Description

一种生物芯片及其制备方法与应用 技术领域
本申请涉及生物化学领域。具体地,本申请涉及一种生物芯片,其制备方法和应用。
背景技术
生物大分子主要包括DNA、RNA、多肽、多糖等。由于这些生物大分子在医药、农业、食品、材料、环境等领域的重要用途,这些生物大分子的体外合成也成为研发的热点,并且具有巨大的市场前景。自二十世纪五十年代Todd,Khorana课题组第一次报道了DNA合成(Michelwn,A.M.,Todd,A.R.J.Chem.Soc.,1955;Gilham,P.T.,Khorana,H.G.,J.A.m.Cliem.Soc.,1958)以来,DNA的合成方法经历了长期的发展。目前经典的合成方法包括:八十年代发展起来的柱式合成法,以及九十年代发展起来的基于微阵列的高通量合成法。这些方法基本上为固相合成法,其中,以单个脱氧核糖核苷酸为单元进行合成,并且其合成过程大多涉及基于亚磷酰胺化学法的四步骤循环:即脱保护、偶联、加帽和氧化步骤。由于每一步反应的不完全性、伴随可能发生的副反应(如脱腺苷等)以及反应物浓度随反应进展的降低,随着DNA单链的延长,DNA合成的错误率急剧上升,产量急剧下降。此外,柱式合成法的缺点还在于试剂使用量大且通量低,导致合成成本较高,费时费力。而基于微阵列的合成方法虽然通量较高且试剂使用量少,但是其错误率相对较高,产量低,且不稳定。其他生物大分子如RNA、多肽、多聚磷酸等,其合成方法与DNA的固相合成类似,都是于固相载体上重复进行单循环的化学反应,其合成特点也类似,柱式合成有较低错误率,但是试剂消耗量大且通量低,不利于节省成本,而微阵列合成有通量高、物料使用量少,但是错误率相对较高且不稳定。所以寻找一种能实现高通量、低成本、低错误率的合成芯片尤为重要。
生物芯片,又称蛋白芯片或基因芯片,它们起源于DNA杂交探针技术与半导体工业技术相结合的结晶。该技术系指将大量探针分子固定于支持物上后与带荧光标记的DNA或其他样品分子(例如蛋白,因子或小分子)进行杂交,通过检测每个探针分子的杂交信号强度进而获取样品分子的数量和序列信息。生物芯片技术起源于核酸分子杂交。所谓生物芯片一般指高密度固定在互相支持介质上的生物信息分子(如基 因片段、DNA片段或多肽、蛋白质、糖分子、组织等)的微阵列杂交型芯片(micro-arrays),阵列中每个分子的序列及位置都是已知的,并且是预先设定好的序列点阵,是根据生物分子间特异相互作用的原理,将生化分析过程集成于芯片表面,从而实现对DNA、RNA、多肽、蛋白质以及其他生物成分的高通量快速检测。狭义的生物芯片概念是指通过不同方法将生物分子(寡核苷酸、cDNA、genomic DNA、多肽、抗体、抗原等)固着于硅片、玻璃片(珠)、塑料片(珠)、凝胶、尼龙膜等固相递质上形成的生物分子点阵。因此生物芯片技术又称微陈列(microarray)技术,含有大量生物信息的固相基质称为微阵列,又称生物芯片。生物芯片在此类芯片的基础上又发展出微流体芯片(microfluidics chip),亦称微电子芯片(microelectronic chip),也就是缩微实验室芯片。生物芯片同电子芯片一样,也是集成的,不过是生物材料的集成。像实验室检测一样,在生物芯片上检查血糖、蛋白、酶活性等,是基于同样的生物反应原理。所以生物芯片就是一个载体平台。由于生物芯片具有集成度高、通量大、灵敏度高、携带便携等潜在优点,因此其被广泛应用于多种场景,特别是在生物合成和检测方向,应用前景巨大。。
目前代表性的商业化微阵列合成仪,例如CustomArray合成仪,是将合成反应缩小到微米级别的反应孔内,一张芯片上有上万个反应孔,这样虽然提高了合成通量也一定程度上减少了原料的消耗,然而产量低,电化学反应不易控制,且错误率较高。另外,该芯片上还集成了温湿度传感器、控制电路等,制作工艺非常复杂,价格相对较为昂贵。Twist合成仪是利用高速的微量喷墨打印头作为单体等试剂的输送方式,在特殊处理的微米级的硅基芯片通孔上合成Oligo,然后再利用匹配的反应器与这些微孔对接,实现原位的PCR和PCA,从而直接得到大量的长片段的DNA分子。