, cDNA or RNA, preferably genomic DNA. The test sample may be a cell lysate prepared from bacteria, a bacterial culture or a cell culture. In addition, the test sample may be comprised in an animal, preferably in a vertebrate, more preferably in a human subject. The target sequence may be comprised in genomic DNA, preferably in genomic DNA of an individual, more preferably in a bacterium or a vertebrate, most preferably in genomic DNA of a human subject.
The SNP detection method of the invention may include melting temperature analysis using a double strand specific dye such as SYBR Green I.
Melting temperature profile analysis can be performed in real-time PCR equipment such as ABI 5700/7000 (96-well format) or ABI 7900 (384-well format) including software (one board software SDS 2.1). Alternatively, the melting temperature profile analysis may be performed as an endpoint analysis.
"dye that binds to double-stranded DNA" or "double-strand specific dye" may be used in the case where it has high fluorescence when bound to double-stranded DNA compared to when it is not bound to double-stranded DNA. Examples of such dyes include SOYTO-9, SOYTO-13, SOYTO-16, SOYTO-60, SOYTO-64, SYTO-82, bromoethane (EtBr), SYTOX Orange, TO-PRO-1, SYBR Green I, TO-PRO-3 or EvaGreen. These dyes have been used for real-time application testing, except EtBr and EvaGreen (Quiagen).
The in vitro (in vitro) SNP detection method of the invention can be carried out by real-time PCR, agarose gel analysis after standard PCR, gene mutation-specific amplification or allele-specific amplification by real-time PCR, four-primer amplification hindered mutation system PCR or isothermal amplification.
By "standard PCR" is meant a technique known to the skilled artisan for amplifying a single or multiple copies of DNA or cDNA. Almost all PCR uses Taq polymerase or a thermostable DNA polymerase such as Klen Taq. DNA polymerases enzymatically assemble a new DNA strand from nucleotides by using single-stranded DNA as a template and using oligonucleotides (primers). Amplicons produced by PCR can be analyzed on agarose gels.
The "real-time PCR" can monitor the process of PCR in real time as it is performed. Thus, data is collected throughout the PCR, rather than at the end of the PCR. In real-time PCR, the reaction is characterized by the point in the cycle at which amplification is first detected, rather than the target amount accumulated after a fixed number of cycles. Quantitative PCR is performed mainly using two methods, dye-based detection and probe-based detection.
The "Allele Specific Amplification (ASA)" is an Amplification technique in which PCR primers are designed to distinguish between other templates by a single nucleotide residue.
The "gene mutation-specific amplification or allele-specific amplification by real-time PCR" can detect a gene mutation or SNP in an efficient manner. Unlike most other methods of detecting gene mutations or SNPs, pre-amplification of the target genetic material is not necessary. ASA combines amplification and detection in a single reaction based on the difference between matched and mismatched primer/target sequence complexes. The increase in amplified DNA during the reaction can be monitored in real time by the increase in fluorescent signal caused by a dye such as SYBR Green I, which emits light when bound to double stranded DNA. By genetic mutation-specific amplification or allele-specific amplification by real-time PCR, a delay in the appearance of a fluorescent signal or absence of a signal occurs when a mismatch occurs. In gene mutation or SNP detection, this provides information about the presence or absence of a gene mutation or SNP.
The four-primer amplification hindered mutation system PCR and a control fragment amplify wild type and mutant alleles together in a single-tube PCR reaction. The non-allele-specific control amplicon was amplified by two universal (outer) primers flanking the mutation region. The two allele-specific (internal) primers are designed in the opposite direction to the universal primers and amplify both wild-type and mutant amplicons with the universal primers. As a result, the two allele-specific amplicons, which are of different lengths due to the asymmetric position of the mutation relative to the universal (outer) primer, can be easily separated by standard gel electrophoresis. The control amplicon provides an internal control for false negatives and amplification failures, and at least one of the two allele-specific amplicons is consistently present in the four-primer amplification hindered mutation system PCR.
By "isothermal amplification" is meant that amplification of nucleic acids is performed at lower temperatures, independent of the thermal cycler, preferably temperatures that do not need to be changed during amplification. The temperature used in isothermal amplification may be between room temperature (22-24 ℃) and about 65 ℃, or at ambient temperatures of about 60-65 ℃, 45-50 ℃, 37-42 ℃, or 22-24 ℃. Isothermal amplification products can be detected by gel electrophoresis, ELISA, elaos (Enzyme linked oligonucleotide assay), real-time PCR, ECL (modified chemiluminescence), chip-based capillary electrophoresis device bioanalyzer (bioanalyzer) for analysis of RNA, DNA, and proteins or turbidity.
In one embodiment of the invention, it is confirmed whether the mismatch primer extension ability is reduced for a template comprising a SNP (rs 1408799, rs1015362 and/or rs 4911414) using E507K/R536K, E507K/R660V or E507K/R536K/R660V Taq polymerase.
As a result, as shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, it was confirmed that the amplification delay caused by the mismatched primer was most significant in E507K/R536K/R660V Taq polymerase compared to E507K Taq polymerase, and the effect was most significant in E507K/R536K/R660V Taq polymerase.
This confirmed that the DNA polymerase of the present invention has higher mismatch extension selectivity compared to conventional Taq polymerase (E507K). Therefore, the DNA polymerase of the present invention is expected to be effectively applied to medical diagnosis of diseases and research of recombinant DNA.
According to another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the PCR kit comprises more than one matched primer, more than one mismatched primer or more than one matched primer and more than one mismatched primer, wherein the more than one matched primer and the more than one mismatched primer hybridize to the target sequence, and the mismatched primer comprises an atypical (non-canonical) nucleotide at the 3' end to the 7 th base position of the hybridized target sequence.
The PCR kit of the present invention may further comprise nucleoside triphosphates.
The PCR kit of the present invention further comprises a) one or more buffers; b) A quantification reagent that binds to double-stranded DNA; c) A polymerase blocking antibody; d) One or more control values or control sequences; e) One or more templates; as shown in the figure.
The present invention will be described in detail by examples. These embodiments are illustrative of the present invention and those having ordinary skill in the art will understand that the scope of the present invention is not limited to the embodiments.

