Description

Application of reagent for detecting biomarkers in preparation of kit
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to the use of reagents for detecting biomarkers in the preparation of kits, and more particularly to non-diagnostic methods, genotyping systems for nucleic acid typing.
Background
Stargardt disease (STGD) is a retinal macular dystrophy disease which is usually seen in adolescents, has progressive decline of central vision in both eyes, is inherited from Autosomal Recessive Inheritance (ARI), has the incidence rate of about 1/10,000 and has the vision of 0.1 or below. Most lesions are located at the level of the Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE), eventually leading to photoreceptor cell death. The macula part is a round or oval pigment epithelium atrophy focus and pigment disorder.
STGD is highly genetically heterogeneous, and its pathogenic genes are mainly locked to ABCA4(ATP-BINDING cassete, SUBFAMILY a, MEMBER 4, ABCA4), the 4th MEMBER of the a subtype in the ATP-BINDING CASSETTE family, encoding PHOTORECEPTOR cell-SPECIFIC ATP-BINDING TRANSPORTERs on the RETINA (phototoreceptitor-SPECIFIC ATP-BINDING cassete TRANSPORTERs, RETINA-specfic, ABCR), and are therefore also referred to as ABCR. The ABCA4 gene is located on chromosome 1p22.1, contains 50 exons, and encodes 2273 amino acids. The ABCA4 mutation may also contribute to the pathogenesis of other inherited retinal degenerative diseases (HRD), such as Cone/rod dystrophy (cordi) and Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP), which are also high risk causative factors for advanced age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
Currently, the application of gene replacement therapy to treat HRD such as STGD has entered clinical trial, such as treatment of STGD (ABCA4 gene mutation, NCT01367444) and USH1B subtype patients of USH (MYO7A gene mutation, NCT 01062) with equine infectious anemia virus (ELAV) vector. Meanwhile, the transplantation of RPE cells derived from embryonic stem cells has also been applied to the clinical trial study of STGD. For such HRD diseases, the definitive genetic and clinical diagnosis of patients is the first prerequisite for the implementation of gene or stem cell therapy, and the identification of causative genes is the basis for the development of HRD therapy, so molecular genetic studies have become the first focus of attention.
In summary, the improvement of the new STGD genotype is important for the development and improvement of a new STGD gene detection technology.

The specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by those skilled in the art according to specific situations.
In a first aspect of the invention, the invention proposes the use of a reagent for detecting a biomarker for the preparation of a kit for the diagnosis of Stargardt. According to an embodiment of the invention, the biomarker is a nucleic acid molecule represented by the reference sequence SEQ ID NO:1, said biomarker comprising at least one of: c.371delG, c.6788G > A, c.681T > G, c.5509C > T and EX37 del. According to one embodiment of the invention, the reference sequence SEQ ID NO 1 is the sequence of wild-type ACBA4 gene, and the inventors confirmed that the mutations of ACBA4 gene c.371delG, c.6788G > A, c.681T > G, c.5509C > T and EX37del are closely related to STGD, so that whether the biological sample has STGD disease phenotype with higher probability can be deduced by detecting whether the biological sample has the mutation of the above-mentioned sites. c.371delg substitution of arginine for leucine at codon 124 of ACBA4, which after insertion of 30 wrong amino acids at this position, leads to premature termination of ABCA4 coding and translation (p.arg124leufsx30); large fragment deletion of EX37del at exon 37 of ACBA4 (complete deletion or partial sequence deletion of exon 37) resulted in significant reduction of exon 37 mRNA.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the reagent is further for detecting at least one of the following biomarkers: c.6118C > T, c.4537_4538insC, c.5300T > C, c.5882G > A and c.6563T > C. According to the embodiment of the invention, the reagent of the invention can be further used for detecting c.6118C > T, c.4537_4538insC, c.5300T > C, c.5882G > A or c.6563T > C, and the 5 mutations are also related to STGD. c.6118c > T has been reported to replace arginine by a stop codon at exon 44 codon 2040 of ACBA4 (p.arg2040ter), resulting in premature termination of the amino acid coding; c.4537-4538 insC is an insertion mutation at exon 30 of the ACBA4 gene, with cytosine (C) inserted at positions 4537 and 4538, resulting in a frame shift of the codon, glutamine mutated to proline at codon 1513, and an amino acid coding early termination after insertion of 41 mis-translated amino acids after proline, resulting in a truncation of the protein (p.gln 1513profsxsx41).
