Description

I- ::2!:3 'D ED -el C51 1 - METHOD FOR ASSAYING NUCLEIC ACIDS USING
NAPHTHOL AS DERIVATIVE PHOSPHATE
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION FIELD OF THE INVENTION
1 The present invention relates to a method for assaying nucleic acids which can efficiently detect nucleic acids, etc. by fluorescence. RELATED ART In medical and biological fields, a means for labeling, for example, a DNA (or RNA) probe with a radioactive isotope, hybridizing the labeled Probe with a target nucleic acid and then detecting the target nucleic acid by autoradiography has been currently performed widely.
However, the isotope method involves many drawbacs which are serious obstacles to application and development of this technology, The drawbacks of the isotope method are as follows.
(a) In nucleic acid hybridization, the method lacks any spatial resolution sufficient to reveal relative positional relationship between contiguous signal.
(b) Experimental procedures using isotopescan only 2 be carried out in isotope laboratories equipped with special facilities. This is a cause for hindering application of the hybridization method espdcially to clinical inspection.
(c) Use of isotopesis dangerous for laboratory workers-even in laboratories. in addition, a danger for ordinary people also always exists because of wastes, etc.
(d) A long time (several weeks to several months) may be required for detection, so application to rapid clinical diagnostication is difficult.
(e) Radioactivity decays with a definite half-life period so that experiments should be scheduled to fit a purchase date of isotope. If the schedule chart is slightly altered, there would be a danger of wasting isotope or experimental results in a large scale.
(f) In order to enhance detection sensitivity, it is required to incorporate radioactivity to a nucleic acid probe as high as possible. However, the nucleic acid labeled enough to increase its radioactivity easily suffers from radioactive disintegration.
(g) In general, isotope is extremely expensive and it is not unusual to use isotope worth several hundred yen in one run. This prevents general spread of the hybridization method.
In view of such background, some DNA or RNA labeling methods in place of radioactive isotope have been developed so far. For example, BLU GENE KIT commercially available from Besesda Research Laboratories
Inc. (BRL Inc.) is known. Furthermore, "Nucleic acid probe and use thereof" is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 60226888.
However, these techniques merely eliminate a part of the drawbacks described above. In particular, detection sensitivity is not comparable to that of the isotope method.
That is, in the above labeling, the detection sensitivity is,10-12 g DNA" and slightly inferior to "10-13 g DNA" in the isotope method.
In view of such problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for assaying nucleic acids which solves the drawbacks of safety precautions, etc. in the isotope method and provides excellent detection sensitivity.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides a method for assaying nucleic acids or the like which comprises binding phosphatase to a sample such as nucleic acids, etc., reacting the phosphatase with a naphthol AS derivative phosphate, then irradiating the reaction products with an excited light and detecting fluorescence emitting therefrom.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
It is most notable in the present invention to use a naphthol AS derivative phosphate to which phosphatase is bound and to detect fluorescence emitted by an excited light.
1 Examples of the phosphatase include alkali phosphatase, acid phosphatase, etc.
The detection of a sample in the present invention includes detection of nucleic acid (DNA or RNA), detection of protein, immunological detection of a chemical compound using antibody, etc.
An example of the naphthol AS derivative phosphate includes the basic skeleton shown by Formula [I].
Formula [ 11 0 11 0 P (0 H) 2 CnCONH-X In Formula [I] described above, X represents on of the following formulae.
CH3 -0, CH3 CH3 -. CH3 OCH3 OCH3 a i j - 5 OCH3 -c OCH,3 OCH3 -0 OCH3 OCH3 N COCH3 -co CH,3 - - -CH3 CH3 3 -GCH=CHOCH's 6 For preparing the naphthol AS derivative phosphate, there are, for example, a process explained below.
The process for preparing a naphthol AS derivative phosphate, which comprises boiling 2-hydroxy-3-naphthoic acid shown by:
OH L,CWH and arylamino derivative with phosphorus trichloride in the presence of toluene or xylene to give a naphthol AS derivative shown by the formula:
Formula II 01 OH CCONH-X (wherein X represents the same as in the Formula [I]), and then reacting the naphthol AS derivative with phosphorus oxychloride in pyridine.
In the method for assay in accordance with the present invention, the naphthol AS derivative phosphate is reacted with the phosphatase described above followed by irradiating with an excited light, whereby the dephosphating product of the naphthol AS derivative phosphate emits fluorescence. Then, the emitted fluorescence can be detected.
i 1 1 j The aforesaid naphthol AS derivative phosphate is reacted with the phosphatase combined with a sample (e.g. nucleic acids) on a membrane filter made of nylon so as to produce a dephosphating product of the naphthol AS derivative phosphate, which adheres to the nylon membrane filter and displays fluorescence. Then, the fluorescence and the pattern thereof (spots, and bands produced by electrophoresis) are detected by irradiating with the excited light.
