Description

DNA SEQUENCING METHOD WHICH EMPLOYS VARIOUS NUCLEOTIDE MIXTURES AND KIT USED FOR THE SAME
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a DNA nucleotide sequence analysis method which employs dideoxynucleotide- mediated chain termination reaction, and more particularly, directed to a sequencing method for analysis of DNA sequence in more longer length through one step separation process than that can be analyzed by the conventional Sanger method, which is characterized in that DNA fragments are generated by using 2 kinds of nucleotide mixtures of which mol ratios of dideoxynucleotide to deoxynucleotide are different from each other.
Background Art
As is known, Sanger dideoxynucleotide-mediated chain termination method is the conventional method for analyzing DNA nucleotide sequence. In Sanger method, DNA nucleotide chains propagate through the reaction with deoxynucleotide (dNTP) which contains hydroxyl group substituted at C-3 position of pentose and are terminated through the reaction with dideoxynucleotide (ddNTP) which does not contains hydroxyl group substituted at C-3 position of pentose.
In Sanger method, 4 kinds of dNTP, such as deoxyguanosinetriphosphate (dGTP), deoxyadenosinetri phosphate (dATP), deoxytymidinetriphosphate (dTTP) and deoxycytidinetriphosphate (dCTP), are used as substrates which generate DNA fragments complementary to template DNA and 4 kinds of ddNTP, such as dideoxyguanosinetriphosphate (ddGTP), dideoxyadenosinetriphosphate (ddATP), dideoxytymidinetriphosphat (ddTTP) and dideoxycytidinetri phosphate (ddCTP), are used as substrates which terminate chain propagation reaction of complementary DNA fragments. DdNTP does not contain hydroxy group at the C-3 position of pentose, differently from dNTP. Therefore, in case that ddNTP is reacted with the end of complementary DNA fragments which are under propagation, the chain propagation reactions of complementary DNA fragments are terminated.
Therefore, in Sanger method, DNA fragments in various lengths of which the end are terminated with ddNTP, are generated. In the Sanger 's method, various kinds of complementary DNA fragments which correspond to the number of nucleotides of template DNA, are generated, and then are separated in order of molecular weight by electrophoresis . Thereafter, the nucleotide sequences of template DNA are recognized by determination of the terminal base of each complementary DNA fragments. However, despite of the convenience of Sanger method, it has been a drawback that DNA in length of only 500 to 700bps can be determined accurately due to the limitation of processivity of complementary DNA propagation reaction. For example, in order to recognize accurately and completely human cDNA of which average length is about 2Kb, DNA sequencing procedure should be repeated more than three times by means of partition of human cDNA. As explained above, Sanger method is time-consuming, very laborious and expensive process to be employed as a sequencing method for DNA in large length.
Meanwhile, in the so-called Shot gun method which has been known as a large scale nucleotide sequencing method for genomic DNA, full length DNA is partitioned into several DNA fragments and the sequence of base of each fragments are recognized separately. Thereafter, the sequence of each fragments are compared to each other by using computer, and thereby, full length DNA sequence can be analyzed by deletion of overlapping part. In the above Shot gun method, the time and labor required for analysis of full length DNA sequence can be reduced by means of the expansion of DNA length which can be recognized through one time analysis of DNA sequence. In general, in the conventional Sanger dideoxy nucleotide-mediated chain termination method, single DNA polymerase is employed. Thus, the short DNA fragments which correspond to 20 to 30bps of template DNA and the long DNA fragments which correspond to 600 to 700bps of template DNA, are generated in small amounts, whereas DNA fragments which correspond to 40 to 500bps of template DNA are generated in large amounts. Therefore, the concentration of short DNA fragments and long DNA fragments are relatively low and consequently, the nucleotide sequence of terminal portions of both ends of DNA are difficult to be determined than that of middle portion of DNA.
On the reasons of the above, the length of DNA which can be analyzed through one time analysis of nucleotide sequence is limited substantially. Therefore, various researchs for new method which can expand the length of DNA that can be recognized completely through one time analysis of nucleotide sequence by means of more accurate determination of the terminal portions of both ends of template DNA, have been tried for a long time.
Disclosure of Invention
Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a method which can determine more longer sequence of DNA through one time analysis of nucleotide sequence and a kit to be used for the method. The method of the present invention is an improvement of the conventional DNA sequencing method of Sanger, which can be applied for determining more longer DNA than that can be determined by Sanger method.
In the conventional DNA sequencing method by means of dideoxynucleotide-mediated chain termination reaction, the nucleotide mixture of which mol ratio of ddNTP to dNTP (hereinafter, the mole ratio of ddNTP to dNTP is represented as "ddNTP/dNTP") is about 0.02, that is ddGTP/dGTP is 0.02 to 0.05; ddATP/dATP is 0.02 to 0.058; ddTTP/dTTP is 0.02 to 0.1; and ddCTP/dCTP is 0.02 to 0.033.
The object of the present invention is achieved by providing a DNA sequence analysis method which employs more than two kinds of nucleotide mixtures of which ddNTP/dNTP value are different from each other, i.e., higher than that of the conventional Sanger method or lower than that of the conventional Sanger method.
In the present invention, relatively short length DNA fragments are generated by using the nucleotide mixture of which ddNTP/dNTP is higher than that of the conventional Sanger method, that is, ddGTP/dGTP is higher than 0.05, desirably not less than 0.1, more desirably not less than 0.15; ddATP/dATP is higher than 0.058, desirably not less than 0.116, more desirably not less than 0.174; ddTTP/dTTP is higher than 0.1, desirably not less than 0.2, more desirably not less than 0.3; and ddCTP/dCTP is higher than 0.033, desirably not less than 0.066, more desirably not less than 0.099. Also, in the present invention, relatively long length DNA fragments are generated by using the nucleotide mixture of which ddNTP/dNTP is lower than that of the conventional Sanger method, that is, ddGTP/dGTP is less than 0.02, desirably not more than 0.01, more desirably not more than 0.005; ddATP/dATP less than 0.02, desirably not more than 0.116, more desirably not more than 0.0058; ddTTP/dTTP less than 0.02, desirably not more than 0.015, more desirably not more than 0.01; and ddCTP/dCTP is less than 0.02, desirably not more than 0.0066, more desirably not more than 0.0033. Thereafter, DNA fragments in various length thus prepared are separated in order of molecular weight thereof to be determined the terminal base of each DNA fragments .
According to the method of the present invention, DNA fragments in various length which come up to 10 bps to more than 1,000bps can be obtained indiscriminately. Consequently, the terminal portion of both end of template DNA can be determined more accurately and completely. Thus, through the method of the present invention, it is possible to analyze the sequence of DNA in more longer length than length of 40 to 500bps that can be analyzed by the conventional Sanger method.
In the present invention, the nucleotide mixture of which ddNTP/dNTP is higher than that of the conventional Sanger method, generates relatively short length DNA fragment in a large amount, and the nucleotide mixture of which ddNTP/dNTP is lower than that of the conventional Sanger method, generates relatively long length DNA fragments. Thus DNA fragments in various length correspond to 10 to 1,000bps of template DNA, can be obtained. The DNA fragments in various length thus obtained are mixed together and then, separated through one step process in order of molecular weight thereof to be determined terminal base of each DNA fragments .
Therefore, according to the present invention, the sequence of the template DNA of 10 to 1,000bps can be determined more accurately and completely through one step separation process.
