Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of detecting susceptibility of animals to a particular disease, namely scrapie.
  • Scrapie is an infectious disease of the central nervous system of sheep, goats and cattle. It is invariably fatal after very long incubation periods and is characterised by the presence of scrapie associated fibrils (SAF) in brain extracts of affected animals. Scrapie is transmissible to mice and hamsters and is usually studied in these animals.
  • SAF scrapie associated fibrils
  • BSE bovine spongiform encephal ⁇ pathy
  • glycoprotein PrP (molecular weight 33-35 000) is the major component of SAF which is expressed at the same level in normal and scrapie affected brain tissue. However, in the uninfected animal SAF do not form. Proteins of a similar molecular weight and highly conserved structure sequence are encoded by mouse and sheep genes although the ovine PrP mRNA (5 kb ) is about twice the length of the hamster and mouse PrP mRNA (2.5 kb).
  • Sinc with two alleles p7 and s7 is the major gene determining the incubation period of all strains of scrapie in mice. There is evidence that Sinc is linked to the PrP gene in inbred and congenic mouse strains from restriction fragment polymorphism (RFLP) analysis.
  • RFLP restriction fragment polymorphism
  • RFLP restriction fragment length polymorphism
  • One aspect of the invention provides a method of determining whether an ovine, caprine or bovine animal is susceptible to scrapie, the method comprising analysing the DNA of that animal for a polymorphism linked to scrapie susceptibility.
  • the new method comprises:
  • the DNA is usually, of course, extracted from material obtained from the animal, rather than being extracted directly from the animal.
  • equivalent enzymes covers enzymes which cleave at equivalent sites as EcoRI or HindIII.
  • HindIII recognises the sequence 5'-AAGCTT-3'
  • Alul and Oxal will have an equivalent action, as they recognise the sequence AGCT.
  • Actual isoschizomers of HindIII include BbrI, Hin1731, Hinblll, HinJCII, HsuI and Mkil.
  • the sequence recognised by EcoRI is 5'-GAATTC-3', and isoschizomers include RstI and SsoI.
  • Candidate enzymes may be compared with EcoRI and Hindlll to ensure that they are sufficiently similar in their action not to generate spurious results.
  • the equivalent enzymes are actual isoschizomers, in other words they recognise exactly the same sequence and cut at exactly the same place.
  • the recognition of the same sequence is more important than cutting at exactly the same point, as a cut a few bases away from EcoRI or HindIII sites will have only an insignificant effect on the MW of the resulting fragments.
  • the DNA is extracted from blood, liver or brain tissue by a procedure which does not kill the animal or render it commercially useless.
  • step (b) may be used simultaneously (or sequentially), but the resulting fragments are 3.4kb (Sip s As A ) and 3.8kb (Sip P A P A ) and are not so easily distinguished from one another.
  • Suitable probes may be devised and constructed by known means, based on the sequence information relating to the PrP glycoprotein dislosed in Robakis et ai (1986) and Basler et al (1986). (See also Figure 4).
  • the probe should hybridise in a useful way (i.e. with the stringency conditions being adapted to give a meaningful answer, as can be determined routinely and non-inventively) to the DNA encoding the PrP glycoprotein.
  • This glycoprotein has been found to be highly conserved across the species and therefore DNA (preferably from the coding region) from, say, hamsters can be used to construct a probe for sheep DNA.
  • a suitable probe is pEA974, available from Dr. N. Robakis, Institute for Basic Research in Development Disabilities, 1050, Forest Hill Road, Staten Island, N.Y. 10314, USA, although the performance of the invention does not rely upon the use of this particular probe.
  • the probe can represent any portion of the sequence lying between the two polymorphic sites shown in Figure 2.
  • the probe hybridises to the region of DNA identified by the cross-hatched box in Figure 2, and it can be seen that 3.4 kb or 5.0 kb HindIII fragments or 4.4 kb or 6.8 kb EcoRI fragments will be detected, according to whether the allele is sA or pA, respectively.
  • the fragment which was characteristic of the polymorphism and which was detected would be a 2.4 kb fragment.
  • a probe hybridising between the polymorphic HindIII site and the right-hand HindIII site would detect a 1.6kb fragment characteristic of the polymorphism.
  • the analysis in step (c) may be for these fragments.
  • the analysis may follow digestion with one or more further restriction enzymes, for example TagI following a HindIII digestion, yielding fragments which are indicative of the said EcoRI or HindIII fragments.
  • the second enzyme site and the polymorphic first enzyme site should be on opposite sides of the DNA recognised by the labelled probe.
  • the RFLP is located in a non-coding portion associated with the gene for PrP.
  • fragment sizes are approximate and depend upon operational factors such as the (agarose) gel running conditions, source of standard DNA markers and so on. For example, under other conditions the 5.0 kb HindIII fragment appears to be only 4.8 kb long and the 6.8 kb EcoRI fragment appears to be 7.0 kb long. It is the relative mobility of the fragments which is important.
