Definitions

  • the invention can be used to provide a more efficient and less error-prone method of detecting variants in DNA, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), multi-nucleotide polymorphisms (MNPs), and indels.
  • SNPs single nucleotide polymorphisms
  • MNPs multi-nucleotide polymorphisms
  • the invention also provides a method for performing inexpensive multi-color assays, and provides methods for visualizing multiple allele results in a two-dimensional plot.
  • RNase H2-dependent PCR (see U.S. Patent Application Publication No. US 2009/0325169 A1, incorporated by reference herein in its entirety) and standard allele-specific PCR (ASPCR) can both be utilized for mutation detection.
  • ASPCR standard allele-specific PCR
  • the DNA polymerase performs the mismatch discrimination by detection of a mismatch at or near the 3′ end of the primer. While ASPCR is sometimes successful in mismatch detection, the discrimination can be limited, due to the low mismatch detection ability of wild-type DNA polymerases.
  • the mismatch sensitivity of the RNase H2 enzyme in rhPCR allows for both sensitive detection of DNA mutations, and elimination of primer-dimer artifacts from the reaction.
  • placement of the mismatch within the primer is important. The nearer to the cleavable RNA the mismatch is located, the more discrimination is observed from the RNase H2 enzyme, and the greater the discrimination of the resulting rhPCR assay. Given the fact that most common wild-type DNA polymerases such as Taq often display low levels of mismatch detection, the polymerase cannot be solely relied upon to perform this discrimination after RNase H2 cleavage. Coupled with the repeated interrogation desired from every cycle of standard rhPCR, placing the mismatch anywhere other than immediately opposite the RNA is undesirable when utilizing these polymerases.
  • the disclosure provides assays making use of high discrimination polymerase mutants or other high mismatch discrimination polymerases to create a new assay design that can utilize mismatches located 5′ of the RNA.
  • the invention can be used to provide a more efficient and less error-prone method of detecting mutations in DNA, such as SNPs and indels.
  • the invention also provides a method for performing inexpensive multi-color assays.
  • FIG. 1 is a diagram showing two primer designs utilized in this invention.
  • Part a) is a blocked-cleavable primer designed so that the SNP of interest is 5′ of the RNA base when hybridized to a template.
  • the RNase H2 cleaves, leaving a 3′ interrogating base, which is determined to be either a match or a mismatch by the highly discriminative DNA polymerase. Thermal cycling allows for this process to continue.
  • Part b) illustrates the RNase H2 cleavage and SNP detection are identical to a), but the primer also includes a 5′ “tail” domain that includes a binding site for a probe and a universal forward primer.
  • the highly concentrated universal forward primer comes to dominate the amplification, degrading the probe when it amplifies. This cycle is repeated 25-50 ⁇ , generating the output signal.
  • This primer design may be multiplexed, allowing for one-tube multi-color assay designs.
  • FIGS. 2A and 2B are end-point fluorescence plots from the assay described in Example 1. FAM and HEX fluorescence values are plotted onto the X and Y axis.
  • FIG. 2 A is a “Universal” SNP assay for rs351855 performed with WT Taq polymerase.
  • FIG. 2B is a “Universal” SNP assay for rs351855 performed with mutant H784Q Taq polymerase, demonstrating greatly enhanced discrimination between each of the allelic variants as observed by the greater separation of the clusters in the mutant Taq case.
  • the no template controls (NTCs) squares
  • Allele 1 samples are shown as circles, allele 2 samples as diamonds, and heterozygotes as triangles. Each reaction was performed in triplicate.
  • FIGS. 3A and 3B are allelic discrimination plots with genotyping calls for rs4655751.
  • the reaction plate was cycled immediately after reaction setup (A) or held at room temperature on the benchtop for 48 hours prior to cycling (B).
  • Genotypes are tightly clustered and have good angle separation, indicating excellent allelic specificity. Each sample was assigned the correct genotyping call, and no change in performance was observed over the 48 hour hold period.