该生物芯片采用特殊硅基材料,上有特定化学修饰,通量较大,需要物理隔离,此外其芯片尺寸较大(尺寸与常规96孔板相当),且未进行商业化。Evonetix电路控制方式的合成仪,主要利用半导体芯片具有大规模并行控制的特性,实现了对于不同位点反应的独立控制。然而在实际应用中,一个重要的问题在于如何避免不同位点反应的相互影响和控制产物的输出。2018年初,英国Evonetix公司公布了一项基于半导体芯片控制的合成技术。Evonetix技术的重点在于理论上接近十亿个位点的Oligo合成和可实时监测的高保真DNA纠错组装技术,其控制合成过程的原理如下:在具有特殊设计的大规模可寻址的合成位点的封闭腔室内,加入低熔点的可反复加热的阻断材料(例如,正二十四碳烷),合成仪可以利用电路信号控制每个位点的通电与否,进而 选择是否加热该位点,在加热情况下,该位点上的特殊材料可吸附在该位点阻止后续通入的试剂在该位点上反应,如果后续需要在该位点进行合成,可用溶剂将该材料清洗掉,使得该位点暴露出来以进行合成反应,这样就实现了每个位点反应的单独控制。但该芯片集成除了特殊化学修饰外,还集成了电路控制,制作工艺较为复杂。
因此,本领域亟须新的技术突破,尤其是制作工艺简单,价格低廉,多检测通量,可重复利用,有识别功能的生物芯片。

在本发明的方法中,可使用各种方式来识别芯片上携带的编码。在某些优选的实施方案中,使用检测器(例如,通过识别数字,符号,图形,识别码(例如条形码,二维码),RFID标签,光信号(例如荧光,化学发光,拉曼光谱),量子点,磁信号,电信号,或其任何组合的检测器)来检测芯片上携带的编码,并使用处理器来分析所述检测器检测到的信号,从而识别芯片的身份(编码)。用于检测/识别数字,符号,图形,条形码,二维码,RFID标签,荧光,发光,量子点,拉曼光谱等各种方法和仪器是本领域技术人员熟知的,包括但不限于光信号识别器、磁信号识别器、电信号识别器、图像识别器、或其任何组合。例如,此类仪器可以为,二维条码检测仪、条形码检测仪、或RFID标签阅读器等。
芯片表面化学修饰
在芯片上添加了编码之后,对芯片的表面进行化学修饰,以达到该芯片能满足不同功能需求的目的。芯片表面修饰的分子的具体类型取决于芯片的实际应用。例如,用于合成生物大分子的芯片,其表面修饰有能够起始合成反应的分子;用于检测抗原的芯片,其表面修饰有特异性的抗体;用于筛选抗体的芯片,其表面修饰有特异性的抗原。
A.用于生物大分子合成
要在芯片表面合成不同种类的生物大分子,如DNA、RNA、多肽等,则每一种芯片需要其对应的芯片表面化学修饰;此外,还需要保证芯片表面有足够多的修饰分子,同时需要保证芯片表面修饰分子分布均匀,避免信号分布不均一。
为此,在一个具体方面,本申请提供了一种生物芯片,所述芯片上携带化学实体和编码,其中所述化学实体能够与反应试剂发生反应从而将反应试剂中的单体连接至所述化学实体的末端,所述编码与所述芯片具有唯一对应关系。
如本文所使用的,本发明的生物芯片是化学修饰的,即生物芯片的表面通过连接化学实体而进行了修饰。在具体实施方案中,所述化学实体为linker分子(连接分子),其能够与反应试剂发生反应(偶联反应或连接反应),从而将反应试剂中的单体连接至所述linker分子的末端。

Figure PCTCN2019124473-appb-000005
用于合成多肽的生物芯片以化学实体进行修饰,其中所述化学实体为固相法合成多肽的高分子载体(树脂)。这些树脂只有导入反应基团,才能直接连上第一个氨基 酸(初始氨基酸)。根据所导入反应基团的不同,把这些树脂及树脂衍生物分为氯甲基树脂、羧基树脂、氨基树脂或酰肼型树脂。BOC合成法通常选择氯甲基树脂,如Merrifield树脂;FMOC合成法通常选择羧基树脂如王氏树脂、2-Cl(Trt)-Clresin。起始氨基酸的固定主要是通过保护氨基酸的羧基同树脂的反应基团之间形成的共价键来实现的,形成共价键的方法有多种:氯甲基树脂,通常先制得保护氨基酸的四甲铵盐或钠盐、钾盐、铯盐,然后在适当温度下,直接同树脂反应或在合适的有机溶剂如二氧六环、DMF或DMSO中反应;羧基树脂,则通常加入适当的缩合剂如DCC或羧基二咪唑,使被保护氨基酸与树脂形成共酯以完成氨基酸的固定;氨基树脂或酰肼型树脂,则是加入适当的缩合剂如DCC后,通过保护氨基酸与树脂之间形成的酰胺键来完成氨基酸的固定。
在优选的用于合成多肽的生物芯片的技术方案中,用于修饰芯片的化学实体(linker分子)为羧基树脂,即末端含有可与羧基缩合反应的基团,如王氏树脂,2-Cl(Trt)-Clresin等,或类似化学结构的分子,优选为始端带有可与氨基反应的官能团、末端带有可与氨基酸单体羧基偶联反应的官能团,最终多肽合成完毕后,用酸处理时能解离的linker分子,中间可以是酯基、脂基、硫酯基、邻硝基苄基、香豆素基团、羟基、巯基、巯醚基、羧基、醛基、氨基、胺基、酰胺基、烯基、炔基中任意一种或多种官能团的化合物,如4-羟甲基苯甲酸,4-氯甲基苯甲酸,或取代的4-羟甲基苯甲酸,4-氯甲基苯甲酸等,优选的linker分子为4-羟甲基苯甲酸。

生物芯片的制备
在另一个方面,本发明提供了一种生物芯片的制备方法,所述方法包括以下步骤:
1)对芯片进行编码;
2)对芯片进行预处理;
3)对芯片的表面进行硅烷化处理;
4)对芯片的表面进行化学修饰;
5)任选地,对所述化学修饰进行检测或定量分析。
如本发明所使用的,“对芯片进行编码”,意指为芯片添加一个独特的身份标签。应当理解,此处的“编码”意指,任何可用于区分和鉴别芯片身份的特征。此类特征包括但不限于,数字,符号,图形,识别码,例如条形码,二维码。在优选的实施方案中,“对芯片进行编码”包括在芯片上添加二维码,该二维码与所述芯片是唯一对应的。换言之,不同的芯片上添加的二维码是彼此各不相同的。
在具体实施方式中,本发明采用激光打印的方式,将二维码打印在芯片上,作为可识别信号。为了适应不同的应用场景,需要设计制作不同抛光及二维码类型的芯片,即不抛光单面二维码、不抛光双面二维码、单抛单面二维码、单抛双面二维码、双抛单面二维码、双抛双面二维码芯片,还可以在特殊需要的应用场景对芯片表面进行特殊处理,如磨砂或纳米级点位修饰以增加表面积,以确保二维码芯片的识别快速、准确、高效。
以DNA合成用二维码芯片制作及识别为例,本发明采取了如下技术:本发明提出的用于DNA合成的芯片尺寸可根据应用情况调整,例如可以是2mm*2mm,甚至是1mm*1mm、0.5mm*0.5mm或更小,最小可到亚毫米级别(实例请见附图1)。由于芯片尺寸微小,在打码模式的选择上,采用了打点二维码模式,为了确保切割质量,无毛刺,本发明提出的二维码芯片采用机械切割。为了保证打码深度,选择红光的激光,保证点位深且清楚,即便在后续长时间使用过程中有些许磨损,仍然不会影响二维码的识别。为了解决大量芯片使用过程中不可避免的黏连问题,采用震荡反应容器,在保证使用过程中高效率的同时,不影响芯片表面芯片反应的均一性。芯片的识别,即芯片拍照、放大、识别过程。为了更好地进行芯片识别,在打码时要保证二维码中的点尽量大、尽量深。
在具体的实施方式中,可首先将多个彼此不同的二维码等间距打印在整张硅片上,例如二维码大小可以是1mm*1mm。然后将硅片切割为2mm*2mm的芯片,切割时确保二维码位于每张芯片的中央。
如本文所使用的,“对芯片进行预处理”是为了达到清洁芯片表面的目的,同时暴露出更多羟基,提高表面反应活性。所述预处理步骤包括酸处理、碱处理、超声、等离子清洗、丙酮清洗或其组合,其中酸可选自硫酸、盐酸、磷酸、食人鱼液等,碱可选自氢氧化钠、氢氧化钾等。在优选的实施方案中,预处理方法为先进行酸处理,然后进行等离子清洗;更优选地,预处理方法为先进行氢氧化钠处理,然后进行去离子 清洗和丙酮清洗。
如本文所使用的,“对芯片表面进行硅烷化处理”是指进行芯片表面氨基修饰。硅烷化过程可采用气相沉积法(CVD)、溶液浸泡、简易负压气相沉积法等一种或多种处理,其中硅烷化试剂为一端为烷氧基硅基团,一端为氨基的试剂,可选自APTMS、APTES等,优选的,采用APTMS为硅烷化试剂,进一步优选地,采用50%的硅烷化试剂。在优选的实施方案中,采用简易负压气相沉积法,在能保证高效硅烷化的同时,又能保证操作的简便,保证表面修饰的均一性。
如本文所使用的,“对芯片表面进行化学修饰”意指在芯片表面连接化学实体,化学实体的具体种类由芯片的具体用途决定。
