  • PCR includes three steps of denaturation, annealing, and extension between template DNA and primers as one cycle, which is repeated in cycles to amplify DNA fragments.
  • the three repeated steps of denaturation, annealing, and extension of PCR are performed at three different temperatures, and each step lasts for a short time.

  • HindIII recognizes specific sites and cuts, which can also meet the requirements of being a transcription template, that is, the sticky end 5' protrudes and the end after cleavage is A, but it is impossible to design the terminal sequence of the transcription template chain to be a polyA sequence, that is, the mRNA product transcribed by the HindIII enzyme cleavage product will definitely have the sequence AGCU at the 3' end. This sequence has been proven to affect the translation ability of mRNA.

Description

一种无细胞制备mRNA转录模板的方法A method for preparing mRNA transcription template without cells 技术领域Technical Field
本发明属生物工程领域,具体涉及一种无细胞制备mRNA转录模板的方法。The invention belongs to the field of bioengineering, and in particular relates to a method for preparing mRNA transcription template without cells.
背景技术Background technique
PCR技术,聚合酶链式反应简称PCR,是以DNA半保留复制机制为基础,发展的体外酶促,扩增特定核酸片段的一种方法。通常PCR包括模板DNA与引物之间的变性、退火、延伸三步反应为一个周期,循环进行,使得DNA片段得以扩增。PCR的变性、退火、延伸的这三个循环重复的步骤在三个不同的温度下进行,并且每个步骤持续的时间较短,并且PCR过程对温度非常敏感,这使得PCR过程难以放大体系,在大规模制备DNA时难以应用。PCR technology, polymerase chain reaction for short, is a method of in vitro enzymatic amplification of specific nucleic acid fragments based on the semi-conservative replication mechanism of DNA. Usually, PCR includes three steps of denaturation, annealing, and extension between template DNA and primers as one cycle, which is repeated in cycles to amplify DNA fragments. The three repeated steps of denaturation, annealing, and extension of PCR are performed at three different temperatures, and each step lasts for a short time. In addition, the PCR process is very sensitive to temperature, which makes it difficult to amplify the PCR process and difficult to apply in large-scale preparation of DNA.
细菌发酵技术,通过将目标质粒导入到细菌中,质粒DNA分子持续稳定地处于染色体外的游离状态,随着染色体的复制而复制,并通过细胞分裂传递到后代,通过细菌的发酵,大量富集菌体后,碱性裂解细胞,再通过质粒的分离与纯化后,可得到大量的质粒DNA。质粒发酵过程是对活生物体的操作,对于生产环境及设备需要清洁及验证,废弃物的排放等要求较为严格,并且细菌发酵需要菌种建库,在整个工艺流程上更为复杂和耗时。在质粒发酵时,质粒复制对于细菌来说是高负荷过程,容易导致质粒序列的不稳定,对于mRNA领域,模板质粒的polyA极易在质粒发酵的过程中丢失,但polyA对于mRNA的稳定及翻译效果极为重要,这对于mRNA领域的模板制备是种缺陷。Bacterial fermentation technology, by introducing the target plasmid into bacteria, the plasmid DNA molecules are continuously and stably in a free state outside the chromosome, replicated as the chromosome replicates, and passed to the offspring through cell division. After a large amount of bacterial enrichment through bacterial fermentation, the cells are alkaline lysed, and a large amount of plasmid DNA can be obtained after separation and purification of the plasmid. The plasmid fermentation process is an operation on living organisms, and the production environment and equipment need to be cleaned and verified, and the discharge of wastes has strict requirements. In addition, bacterial fermentation requires strain library construction, which is more complicated and time-consuming in the entire process. During plasmid fermentation, plasmid replication is a high-load process for bacteria, which can easily lead to instability of the plasmid sequence. For the mRNA field, the polyA of the template plasmid is very easy to be lost during the plasmid fermentation process, but polyA is extremely important for the stability and translation effect of mRNA, which is a defect for template preparation in the mRNA field.