According to an embodiment of the invention, the reagent is further for detecting at least one of the following combinations of biomarkers: c.371delG and c.6118C > T, c.6788G > A and c.5300T > C, c.681T > G and c.5882G > A, c.5509C > T and c.6563T > C, and EX37del and c.4537_4538 insC. According to the embodiment of the invention, the mutations appear at the same time in pairs, which indicates that the sample to be detected has higher risk of suffering from Stargardt disease, namely: the detection of c.371delG and c.6118C > T, or c.6788G > A and c.5300T > C, or c.681T > G and c.5882G > A, or c.5509C > T and c.6563T > C, or EX37del and c.4537_4538insC, and the detection of c.371delG, c.6788G > A, c.681T > G, c.5509C > T or EX37del alone is not sufficient to indicate that the sample to be detected has a high risk of suffering from STGD diseases, but can be used as a reference factor for detecting that the sample has Stargardt diseases.
According to the specific embodiment of the invention, the gene ABCA 417 pathogenic mutation is found in the STGD family by adopting the target sequence capture of a specific gene and the NGS technology and through Sanger sequencing verification and mutation and clinical phenotype cosegregation verification, wherein 5 of the pathogenic mutations are new mutations found for the first time in the research: c.371delG, c.6788G > A, c.681T > G, c.5509C > T and EX37 del. The nonsense mutation c.6118c > T was detected simultaneously in two STGD families, of which two were detected as homozygous mutations. The pathogenic mutations are summarized in table 1.
Table 1: pathogenic mutation of STGD family ABCA4 gene
Figure BDA0002945268680000051
Of the 17 mutations identified, 5 were the first to be proposed in this application, 2 of which were truncation mutations, leading to premature termination of the amino acid translation process during translation of the mRNA, which leads to disruption of protein structure and function, and large deletion mutations. The large fragment heterozygosis deletion (EX37del) of the STGD-Family 537 exon is carried out, qPCR verification is carried out on the No. 37 exon, and the result shows that the expression quantity of mRNA of the paternal No. 37 exon of the proband and the proband is obviously lower than that of a normal control, and the difference has statistical significance (p is less than 0.01); the expression level of exon 37 mRNA of proband mother is not different from that of normal control, and has no statistical significance (p > 0.05). The remaining two missense mutations are predicted to be pathogenic according to pathogenicity prediction criteria. In STGD F1, two complex heterozygous mutations associated with the disease were detected: mutation c.6190g > a and splicing mutation c.1937+1G > a. Missense mutation c.6190g > a at exon 45 resulted in the substitution of threonine for alanine at codon 2064 (p.ala2064thr), reported in chinese and estonia populations. In F2, two compound heterozygote mutations of c.2424C > G and c.1761-2A > G were detected in proband (F2-II-3). The nonsense mutation c.2424c > G is located in exon 16, and tyrosine was replaced by a stop codon (p.tyr808ter) at codon 808, resulting in premature termination of the amino acid coding of the ABCA4 gene. In F3, proband (F3-II-2) detected two compound heterozygous mutations c.371delG and c.6118C > T. The new mutation c.371delg, in which 30 wrong amino acids were inserted after the substitution of arginine by leucine at codon 124, resulted in the premature termination of ABCA4 coding and translation (p.arg124leufsx30). Another nonsense mutation, c.6118c > T, has been reported to replace arginine at exon 44 codon 2040 with a stop codon (p.arg2040ter), resulting in premature termination of the amino acid coding. In F4, two reported mutations, c.6118C > T and c.3385C > T, were found in the proband (F4-II-1). The nonsense mutation c.6118c > T was detected twice in this study. The missense mutation c.3385c > T is located at exon 23 codon 1129 with cystine replacing arginine (p.arg 1129cys). In F5, a large fragment deletion of exon 37 (EX37del) was detected in proband (F5-II-1). The other is an insertion mutation at the position of exon 30, cytosine (C) is inserted in the positions 4537 and 4538 (c.4537 — 4538insC), which results in the frame shift of the codon, glutamine is mutated to proline at the 1513 position of the codon, and the amino acid coding is terminated early after 41 mis-translated amino acids are inserted after proline, resulting in protein truncation (p.gln1513profsx41), which is reported in the literature. In F6, the homozygote missense mutation c.1924t > a was detected, which we have previously reported. In F7, proband F7-II-2 carries the homozygous splicing mutation c.6816+1G > A, also reported in STGD patients in China. F8 detected two mutations that could be related to the disease, a new missense mutation at exon 49 c.6788G > A and a reported missense mutation at exon 37 c.5300T > C. Two mutations c.10695t > a and c.449t > G were detected by F9. c.10695t > a is a missense mutation reported in exon 42, with a glutamic acid substituted for glycine at codon 1961 (p.g 1961e). c.449T > G is a newly reported mutation in this study, with the tyrosine replaced by a stop codon at codon 227 (p.Y227Ter) and the amino acid encoding a premature stop. In F10, two missense mutations c.6563t > C and c.5509c > T led to the development of this family disease.

Ten STGD family information were collected in total for this study. STGD F1, STGD F2, STGD F3, and STGD F6 families had two or more patients, and the remaining families had only one patient per patient. The analysis of the simplified family spectrogram (shown in fig. 6) shows that: the proband the patient carry two allelic mutations of the gene ABCA4, and the two allelic mutations are from father or mother; the clinical phenotypes of the parents were normal and were carriers of the gene ABCA 4; there is no continuous inheritance phenomenon in the family pathogenic system spectrogram. The genetic characteristics conform to the characteristics of Autosomal Recessive Inheritance (ARI).
2. Ten Stargardt disease pedigree clinical phenotype profiles
The report divides patients into two categories, the first category being adult onset patients (age at which symptoms first appear ≧ 17 years) and the second category being pediatric onset patients (age at which symptoms first appear <17 years).
Based on the results of electroretinograms (FERG and PERG), patients were classified into type 3, which is currently the most common classification standard.
ERG 1: the clinical manifestation is the lightest, the damage of the electrophysiological function of the retina is only limited to a macular area, the photopic and scotopic reactions of the FERG are normal, and the PERG is abnormal;
ERG 2: the clinical manifestations are moderate, the damage of the electrophysiological functions of the retina has affected the cone function of the whole retina except the macular area, the photopic response of FERG is abnormal, and PERG is abnormal;
ERG 3: the clinical manifestations are the most serious, the damage of the electrophysiological function of the retina not only affects the macular area, but also affects the functions of the cone and rod of the whole retina, and the photopic and scotopic vision response and PERG of FERG are abnormal.
AF is specifically classified into type 3 according to the manifestation of the patient's fundus AF:
AF1 type: the clinical visual function impairment is the least, the low fluorescence is limited in the fovea centralis of the macula, the fluorescence with or without high signal or low signal is in the side of the fovea centralis, and the background fluorescence is homogeneous and uniform.
AF2 type: in the clinical aspect, the function is damaged moderately, the low fluorescence of the macula lutea central fovea is limited, the fluorescence of high signals or low signals beside the central fovea extends to the outside of the blood vessel arch ring, and the background fluorescence is heterogeneous and uneven.
AF3 type: the clinical visual function is most seriously damaged, the posterior pole part is spread with a plurality of low-signal fluorescence, the center is concave or has no high-signal or low-signal fluorescence, and the background fluorescence is heterogeneous and uneven.
The fundus can be classified into three types according to the performance of the fundus of a patient.
Type 1: atrophy of the macular area with or without yellow spots.
Type 2: lesions in the macular area extend to the vascular arch or nasal side to the optic disc.
Type 3: the lesion exceeds the vascular arch of the macular area and extends to the whole posterior pole.
The patient's age at the earliest symptoms, Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA), AF and ERG characteristics were combined to classify the severity of the disease into mild, moderate and severe grade 3, as shown in Table 2.

Light and heavy: as long as the standards of more than or equal to 2 are met; BCVA, best corrected vision; FAF, retinal autofluorescence; ERG, full field electroretinogram.