  • FIGS. 4A and 4B illustrate a side-by-side comparison of Allelic Discrimination Plots of gene CCR2, rs1799865 from a TaqMan based assay versus rhPCR.
  • Diamonds no template controls (NTCs); squares: allele 1 samples; circles: allele 2 samples; triangles: heterozygotes.
  • the rhPCR Genotyping Assay ( FIG. 4B ) achieved higher fluorescence signal compared to a traditional 5′-nuclease genotyping assay ( FIG. 4A ) while showing concordant results.
  • FIGS. 5A and 5B are Allelic Discrimination plots of tri-allelic SNP, CYP2C8 (rs72558195), using an rhPCR genotyping single tube multiplex assay on the QuantStudioTM 7 Flex platform (Thermo Fisher).
  • NTCs no template controls
  • FIG. 5B diamonds: no template controls (NTCs); squares: allele G (allele 1) samples; circles: allele C (allele 3) samples; triangles: heterozygotes.
  • FIG. 6 shows the Tri-allelic Allelic Discrimination 360plot of CYP2C8 rs72558195, using rhPCR genotyping assay with 3 allele-specific primers multiplexed in a single reaction.
  • FIG. 7 is an allelic discrimination plot illustrating the ability of the rhPCR assay to perform quantitative genotyping.
  • FIGS. 8A and 8B illustrate genotyping results and detection of allelic copy number variation that is possible with the present invention.
  • gDNA samples were tested using varying copy numbers and varying reference genotypes.
  • diamonds no template controls (NTCs); squares: allele G samples; circles: allele C samples; and triangles: heterozygotes. The resulting data correlates with the test input.
  • FIG. 9 is a schematic representation of multiplex rhPCR.
  • FIG. 10 is the resulting tape station image indicating the effectiveness of the multiplex rhPCR methods in reducing primer dimers and increasing desired amplicon yield.
  • FIG. 11 graphically represents the effectiveness of the rhPrimers in the percent of mapped reads and on-target reads.
  • the invention pertains to a methods of single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) discrimination utilizing blocked-cleavable rhPCR primers (see U.S. Patent Application Publication No. US 2009/0325169 A1, incorporated by reference herein in its entirety) and a DNA polymerase with high levels of mismatch discrimination.
  • the mismatch is placed at a location other than opposite the RNA base. In these situations, the majority of the discrimination comes not from the RNase H2, but from the high discrimination polymerase.
  • the use of blocked-cleavable primers with RNase H2 acts to reduce or eliminate primer-dimers and provide some increased amount of SNP or indel (insertion/deletion) discrimination ( FIG. 1 a ).
  • high discrimination is defined as any amount of discrimination over the average discrimination of WT Thermus aquaticus (Taq) polymerase.
  • Taq Thermus aquaticus
  • examples include KlenTaq® DNA polymerase (Wayne Barnes), and mutant polymerases described in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. US 2015/0191707 (incorporated by reference herein in its entirety) such as H784M, H784S, H784A and H784Q mutants.
  • a universal detection sequence(s) is added to the 5′-end of the blocked-cleavable primers.
  • the detection sequence includes a binding site for a probe, and a binding site for a universal amplification primer.
  • the primer binding site is positioned at or near the 5′-end of the final oligonucleotide and the probe binding site is positioned internally between the universal primer site and the SNP-detection primer domain.
  • Use of more than one such chimeric probe in a detection reaction wherein distinct probe binding sites are employed allows primers to be multiplexed and further allows for multiple color detection of SNPs or other genomic features.
  • Blocked-cleavable rhPCR primers reduce or eliminate primer-dimers.
  • Primer-dimers are a major problem for use of “universal” primer designs in SNP detection assays, and that limits their utility ( FIG. 1 b ). Combining a universal amplification/detection domain with a SNP primer domain in blocked-cleavable primer format overcomes this difficulty.
