Description

ECL detection method for nucleic acid specific site modification, ECL nano beacon, preparation method thereof and kit
Technical Field
The invention relates to an electrochemical luminescence (ECL) detection method based on nucleic acid specific site modification of a nano beacon, an ECL nano beacon used in the ECL detection method, a preparation method thereof and a kit used in the ECL detection method.
Background
There are numerous chemical modifications in nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, which dynamically regulate gene expression as a regulatory mechanism without altering the nucleic acid sequence.
DNA methylation (DNA methylation) is a type of apparent modification which occurs at the carbon atom at position 5 of cytosine and is stably inherited, and is widely found in animal and plant genomes. DNA methylation is widely involved in a variety of physiological processes during mammalian growth and development, including gene silencing, gene imprinting (genomic imprinting), X-chromosome inactivation, and the occurrence of diseases.
Part of the tumor is accompanied by the hypermethylation event of a specific gene, and the local hypermethylation event of the gene occurs earlier than the malignant hyperplasia of cells, so that the detection of the methylation level of the specific gene can be used as one of important bases for early prediction and diagnosis of the tumor. For example, early colorectal cancer (CRC) screening detection is based on epigenetic biomarkers, and FDA has approved early screening and auxiliary diagnosis of CRC by detecting an increase in CpG methylation of a specific gene promoter (see non-patent document 1). In addition, cancer suppressor genes which undergo hypermethylation are different from one tumor type, and for example, cancer suppressor genes RASSF1A, BRCA, APC, CDKN2A and the like are in a hypermethylated state in ovarian cancer, and cancer suppressor genes PCDHB15, WBSCR17, IGF1, GYPC and the like are in a hypermethylated state in breast cancer (see non-patent document 2). By detecting the methylation level of the specific cancer suppressor genes, not only can the screening and diagnosis of specific tumors be enhanced, but also the evaluation of the targeted treatment effect of the tumors and the prognosis observation can be facilitated.
The standard method of DNA methylation detection is currently bisulfite treatment, specifically, the conversion of cytosine (C) in DNA to uracil (U) is achieved by treating the DNA with bisulfite, e.g., sodium bisulfite, but the methylation of 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) remains unchanged, whereby 5-mC is distinguishable from C by subsequent PCR or sequencing, thereby allowing detection of methylated DNA.
However, bisulfite treatment requires nucleic acid pretreatment under stringent chemical and temperature conditions, and the PCR or sequencing detection operation is complicated, requiring specialized technicians and specialized equipment, making the detection method inefficient, time consuming, and costly. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop simple, rapid, sensitive methods for detecting methylated DNA.
Recently, a methylated DNA detection method based on specific antibody recognition of a methylation site has attracted attention. Such detection methods do not require nucleic acid pretreatment, and can be used for electrochemical (for example, non-patent document 3), fluorescence, etc. detection by labeling different beacons with specific antibodies.
ECL technology developed in recent years has been widely used in bioassays, such as tumor protein marker detection (for example, non-patent document 4). ECL technology is a method of initiating specific luminescence by electrochemical reaction to produce excited states on the surface of an electrode using electrochemical principles. Because ECL is electroluminescence, compared with fluorescence, the ECL does not need to be externally added with an excitation light source and has no influence of photobleaching, light interference and the like, and therefore, the ECL has the advantages of simple equipment, low cost, low background signal, high detection sensitivity and the like.
However, to date, there is no viable and satisfactory ECL detection method for nucleic acid-specific site modification detection in the prior art.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a detection flow of the electrochemiluminescence detection method of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the ECL detection method of the present invention uses a reagent 1, a reagent 2, and a reagent 3.
Wherein the reaction reagent 1 is a magnetic particle modified with a capture nucleic acid designed for a target nucleic acid having a nucleic acid sequence complementary to the target nucleic acid, both of which are capable of stable specific hybridization. The capture nucleic acid can be synthesized by a method conventional in the art, or can be directly used as a commercially available product.