The ten ancestral patients and the patients mainly complain about the progressive decline of the vision of the centers of the eyes, the onset age is 3-20 years old, the earliest patient is 3 years old when symptoms appear, and the family members find that the patients are very close to watching TV. They exhibited a series of more typical STGD ophthalmic symptoms. The clinical characteristics of the ten STGD family probands are summarized in table 3, including the age of treatment, sex, age of onset, earliest symptoms, best corrected vision, etc., and fundus images for ophthalmic examination, AF, OCT, FERG, PERG, etc. Fundus photographs, AF images, and OCT images of the first five probands are shown in fig. 7 (right eye) and fig. 8 (left eye); the results of the FERG and PERG examinations are shown in FIG. 9 (right eye).

STGD F1, STGD F4, and STGD F9 probands were all patients with STGD adulthood onset (age of first onset of symptoms ≥ 17 years) and exhibited mild clinical phenotype. The STGD F1, STGD F4, and STGD F9 probands all retained poor central vision by age 28: f1 the BCVA of the right eye and the BCVA of the left eye of the proband is 0.25 and 0.30 respectively; f4 the first person has slightly poor BCVA in both eyes, the right eye is 0.20, and the left eye is 0.15; f9 proband both eyes were 0.20. Fundus photographs of the right eye of the proband F1, F4 showed a typical macular region of oval atrophy, similar to the "bronze" appearance, characterized by a "bull's eyes" with a ring of yellowish white spots deposited around the atrophy around the upper and lower vascular arches (fig. 7: first column). The eyes of the proband F1 and the right eye fundus AF of the proband F4 are shown: the yellow spot area can see elliptical low fluorescence accompanied by a circle of uniform and homogeneous high fluorescence signal, which is corresponding to yellowish white lipofuscin spots, the background fluorescence is uniform, and AF is AF1 type; the fundus color photograph and AF of the left eye of the patient with the F4 probation are both 2 types, and the focus extends to the outside of the blood vessel arch ring. Except that the fundus color photographs of both eyes of the proband are different from the AF type of F4, the fundus and AF types of both sides of the other proband and the patient are identical. The STGD F10 patient began to develop symptoms at the age of 14, had good vision correction for both eyes at 0.5/0.4, and had fundus color photograph and AF of type 2. SD-OCT examinations of four groups of probands F1, F4, F9 and F10 all showed marked thinning of the neuroepithelial layer of the macular degeneration area, thinning of the ONL layer, interruption and disappearance of the macular region ellipsoid area (EZ) zone and outer limiting membrane (ELM) in the macular degeneration area, and the area where the interruption disappeared coincided with the abnormal AF area (fig. 7, 8). This cohort of probands (F1, F4, F9 and F10) showed normal FERG with clinically significant reduction or undetectable P-ERG, belonging to ERG1 type (fig. 9). The disease was graded as mild according to clinical presentation, and other patients in these families also exhibited a relatively mild STGD disease phenotype.
STGD F2, F3, F5, F6, F7 and F8 patients are all childhood STGD patients (age of onset ≤ 10 years). They complain of a decline in central vision at the age of 3-10 years. The patient was classified as severe. They reported poor vision (BCVA ≦ 0.10), reading and school difficulties. Probands F3 and F8 were least aged and were found to have poor vision at the ages of 3 and 5, respectively. The vision loss of the F3 proband was first discovered by his family at the age of 3, when he was watching television at a particularly close distance. At the time of 9 years old visit, the atrophic changes of the retina and choroid in the macular area of both eyes surpassed the vascular arch (type 2 fundus) in the macular area (fig. 7 and 8). The AF images showed local low fluorescence signals in the macula, extending to the anterior and nasal side of the vascular arch to the optic disc (AF 2 type) (fig. 7, 8). SD-OCT scans showed complete loss of EZ and ELM, mainly manifested by atrophic thinning of the retinal neuroepithelium, RPE, and underlying choroid. The P-ERG and photopic ERGs (LA 3.0 and LA 3.030hz) of F3 and F8 probands were undetectable, and the scotopic ERGs (DA 0.01 and DA 10.0) showed severe drop, belonging to ERG3 type (FIG. 9). There were numerous extensive atrophic changes in the retinal neuroepithelium, RPE of F2, F5, F6 and F7 probands, ranging beyond the vascular arch to the posterior pole (type 3 fundus) (fig. 7, 8). In addition, fundus photographs of F6 proband showed a very large amount of pigmentation behind the retina, easily confounding the diagnosis with RP, which we have previously reported. The AF image is 3 type (fig. 7 and 8). SD-OCT found macular retinal neuroepithelium and extensive RPE atrophy. F5 probands showed more severe neuroretinal thinning, degenerative atrophy of RPE and choriocapillaris on SD-OCT images (fig. 7, 8). F2, F5, F6 and F7 probands P-ERG and light and dark adaptation ERGs were all significantly reduced or undetectable, belonging to ERG3 type (fig. 9).
