Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a DNA aptamer that specifically binds to the surface of a Vibrio ficus < RTI ID = 0.0 > livebacterium, < / RTI >

The present invention relates to a DNA aptamer which specifically binds to the surface of a V. vulnificus and a use thereof.

Vibrio fischeri is a strain that grows on the light emitting organs of deep-sea squid among the Vibrio genus. It is a tuberous anaerobic gram-negative bacterium, which is motile and has one or more flagella. Vibrio fischeri is one of several strains of marine ecosystems and forms a biofilm as a strategy to increase viability. It is recognized that resistance to multiple stresses is significantly increased compared to non-species, thus becoming an essential step in survival strategy . However, when the biofilm is formed, there is a problem that the resistance of the therapeutic agent and the antibiotic against Vibrio ficusi is increased about 500 times as compared with that in the case of swimming. Therefore, biofilm formation has many adverse effects on the economy and industry even if it is a natural phenomenon as a means of survival strategy of an organism. Formation of biofilm has been found to account for 80% of the adverse effects of implant surgery.

Conventional methods for controlling the production of biofilm have been attempted based on bacterial killing by antibiotics or antifouling agents, but the indiscriminate use of antibiotics in strains with increased resistance may lead to mutations into antibiotic resistant strains, It is very limited. In addition, because antifouling agents are non-selective biotoxins that are toxic to other organisms, the use of antifouling agents causes not only great damage to environmental ecosystems but also serious economic damage to recover them. The risk of antifouling has been confirmed by the fact that TBT (tributyl tin), a chemical fouling agent most commonly used in ships and aquaculture since the 1970s, causes a variety of phenomena such as male genitalia in females of various marine organisms, It has been pointed out that it is an environmental hormone that seriously threatens the environment. TBT can induce sexual mutation even at concentrations below 1 ppt and there is continuing discovery of TBT contamination in the southern coast. Therefore, in developed countries, since 1982, the concentration of TBT used as an antifouling agent on large ships has been regulated, and it has been banned for small ships operating on the coast. In Korea, TBT regulations have been introduced since 2005, and substances such as copper sulfate have been used as an alternative material. However, TBT has been designated as a contaminant, and it is necessary to develop a substitute for an antifouling agent such as TBT.

Aptamers are composed of oligomers of short length and form their own various three-dimensional structures. These oligomer structure libraries are capable of structurally binding with various target substances, and among them, screening for aptamers specific to the target substance Respectively. The selected aptamers have the advantage of being able to obtain sequence through sequence analysis, mass production in a short time and low cost by using chemical synthesis technique, and continuous production of aptamer having the same ability once production and production. In addition, it is composed of DNA and can provide more stability through additional chemical substitution process. It is very stable in surrounding pH and temperature, and attaches compounds such as biotin, And it can be used in various fields such as medicine.

The disclosures of the cited papers and patent documents are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety to better understand the state of the art to which the present invention pertains and the content of the present invention.

The DNA aptamers of the present invention are arranged and immobilized on the substrate. Such immobilization is carried out by a chemical bonding method or a covalent bonding method such as UV. For example, DNA oligonucleotides can be attached to glass surfaces modified to include epoxy compounds or aldehyde groups, and can also be bound by UV on polylysine coating surfaces. In addition, the DNA oligonucleotides may be bound to the substrate via linkers (e.g., ethylene glycol oligomers and diamines).

After sufficient incubation for 24 hours, the supernatant was removed and the wells were washed 2-3 times with 1x PBS. Thereafter, the cells were stained with 200 μl of 1.0% crystal violet for 20 minutes to be stained with a biofilm and a cell extract. The stained wells were thoroughly washed 2-3 times with 1x PBS and then dried to remove cell extracts except for the biofilm attached to the well surface. 200 μl of 100% ethanol was used to decolorize the crystal violet dyed on the biofilm and the sample was measured at OD 550 to quantify the dyed biomass. In this experiment, it was confirmed that lactoferrin conjugated with aptamer has the best biofilm inhibiting ability similar to growth inhibition.

Example 13: Study for industrial application of biofilm formation inhibition ability of finally selected Vibrio Fischeri surface-bound DNA aptamer

In order to industrially utilize the ability of the Vibrio Fischeri surface-bound DNA aptamer to inhibit the biofilm formation of the Vibrio Fischeri surface biofilm in an environment infected with Vibrio fischeri, The binding DNA aptamers inhibit the growth of Vibrio ficusi and control the biofilm. It is expected that biofilm can be limited in diverse environments by utilizing the power of various samples.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is to be understood that the same is by way of illustration and example only and is not to be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. Accordingly, the actual scope of the present invention will be defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