当生物芯片用于合成核酸(DNA/RNA)时,所述化学实体优选为始端带有可与氨基反应的官能团、末端带有酸不稳定性保护基的羟基的linker分子,用酸处理时可将羟基保护基去除以暴露出羟基,中间可以是酯基、脂基、硫酯基、邻硝基苄基、香豆素基团、羟基、巯基、巯醚基、羧基、醛基、氨基、胺基、酰胺基、烯基、炔基中任意一种或多种官能团的化合物,优选的始端官能团为羧基,末端羟基保护基是三苯甲基,例如4,4’-二甲氧基三苯甲基(DMT),可以用二氯乙酸、三氯乙酸或三氟乙酸在有机溶剂(如二氯甲烷,乙腈)中的溶液处理时将其去除。
当生物芯片用于合成多肽时,所述linker分子为优选羧基树脂,即末端含有可与羧基缩合反应的基团,如王氏树脂,2-Cl(Trt)-Clresin等,或类似化学结构的分子,优选为始端带有可与氨基反应的官能团、末端带有可与氨基酸单体羧基偶联反应的官能团,最终多肽合成完毕后,用酸处理时能解离的linker分子,中间可以是酯基、脂基、硫酯基、邻硝基苄基、香豆素基团、羟基、巯基、巯醚基、羧基、醛基、氨基、胺基、酰胺基、烯基、炔基中任意一种或多种官能团的化合物,如4-羟甲基苯甲酸,4-氯甲基苯甲酸,或取代的4-羟甲基苯甲酸,4-氯甲基苯甲酸等,优选的link分子为4-羟甲基苯甲酸。
需要说明的是,生物芯片制备的步骤顺序,优选为先进行编码,后进行表面化学修饰,以便更好地保护修饰后的生物芯片表面,有利于生物芯片的后续应用。例如,当采用激光打印的方式将二维码打印在芯片上之后,经过预处理与硅烷化处理,最后再进行芯片表面化学修饰;如果将顺序颠倒,在对芯片进行预处理与硅烷化处理之后,进行芯片表面化学修饰,最后采用激光打印的方式将二维码打印在芯片上,则容易在激光打印过程中对芯片表面修饰的化学分子造成破坏,影响芯片后续的使用。
易于理解的是,在进行目标化合物合成时,芯片上携带的化学实体(linker分子)每一次接触反应试剂,都将使得反应试剂中的单体连接至所述linker分子的末端,使其延长。重复进行接触和反应,即可不断延长合成的化合物的长度,直至获得目标化合物。
在某些优选的实施方案中,在完成芯片上的合成反应后需要能够方便地将合成产物(目标化合物)从芯片上切割/分离。
例如,当目标化合物为DNA时,可通过氨解反应将目标化合物从芯片上切割下来。在某些优选的实施方案中,用于进行氨解反应的试剂可以选自氨水,氨气,甲胺,或其任何组合。在某些优选的实施方案中,氨解反应可以在选自下列的温度下进行:室温到120℃,例如,室温到60℃,60-90℃,90-120℃。在某些优选的实施方案中,氨解反应可以进行0.5h-48h,例如0.5-2h,2-5h,5-10h,10-18h,18-24h。在某些优选的实施方案中,在氨解反应后,对目标化合物(DNA)进行分离和纯化,例如,可使用MOP,PAGE,PAGE Plus,HPLC或其任何组合对目标化合物(DNA)进行分离和纯化。
例如,当目标化合物为RNA时,可通过氨解反应将目标化合物从芯片上切割下来。在某些优选的实施方案中,用于进行氨解反应的试剂可以选自氨水,氨气,甲胺,或其任何组合。在某些优选的实施方案中,氨解反应可以在选自下列的温度下进行:室温到120℃,例如,室温到60℃,60-90℃,90-120℃。在某些优选的实施方案中,氨解反应可以进行0.5h-48h,例如0.5-2h,2-5h,5-10h,10-18h,18-24h。在某些优选的实施方案中,在氨解反应后,对目标化合物(RNA)进行分离和纯化,例如,可使用PAGE,PAGE Plus,HPLC或其任何组合对目标化合物(RNA)进行分离和纯化。在某些优选的实施方案中,分离和纯化在无RNase的环境中进行。例如,在某些优选的实施方案中,采用HPLC纯化,并且用于分离和纯化的所有试剂和设备都不含RNase(即RNase-free),避免RNase污染。
例如,当目标化合物为多肽时,可通过加入洗脱剂将目标化合物从芯片上切割下来。在某些优选的实施方案中,用于进行洗脱的试剂(洗脱剂)可以选自氢氟酸、三氟乙酸,四氟硼酸,或其任何组合。在某些优选的实施方案中,可以在选自下列的温度下进行洗脱反应:室温到120℃,例如,室温到60℃,60-90℃,90-120℃。在某些优选的实施方案中,洗脱反应可以进行0.5h-48h,例如0.5-2h,2-5h,5-10h,10-18h,18-24h。在某些优选的实施方案中,在洗脱反应后,对目标化合物(多肽)进行分离 和纯化。例如,可使用高效液相色谱、亲和层析、毛细管电泳,或其任何组合对目标化合物(多肽)进行分离和纯化。