3. Screening for pathogenic mutations
Genome DNAs of ten pedigree probands (F1-II-2, F2-II-3, F3-II-1, F4-II-1, F5-II-1, F1-II-2, F2-II-3, F3-II-1, F4-II-1 and F5-II-1) are obtained by using a genome extraction kit, and target region capture is carried out by using specific primers of known HRD pathogenic genes, and amplification, library building and sequencing analysis are carried out.
And analyzing 103 the variation conditions of the genes of the exon region, the boundary region of the exon and the intron and the non-coding region at the 5 'end and the 3' end of the known HRD pathogenic gene according to the sequencing result, and performing high-throughput capture sequencing on the target sequence. The coverage rate of the target sequence achieved by sequencing is more than 98.5%, the coverage rate of the target region after more than 10 times of reading is 90.0-92.7%, and the average coverage rate after more than 20 times of reading is 81.9-86.0%. The 100% exon base pair coverage depth is more than 200 x.
We first screened SNVs and INDEL information in raw sequencing data captured at the target region, and then screened biallelic mutations that fit the ARI inheritance rules for further analysis. Finally, the result is compared with the database such as dbSNP 132, HapMap Project, 1000Genome Project, YH database, etc., to eliminate the known pathogenic gene mutation and screen out the possible pathogenic mutation. All selected mutation sites need to be checked by Sanger sequencing to eliminate false positives, and whether cosegregation characteristics are shown in family members is checked.
4. Determination of possible pathogenic mutations in the STGD pedigree ABCA4 Gene
By adopting target sequence capture and NGS technology of specific genes and Sanger sequencing verification and mutation and clinical phenotype coseparation verification, 417 pathogenic mutations of the gene ABCA are found in an STGD family, wherein 5 of the pathogenic mutations are new mutations found for the first time in the research: c.371delG, c.6788G > A, c.681T > G, c.5509C > T and EX37 del. The nonsense mutation c.6118c > T was detected simultaneously in two STGD families, of which two were detected as homozygous mutations. The causative mutations are summarized in Table 1.
Of the 17 mutations identified, 5 were reported for the first time, 2 of them were truncation mutations, which resulted in premature termination of the amino acid translation process during mRNA translation, resulting in disruption of protein structure and function. The other is large fragment deletion mutation, which is confirmed by RT-qPCR (figure 10), and the primer sequence is shown as SEQ ID NO: 4 and SEQ ID NO: 5. The large fragment heterozygosis deletion (EX37del) of the STGD-Family 537 exon is carried out, qPCR verification is carried out on the No. 37 exon, and the result shows that the expression quantity of mRNA of the paternal No. 37 exon of the proband and the proband is obviously lower than that of a normal control, and the difference has statistical significance (p is less than 0.01); the expression level of exon 37 mRNA of proband mother is not different from that of normal control, and has no statistical significance (p > 0.05). The remaining two missense mutations were predicted to be pathogenic according to our previous four pathogenicity prediction criteria.