  • rhPCR SNP discrimination employed blocked-cleavable primers having the mismatch (SNP site) positioned opposite the single RNA base (cleavage site). While this works for many SNP targets, there are base match/mismatch pairings where sufficient discrimination is not obtained for robust base calling. Moreover, due to the high level of differential SNP discrimination observed with rhPCR, end-point detection can be difficult, especially with heterozygous target DNAs. In the proposed method, the RNA base is identical in both discriminating primers, eliminating this issue.
  • the method involves the use of blocked-cleavable primers wherein the mismatch is placed 1-2 bases 5′ of the RNA. In a further embodiment, the method involves the use of blocked-cleavable primers with three or more DNA bases 3′ of an RNA residue, and the primers are designed such that the mismatch is placed immediately 5′ of the RNA.
  • the remaining primer has a DNA residue positioned at the 3′-end exactly at the SNP site, effectively creating an ASPCR primer.
  • a high-specificity DNA polymerase can discriminate between match and mismatch with the template strand ( FIGS. 1 a and b ).
  • Native DNA polymerases such as Taq DNA polymerase, will show some level of discrimination in this primer configuration, and if the level of discrimination achieved is not sufficient for robust SNP calling in a high throughput assay format then the use of polymerases with improved template discrimination can be used.
  • mutant DNA polymerases such as those disclosed in U.S. Patent Application Publication No.
  • the invention may utilize a “tail” domain added to the 5′ end of the primer, containing a universal forward primer binding site sequence and optionally a universal probe sequence.
  • This tail would not be complementary to the template of interest, and when a probe is used, the tail would allow for inexpensive fluorescent signal detection, which could be multiplexed to allow for multiple color signal detection in qPCR ( FIG. 1 b ).
  • 1-10 cycles of initial cycling and discrimination occurs from both the RNase H2 and the DNA polymerase. After this initial pre-cycling, a highly concentrated and non-discriminatory universal forward primer comes to dominate the amplification, degrading the probe and generating the fluorescent signal when the DNA amplifies. This cycle is repeated 25-50 ⁇ , allowing for robust detection.
  • This assay design is prone to issues with primer-dimers, and the presence of the blocked-cleavable domain in the primers will suppress or eliminate these issues.
  • a forward primer is optionally used with a reverse primer, and a tail domain is added to the 5′ end of one or both of a forward and reverse primer set.
  • the tail domain comprises a universal forward primer binding site.
  • the primers can be used to hybridize and amplify a target such as a genomic sample of interest.
  • the primers would add universal priming sites to the target, and further cycles of amplification can be performed using universal primers that contain adapter sequences that enable further processing of the sample, such as the addition of P5/P7 flow cell binding sites and associated index or barcoding sequences useful in adapters for next-generation sequencing (see FIG. 9 ).
  • a high fidelity polymerase is used, which will further lower the rate of base misincorporation into the extended product and increase the accuracy of the methods of the invention.
  • CRISPR/Cas9 is a revolutionary strategy in genome editing that enables generation of targeted, double-stranded breaks (DSBs) in genomic DNA.
  • the endonuclease activity is followed by an endogenous repair process that leads to some frequency of insertions/deletions/substitutions in wild-type DNA at the target locus which gives the resultant genome editing.
  • RNase H-cleavable primers have been designed to flank edited loci in order to 1) generate locus-specific amplicons with universal tails, and 2) be subsequently amplified with indexed P5/P7 universal primers for next-generation sequencing.
  • this strategy resulted in reliable, locus-specific amplification which captures CRISPR/Cas9 editing events in a high-throughput and reproducible manner.
  • the key finding is that the overall targeted editing by this NGS-based method was determined to be 95%; whereas, previous enzymatic strategies suggested overall editing from the same samples was approximately 55% at the intended target site.

A second metric, the percentage of on-target reads, is almost 95% when using rhPCR primers, but less than 85% when the non-blocked primers are used in the multiplex. These results clearly demonstrate the utility of using rhPCR in multiplexing, where a large increase of the desired material is seen, and a vast reduction in undesired side products is observed. The differences mean less unwanted sequencing reads, and the depth of coverage of desired sequences is higher.