现有的闭合线性DNA制备方法,是在至少一种引物存在下,使包含至少一个原核端粒酶序列的DNA模板与至少一种DNA聚合酶接触后进行扩增反应,然后加入原核端粒酶后,识别扩增产物的原核端粒酶的序列形成大量的闭合线性DNA。该技术生产的线性闭合DNA被称为dbDNA,并被证明dbDNA形式的DNA疫苗效果与传统发酵生产的DNA疫苗的表达量效果相当。该技术可以dbDNA为模板继续扩增生产dbDNA,完全避免发酵过程。该技术的劣势在于限定了使用原核端粒酶酶切成闭合线性DNA,在序列上有限制。The existing method for preparing closed linear DNA is to contact a DNA template containing at least one protelomerase sequence with at least one DNA polymerase in the presence of at least one primer to perform an amplification reaction, and then after adding protelomerase, the protelomerase sequence that recognizes the amplified product forms a large amount of closed linear DNA. The linear closed DNA produced by this technology is called dbDNA, and it has been proven that the effect of DNA vaccines in the form of dbDNA is equivalent to the expression effect of DNA vaccines produced by traditional fermentation. This technology can continue to amplify and produce dbDNA using dbDNA as a template, completely avoiding the fermentation process. The disadvantage of this technology is that it is limited to using protelomerase to cut into closed linear DNA, which is limited in sequence.

(Modification of antigen-encoding RNA increases stability, translational efficacy, and T-cell stimulatory capacity of dendritic cells. 2006 Dec 15; 108(13): 4009-17.) disclosed that enzymatic digestion of mRNA with type IIS restriction endonucleases and non-type IIS restriction endonucleases would cause a non-polyA sequence to protrude from the polyA sequence; and disclosed that compared with Sap I digestion, the polyA obtained had an additional sequence "ACUAG", and indicated that mRNA with redundant polyA sequences had poor expression effects.
CN103080337B中公开了在mRNA领域采用原核端粒酶酶切时会在polyA后面多出原 核端粒酶识别序列,多出来的序列比一般限制性内切酶多余的序列还要长;并且原核端粒酶酶切会导致末端是环状的结构,无法保证在DNA转录到RNA时转录终止的位置,这极可能无法保证mRNA药物的质量稳定。CN103080337B discloses that when protelomerase is used to cut mRNA, an additional protelomeric residue will appear after polyA. The extra sequence of telomerase recognition sequence is longer than that of general restriction endonucleases; and protelomerase cleavage will result in a circular structure at the end, which cannot guarantee the position of transcription termination when DNA is transcribed to RNA, which is very likely to fail to ensure the stable quality of mRNA drugs.

本发明涉及无细胞制备线性DNA分子的方法,利用滚环扩增的原理,在一种或者多种引物的存在下,在至少一种DNA聚合酶的接触下进行滚环扩增,并且引物能以扩增的产物为模板继续扩增而形成互补双链,并由DNA聚合酶的链置换功能形成多分支扩增反应,从而达到指数扩增。并且由于DNA聚合酶的高保真性及持续合成能力可使polyA序列在扩增过程中稳定无增损。The present invention relates to a method for preparing linear DNA molecules without cells, which utilizes the principle of rolling circle amplification, performs rolling circle amplification in the presence of one or more primers and in contact with at least one DNA polymerase, and the primers can continue to amplify using the amplified product as a template to form a complementary double strand, and form a multi-branch amplification reaction by the strand displacement function of the DNA polymerase, thereby achieving exponential amplification. In addition, due to the high fidelity and continuous synthesis ability of the DNA polymerase, the polyA sequence can be stable without gain or loss during the amplification process.
采用本方法一方面可以不用考虑polyA在细菌发酵过程中的丢失,从而减少了序列筛选的工作量。另一方面,本方法筛选利用的限制性内切酶可以保持polyA的原始长度,与原核端粒酶酶切相比,既可以得到含有无增无损的原始polyA的DNA模板,即得到的DNA模板polyA不含有多余序列,经转录后的mRNA具有良好的翻译效果;也可以得到酶切更为彻底的DNA模板,从而减少分子损失、减少后续转录时生成的杂带,提高产量、并减轻纯化步骤的工作量、提高效率。On the one hand, the method can be used without considering the loss of polyA during bacterial fermentation, thereby reducing the workload of sequence screening. On the other hand, the restriction endonuclease used in the method can maintain the original length of polyA. Compared with protelomerase digestion, a DNA template containing the original polyA without any increase or loss can be obtained, that is, the obtained DNA template polyA does not contain any redundant sequence, and the transcribed mRNA has a good translation effect; a DNA template with more thorough digestion can also be obtained, thereby reducing molecular loss, reducing the miscellaneous bands generated during subsequent transcription, increasing yield, and reducing the workload of the purification step and improving efficiency.