任选地,在修饰步骤之后,为了表征芯片的修饰质量,可采取多种技术手段对所述化学修饰进行检测或定量分析。例如,可首先通过加入酸对linker分子末端的带有DMT保护的羟基进行脱保护,对收集溶液的颜色进行定性观测,溶液为红色表明Linker连接成功,即芯片修饰成功。进一步的,对收集的红色溶液进行定量,即通过紫外可见分光光度计进行DMT定量,确定修饰完毕的芯片表面Linker的分子数,以确定芯片表面分子载量。最后将脱掉DMT的芯片与6-FAM的荧光单体偶联,将偶联完毕的芯片清洗干净后置于荧光显微镜下观测荧光,通过荧光的有无、强度及均一性,可定性该修饰芯片的质量,即芯片表面荧光强度高,同时荧光信号均一,表明该修饰后的芯片质量好。
生物芯片用于核酸合成
本发明的芯片可用于合成核酸(DNA/RNA)。用于固相合成核酸的一般方法和原理是本领域技术人员所熟知的。通常而言,核酸的固相合成一般都采用固相亚磷酰胺三酯法,其通过多个轮次的循环反应,将多个核苷酸逐个、按顺序地连接至芯片上,从而获得包含多个核苷酸的目标产物,其中,每个轮次的循环反应可涉及4个步骤:即,脱保护,活化/偶联,盖帽,和氧化。
在DNA/RNA合成的具体实施技术方案中,根据合成所需单体的种类及合成通量要求,首先选择芯片编码方式和制定识别分选方案,制作不同通量的DNA/RNA合成用生物芯片,和相应的识别器、分选器、及控制芯片移动、试剂液体引入和引出的驱动装置。通过识别器识别芯片上的特异性信号,将其分选入含有相应的偶联单体的“反应池”中,然后通过控制驱动器将脱保护试剂引入反应池中进行脱保护,待反应完毕后引出脱保护试剂,然后再根据反应池对应的待偶联的单体,引入偶联试剂进行偶联,引出偶联试剂,最后再依次引入盖帽试剂与氧化试剂,分别进行盖帽与氧化,至此一个循环结束。通过程序设定,不断重复该循环直至合成完毕,最终可集中收集芯片获得DNA/RNA库或利用识别分选技术以获得单独DNA/RNA片段(流程示意图请见附图2)。
在多肽合成的具体实施方案中,根据多肽合成所需氨基酸单体的种类及合成通量 要求,首先选择芯片编码方式和制定识别分选方案,制作不同通量的多肽合成用生物芯片,和相应的识别器、分选器、及控制芯片移动、试剂液体引入和引出的驱动装置。通过识别器识别芯片上的特异性信号,将其分选入含有相应的偶联氨基酸单体的“反应池”中,然后通过控制驱动器将脱保护试剂引入反应池中进行脱保护,待反应完毕后引出脱保护试剂,然后再根据反应池对应的待偶联的氨基酸单体,引入偶联试剂进行偶联,引出偶联试剂,至此一个循环结束。通过程序设定,不断循环直至合成完毕,最终可集中收集芯片获得多肽库或利用识别分选技术以获得单独多肽片段(流程示意图请见附图3)。
生物芯片用于生物检测
本发明所述的生物芯片,可用于生物检测,如抗原、抗体筛选、疾病诊断等,尤其是可同时进行多生物样本检测。抗原抗体有特异性结合力,即一种抗原能特异性的与对应的抗体进行亲和性结合,利用这种特异性亲和力,即可进行特异性的抗原抗体筛选。常规的生物检测芯片,只能同时检测一种生物样本,即如果要筛选抗体A,将待筛选的抗体库通过有特异性抗原A修饰的芯片,然后洗脱、解吸附来获得目标抗体A。或在单一芯片上修饰多种抗原位点,以达到高通量筛选的目的,但是此种修饰显然较为复杂,且不易区分。
A抗体筛选
本发明的生物芯片,可实现简单高通量的抗体筛选。下面以可筛选1000种抗体的修饰芯片为例,描述具体的技术应用方案:
将1000片芯片(芯片尺寸为2mm*2mm,甚至是1mm*1mm、0.5mm*0.5mm或更小)混合在一起,每一张芯片上修饰有特异性的抗原,然后将抗体库的溶液加到混合后的芯片上,并使其没过,由于抗原和抗体有特异性结合作用,接触反应一段时间后,特异性的抗体会与其相应的芯片上的抗原结合,然后移除抗体库,并加入清洗试剂清洗芯片,以确保残留的未结合的抗体移除干净。随后根据芯片上标识的二维码,将1000片芯片分选到1000个不同的位点反应孔中,然后向每个盛放有芯片的反应孔中加入解吸附试剂,将芯片上结合的抗体与芯片上的抗原解吸分开,并反复多次以确保抗体完全解吸附。然后将1000个反应孔中的溶液再单独转移到新的1000个反应孔中,即可以同时筛选得到相应的1000种特异性抗体,最后对得到的抗体进行分析表征,对有阳性结果显示的抗体进行纯化以得到高纯度的抗体。通过以上技术方案,即 可快速高效的得到大量高纯度的特异性抗体,完成抗体的高通量筛选。
本发明提出的抗体筛选方面的应用,由于经抗原修饰的芯片体积微小,并且制作简单,可大批量生产,同时配合本发明提出的通过芯片上标记二维码进行快速、高效的识别和分选,该抗体筛选的技术应用的通量可达上万甚至百万级别。
B抗原检测
本发明的生物芯片,可实现简单高通量的抗原检测。下面以可检测1000种抗原的修饰芯片为例,描述具体的技术应用方案:
将1000片芯片(芯片尺寸为2mm*2mm,甚至是1mm*1mm、0.5mm*0.5mm或更小)混合在一起,每一张芯片上修饰有特异性的抗体,然后将抗原库的溶液加到混合后的芯片上,并使其没过,由于抗原和抗体有特异性结合作用,接触反应一段时间后,特异性的抗原会与其相应的芯片上的抗体结合,然后移除抗原库,并加入清洗试剂清洗芯片,以确保残留的未结合的抗原移除干净,随后根据芯片上标识的二维码,将1000片芯片分选到1000个不同的位点反应孔中,然后向每个盛放有芯片的反应孔中加入解吸附试剂,将修饰芯片上结合的抗原与芯片上的抗体解吸分开,并反复多次以确保抗体完全解吸附,然后将1000个反应孔中的溶液再单独转移到新的1000个反应孔中,即可以同时筛选得到相应的1000种特异性抗原,最后对得到的抗原进行分析表征确认。通过以上技术方案,即可快速高效的完成抗原的高通量检测。
本发明提出的技术应用,由于其芯片体积微小,并且制作简单,可大批量生产,同时配合本发明提出的通过在芯片上打印二维码进行快速、高效的识别和分选,该抗原检测的技术应用的通量可达上万甚至百万级别。

实施例1.用于合成核酸(DNA/RNA)的芯片的制备
首先,委托广瑞特电子进行定制化的二维码芯片打印与切割。采用红光激光打印,二维码大小为1mm*1mm,将打印有二维码的裸硅片切割为2mm*2mm*0.45mm的微型芯片,每个微型芯片居中打印有特异性的二维码,使用食人鱼液对已经进行二维码打印、切割的芯片进行预处理,然后进行等离子清洗。之后,采用APTMS通过简易负压气相沉积法对预处理后的芯片进行硅烷化处理。最后,采用购自芜湖华仁科技的Universal Linker偶联于芯片上。
之后,通过加入酸对linker分子末端的带有DMT保护的羟基进行脱保护,对收集溶液的颜色进行定性观测,溶液为红色表明Linker连接成功,即芯片修饰成功。然后,对收集的红色溶液进行定量,即通过紫外可见分光光度计进行DMT定量,确定修饰完毕的芯片表面Linker的分子数,以确定芯片表面分子载量。或将脱掉DMT的芯片与6-FAM的荧光单体偶联,将偶联完毕的芯片清洗干净后置于荧光显微镜下观测荧光,通过荧光的有无、强度及均一性,可进一步定性该修饰芯片的质量,即芯片表面荧光强度高,同时荧光信号均一,表明该修饰后的芯片质量好。
具体修饰步骤如下:
1、配制100mL 0.1M NaOH溶液,分装于两个100mL烧杯中,每个烧杯放入2000片二维码常规芯片,手摇震荡清洗3min,首先使用去离子水清洗三次,丙酮清洗三次,晾干,使芯片表面洁净以便于后续进行硅烷化修饰。
2、配制100mL 50%的硅烷化试剂,分装于两个100mL烧杯中,每个烧杯放入2000片清洗过的二维码芯片,于超声仪超声30min,丙酮清洗5次,晾干。
其中,50%硅烷化试剂为:1%(APTES:PTES=1:1)的丙酮溶液,以总体积100mL为例,各组分为APTES 500μL、PTES 500μL和丙酮99mL。
3、于干燥箱80℃干燥10min,取出待后续实验。
4、取1000mg Linker、800mg HATU、2000μL DIPEA加入100mL乙腈中,摇匀后分装于两个50mL离心管中,每个离心管放入2000片硅烷化的二维码芯片,于垂直搅拌仪搅拌过夜,反应完成后,收集芯片,分别用乙腈、丙酮清洗三次,晾干。
