Description

Method for detecting SARS-CoV-269: 70del site
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of molecular diagnosis, and particularly relates to a CRISPR-Cas13a system for detecting SARS-CoV-269: 70del sites and crRNA used by the system.
Background
COVID-19 is a disease caused by Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Over time, SARS-CoV-2 developed a number of new Variants (VOCs) of interest. The B.1.1.7 lineage (VOC 202012/01, 501 Y.V1) which first appeared in southern England is characterized by 17 mutations, including 14 amino acid substitutions and 3 in-frame deletions located in ORF 1 a/b, ORF8, spike (S) and N gene region 2. While 69:70del located in the S gene region has proven to be of potential biological interest. 69:70del is a histidine (h 69) at position 69 and a valine (v 70) deletion mutation at position 70 in the n-terminal domain (ntd) of SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein (S protein), and 69:70del can cause the S protein S1 subunit to be changed in conformation. Studies have shown that 69:70del occurs mainly with the mutation sites responsible for immune escape, enhancing the cellular infectivity of the virus. Furthermore, based on the current monitoring data 69:70del often occurs simultaneously with the mutations N501Y, N439K and Y453F located in the S protein. Research has proved that the infection power of 69:70del B.1.1.7 virus variant strain to cell is obviously enhanced by simulating amino acid mutation of S protein of B.1.1.7 variant strain with pseudovirus. Studies have shown that the mechanism by which 69:70del enhances viral infectivity is probably achieved by increasing the S protein density on the surface of the virion. At present, there are two main methods for detecting SARS-CoV-2 variant. The first method, which is currently mainly used, is a gene sequencing method, which mainly includes first-generation sequencing and next-generation sequencing. While this technique is important for identifying new variations and enables the tracking of VOCs in real time, it is time consuming and requires extensive data analysis and cannot be performed in all laboratories. Other detection methods are mainly based on RT-qPCR, and although faster than gene sequencing methods, the sample processing is complex and the requirement on the precision of the instrument is high.
In 2017, in4 months, U.S. researchers established a nucleic acid detection technology with Sensitivity reaching the attorney level (single copy) and specificity reaching the single base, namely a nucleic acid detection platform SHEERLOCK (specific High Sensitivity enzyme Reporter UnLOCKing) based on CRISPR-Cas13a, and by utilizing the non-specific cleavage activity of Leptotriia wadei Cas13a protein (LwCas 13 a) and combining a recombinant Polymerase Amplification technology (Recombinase Polymerase Amplification, RPA) capable of efficiently amplifying a target fragment, the rapid, cheap and High-Sensitivity detection of trace nucleic acid is realized. Studies have shown that Cas13a can be used for identification of zika and dengue viruses in biological samples (blood or urine) and further to distinguish gene sequences of african and american strains, and also for identification of specific types of bacteria. After virus or bacterial nucleic acid is identified, the specific crRNA can be directly used for pathogen typing, a large amount of complex upstream experiment work is avoided due to the ultrahigh sensitivity, a biological sample can be directly amplified for detection, and the pretreatment process of the sample is shortened. Therefore, the technology has great application prospect in the fields of basic research, diagnosis and treatment.

Example 3 specificity and sensitivity detection of SARS-CoV-269: 70del and wild crRNA
1. Optimal screening of SARS-CoV-269: 70del crRNA
In order to screen crRNA with higher detection sensitivity and shorter detection time, PCR amplification is carried out by using the wild type constructed as described above, the 69:70del mutant ssRNA and the designed primers 6970-Primer 1-F and 6970-Primer 1-R. And 4 kinds of Mut6970-crRNA are used to detect ssRNA of 2 sequences respectively.
(1) Synthesis of crRNA primer sequences
The sequences in table 1 were synthesized, and crRNA was synthesized and prepared as in step 1 of example 1.
(2) The mutant RNA template and the wild type RNA template obtained in step 3 of example 1 were respectively diluted in a gradient manner to obtain RNA solutions containing 69:70del gene fragments with different concentrations and 69:70 wild gene fragments with different concentrations, which were 10 in order5 copies/µL、104copies/µL、103copies/µL、102copies/µL、101copies/µL、100copies/µL、10-1copies/µL。
(3) PCR amplification was carried out according to the method of step 1 in example 2 to obtain a PCR amplification product.
(4) After the step (3) is completed, 5 muL of amplification product is taken, different crRNAs are utilized to detect SARS-CoV-269: 70del locus and wild type nucleic acid according to the method of the step 2 in the example 2, and ddH is set at the same time2The amplification product with O as the template served as a negative control.
The detection result shows that the fluorescence value detected by the Mut6970-crRNA2 is higher than that detected by other 3 crRNAs when the same concentration of 69:70del RNA and wild-type RNA are used as detection templates (see figure 2), but 4 crRNAs, namely the Mut6970-crRNA1, the Mut6970-crRNA2, the Mut6970-crRNA3 and the Mut6970-crRNA4 have higher significant difference when the wild-type RNA template and the 69:70del RNA template (namely the mutant RNA template) are distinguished, so that the optimal crRNA cannot be directly selected.
Then, different concentrations of 68:70delRNA after gradient dilution were used as templates for the detection of different crRNA sensitivities. The detection result shows that (see figure 3), the detection sensitivity of the Mut6970-crRNA1 can reach 100The detection sensitivity of copes/mu L, while the detection sensitivity of Mut6970-crRNA2, Mut6970-crRNA3 and Mut6970-crRNA4 can only reach 101copies/μ L. Because the sensitivity and the detection efficiency of the Mut6970-crRNA1 are high, the Mut6970-crRNA1 is used as the first-choice crRNA for SARS-CoV-269: 70del locus detection.
2. SARS-CoV-269: 70 wild-type optimal crRNA screening
In order to screen crRNA with higher detection sensitivity and shorter detection time, PCR amplification is carried out by using the wild type constructed as described above, the 69:70del mutant ssRNA and the designed primers 6970-Primer 1-F and 6970-Primer 1-R. And 4 kinds of Wt6970-crRNA are used to detect ssRNA of 2 sequences respectively.