  • hybridises is used in the context of conditions which produce an informative signal within 70 days (5 ⁇ t1 ⁇ 2 of 32 P ).
  • the probe is preferably at least 20 bases long.
  • the polymorphisms giving rise to the presence or absence of the EcoRI and/or HindIII sites may be detected by differential hybridisation using allele specific oligonucleotides constructed according to the sequence information given herein and applied to DNA, RNA, chromosomes, cells or tissue sections, optionally following amplification, for example with the PCR method.
  • the oligonucleotide:ATC CTC TAT TAT GAA TTC TTC TGG AAA ACT will bind more tightly to the DNA from the sA allele than to the DNA from the pA allele.
  • Such a difference in hybridisation affinity can be detected by conventional techniques. Longer or shorter sequences of oligonucleotide may be devised non-inventively to suit the parameters of the particular hybridisation assay in order to maximise the sensitivity of the test; too short an oligonucleotide may be insufficiently specific for the polymorphic site, whereas too long an oligonucleotide may not show enough difference in binding affinity according to whether the EcoRI site is present or not.
  • Differential hybridisation can be demonstrated by showing that an oligonucleotide imperfectly matched to the test nucleic acid forms a duplex which is denatured at a temperature lower than that required to denature a perfectly matched duplex. This temperature difference is commonly detected using radioactively labelled oligonucleotides with the test nucleic acid immobilised on membranes (ie. as in the Southern or Northern blot).
  • radioactively labelled oligonucleotides with the test nucleic acid immobilised on membranes (ie. as in the Southern or Northern blot).
  • Other methods available include the use of hydroxylapatite which binds double stranded nucleic acids, in situ hybridisation, and enzymes (eg. RNase A) which cut duplexes at mismatched regions, denaturing gradient gels, oligonucleotide ligation assays or indeed by direct sequencing.
  • PCR polymerase chain reaction
  • the polymerase chain reaction may be used to amplify the DNA sequence which would include the polymorphic (eg EcoRI) site if present.
  • the probe is made to the sheep PrP sequence and hybridises to the amplified DNA. Examples of PCR oligonucleotides (marked on Figure 5) for the EcoRI polymorphism are as follows :-
  • genomic DNA can be cut with EcoRI and formed into a library in, for example, a lambda vector (e.g. lambda 1049). Clones are selected by positive hybridisation to a suitable probe (e.g. pEA974) and sequenced between the coding region and the 5' EcoRI site.
  • a suitable probe e.g. pEA974
  • This polymorphism in the coding region may be detected by DNA sequence analysis or by differential hybridisation etc as detailed above or by sequence analysis of the polypeptide product.
  • the PrP may be isolated by the methods given in Bendheim et al (1986), the EMBO Journal, 5(10), 2591-2597, and then sequenced by known peptide sequencing methods, for example using the ABI A470 protein sequenator with on-line h.p.l.c. analysis on a 120A pth-analyser (Applied Biosystems, Calif., USA).
  • the allele specific oligonucleotides needed to detect this new polymorphism in the sheep PrP gene are two strands of synthetic DNA each a perfect match for one of the polymorphic forms ie. differing only at one nucleotide (which shoould be internal to the sequence). Examples of these are:- (A) CAA GAC CAA TGA TAT GGC TAG GTG ACC AGA and (B) CAA GAC CAA TGA TAT GAC TAG GTG ACC AGA. Note:- These strands and their complementary strands will both work on DNA, whereas the complementary strands will work only on RNA . The length of the oligonucleotides could be different from A and B. They must however be long enough to hybridise specifically to the PrP sequence at the polymorphic region but short enough to be destabilised by the mismatched base.
  • a further aspect of the invention provides a kit for use in such test methods.
  • the kit may comprise the required restriction enzyme and a (labelled) probe.
  • the enzyme may be supplied separately (since many are widely available) so that the kit just comprises the probe.
  • the kit is used with standard Southern biottins procedures. in the case of a kit for use in PCR procedures, the kit will comprise the PCR primer oligonucleotides and. optionally, a probe for use in Southern biottins procedures.

Abstract

On a découvert qu'il y a au moins trois sites polymorphiques dans le gène pour la PrP (la protéine ''prion'') qui sont liés à la susceptibilité qu'a un bovin ou un ovin (notamment un mouton) de développer l'encéphalopathie spongiforme bovine. Dans la région de non codage 5', deux polymorphismes de ce type gouvernent le clivage par l'EcoIII et l'HindIII respectivement et, dans la région de codage, le troisième polymorphisme modifie le codon 171 de CGG en CAG (arginine en glutamine). Ces polymorphismes peuvent être détectés par des titrages traditionnels utilisant l'EcoRI et l'HindIII ou des enzymes équivalents, suivis par un titrage du type ''Southern blot''; par une analyse des séquences d'ADN, par exemple au moyen de procédés par réaction en chaîne de polymérase (PCR); ou par l'analyse des séquences peptidiques.