之后,取出30片修饰的二维码芯片,使用TCA deblock洗脱芯片表面DMT,使用紫外可见分光光度计测定DMT的浓度,测定修饰二维码芯片的Linker接枝密度。
5、将修饰完毕,干燥后的芯片收集至50mL离心管中,待用。
与此同时,比较了1%、100%硅烷化试剂对芯片修饰的影响,步骤同上,只是分别使用1%、100%硅烷化试剂替代50%硅烷化试剂,其中1%硅烷化试剂为:1%(APTES:PTES=1:99)的丙酮溶液,以总体积100mL为例,各组分为APTES 10μL、PTES 990μL和丙酮99mL,100%硅烷化试剂为:1%(APTES:PTES=1:0)的丙酮溶液,以总体积100mL为例,各组分为APTES 1000μL、PTES 0μL和丙酮99mL。最终获得三种不同硅烷化配比的修饰芯片的Linker接枝密度,结果如表1所示。
考虑到芯片表面的Linker接枝密度,与实际目标化合物的合成效果并不是正相关关系,即不是接枝密度越高,芯片合成效果越好,因为这其中涉及到分子拥挤的问题。为了能够保证芯片表面分子数足够多的同时,又需要同时权衡芯片在实际合成使用过程中,连接上的寡核苷酸链不会太拥挤,以至于影响最终的合成质量及长度。因此,本实施例在摸索最佳硅烷化试剂配比时,需要综合考虑Linker接枝密度、合成单步效率以及产物纯度等因素。本实施例中,在获得上述不同硅烷化试剂配比修饰的芯片之后,将芯片用于合成T5DNA序列(即TTTTT(SEQ ID NO.15)),具体方法参见实施例3,最终获得的产物纯度与单步合成效率见表1。从表1的结果可知,当使用50%硅烷化试剂进行修饰时,Linker接枝密度虽然没有100%硅烷化试剂配比的高,但是其所得产物的纯度及单步合成效率最高。

首先混合所有芯片,通过识别器识别预先印制在芯片上的二维码,中央处理器根据识别器的识别信号,控制芯片分选器分选芯片,并按照预设的控制程序,将每一张芯片移动至期望的反应池中,然后通过控制驱动器将脱保护试剂引入反应池中进行脱保护,待反应完毕后引出脱保护试剂,引入清洗液对芯片进行清洗,然后再根据反应池对应的待偶联的单体,引入偶联试剂进行偶联,待反应完毕后引出偶联试剂,引入清洗液对芯片进行清洗,最后再依次引入盖帽试剂、氧化试剂和清洗液,分别进行盖帽、氧化与清洗,至此一个循环结束,完成一个碱基的添加/偶联。具体的操作步骤、所使用的试剂及反应时间,如表2所示。

S5.DNA的分离和纯化
待DNA合成完毕后,可以选择将所有芯片统一收集在一起,进行氨解,由此分离和纯化所有合成的DNA分子。或者,可以利用二维码对所有芯片进行识别,分选和收集目的芯片,然后对目的芯片进行氨解,由此分离和纯化目的DNA分子。
本实施例中共选取了5种不同类型的芯片进行T30DNA(序列为:TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT(SEQ ID NO.16))合成,其中这5种芯片为:常规芯片、100nm氧化芯片、300nm氧化芯片、磨砂石英芯片、透明石英芯片。具体步骤如下:
(1)实验1-T30
取40片常规芯片(规格:2*2*0.45mm,双面具有二维码),将其混合,根据合成的目标序列确定本次循环需要添加的单体,在芯片分选器分选之后,待合成相同单体的芯片被分选至同一个反应池,加入由75μL Cap A和75μL Cap B组成的盖帽试剂,将芯片浸泡在反应池中反应1次,把试剂排出之后再加入1次试剂,将芯片再次浸泡反应1次,两次共反应40s,然后排出盖帽试剂,加入乙腈清洗3次。排出乙腈加入去保护试剂TCA 150μL,反应15s,排出试剂后重新加入试剂再反应1次,15s。完成去保护步骤后,排出去保护试剂,加入250μL乙腈清洗3次。排出乙腈加入40μL亚磷酰胺单体T和60μL活化剂ACT,进行偶联反应60s,排掉试剂后重新加入试剂再反应1次,两次反应共120s,完成偶联步骤。排出偶联试剂,加入250μL乙腈清洗1次。排出乙腈加入由75μL Cap A和75μL Cap B组成的盖帽试剂,反应1次,排掉试剂后重新加入试剂再反应1次,两次反应共40s。排出盖帽试剂,加入250μL乙腈清洗1次。排出乙腈加入150μL氧化剂,反应20s,排掉试剂后重新加入试剂再反应1次,两次反应共40s,排出氧化试剂,加入250μL乙腈清洗3次,至此一个循环完成。将上述合成步骤循环30次,最后去保护,氨水氨解,处理后得到T30产物,进行Nanodrop定量测定单片合成量,并通过HPLC分析测定HPLC纯度,计算单步合成效率(单步合成效率由HPLC纯度分析获得,例如:合成T10的HPLC纯度为 80%,则单步合成效率为