本发明的无细胞制备mRNA转录模板的方法,与其他制备方法如PCR扩增法相比可实现大规模制备,与细菌发酵法相比增加了polyA的稳定性并且在工艺上不涉及活体生物的培养,简化了制备工艺,所以在mRNA领域是更具有优势的制备DNA模板的方法。Compared with other preparation methods such as PCR amplification method, the cell-free method for preparing mRNA transcription templates of the present invention can achieve large-scale preparation, and compared with the bacterial fermentation method, the stability of polyA is increased and the process does not involve the cultivation of living organisms, thereby simplifying the preparation process. Therefore, it is a more advantageous method for preparing DNA templates in the mRNA field.

实施例1Example 1
本实施例提供本发明所述无细胞制备mRNA转录模板的方法,并比较限制性内切酶 BspQ I和原核端粒酶TelN酶切的效果。This example provides a method for preparing mRNA transcription templates without cells according to the present invention, and compares restriction endonucleases Effects of BspQ I and protelomerase TelN digestion.
(1)得到至少包含一个回文序列的环状DNA模板pRCA1-GFP:(1) Obtaining a circular DNA template pRCA1-GFP containing at least one palindromic sequence:
典型的DNA质粒从5’到3’包含T7启动子序列,5’UTR序列,CDS序列,3’UTR序列和polyA序列。本实例在已有质粒SEQ ID NO.7上进行改造,以得到至少包含一个回文序列的环状DNA模板,改造步骤如下:A typical DNA plasmid contains a T7 promoter sequence, a 5'UTR sequence, a CDS sequence, a 3'UTR sequence and a polyA sequence from 5' to 3'. This example modifies the existing plasmid SEQ ID NO.7 to obtain a circular DNA template containing at least one palindromic sequence. The modification steps are as follows:
①PCR:使用SEQ ID NO.1和SEQ ID NO.2为引物,已有质粒为模板,takara公司的PrimeSTAR Max DNA Polymerase为聚合酶进行PCR扩增,得到PCR产物。①PCR: Use SEQ ID NO.1 and SEQ ID NO.2 as primers, existing plasmid as template, and Takara's PrimeSTAR Max DNA Polymerase as polymerase to perform PCR amplification to obtain PCR product.
②酶切:对PCR产物采用NEB公司的Dpn I进行模板消化,再对消化后的产物采用NEB公司的T5核酸外切酶进行处理。② Enzyme digestion: The PCR product was digested with Dpn I from NEB, and then the digested product was treated with T5 nuclease from NEB.
③转化:将T5核酸外切酶的酶切产物经大肠杆菌化学转化转至Stbl2菌株中。③Transformation: The cleavage product of T5 exonuclease is transferred into Stbl2 strain via chemical transformation of Escherichia coli.
④测序:对转化子进行测序,得到包含一个回文序列的质粒,命名为pRCA1-GFP,其序列为SEQ ID NO.3。④ Sequencing: The transformants were sequenced to obtain a plasmid containing a palindromic sequence, named pRCA1-GFP, and its sequence is SEQ ID NO.3.
(2)得到至少包含两个回文序列的环状DNA模板pRCA2-GFP:(2) Obtaining a circular DNA template pRCA2-GFP containing at least two palindromic sequences:
再使用SEQ ID NO.4和SEQ ID NO.5为引物,pRCA1-GFP为模板,经过上述同样操作构建至少含有两个回文序列的质粒,命名为pRCA2-GFP,其序列为SEQ ID NO.6。






Then, using SEQ ID NO.4 and SEQ ID NO.5 as primers and pRCA1-GFP as a template, a plasmid containing at least two palindromic sequences was constructed through the same operation as above, and the plasmid was named pRCA2-GFP, and its sequence is SEQ ID NO.6.






(3)使pRCA1-GFP和pRCA2-GFP与DNA聚合酶接触,对其进行滚环扩增,:(3) Contacting pRCA1-GFP and pRCA2-GFP with DNA polymerase and performing rolling circle amplification:
①配置滚环扩增的体系,如表1所示。① Configure the rolling circle amplification system as shown in Table 1.
表1
Table 1
总体积为95μL,滚环扩增的引物为SEQ ID NO.8。The total volume is 95μL, and the primer for rolling circle amplification is SEQ ID NO.8.
②DNA模板与DNA聚合酶接触:② DNA template contacts DNA polymerase:
于95℃变性5min,再加入5μL的phi29DNA聚合酶,于30℃反应3h。Denature at 95°C for 5 min, add 5 μL of phi29 DNA polymerase, and react at 30°C for 3 h.
