Description

R.Rigler/Single nucleic acid base detection SINGLE NUCLEIC ACID BASE DETECTION ON SOLID SUBSTRATES IN SINGLE MOLECULE DNA SEQUENCING SPECIFICATION Field The analysis of the sequence of nucleic acid bases, the elementary building blocks of DNA, is of praramount importance for understanding the genomic code. Presently two methods are being used based on specific cleavage (Maxam-Gilbert) or chain termination (Sanger) of the DNA chain after A,T,G and C. Separation of the fragments is carried out by gel electrophoresis and detection of radioactive or fluorescence marked fragments by appropriate means.The present technology allows a sequencing speed of a few thousand nucleic acid bases per day.
Background The present technology has a throughput of about 3 to 4 bases per day and requires the sequencing of many overlapping fragments which usivally are cloned in various vectors .The demand for DNA sequencing particularly with medical perspectives in mind is very much higher as exemplified by the human genome project with the aim of sequencing 3x9 bases. In order to reach this goal radically new concepts for DNA sequencing are necessary.
A proposal suggested by the Los Alamos National Laboratory (Jett et al., 1989 ) is based on the processive cleavage of a single DNA strand by an exonuclease.This will result in the succesive liberation of nucleic acid bases,which have to be detected a t the level of a single molecule.The Los Alamos group has Ela SOW 41 Tea tithatit* tef ttl?e tagged nucleotides and skessive cleavage.As detection system a sheet flow system has been devised. (Davies et al.1991 ).The main idea is to use the high clevage rate (100 s-1) of the exonuclease combined with rapid single molecule detection to increase the speed of the sequencing process by orders of magnitude.
To be succesfull this approach requires the ability to detect single molecules in a time intervall which is comparable to the turnover number of the enzyme (ca 100 s-1) as well as enzymes which are able to cope with nucleotides tagged with bulky aromatic dye molecules. It has been shown that Rhodamine-labelled nucleotide bases can be detected within 100 s (Rigler&Mets,1992, Mets&Rigler,1994) when excited to fluorescence by a laser beam focussed in extremely small volume elements (2x-16L). The second requirement ,however ,i.e the faithful incorporation of dye tagged nucleotides has yet to be demonstrated.
While for dye tagged nucleotides the possibility of single molecule detection has been demonstrated it appears to be very difficult for natural nucleotides due to their very low quantum yield which is is of order -3 to -4- at room temperature for regular nucleotides (Callis,1979),If this would be possible,e.g. at conditions with enhanced fuoescence yields , the problem connected with enzymes which are not designed by nature to handle dye tagged compounds would be avoided.
Even if both requirements i.e. faithful incorporation of all dye tagged nucleotides as well as single molecule detection can be met an important issue is how many nucleotides can be detected successively before one will be lost.This will depend on the flow system to be used i.e. sheet flow ( Davies et.al.,1991.) or electrophoretic flow (Eigen &Rigler,1994).The problem here is to avoid losses of molecules during the detection process which will occurr if turbulence exists in the sheet flow system or the electric field gradients are not properly designed.A third component, probably the most important is the resistence of the molecules to photodegradation during the detection process which even with laser dyes like Rhodamine is a matter of concern.

Drawings which: The disclosures herein have referencs to the drawings in Figure 1 is a schematic of the exonuclease based cleavage process of the DNA molecule postioned on a support in a capillary and of the deposition of single DNA bases onto the solid substrate (silicon or quartz wafer).The transfer of the charged base from the capillary to the substrate is due to eletric field gradients, elctro-osmotic flow, or mechanical deposition .The substrate moves relatively to the capillary with a speed comparable to the cleavage rate.
Figure 2 is a schematic of the single DNA base detection in cryo temperature under high vaccuum.The substrate with the deposited single DNA bases is scanned through the volume element of excitation . This is imaged over a confocal pinhole on the detector . Exciting and emitted radiation are separated by a dichroic mirror. instead of the substrate itsself also its image can be scanned.

Detailed description of the Best Mode of Carrying Out the Invention.
The following detailed description is by way of example and not by way of limitation of the principle of this investigation and has reference to specific examples in which DNA sequencing is carried out by single molecule detection on a solid substrate.
Generation of single nucleic acid bases by enzymatic cleavage and transfer to a solid substrate.
The enzymatic cleavage of a single DNA molecule bound to a spherical support is carried out in a small glass capillary.The spherical support carrying a single DNA molecule is introduced into the capillary or a microstructure with equivalent function.The processive exonucleolytic cleavage is started by addition of an excess of exonuclease which will cleave each nucleic acid base in a processive manner (Figure 1).
Due to the generation of a local electric field gradient between the capillary and the solid substrate alternatively by generation of a R.Rigier/Single nucleic acid base detection7 pressure gradient by piezoelectric constriction or other means the single nucleic acid bases are deposited in tiny droplets (pL ) on the surface of the solid support. Chips of silicon or quartz whih can be produced with extreme purity are preferred.During the deposition process the chip is scanned in two dimensions with a speed which is compatible with the rate of base cleavage with the exonuclease. If one nucleic acid base is deposited i310 bases can be hold on a chip of size lcm x 1 cm.
Solid substrates will have the important advantage over flow detection systems that they will keep a permanent record of the nucleic acid base sequence and can be analyses over and ove again.
Analysis of single nucleic acid bases on solid substrates Once the chip with the array of single nucleic acid bases which constitute an imprint of the DNA sequence are generated the chip will be tranferred to special measuring device which is outlined as follows (Figure 2).
The detection of the presence of the nucleic acid base is carried out preferentially at cryo temperature (10-1000K) where natural bases show an increase in quantum yield by orders of magnitude (Morgan and Callis,1973,1979).With excitation in extremely small confocal volume elements (0.2 fL) very high signal to background ratios can be obtained (Rigler & Mets ,1992,Rigler et al.,1993,Mets & Rigler,1994) already with CW excitation. This ratio can be improved further by the application of pulsed excitation and time gating (Rigler et al., 1984) For the actual measurement the laser beam is deflected by a dichroic mirror onto the solid substrate and the emission of single nucleic acid bases is detected passing the dichroic mirror the confocal pinhole and impinging on the detector.
The presence and location of the nucleic acid bases is obtained by scanning the chip in 2 dimensions or an optical element generating the image in the plane of the pinhole.The pinhole can also be substitutet by a combination of an array of lasers and an tarray of detetors .Provided the signal to background is sufficient R.Rigler/Single nucleic acid base detection8 pulsed excitation and time gating in combination with array detectors (CCD od APD) can be used.
An important advantage in using cryo temperatures is the reduction and virtual absence of photodestruction during the analysis.since generation and diffusion of chemical species like radicals involved in photodestructions is inhibited.
Application of nucleic acid base analogs for DNA sequencing.
It can be shown that purines (A,G) can be differentiated from pyrimidines (C,T) by the lifetime of the excited state (Rigler etal.1984) .With the introduction of nucleic acid base analogs (Figure 3) which exhibit high quantum yield and can base pair with natural nucleic acid bases .The presence and location of theseanalogs can be measured at high temperatures where natural nucliec acid bases do not fluoresce. At low temperatures the position of purines and pyrimidines can be evaluated and thus the whole sequence .Two examples for the combination of analogs with natural nucleic acid bases are given (Figure 4 a,b) References Callis,P.R.,Chemical Physics Letters,61,563-567,1979.
