Description

Nucleotide analogs and method for screening DNA polymerase
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular, the present invention relates to nucleotide analogs and methods of screening for DNA polymerases.
Background
With the successful decoding of the human genome, gene sequencing technology is becoming more and more widely used, and sequencing-by-synthesis (SBS) is favored because of its high throughput and low price. SBS sequencing technology utilizes a polymerase to introduce each fluorescently labeled nucleotide into a DNA primer, and then measures the fluorescent signal from the nucleotide to identify the base of the nucleotide and simultaneously analyze its complementary base. However, since nucleoside triphosphates for SBS are essentially double-modified reversible terminators (DRTs) that have reversible blocking groups at the 3' -OH portion of nucleoside triphosphates and fluorophore modifications at the bases, this double modification does not allow the linkage linking the fluorophore to the base to be completely removed after sequencing, thus leaving so-called molecular scars, as sequencing proceeds, newly polymerized strands contain more molecular scars, and eventually accumulation of molecular scars reduces polymerase activity and fidelity, resulting in limited number of bases sequenced.
The single Modified Reversible Terminator (MRT) is on the 3' -OH group, the reversible blocking group has double functions, and can be used as a reporter of a fluorescence signal and a reversible terminator, and the modification mode can successfully avoid molecular scars generated in SBS when DRT modification is adopted, so that the influence on polymerase is reduced, and the reading length of sequencing is improved.
However, conventional DNA polymerases bred under natural conditions cannot utilize MRT-modified nucleotide triphosphates to perform efficient polymerization, and appropriate artificial modification or modification of the polymerase is required to make MRT-modified nucleotide triphosphates widely applicable to SBS sequencing technology. In addition, the size of the modified nucleotide triphosphate can also be reduced to facilitate enzymatic polymerization.
However, the DNA polymerases that can utilize MRT technology are lacking in a direct, rapid and efficient screening system and utilization system.

Method for screening DNA polymerase
In a second aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a method of screening for a DNA polymerase. According to an embodiment of the invention, the method comprises: subjecting a reaction mixture comprising a nucleic acid molecule, a nucleotide analog, and a candidate DNA polymerase to first conditions suitable for a DNA polymerization reaction to occur; detecting the first detectable label in the reaction mixture; and determining a target DNA polymerase based on the detection result, wherein the nucleic acid molecule has a double-stranded region and a 5 '-single-stranded region, the 5' -single-stranded region having double-stranded region contiguous nucleotides; the nucleotide analog is a nucleotide analog as described previously, and the base of the nucleotide analog matches the base of the adjacent nucleotide of the double-stranded region.

3. Data analysis
The enzyme activity curve detected by the microplate reader is shown in FIG. 5
(1) In the embodiment, the size of a target fluorescence value Cy5 is detected by using a FRET method, and in an enzyme activity curve diagram, the larger the rising amplitude and the larger the speed of a screened enzyme activity curve are, the stronger the polymerization activity of the selected enzyme activity curve in the process of modifying the dATP marked by the Biotin by using MRT is;
(2) in addition to observing the curve plot, a linear fit can be performed on the curve, the reaction rates between the screening entities are relatively compared, and the formula is: y is kx + b, wherein y is the fluorescence value; k is the relative speed of the rise of the fluorescence value; b is the intercept. The greater the k value in the same set of screeners, the better the polymerase activity relative to the screener
(3) From the results in FIG. 5, it can be seen that K159 was more active than B9 in polymerization using MRT-modified Biotin-labeled dATP. (wherein K159 and B9 are codes of two DNA polymerases having catalytic activity selected in the experiment)