(4)扩增的DNA产物与限制性内切酶接触:(4) The amplified DNA product is contacted with a restriction endonuclease:
①首先将扩增产物进行超滤换液:①First, ultrafilter the amplified product and replace the solution:
对(3)中扩增的产物进行超滤换液,每次加400μl无酶水,3000g离心7min,重复操作5次,最终定容至45μl。The product amplified in (3) was ultrafiltrated and the solution was replaced by adding 400 μl of enzyme-free water each time. The solution was centrifuged at 3000 g for 7 min. The operation was repeated 5 times and the final volume was adjusted to 45 μl.
②然后进行酶切实验:②Then carry out enzyme digestion experiment:
本次反应中同时采用限制性内切酶BspQ I和原核端粒酶TelN进行酶切,方便后续对比二者的差异。In this reaction, restriction endonuclease BspQ I and protelomerase TelN were used for enzyme digestion to facilitate subsequent comparison of the differences between the two.
限制性内切酶BspQ I酶切,酶切体系如表2所示。 The restriction endonuclease BspQ I was used for digestion. The digestion system is shown in Table 2.
表2
Table 2
50℃反应60min,75℃灭活5min。React at 50℃ for 60min and inactivate at 75℃ for 5min.
原核端粒酶TelN酶切,酶切体系如表3所示。Protelomerase TelN digestion, the digestion system is shown in Table 3.
表3
table 3
30℃反应60min,75℃灭活5min。React at 30℃ for 60min and inactivate at 75℃ for 5min.
对酶切后的产物进行琼脂糖凝胶电泳检测,结果如图2所示。其中,条带1-4:pRCA1-GFP用原核端粒酶TelN酶切产物。条带5-6:pRCA1-GFP用限制性内切酶BspQ I酶切产物。条带7-10:pRCA2-GFP用原核端粒酶TelN酶切产物。条带11-12:pRCA2-GFP用限制性内切酶BspQ I酶切产物。The digested products were detected by agarose gel electrophoresis, and the results are shown in Figure 2. Bands 1-4: products of pRCA1-GFP digested with protelomerase TelN. Bands 5-6: products of pRCA1-GFP digested with restriction endonuclease BspQ I. Bands 7-10: products of pRCA2-GFP digested with protelomerase TelN. Bands 11-12: products of pRCA2-GFP digested with restriction endonuclease BspQ I.
由图2可知,条带5-6与1-4相比含有更少的杂带,11-12与7-10同样杂带更少,极有可能是多连体酶切不彻底。可以看出限制性内切酶BspQ I比原核端粒酶TelN具有更优的酶切效果。As shown in Figure 2, bands 5-6 contain fewer impurities than bands 1-4, and bands 11-12 and 7-10 also contain fewer impurities, which is most likely due to incomplete digestion of the concatemer. It can be seen that the restriction endonuclease BspQ I has a better digestion effect than the protelomerase TelN.
③回收酶切产物并定量:③Recover the enzyme digestion products and quantify them:
使用Omega公司胶回收试剂盒对目的条带进行胶回收,采用ThermoFisher公司nanodrop进行核酸定量。The target bands were recovered by gel recovery kit from Omega Company, and nucleic acid quantification was performed using nanodrop from ThermoFisher Company.
(5)使用(4)中所得到的DNA模板进行转录,配置体系如表4所示。(5) Using the DNA template obtained in (4) for transcription, the configuration system is shown in Table 4.
表4
Table 4
①转录:配置好后,分别加入pRCA1-GFP/pRCA2-GF分别加入原核端粒酶TelN和限制性内切酶BspQ I酶切后回收的DNA模板,以及原有质粒发酵后酶切并回收的DNA模板为对照。于37℃反应4h。① Transcription: After preparation, add pRCA1-GFP/pRCA2-GF, DNA templates recovered after protelomerase TelN and restriction endonuclease BspQ I digestion, and DNA templates recovered after digestion of the original plasmid after fermentation as controls. React at 37°C for 4 hours.
②消化:然后加入DNaseⅠ于37℃反应30min消化模板。试剂均来源于ThermoFisher。②Digestion: Then add DNase I and react at 37℃ for 30min to digest the template. All reagents are from ThermoFisher.
