Description

Method for detecting 5-hydroxymethylcytosine based on non-labeled and non-immobilized electrochemical magnetic biosensor
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of biology, and particularly relates to a method for detecting 5-hydroxymethylcytosine by using a non-label non-immobilized electrochemical magnetic biosensor for non-disease diagnosis.
Background
Accurate quantification of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) remains a great challenge compared to 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) assay, as it has a relatively low abundance and similarity to the more abundant 5-methylcytosine. The bisulfite sequencing method is considered as a standard for 5-methylcytosine determination, but it has the disadvantage that it cannot distinguish between 5-methylcytosine and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine. Currently, various methods for 5-hydroxymethylcytosine determination in genomic DNA have been developed, such as single molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing, liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS-MS), High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC), enzymatic radiolabelling and immunoassays, which can effectively distinguish 5-hydroxymethylcytosine from 5-methylcytosine.
Electrochemical biosensors based on enzyme modification have been used to detect low abundance (pM level) 5-hydroxymethylcytosine due to their advantages of low cost, portability and high sensitivity. However, enzyme modification-based methods require expensive DNA sequence-limited enzymes, synthetase cofactor/substrate analogs, and cumbersome base modification steps. To overcome these limitations, an Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor based on KRuO has been developed45-hydroxymethylcytosine-DNA can be quantified by specific oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine to 5-formylcytosine (5-fC) and then labeled with the Electrochemiluminescent (ECL) luminescent molecule N- (4-aminobutyl) -N-ethyl isoluminol (ABEI). More recently, the Bayley group has discovered an alternative approach in which 5-hydroxymethylcytosine is chemically modified in situ in one step with biotin, allowing rare 5-hydroxymethylcytosine-containing sequences to be enriched and identified using protein nanopores. However, these methods are only proof of concept and they are not suitable for detecting 5-hydroxymethylcytosine in genomic DNA.

Hybridization of single-stranded DNA containing 5-hydroxymethylcytosine with complementary DNA forms double-stranded DNA, and subsequent introduction of a biotin-cysteine derivative enables one-step incorporation of biotin into double-stranded DNA containing 5-hydroxymethylcytosine sites. After removal of excess cysteine-biotin and salts using a Micro-Bio-Spin P6 column, biotinylated double stranded DNA was enriched by specific biotin-streptavidin interaction using magnetic beads with streptavidin coating. Subsequently, the 3' -hydroxyl terminal of the DNA can be extended by terminal transferase-catalyzed repeated addition of dNTPs without any need for any extensionDNA template, resulting in longer DNA sequences.