As shown in fig. 2, the capture nucleic acid sequence may be modified at the end with biotin, and the magnetic particles may be bound with streptavidin, and the capture nucleic acid may be modified on the magnetic particles by a biotin-streptavidin reaction. The streptavidin-conjugated magnetic microparticles (hereinafter also referred to as S-MBs) can be synthesized by a method conventional in the art, or can be directly used as a commercially available product. The biotin-streptavidin binding method is the most commonly used method in the art, but the binding method of the capture nucleic acid to the magnetic microparticles is not limited to this, and any method capable of binding the capture nucleic acid to the magnetic microparticles may be used.
The reagent 2 is a specific antibody (hereinafter also referred to as a primary antibody) modified at a specific site with respect to the target nucleic acid, and the antibody can be prepared by a conventional antibody preparation method in the art according to the specific site modification, or can be used as it is. The primary antibody is, for example, an antibody against methylated cytosine (5 mC) or hydroxymethylcytosine (5 hmC) of DNA.
The reactant 3 is the electrochemiluminescence nano beacon prepared in the invention, namely the metal doped inorganic oxide nano particle modified by the secondary antibody.
One embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for producing an electrochemiluminescence nanobeacon (hereinafter also referred to as ECL nanobeacon), comprising the steps of:
doping metal complex ions onto the inorganic oxide nano particles to obtain metal doped inorganic oxide nano particles; and
and binding the secondary antibody to the metal-doped inorganic oxide nano-particles to obtain the metal-doped inorganic oxide nano-particles modified by the secondary antibody, wherein the secondary antibody recognizes the specific antibody modified by the specific site of the nucleic acid.
The ECL nano beacon is prepared by using a nano material as a carrier, and the nano material has a huge surface area or a porous structure, so that a large number of luminophores can be loaded for hypersensitive detection. The nanomaterial used in the present invention is preferably an inorganic oxide nanoparticle from the viewpoints of high stability, low cost, and easy modification. Specific examples of the inorganic oxide nanoparticles include silica nanoparticles, titania nanoparticles, zinc oxide nanoparticles, ferrite nanoparticles, and nanoparticles having surfaces coated with silica, titania, zinc oxide, ferrite, or the like, and among these, silica nanoparticles are more preferable.
The preparation method of the ECL nano beacon comprises the step of doping metal complex ions onto inorganic oxide nano particles.

Specific examples of the bonding method constituting the covalent bond include carboxyl-amino bonding and aldehyde-amino bonding. The reaction for carrying out covalent bonding is not particularly limited, and a covalent reaction that can react at room temperature and is rapid and efficient in bonding is preferable.
FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing a method for producing the reactant 3 of the present invention. In FIG. 3, the ion (Ru (bpy) is represented as a tris (bipyridine) ruthenium (II) complex 3 2+ ) For example, the binding of the secondary antibody (hereinafter also referred to as Ab 2) to the metal-doped inorganic oxide nanoparticles was performed using the EDC/NHS system (1- (3-dimethylaminopropyl) -3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride)/N-hydroxysuccinimide system). Specifically, ru (bpy) 3 2+ Doped on the silica nanoparticles to obtain ruthenium doped silica nanoparticles (hereinafter also referred to as Ru@SiO 2 ) The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the Then Ru@SiO 2 Carboxylation to form ruthenium carboxylation doped silica nanoparticles (also referred to as COOH-Ru@SiO hereinafter 2 ). Then, the secondary antibody was bound to COOH-Ru@SiO using EDC/NHS system 2 The second antibody-modified ruthenium-doped silica nanoparticle (hereinafter also referred to as Ab 2-Ru@SiO) 2 )。
In the ECL nano beacon, a large amount of metal complex ions can be combined on every 1 nano particle, so that an electrochemical signal can be remarkably amplified, and the sensitivity of ECL detection can be greatly improved.
In addition, in the ECL nano-beacon, a plurality of secondary antibody molecules can be combined on each 1 nano-particle, so that the combination efficiency of the nano-beacon and the primary antibody can be improved.
Therefore, by using the ECL nano-beacon provided by the invention, the sensitivity of ECL detection can be greatly improved, and the detection of nucleic acid specific site modification can even reach fM level.