In STGD F1, two complex heterozygous mutations associated with the disease were detected: mutation c.6190g > a and splicing mutation c.1937+1G > a. Missense mutation c.6190g > a at exon 45 resulted in the substitution of threonine for alanine at codon 2064 (p.ala2064thr), reported in chinese and estonia populations. In F2, two compound heterozygote mutations of c.2424C > G and c.1761-2A > G were detected in proband (F2-II-3). The nonsense mutation c.2424c > G is located in exon 16, and tyrosine was replaced by a stop codon (p.tyr808ter) at codon 808, resulting in premature termination of the amino acid coding of the ABCA4 gene. In F3, proband (F3-II-2) detected two compound heterozygous mutations c.371delG and c.6118C > T. The new mutation c.371delg, in which 30 wrong amino acids were inserted after the substitution of arginine by leucine at codon 124, resulted in the premature termination of ABCA4 coding and translation (p.arg124leufsx30). Another nonsense mutation, c.6118c > T, has been reported to replace arginine at exon 44 codon 2040 with a stop codon (p.arg2040ter), resulting in premature termination of the amino acid coding. In F4, two reported mutations, c.6118C > T and c.3385C > T, were found in the proband (F4-II-1). The nonsense mutation c.6118c > T was detected twice in this study. The missense mutation c.3385c > T is located at exon 23 codon 1129 with cystine replacing arginine (p.arg 1129cys).
In F5, a large fragment deletion of exon 37 (EX37del) was detected in proband (F5-II-1). The other is an insertion mutation at the position of exon 30, cytosine (C) is inserted in the positions 4537 and 4538 (c.4537 — 4538insC), which results in the frame shift of the codon, glutamine is mutated to proline at the 1513 position of the codon, and the amino acid coding is terminated early after 41 mis-translated amino acids are inserted after proline, resulting in protein truncation (p.gln1513profsx41), which is reported in the literature. In F6, the homozygote missense mutation c.1924t > a was detected, which we have previously reported. In F7, proband F7-II-2 carries the homozygous splicing mutation c.6816+1G > A, also reported in STGD patients in China. F8 detected two mutations that could be related to the disease, a new missense mutation at exon 49 c.6788G > A and a reported missense mutation at exon 37 c.5300T > C. Two mutations c.10695t > a and c.449t > G were detected by F9. c.10695t > a is a missense mutation reported in exon 42, with a glutamic acid substituted for glycine at codon 1961 (p.g 1961e). c.449T > G is a newly reported mutation in this study, with the tyrosine replaced by a stop codon at codon 227 (p.Y227Ter) and the amino acid encoding a premature stop. In F10, two missense mutations c.6563t > C and c.5509c > T led to the development of this family disease.
5. Association analysis of Stargardt disease gene mutation and clinical phenotypic characteristics
As mentioned above, Null variants refer to splicing mutations that lead to mRNA splicing errors or truncation mutations that lead to premature termination of the translation process of amino acids during translation of mRNA. Such mutations result in premature termination of the amino acid coding, thereby producing truncated proteins. However, studies have shown that such truncated proteins are virtually absent in vivo, because such mutations mediate mRNA degradation (NMD), block mRNA degradation, and increase the expression level of the mRNA of the mutant gene, but still cannot synthesize the truncated protein, and in combination with blocking protein degradation, the protein cannot be synthesized and expressed. Truncation mutations can result in complete loss of function of the protein, and thus are highly pathogenic. It is generally accepted that two mutations of a gene are independent and overlapping in pathogenicity, and therefore both mutations should be considered simultaneously in analyzing the degree of pathogenicity of the mutation. In this study, children-onset Stargardt patients (F2, F3, F5, F6, F7, and F8) had a more severe clinical phenotype, characterized by early severe visual function loss, and destruction of retinal cone rod function; on the contrary, in the adult-onset Stargardt patients (F1, F4, and F9), visual function was well preserved, and in addition to the destruction of the photoreceptor function in the macular region, the whole retinal cone rod cell function was also well preserved. In addition, childhood onset of Stargardt is predominantly present in the severe forms of ABCA4 genotype: both mutations were null varients (F2, F3, F5 and F7) or homozygous (F6). However, the adult onset STGD (F1, F4 and F9) genotype was among the missense mutations + null variant, indicating that a portion of ABCA4 protein function was preserved. The F8 genotype is two missense mutations, but the clinical phenotype is severe, which indicates that partial missense mutations can also cause severe damage to the function of the protein.