Examples
The quantitative analysis method comprises the following steps:
extraction of total intracellular DNA: the culture medium for human cervical cancer cell line (HeLa cells) and human embryonic kidney cell line (HEK 293T) cells was Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) containing 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) and 1% penicillin-streptomycin, and was cultured in an incubator containing 5% carbon dioxide at 37 ℃. When the cells grow to the logarithmic growth phase, extracting and purifying the total DNA in the cells by using a cultured cell DNA extraction kit (Epigenek), wherein the extraction and purification operations are strictly carried out according to the instructions attached to the kit, and the concentration of the obtained total DNA is measured by using an ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer.
Biotinylation of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine sites in DNA mediated by the one-step bisulfite method: one-step bisulfite-mediated biotinylation of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine in DNA was performed with cysteine-biotin. Cysteine-biotin (120. mu.L, 10. mu.M, pH adjusted to 5.0 with 10M sodium hydroxide) and 10. mu.L of double-stranded DNA (5-hydroxymethylcytosine-complementary DNA) with different concentrations were mixed in a 200. mu.L centrifuge tube. Mixing Na2S2O5(5 μ L, 1.0M, pH 5.0) was added to the solution, followed by incubation at 42 ℃ for 48 hours. After the solution was cooled to room temperature, the pH was adjusted to 13 with 10M sodium hydroxide. After 5 minutes of reaction at room temperature, the sample was passed through a Micro-Bio-Spin P6 column (Bio Rad) three times to remove excess cysteine-biotin and salts.
Preparation of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine DNA-Linked magnetic beads 4. mu.L of streptavidin-coated magnetic bead suspension was transferred to the above 200. mu.L centrifuge tube and washed twice with 50. mu.L of washing buffer (0.5M NaCl, 20mM tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 1mM EDTA.) the magnetic beads were separated by removing the supernatant using a magnetic separation rack, 50. mu.L of buffer containing 1 × terminal transferase (10mM Mg (Ac))2,20mM Tris-Ac,50mM KAc,pH=7.9),0.25mM CoCl21mM dNTPs, 6U terminal transferase reaction system for enzymatic amplification, and then again with washing buffer to form sensor array.
Electrochemical measurement: will contain 1mM PBS (pH 7.4), 0.1M NaCl, 27. mu.M Ru (NH)3)6 3+And 2mM Fe (CN)6 3-The solution was added to a centrifuge tube containing isolated biotinylated 5-hydroxymethylcytosine DNA/magnetic beads. 100 μ L of the above solution was then transferred to the surface of a screen printed carbon electrode. Biotinylated 5-hydroxymethylcytosine DNA/magnetic bead complexes were immobilized on a screen printed carbon electrode by applying a super magnet below the surface of the working electrode. The electrochemical response was recorded using Differential Pulse Voltammetry (DPV) (reference electrode Ag/AgCl) from 0 to-500 mV, pulse amplitude 50mV, and pulse width 50 ms.
To verify the feasibility of this approach, the preparation of electrochemical magnetic biosensors was characterized by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) and zeta potential (fig. 2). Electron transfer resistance (R)et) From [ Fe (CN) ]6]3-/4-Electron transfer kinetics control on the modified screen-printed carbon electrode and can be characterized by the semi-circle diameter of the nyquist plot. As shown in FIG. 2A, the electron transfer resistance (R) of the magnetic beads of the non-stationary screen-printed carbon electrodeet) At 5980 Ω (fig. 2A, curve a). In contrast, due to negatively charged DNA and [ Fe (CN)6]3-/4-The biotinylated 5-hydroxymethyl cytosine DNA/magnetic bead shows larger electron transfer resistance (R) under the action of electrostatic repulsionet) And 7120 Ω (FIG. 2A, curve b), indicating successful modification of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine DNA on magnetic beads. After incubation of biotinylated 5-hydroxymethylcytosine DNA with terminal transferase, the electron transfer resistance (R)et) Increasing to 9980 omega. This can be explained by the fact that: after terminal transferase catalyzed polymerization, the more negatively charged phosphate backbone of biotinylated 5-hydroxymethylcytosine DNA may be hindered [ Fe (CN)6]3-/4-Electron transfer from the solution to the electrode surface (fig. 2A, curve c).
The zeta potential was used to study the attachment of biotinylated 5-hydroxymethylcytosine to the magnetic beads. As shown in FIG. 2B, the addition of biotinylated 5-hydroxymethylcytosine DNA (FIG. 2B, curve B, -4.5. + -. 0.2mV) induced a significant change in zeta potential compared to the control with magnetic beads alone (FIG. 2B, curve a, -2.3. + -. 0.5mV), indicating successful coating of biotinylated 5-hydroxymethylcytosine DNA on the surface of the magnetic beads. When 5-hydroxymethylcytosine DNA was incubated with terminal transferase, a higher negative zeta potential (-10.2. + -. 0.4mV) was observed due to terminal transferase catalyzed polymerization induced by biotinylated 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (FIG. 2B, curve c).
In Ru (NH)3)6 3+And Fe (CN)6 3-Before and after terminal transferase assisted base extension, DPV measurements were recorded using different electrodes including magnetic bead/screen printed carbon electrode, biotinylated 5-hydroxymethylcytosine DNA/magnetic bead/screen printed carbon electrode (fig. 2C). In the control group, which did not have a 5-hydroxymethylcytosine site in the DNA, the current was small (5.59. mu.A) (FIG. 2C, curve a). When the 5-hydroxymethylcytosine site in the DNA was biotinylated, the signal increased to 7.85. mu.A (FIG. 2C, curve b) due to the uptake of large amounts of Ru (NH) on the negatively charged phosphate backbone of the biotinylated 5-hydroxymethylcytosine DNA3)6 3+. After incubation of biotinylated 5-hydroxymethylcytosine DNA/magnetic beads with terminal transferase, the signal increased further to 11.5. mu.A (FIG. 2C, curve C) because of more Ru (NH)3)6 3+Electrostatically bound to an elongated negatively charged phosphate backbone. These results demonstrate the feasibility of the biosensor for the detection of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine.
Under optimal experimental conditions, the present invention evaluated the analytical performance of a magnetoelectric biosensor in response to different concentrations of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine DNA, as shown in FIG. 3A, with increasing 5-hmC DNA concentration from 0.01 to 1000pM, DPV signal was enhanced, the logarithm of current to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine DNA concentration obtained a linear relationship (FIG. 3B) ranging from 0.01 to 1000pM, the detection limit calculated as 9.06 fM. the sensitivity of the biosensor was 4 orders of magnitude higher than that of electrochemical analysis based on modification of DNA methyltransferase (0.23nM), 4 orders of magnitude higher than that of fluorescence analysis based on modification of β -glucosyltransferase (0.167nM), 46 times higher than that of optical sensor based on specific antibody (0.42pM), and 46 times higher than that based on KRuO 45 of the electroluminescent chemiluminescence method (0.14pM)The selective chemical oxidation of hydroxymethylcytosine is 25 times higher, which is sufficient to demonstrate the high sensitivity of the detection of the present invention.
To investigate the specificity of this biosensor, 5-methylcytosine with a single 5-methylcytosine site and normal DNA cytosine (C) were used as negative controls. As shown in FIG. 4C, under the same conditions, a higher peak current change was detected only in the presence of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine. The peak current change (Δ I) for 5-hydroxymethylcytosine was 22 and 39 times higher than for normal DNA cytosine (C) and 5-methylcytosine DNA (FIG. 4C), indicating that the biosensor has high specificity. The high specificity of the present method can be attributed to the fact that the chemical reaction of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine modification cannot take place at any other non-hydroxymethylated nucleobase.
In order to evaluate the feasibility of the biosensor proposed by the present invention in clinical diagnosis, two different cancer cell lines, including, were measured using the biosensor. The concentration of genomic DNA was measured by Q-5000UltramicroUV-Vis spectrophotometer (Quawell, USA). As shown in fig. 5, the 5-hydroxymethylcytosine content in the human cervical cancer cell line (HeLa cells) and the human embryonic kidney cell line (HEK293T cells) was determined to be 0.00793% and 0.00977% of the total nucleotides, respectively, in agreement with the previously reported results determined by dot blot based on β -glucosyltransferase modification (0.007% and 0.009%, respectively, of the total nucleotides).
The above embodiments are preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and any other changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications which do not depart from the spirit and principle of the present invention should be construed as equivalents thereof, and all such changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications are intended to be included in the scope of the present invention.