Example 3 qPCR Using the DNA polymerase of the present invention
Using Taq polymerases each containing the mutations "E507K/R536K", "E507K/R660V" and "E507K/R536K/R660V" obtained in the above example 2, it was confirmed whether or not the ability to extend the mismatch primer was reduced with respect to the SNP-containing template. As a control group, "E507K" Taq polymerase containing the E507K mutation was used.

Except for the specific primers shown in table 13, other reaction solutions were prepared in the same manner in two test tubes, and qPCR was performed by adding each allele-specific primer. At this point, the fluorescence signals detected in each tube were pooled to calculate and analyze the difference in cycle (Ct) values for reaching a threshold (threshold) fluorescence value on AB7500 software (v 2.0.6). The longer the time for which the Ct value is delayed in amplification by the mismatch primer, the better the gene mutation specificity or the allele specificity can be judged.
As a result of AS-qPCR in rs1408799, rs1015362 and rs4911414, AS shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, it was confirmed that the effect of the amplification delay caused by the mismatch primer was most significant in the E507K/R536K/R660V mutation in the case of Taq polymerase containing the E507K/R536K, E507K/R660V mutation, or E507K/R536K/R660V mutation, AS compared to the control group E507K.
This confirms that the Taq DNA polymerase comprising the E507K/R536K, E507K/R660V or E507K/R536K/R660V mutation of the present invention has more excellent mismatch extension selectivity compared to the Taq polymerase comprising the E507K mutation. Therefore, the Taq DNA polymerase of the present invention is expected to be effectively applied to medical diagnosis of diseases and research of recombinant DNA.

For the template containing the SNP, rs1408799 was used, the genotype of the template was TT, and rs1408799 primer described in table 12 was used as the primer.