In the present invention, intense fluorescence can be obtained by the use of the naphthol AS derivative phosphate described above so that detection sensitivity can be improved; for example, 10- 13 g of DNA is detectable.
In the present invention, no isotope is used and therefore, the drawbacks of the prior art can be removed.
Thus, according to the present invention, a method for assaying nucleic acids, etc. which can provide excellent detection sensitivity can be presented.
Further, according to the method of the present invention, the dephosphating product of the naphthol AS derivative phosphate can be produced in high yield. DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Example 1
For the purpose of verifying the effectuality of the naphthol AS derivative phosphate as a probe for nucleic acids, DNA Labeling and Detection kit of Boehringer Mannheim, and naphthol AS-3,5-dimethylphenyl phosphate of Example 2 described later were used to detect DNA on a nvlon membrane filter.
DNA was labeled with digoxigenin (Dig), diluted and spotted on the nylon membrane filter. Each.3f the spots included DNA of herring spermatozoa in the amount of 50 ng (50 x 10- 9 g) as DNA of no peculiarity.
The aforesaid experiment was conducted on 0.08 to 25 pg of Dig-labeled DNA as shown in Fig. 1. 0 pg in the figure shows a blank test. The test results are shown in Fig. 1. Reference numeral 1 designates a carrier filter for a specimen of nucleic acids, and 11 designates fluorescence sensitized portions. "+" represents a fact that the DNA can be detected. " " represents that the DNA cannot distinctly be detected. "-" represents that DNA cannot be detected. As apparent from the above, DNA could satisfactorily be detected even in the small amount of 0.4 pg. In the amount of 0.08 pg, satisfactory detection was impossible.
Then, using the smaller amount of the aforesaid DNA, another experiment was conducted on 0.0156 to 0.5 pg of Dig-labeled DNA in the same manner as described above. The test results are shown in Fig. 2 similarly in Fig. 1. As shown in Fig. 2, satisfactory detection could be attained in the 0. 125 pg (125 fg). In the amount of 0.0625 pg, detection was not satistactory.
In this former experiment, a conventional color development detection using azo-color, Fast Blue BB (of POLYSCIENCE, INC.) was conducted. As the result of this detection, the detectable spot included 0.5 pg (0.5 x 10- 12 g) of the DNA. Example 2 A naphthol AS derivative phosphate of the present invention was produced by the following proceigses.
According to the description of Enzyme Histochemistry, 5 gr (0.027 mol) of 2-hydroxy-3-naphthoic acid, 40 ml of dehydrated xylene and 0.023 mol of 3,5dimethyl aniline were stirred in a 100 ml NASU flusk provided with Graham condenser at 80 'C for 10 minutes.
Then, 0.01 mol of phosphorous trichloride was added thereto. The resulting mixture was refluxed for 2 hours. Thereafter, the reaction solution was decanted as in hot state to skim the supernatant fluid. After cooling the fluid at 4 'C, it was subjected to filtration. The precipitates thus obtained was eluted with xylene and then water. Further, the precipitates was neutralized with 2% aqueous solution of sodium carbonate, and xylene was removed therefrom by boiling.
Then, the precipitates was rendered pH = 9 with 2% aqueous solution of sodium carbonate, filtrated and cooled. The precipitates thus obtained was eluted with water. The precipitates was added to 3% HC1 solution, heated, filtrated and then cooled. Then the precipitates was washed with hot water and dried.
- Next, the precipitates were recrystalized to produce 3-hydroxy-2naphthoic acid V,V-dimethyl anilide shown by the following formula.
ta C'ONH H3 X CH3 1 g of this naphthol AS derivative was dissolved in 8 ml of pylidine. After stirring this solution at 0 C for 30 minutes, phosphorus oxychloride (2.5 eq) cooled similarly was added thereto and stirred at 0 'C for 4 hours. Then, ice was added to the solution to terminate the reaction.
The reaction product thus obtained was purified on a reverse phase silica gel column and then a normal phase silica gel column to produce 3-hydroxy2-naphthoi acid- V,5'-dimethyl anilide phosphate shown by the following formula.
0 11 OP (OW 2 CH3 CONH-0 CH3 Examples 3 through 12 Various naphthol AS derivative phosphate were produced using various aniline derivative in the same manner as Example 2.
C - 11 Detection test similar to Example 1 was conducted on each of the naphthol AS derivative phosphate by the same method as in Example 1, i.e. spolting on the carrier filter for a specimen of nucleic acids.
The aforesaid aniline derivative and naphthol AS derivative phosphate obtained therefrom are shown in Table 1.
The test results are shown in Table 2. As apparent from Table 2, the extremely small amount of DNA can be detected in high sensitivity..
The naphthol AS derivative phosphate shown in Examples 2 through 12 are as follows.