③纯化:然后采用ThermoFisher公司MEGAclearTM Transcription Clean-Up Kit进行RNA纯化,然后进行琼脂糖凝胶电泳检测,结果如图3所示。其中,泳道1:mRNA-pRCA1-GFP–TelN。泳道2:mRNA-pRCA2-GFP–TelN。泳道3:mRNA-pRCA1-GFP-BspQ I。③Purification: ThermoFisher MEGAclear TM Transcription Clean-Up Kit was then used to purify RNA, and then agarose gel electrophoresis was performed. The results are shown in Figure 3. Lane 1: mRNA-pRCA1-GFP–TelN. Lane 2: mRNA-pRCA2-GFP–TelN. Lane 3: mRNA-pRCA1-GFP-BspQ I.
4:mRNA-pRCA2-GFP-BspQ I。4: mRNA-pRCA2-GFP-BspQ I.
5:阳性对照mRNA-GFP。5: Positive control mRNA-GFP.
由图3可知,泳道1和2中原核端粒酶酶切回收的主条带(Marker自上往下数第7条带)较泳道3和4中限制性内切酶酶切回收的主条带浅,并且泳道1和2的主带上方还有多条极浅的条带。可知原核端粒酶在DNA模板酶切时不够彻底,从而容易在后续转录时生成更多的杂带(原核端粒酶酶切时不彻底,会出现最小单元的多倍长度,如图1中6-7步骤示意图)。As shown in Figure 3, the main band recovered by protelomerase digestion in lanes 1 and 2 (the 7th band from the top of the marker) is lighter than the main band recovered by restriction endonuclease digestion in lanes 3 and 4, and there are many very light bands above the main bands in lanes 1 and 2. It can be seen that protelomerase is not thorough enough in digesting the DNA template, so it is easy to generate more miscellaneous bands in subsequent transcription (protelomerase digestion is not thorough, and multiple lengths of the minimum unit will appear, as shown in the schematic diagram of steps 6-7 in Figure 1).
(6)转录产物转染至293T细胞并观测荧光强度:(6) Transfect the transcription product into 293T cells and observe the fluorescence intensity:
采用jetMESSENGER transfection reagent将500ng的RNA转染至293T细胞,于12孔板培养24小时后进行检测。500 ng of RNA was transfected into 293T cells using jetMESSENGER transfection reagent and tested after 24 hours of culture in 12-well plates.
荧光显微镜观察结果如图4所示,由于原核端粒酶酶切回收的模板转录的RNA质量较差,转然后只能观察到极少的荧光。The results of fluorescence microscopy observation are shown in Figure 4. Since the quality of the RNA transcribed from the template recovered by protelomerase digestion is poor, only very little fluorescence can be observed after transcription.
流式细胞仪检测荧光强度与阳性率,三次重复实验数据绘图如图5所示。Fluorescence intensity and positive rate were detected by flow cytometry, and the data of three repeated experiments are shown in Figure 5.
图4中,原核端粒酶酶切后得到转录模板,再转录得到的mRNA表达效果较差,在GFP为报道基因时,荧光显微镜只能观察到极少数绿色荧光,而限制性内切酶BspQ I所得到的转录模板,再转录得到的mRNA能明细观察到绿色荧光。由图5可知,滚环扩增再由限制性内切酶酶切得到的转录模板,其转录的mRNA在表达效果上与传统质粒发酵得来的模板再转录mRNA效果相当。由图4和图5可知,原核端粒酶酶切不彻底,导致模板回收量降低,进而导致转录的mRNA杂带严重,回收量进一步降低;与之相比,限制性内切酶BspQ I酶切产物具有更优的完整性,具有更优的表达效果。In Figure 4, the expression effect of the mRNA transcribed from the transcription template obtained after protelomerase digestion is poor. When GFP is the reporter gene, only a few green fluorescence can be observed under the fluorescence microscope, while the mRNA transcribed from the transcription template obtained by restriction endonuclease BspQ I can clearly observe green fluorescence. As shown in Figure 5, the mRNA transcribed from the transcription template obtained by rolling circle amplification and then digested by restriction endonuclease has the same expression effect as the mRNA transcribed from the template obtained by traditional plasmid fermentation. As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the incomplete digestion by protelomerase leads to a decrease in the template recovery, which in turn leads to serious mixed bands in the transcribed mRNA and further reduces the recovery; in comparison, the restriction endonuclease BspQ I digestion product has better integrity and better expression effect.
实施例2Example 2
本实施例提供本发明所述无细胞制备mRNA转录模板的方法,并比较限制性内切酶BspQ I和原核端粒酶TelN酶切的效果。 This example provides the method for preparing mRNA transcription templates in a cell-free manner according to the present invention, and compares the effects of restriction endonuclease BspQ I and protelomerase TelN.
