Abstract
Description
A real-time DNA sequencing method using multi-photon excitation.
A zero-mode waveguide is a metal hole formed by forming a cylindrical hole of several tens of nanometers in diameter on a transparent glass plate, which is called a metal waveguide. A DNA polymerase is attached to the bottom of the metal waveguide, and four DNA bases labeled with a strand of DNA template and fluorescent materials of different colors are introduced through the entrance of the metal waveguide. When the illumination light is exposed to a metal waveguide at the bottom of the substrate, fluorescence occurs when the DNA polymerase binds the complementary DNA base to the DNA base of the DNA template strand. This fluorescence is detected by the metal waveguide and the scanning device located below the glass substrate.
Provides a real-time DNA sequencing method using multi-photon excitation.
Attaching a DNA polymerase to the synthesis region on the waveguide provided in the substrate; Supplying a DNA base labeled with a DNA template strand or fluorescent material; Irradiating multi-photon excitation light to the synthesis region; And detecting fluorescence emitted from the fluorescent material excited by the excitation light with a photodetector.
An anti-reflection film may be formed on the waveguide to prevent reflection of the fluorescence.
The multi-photon excitation light may have an absorption peak that is an integer multiple of the excitation wavelength of the fluorescent material.
The multi-photon excitation light is a two-photon excitation light. The two-photon excitation light may include light having an absorption peak at a wavelength corresponding to twice the absorption peak of the fluorescent material.
The synthetic region can be hydrophilic surface treated to attach a DNA polymerase.
The top of the waveguide may be concave to facilitate attachment of the DNA polymerase.
The waveguide may have a tapered structure so that the DNA polymerase is easily attached.
The diameter of the waveguide may be determined to block the excitation light through the waveguide and transmit the fluorescence.
The diameter r of the waveguide may satisfy r = λ c / n (where λ c is a blocking wavelength and satisfies a wavelength of fluorescence <λ c <excitation light, and n is a refractive index of the waveguide).
The cross section of the waveguide may be circular or polygonal.
The fluorescence may be detected by placing the photodetector close to or in contact with the lower portion of the waveguide.
The DNA polymerase can be located on the top surface of the waveguide without being located at the bottom of the waveguide, thereby facilitating the supply of DNA bases labeled with fluorescent material. Since the excitation light is blocked by the waveguide, there is no need for a dichroic filter that separates the excitation light and the fluorescence. In addition, contact and proximity detection of fluorescence emitted from excited fluorescent materials is possible.
Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the examples exemplified below are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, but are provided to fully explain the present invention to those skilled in the art. In the drawings, like reference numerals refer to like elements, and the size of each element in the drawings may be exaggerated for clarity and convenience of description.

When sequencing DNA using a zero-mode waveguide, the DNA polymerase should be located at the bottom of the waveguide hole, and the circulation of the solution moves the DNA base labeled with fluorescent material to the bottom of the waveguide hole where the DNA polymerase is located. There was a difficulty.
In the disclosed DNA sequencing method, the
The excitation light may use multi-photon excitation. Hereinafter, a case of two-photon excitation will be described as an example. The excitation light of two-photon excitation includes light of a wavelength corresponding to twice the absorption peak of the fluorescent material. In this case, the fluorescent material is hardly excited by the single-photon, but excited by the two-photon because the wavelength of the two-photon coincides with the wavelength of the absorption band of the fluorescent material. In order to excite four different color fluorescent materials, excitation light having four different peak wavelengths is grouped together. Four DNA base-fluorescent material complexes with different absorption bands for two-photon absorb two different photon excitation light and emit four different colors of fluorescence.
Since the excitation light itself is longer than the cutoff wavelength of the
In Equation 1, λ c satisfies a wavelength of fluorescence <λ c <excitation light as a cutoff wavelength of the
For example, when the blocking wavelength condition of the excitation light is determined to be 800 nm or less longer than the longest wavelength peak among four kinds of fluorescent colors, the excitation light having a wavelength peak of 800 nm or more does not pass through the
Under the condition that the blocking wavelength is 800 nm, when the refractive index (for example, the refractive index is 1 or more) when the material of the
Referring to FIG. 4, it is shown how deep the excitation light having four different wavelength peaks can pass into the
In Equation 2, n is the refractive index of the
Three-photon excitation has an absorption peak at three times the wavelength of the excitation wavelength peak of the fluorescent material, and four-photon excitation has four times the excitation wavelength peak of the fluorescent material. It has an absorption peak at the wavelength of. In the case of more multi-photon excitation, the same principle has an absorption peak at a wavelength of an integral multiple of the excitation wavelength peak of the fluorescent material. In general, two-photon excitation can be most efficient because the absorption cross section decreases as the photon multiple increases.
The fluorescence is generated by the excitation light, and the downward fluorescence is emitted toward the rear surface of the
As described above, the fluorescence emitted from the fluorescent material labeled with the DNA base is emitted to the back of the