Figure PCTCN2019124473-appb-000009
),HPLC检测结果见图4A。
并且需要注意,在首次循环的脱保护之前,先进行盖帽处理,以封闭芯片表面端部基团不完整的区域,使其无法偶联构建单元,从而提高合成效率。从第二次循环开始,不需要再次进行盖帽,而是从识别分选开始,历经“脱保护-偶联-盖帽-氧化”步骤,如此循环直至合成完毕。
(2)实验2-T30
取40片100nm氧化芯片进行T30DNA合成,具体步骤同实验1,HPLC检测结果见图4B。
(3)实验3-T30
取40片300nm氧化芯片进行T30DNA合成,具体步骤同实验1,HPLC检测结果见图4C。
(4)实验4-T30
取40片磨砂石英芯片进行T30DNA合成,具体步骤同实验1,HPLC检测结果见图4D。(5)实验5-T30
取40片透明石英芯片进行T30DNA合成,具体步骤同实验1,HPLC检测结果见图4E。
将上述5个实验的DNA合成结果进行汇总,结果如表3所示。从表3可知,使用透明石英芯片进行DNA合成,所得产物纯度和单步合成效率最高。相对于单步合成效率最低的100nm氧化芯片,单步合成效率提高了2.5%,即每一循环的合成效率由96.8%提高到99.3%,而整个合成过程需要30个循环,那么在经历整个合成过程后所得产物的纯度显著提高,由37.9%提高至81.0%。当合成的序列越长,反应循环数越多,产物纯度的提高就越显著。

为了进一步确认最佳合成载体,使用透明石英芯片进行14条59nt长度的寡核苷酸的合成,序列如表4所示,并进行基于一步法PCA/PCR反应策略的小片段基因组装、跑胶胶图验证目标条带正确性,最后通过切胶回收、TA克隆转化、送Sanger测序,通过分析比对测序结果,最终确定最佳固相合成载体。
表4

Figure PCTCN2019124473-appb-000013
具体步骤如下:
取42片透明石英芯片按照实施例3中的实验1的方法步骤进行寡核苷酸的合成,最后去保护,分别合成14条上表序列寡核苷酸,每条序列使用平行的3张芯片进行合成(即每条序列合成使用3组平行试验),总共合成42条。将42条引物3*(59nt-1-59nt-14),分成3组(14片/组)氨解,处理后得到目标3组59nt Mix产物各50μL。取10μL样品,分别加入4μL dNTPs、5μL Buffer、4μL首尾引物、0.5μL DNA聚合酶,用水将其体积补至50μL混匀,进行一步法PCA/PCR反应。使用降落PCR扩增35个循环后,产物于12℃保存。取2μL PCR产物点样至胶孔中,调节电压为180V,电泳时间为30min,进行跑胶检测。结果如图5所示。从图5中可看出,基于透明石英芯片合成的59nt引物,组装成的560bp基因条带,与标准合成引物对比清晰、正确。
另将条带正确的PCR产物切胶回收后,利用TaKaRa公司的TA克隆试剂盒(pMDTM19-T)进行克隆转化实验,菌落PCR验证条带正确的TA克隆转化子送Sanger测序。Sanger测试结果如表5所示,3组平行实验的平均错误率为0.34%。

经过对不同类型的二维码芯片进行化学修饰,以及基于修饰芯片进行基于浸泡-识别-分拣的一系列59nt寡核苷酸合成、基因合成测试,并对多种芯片合成HPLC分析结果进行对比,表明:经过化学修饰的二维码芯片,可以进行寡核苷酸的合成,且透明石英芯片的合成效果最好,相应的T30引物的单片合成量26.8pmol,HPLC纯度81.0%,单步合成效率达到99.3%,最终通过14条59nt引物合成、小片段组装、Sanger测序进一步验证了透明石英芯片效果更佳,且Mix组测序结果错误率可低至0.3%。
