Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of metal ion imaging, relates to a TNA molecule-based intracellular magnesium ion imaging method, and particularly relates to a method for in-vitro screening of TNA molecules capable of cutting RNA for intracellular magnesium ion imaging.
Background
Magnesium ion is the most abundant divalent cation in mammals and has wide biological effects. Magnesium ions exert important biological functions such as functional metabolism, signal transduction, and structural composition through interactions with proteins, nucleic acids, or membrane structures within cells, and thus imaging and detection of magnesium ions within cells is very important. Since natural nucleic acids have been widely studied in the field of metal ligands, there have been studies on the in vitro screening method to obtain dnase capable of specifically cleaving RNA under the activation of metal ions, and since 8-17 deoxyribose nucleic acid obtained by screening is more active than magnesium ions under the activation of zinc ions and lead ions, 8-17 is used for detecting lead ions in the environment as well as zinc ions in cells. Since natural nucleic acids are susceptible to nuclease degradation within cells, no natural ribozyme is currently available for direct detection of intracellular magnesium ions. Threose Nucleic Acid (TNA) is an RNA analogue that forms a stable duplex with DNA or RNA while being capable of storing and transmitting genetic information. Because of its simple chemical structure and different monomer connection mode from natural nucleic acid, it is more resistant to degradation of nuclease and can be used in cell environment.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to: the invention aims to provide a method for imaging intracellular magnesium ions based on Threose Nucleic Acid (TNA) molecules, in particular to a method for in vitro screening of TNA enzyme capable of cutting RNA for imaging intracellular magnesium ions.
The technical scheme is as follows: the invention relates to a TNA molecule-based intracellular magnesium ion imaging method, which comprises the following steps:
(1) Screening magnesium ion-dependent TNA molecules with RNA cleavage activity in vitro;
the specific operation method is as follows:
firstly, synthesizing an initial DNA molecule random library and a primer, and then performing circular screening; in each round of screening, a TNA library is obtained by adopting a primer extension method;
then, separating by streptavidin to obtain a single-chain library containing RNA substrate and TNA molecules, incubating the library in a buffer solution containing magnesium ions, and under the catalysis of the TNA molecules, the TNA molecules with cleavage activity catalyze the substrate to break, so that the TNA molecules are eluted from the magnetic beads;
finally, the eluted TNA molecules are subjected to reverse transcription and PCR amplification to obtain an enriched DNA molecule library, and the enriched DNA molecule library is applied to the next round of screening; repeating the screening for multiple rounds, gradually increasing the screening pressure, reducing the concentration of magnesium ions from 20mM to 1mM, and reducing the incubation time from 18 hours to 1 hour to obtain TNA molecules with high activity (sequencing the enriched DNA molecules and deducing the sequence information of the TNA molecules according to the sequencing result; finally preparing single-chain TNA molecules, testing the catalytic activity of the single-chain TNA molecules in the presence of magnesium ions, wherein TNA molecules with RNA cleavage activity are threose ribozymes);
selecting TNA molecules with highest activity for biochemical characterization;
the specific contents are as follows: firstly, adding different divalent metal ions into a buffer solution, and testing the selectivity of TNA molecules to the metal ions; then adding magnesium ions with different concentrations into the buffer solution, and testing the change of the catalytic activity of TNA molecules along with the concentration of the magnesium ions; then testing the influence of different pH values on the reaction kinetic parameters; finally, the first order reaction kinetic constants, and the Mi constants, of TNA molecules were tested;

(A) Synthesizing a random library of initial DNA molecules and upstream and downstream primers;
(B) Taking a DNA molecule random library, and carrying out primer extension and chain separation by taking tC, tT, tG and tA nucleoside triphosphates as substrates to obtain a non-natural nucleic acid library;
(C) Incubating the non-natural nucleic acid library solution in a buffer solution containing magnesium ions at a pH of 7.5,37 ℃ and collecting an eluent;
(D) Performing reverse transcription reaction by taking the eluent as a template;
(E) The reverse transcription product is used as a template, after 19-25 cycles of PCR amplification, single chains are separated, and an enriched library obtained by the screening of the round is obtained and can be used for the next round of screening;
(F) Repeating steps (B) - (E);
(G) After 17 rounds of screening, connecting the PCR amplification products obtained in the last round of screening with the carrier, and sequencing colonies containing the successfully connected carrier;
(H) Deducing sequence information of TNA molecules according to a sequencing result, and preparing single-chain TNA molecules through polymerase extension reaction, chain separation and snake venom phosphodiesterase treatment;
(I) Testing the cleavage activity of TNA molecules on RNA substrates under the activation of magnesium ions by using an electrophoresis method to obtain a plurality of TNA molecules with catalytic activity;

the construction of the magnesium ion fluorescence sensor specifically comprises the following steps:
firstly, respectively marking a fluorescent group FAM and a quenching group BHQ-1 on the 5 'end and the 3' end of an RNA substrate;
then, annealing the RNA substrate and TNA molecules to form a complex; adding buffer solution into the complex for incubation, and quenching fluorescence when magnesium ions are not present; when magnesium ions exist, TNA molecules catalyze RNA substrates to break, fluorescent groups are released, and fluorescent signals are recovered;
verifying the performance of the fluorescence sensor in an in vitro buffer; the concrete steps are as follows:
when the magnesium ion concentration is less than 20mM, the fluorescence signal intensity of the system and the magnesium ion concentration show a linear relation, and the detection limit is 0.35mM;
(3) Transfecting the sensor into a cell for imaging magnesium ions in vivo; the method comprises the following steps:
firstly, transfecting a fluorescence sensor into cells by using a transfection reagent Lipofectamine 3000;
then, using a calcium ion carrier to transport magnesium ions in the culture medium into cells;
finally, imaging the cells after incubation by using a confocal microscope;
the performance of the catalyst is as follows:
