Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for reinforcing an amplified signal of a real-time polymerase chain reaction (real-time PCR, RT-PCR) by using a novel single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) typing system (NSTS) probe comprising bases which are not complementary to a base sequence of a template. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing an NSTS probe, wherein PCR amplification efficiency is increased and a more reinforced amplified signal can be generated by substituting some bases, among a base sequence configuring the probe, with bases which is not complementary to the template in order to increase sensitivity of NSTS detection. In addition, the present invention relates to a method for reinforcing an amplified signal even more by using both a base-substituted NSTS probe and TagMan probe which are labeled with the same fluorescent material.

Description

(Mutant Detection Method by Amplification Signal Enhanced Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction)

The present invention provides real-time PCR using a NSTS (Novel Single Nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) Typing System) probe (hereinafter referred to as a base-substituted NSTS probe) containing a base that is not complementary to the nucleotide sequence of the template , ≪ / RTI > RT-PCR). More specifically, substituting at least one of the bases constituting the NSTS probe with a template and non-complementary base enhances the efficiency of the PCR amplification and produces a NSTS probe that can realize a more enhanced amplification signal, Substituted NSTS probe with a TagMan probe to further amplify the amplified signal.

NSTS (Novel SNP Typing System) is based on RT-PCR and is a new SNP detection system using FEN (Flap endonuclease) specificity of DNA polymerase. Conventional methods using RT-PCR and hybridization probes or hydrolysis probes (such as hydrolysis probes or TaqMan probes) use the difference in complementary binding force of probes with temperature only to distinguish SNPs, while NSTS It is advantageous in the specificity of the test and in the multi-species analysis by using the characteristics of the enzyme rather than the classification based on the classification (Patent Publication 10-2015-0082848).

RT-PCR using the NSTS probe is one of the methods applicable to the detection of tumor-specific mutations requiring high specificity and sensitivity as a means of detecting gene mutation which is rapid, sensitive and specific and is economical.

(1) the sensitivity to detect mutant DNA present in a low ratio in normal DNA; and (2) the false positive to misjudge normal DNA mutation DNA. false positive rate is minimized as much as possible.

Several methods have been developed and used to detect tumor-specific mutations. Direct sequencing, allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR), restriction fragment length polymorphism Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP), TaqMan probe method, and amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS) PCR. However, these methods failed to show satisfactory results in sensitivity and specificity. Direct sequencing has the disadvantage of being detectable only in the presence of 20 to 30% or more of mutant DNA, while the ratio of false positives is low due to its high specificity. On the other hand, AS-PCR, RFLP, and TaqMan probe methods have high sensitivity but low specificity and always have problems of false positives.

Recently, a peptide nucleic acid-mediated PCR clamping method (Sun, X., et al., 2002. Nat Biotechnol, 20: 186-189), LNA (locked nucleic acid) mediated PCR clamping method (Dominguez, PL, et (Li, J., et al., 2008. Nat Med, 14: 579-584), and the like, as well as COLD-PCR (co-amplification at lower denaturation temperature PCR) However, PNA or LNA-mediated PCR clamping has been limited in its wide application due to limited availability and high cost. COLD-PCR is simple to perform, but the amplification rate is 3-100 times It is unsatisfactory and has a disadvantage that it is weak against a minute change of temperature.

The ARMS-PCR method was developed to improve specificity, which is a disadvantage of AS-PCR. It is based on the principle that PCR is performed only when the primer is composed of a perfect complementary sequence with the sequence of the template as in AS-PCR (Newton, CR, et al., 1989. Nucl Acids Res, 17: 2503-2516). More specifically, when the 3 'terminal base of a primer corresponding to a specific SNP position coincides with a nucleotide sequence of a template The method is based on the principle that the amplification is performed and the amplification is not performed when it does not match. However, it is very difficult to control the PCR amplification by virtue of the coincidence or inconsistency with the template of the base of one base at the 3 'end of the primer. To overcome this problem, a method has been developed which uses a primer with base substitution added to dislocate the third or fourth base from the 3 'end of the primer with the template (Kwok, S., et al. 1990. Nucl Acid Res 18: 999-1005). Typical ARMS primer design guidelines should be designed so that if the 3 'end is a weak mismatch such as G-G, then the added base substitution will be a strong incompatibility such as G-A. Conversely, if the 3 'end is strongly discordant, then the base substitution added should be designed to be a mismatch. According to Little, GA, CT and TT are the strongest discrepancies, CC is the strongest discrepancy, AA, GG is the medium discrepancy, CA, GT is the weak discrepancy, and AT and GC are the weakest discrepancies , 1994. John Wiley & Sons, Inc. New York, pp.9.8.1.-9.8.12.). However, even if the above-mentioned criteria are applied, it is a reality that experimental trial and error is required to determine an optimal primer having excellent specificity (Drenkard, E., et al., 2000. Plant Physiol. 124: 1483-1492). Recently, guidelines for reflecting statistical significance have been developed using 2071 pairs of primers to solve this problem (Liu, J., et al., 2012. Plant Methods. 8: 34).

Although a variety of molecular diagnostic techniques have been developed as described above, there is still a need to develop molecular diagnostic techniques that have sufficient sensitivity and specificity.

In the present invention, an allele-specific probe based on RT-PCR is used, but a method of enhancing the amplification signal to enhance the sensitivity of NSTS, which has advantages in assay specificity and multi-species analysis, by using the specificity of the enzyme, I want to.

For this purpose, the inventors of the present invention confirmed that a base-substituted NSTS probe in which at least one of the bases constituting the NSTS probe was replaced with a template and a non-complementary base enhances RT-PCR amplification efficiency and further amplifies the amplification signal. .

The present invention is intended to improve the sensitivity of NSTS designed to effectively detect mutant DNA such as SNPs.

The present invention provides a method of designing a probe suitable for NSTS based on RT-PCR which can increase the sensitivity.

The present invention is characterized by substituting a base at a specific position of an NSTS probe.

The present invention is characterized by enriching the RT-PCR amplified signal using a base substituted NSTS probe.

The term " base-substituted NSTS probe " in the present invention is collectively referred to as an NSTS probe in which at least one base among the nucleotide sequences constituting the probe is substituted with a template and non-complementary. Specifically, a base in which one of the 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th bases is additionally substituted with a base which is not complementary to the base of the template together with the third base substitution (basic NSTS probe) from the 5'end of the probe Quot; oligonucleotide "

The present invention is characterized by enhancing the RT-PCR amplified signal by using the same fluorescent substance-labeled NSTS probe and TaqMan probe.

The present invention relates to a method for enhancing an amplified signal using a non-fluorescent NSTS probe using SYBR Green.

In addition, the NSTS probe of the present invention is characterized in that the third base from the 5 'end is an oligonucleotide of the (Mis + 3 (2) / Mis3 + (1)) form substituted with a base that is not complementary to the base of the template.

Also, the present invention is characterized in that the NSTS probe is an oligonucleotide in which one of the 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th bases from the 5 'end is substituted with a base that is not complementary to the base of the template.

The present invention relates to a method for enhancing an amplified signal using the NSTS probe in which fluorescent substances FAM and BHQ1 are bound at both ends, respectively.

In addition, the present invention is characterized in that the NSTS probe to which the fluorescent substance is coupled is an oligonucleotide in which the ninth base is substituted from the 5 'end.

In addition, the present invention provides a method for enhancing an amplified signal by simultaneously using a TaqMan probe labeled with the same fluorescent substance as the NSTS probe.

In addition, the present invention provides a method for inspecting SNP by RT-PCR using the above-mentioned NSTS probe.

According to the present invention, a means for further enhancing the sensitivity of NSTS based on RT-PCR is provided.

According to the method of the present invention, the use of a base-substituted NSTS probe increases the PCR efficiency and enhances the RT-PCR amplification signal.

Also, unlike PNAs that can not be labeled with fluorescent materials, NSTS probes can be produced in the form of a fluorescent substance labeled. Therefore, the RT-PCR amplification signal can be enhanced by using the NSTS probe labeled with the same fluorescent substance simultaneously with the TaqMan probe, which is a means for further enhancing the sensitivity of NSTS.

The sensitivity-enhanced NSTS of the present invention can be used as an assay for detecting tumor-specific mutations requiring high sensitivity and specificity.

As shown in FIGS. 6 and 5, a typical RT-PCR signal in which the FAM fluorescence signal gradually increases with the generation of the PCR amplification product was observed, and it was confirmed that there was a difference in the amplification efficiency depending on the type of probe used .

In the RT-PCR using the NSTS probe with the FRET principle, the PCR amplification can be effectively performed by base substitution as in the case of the SYBR Green test. That is, it was confirmed that the Ct was lowered by 3.5 or more and the PCR amplified signal (RFU) was also increased by 50% (RFU 2089.44 -> 2953.16).

Using the combo probe with the NSTS probe applied with the FRET principle, the PCR amplification signal was increased by 43% (RFU 2953.16 -> 4256.57).

The results of the reaction and the reaction show that the NSTS probe can accurately distinguish the traits according to SNPs. That is, it was confirmed that nonspecific PCR amplification did not occur.

Example 5 demonstrates that a base-substituted NSTS probe using the FRET principle can accurately distinguish SNP traits without nonspecific reaction, and can be used with a combo probe to amplify the amplified signal to obtain highly sensitive RT-PCR results I could.