The secondary antibodies of the present invention recognize the nucleic acid-specific site-modified primary antibody, which is preferably not designed for the specific portion of the primary antibody to which the nucleic acid-specific site modification binds, but for the universal portion of the primary antibody. That is, the secondary antibody of the present invention is preferably a protein recognizing against a general moiety of the primary antibody, and thus the present invention can provide a general ECL nanobeacon for various antibody-based ECL detection methods. The secondary antibody is not particularly limited, and may be prepared by a method of preparing an antibody which is conventional in the art, or may be used as it is.
Thus, an embodiment of the present invention also provides an ECL nanobeacon prepared by the above-described method for preparing an ECL nanobeacon of the present invention, wherein preferably the ECL nanobeacon of the present invention is a universal ECL nanobeacon of an antibody-based ECL detection method.
The ECL nanobeacons prepared in the present invention have excellent storage stability, and can be stored for 10 days or more under normal temperature storage conditions, for example, and therefore, the ECL nanobeacons of the present invention can be used as they are after preparation or can be used as needed after storage for a suitable period of time.
Thus, one embodiment of the present invention also provides a kit for an antibody-based electrochemiluminescence detection method comprising the ECL nanobeacon of the invention described above.
The kit may contain various reagents required for the purpose of use, for example, reagents 1 and 2, instructions for use, and the like, in addition to the ECL nanobeacon of the present invention.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the ECL detection method of the present invention may include the following steps 1 to 4.
Step 1: the reaction reagent 1 (for example, S-MBs/B-Cap) is mixed with a sample to be detected (for example, target DNA) to perform recognition and capture on target nucleic acid in the sample. The sequence of the capture nucleic acid (e.g., capture DNA) bound on the B-Cap is designed to be complementary to the target DNA sequence, so that it can bind to the target nucleic acid by hybridization after the sample to be tested is added, thereby capturing the target DNA to the magnetic particles.
Wherein, after the target DNA is identified by S-MBs/B-Cap, the reaction system can be blocked to prevent nonspecific adsorption of immunological reagents, and the blocking can be performed by using heterologous proteins or detergents, such as Tween-20, BSA, animal serum, skimmed milk powder, etc., preferably BSA.
Step 2: the target DNA is subjected to capture labelling by adding a reagent 2 (e.g., ab-5 mC). The primary antibody as the reaction reagent 2 is designed for a specific antibody of a specific site modification of a nucleic acid, and is capable of recognizing the specific site modification on a target nucleic acid, thereby enabling capture labeling of the specific site modification of the target nucleic acid to form a magnetic particle-capture DNA-target DNA-Ab-5mC complex, for example.
Among them, from the viewpoint of obtaining a higher ECL signal intensity, the primary antibody concentration, the incubation time after the primary antibody addition, and the like are preferably optimized. The primary antibody concentration is, for example, 1.0. Mu.g/mL or more, specifically 2.0. Mu.g/mL or more, 2.5. Mu.g/mL or more, 5. Mu.g/mL or more, 10. Mu.g/mL or more, 20. Mu.g/mL or more, and the like, and among these, 2.5. Mu.g/mL to 20. Mu.g/mL is preferable. The incubation time for the primary antibody is, for example, 5 to 80 minutes, specifically 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 minutes, and preferably 20 to 40 minutes.
And step 3: adding reagent 3 (e.g. Ab2-Ru@SiO 2 ) The target DNA is labeled with a detection signal. The secondary antibody bound to the reagent 3 can specifically bind to the primary antibody in the complex formed in the step 2, thereby labeling the complex with a detection signal to form, for example, magnetic microparticles-capturing DNA-target DNa-Ab-5mC-Ab2-Ru@SiO 2 Is a complex of (a) and (b).
Among them, from the viewpoint of obtaining a higher ECL signal intensity, optimization of ECL nanobeacon concentration, incubation time after ECL nanobeacon addition, and the like is preferable. The concentration of the ECL nanobeacon is, for example, 1. Mu.g/mL or more, specifically 3. Mu.g/mL or more, 4. Mu.g/mL or more, 6. Mu.g/mL or more, 9. Mu.g/mL or more, 12. Mu.g/mL or more, 15.