The sequences in table 1 were synthesized, and crRNA was synthesized and prepared as in step 1 of example 1.
(2) The mutant RNA template and the wild type RNA template obtained in step 3 of example 1 were respectively subjected to gradient dilution to obtain RNA solutions containing 69:70del gene fragments with different concentrations and 69:70 wild gene fragments with different concentrations, which were 10 in order5 copies/µL、104copies/µL、103copies/µL、102copies/µL、101copies/µL、100copies/µL。
(3) PCR amplification was carried out according to the method of step 1 in example 2 to obtain a PCR amplification product.
(4) After the step (3) is completed, 5 muL of amplification product is taken, different crRNAs are utilized to detect SARS-CoV-269: 70del locus and wild type nucleic acid according to the method of the step 2 in the example 2, and ddH is set at the same time2The amplification product with O as the template served as a negative control.
The detection result shows (see fig. 4), when 69:70del RNA and wild type RNA with the same concentration are used as detection templates, the fluorescence value detected by Wt6970-crRNA3 is higher than that detected by other 3 crRNAs, but 4 crRNAs, namely Wt6970-crRNA1, Wt6970-crRNA2, Wt6970-crRNA3 and Wt6970-crRNA4, have higher significant difference when the wild type templates and the 69:70del RNA templates are distinguished, so that optimal crRNA cannot be directly selected.
Different crRNA sensitivity assays were then performed using different concentrations of 68:70 wild-type RNA after gradient dilution as template. The detection result shows that the detection sensitivity of Wt6970-crRNA2 can reach 10 (see figure 5)1The sensitivity of detection of copies/mu L, Wt6970-crRNA1, Wt6970-crRNA3 and Wt6970-crRNA4 can only reach 102copies/μ L. Due to the fact thatWt6970-crRNA2 has high sensitivity and specificity, so Wt6970-crRNA2 is used as the first choice crRNA for SARS-CoV-269: 70 wild-type locus detection.
Example 4 sensitivity detection of the method of the invention
The two sets of RNA template standards obtained in step 3 in example 1 were respectively subjected to gradient dilution to obtain RNA solutions containing different concentrations of 69:70del gene fragments and different concentrations of 69:70 wild gene fragments, and Mut6970-crRNA1 and Wt6970-crRNA2 were respectively used for detection, so as to detect the sensitivity of the method of the present invention. The method comprises the following specific steps:
1. the mutant RNA template and the wild type RNA template obtained in step 3 of example 1 were subjected to gradient dilution to obtain template standard solutions containing SARS-CoV-269: 70del site gene fragments of different concentrations and wild type gene fragments of different concentrations 69:70, the concentrations being 10 in order5copies/µL、104copies/µL、103copies/µL、102copies/µL、101copies/µL、100copies/µL。
2. PCR amplification was carried out according to the method of step 1 in example 2 to obtain a PCR amplification product.
3. After the step 2 is completed, taking 5 mu L of amplification product to detect SARS-CoV-269: 70del locus and wild type locus nucleic acid based on PCR-CRISPR/Cas13a system according to the method of the step 2 in the example 2, and setting ddH at the same time2The amplification product with O as the template served as a negative control.
The results of the PCR-CRISPR assay showed (see FIG. 6): the SARS-CoV-269: 70 wild-type template detected by Mut6970-crRNA1 has good specificity, no fluorescence signal is detected, while the SARS-CoV-269: 70 wild-type template detected by Mut6970-crRNA1 has fluorescence signal of 105-100The copies/mu L concentration is continuously reduced, but the copies/mu L concentration is obviously different from the wild template detection, so that SARS-CoV-269: 70del locus can be specifically detected by using Mut6970-crRNA1, and the sensitivity reaches single copy (1 copy/mu L); the PCR-CRISPR detection result shows (see figure 7), the SARS-CoV-269: 70del template is detected by using Wt6970-crRNA2, no fluorescence signal is detected, and SA is detected by using Wt6970-crRNA2RS-CoV-269:70 wild-type template, which is at 105-101 Under the copies/mu L concentration, the specificity difference is provided with the 69:70del template detection, so that the specific detection of SARS-CoV-269: 70 wild type locus by using Wt6970-crRNA2 can be realized, and the sensitivity reaches 101copy/µL。