依实施例1中所述方法得到至少包含一个回文序列的环状DNA模板pRCA1-GFP和至少包含两个回文序列的环状DNA模板pRCA2-GFP。According to the method described in Example 1, a circular DNA template pRCA1-GFP containing at least one palindromic sequence and a circular DNA template pRCA2-GFP containing at least two palindromic sequences were obtained.
(1)使pRCA1-GFP和pRCA2-GFP与DNA聚合酶接触,对其进行滚环扩增:(1) Expose pRCA1-GFP and pRCA2-GFP to DNA polymerase and perform rolling circle amplification:
①配置滚环扩增的反应体系,如表5所示。① Configure the rolling circle amplification reaction system as shown in Table 5.
表5
table 5
总体积为95μl,滚环扩增的引物为SEQ ID NO.8。The total volume is 95μl, and the primer for rolling circle amplification is SEQ ID NO.8.
②使DNA模板与DNA聚合酶接触:②Contact the DNA template with DNA polymerase:
于95℃变性5min,再加入5μl的phi29DNA聚合酶,于30℃反应4h。Denature at 95°C for 5 min, add 5 μl of phi29 DNA polymerase, and react at 30°C for 4 h.
反应结束后,取2μl滚环扩增产物加入1μl DNA loading buffer,点样于1%琼脂糖凝胶中,160V 30min电泳后,结果如图10所示,其中,泳道1和2为pRCA1-GFP滚环扩增结果;泳道3和4为pRCA2-GFP滚环扩增结果。After the reaction, take 2 μl of rolling circle amplification product, add 1 μl DNA loading buffer, spot it on 1% agarose gel, and electrophoresed at 160V for 30 minutes. The results are shown in Figure 10, where lanes 1 and 2 are the results of pRCA1-GFP rolling circle amplification; lanes 3 and 4 are the results of pRCA2-GFP rolling circle amplification.
(2)扩增的DNA产物与限制性内切酶接触:(2) The amplified DNA product is contacted with a restriction endonuclease:
①首先将扩增产物进行超滤换液:①First, ultrafilter the amplified product and replace the solution:
对(1)中扩增的产物进行超滤换液,每次加400μl无酶水,3000g离心4min,重复操作5次,最终定容至60μl。The product amplified in (1) was ultrafiltrated and the solution was replaced by adding 400 μl of enzyme-free water each time. The solution was centrifuged at 3000 g for 4 min. The operation was repeated 5 times and the final volume was adjusted to 60 μl.
②然后进行酶切实验:②Then carry out enzyme digestion experiment:
本次反应中同时采用限制性内切酶BspQ I和原核端粒酶TelN进行酶切,方便后续对比二者的差异。In this reaction, restriction endonuclease BspQ I and protelomerase TelN were used for enzyme digestion to facilitate subsequent comparison of the differences between the two.
限制性内切酶BspQ I酶切,酶切体系如表6所示。The restriction endonuclease BspQ I was used for digestion. The digestion system is shown in Table 6.
表6
Table 6
50℃反应60min,75℃反应5min灭活。React at 50℃ for 60min and inactivate at 75℃ for 5min.
原核端粒酶TelN酶切,酶切体系如表7所示。 Protelomerase TelN digestion, the digestion system is shown in Table 7.
表7
Table 7
30℃反应60min,75℃反应5min灭活。React at 30℃ for 60min and inactivate at 75℃ for 5min.
原核端粒酶酶切和BspQ I酶切鉴定结果分别为图11和图12。The results of protelomerase digestion and BspQ I digestion identification are shown in Figures 11 and 12 , respectively.
图11中,泳道1和2为pRCA1-GFP滚环扩增后采用TelN酶切后效果;泳道3和4为pRCA2-GFP滚环扩增后采用TelN酶切后效果。由于pRCA1-GFP在设计时只包含一个切点,pRCA2-GFP包含两个切点,泳道1和2理论上应该各自只有一条带,其余较浅的条带为酶切不彻底产生的杂带;泳道3和4理论上各自均有两条带,其余为酶切不彻底产生的杂带。In Figure 11, lanes 1 and 2 show the effect of TelN digestion after rolling circle amplification of pRCA1-GFP; lanes 3 and 4 show the effect of TelN digestion after rolling circle amplification of pRCA2-GFP. Since pRCA1-GFP contains only one cleavage point when designed, and pRCA2-GFP contains two cleavage points, lanes 1 and 2 should theoretically have only one band each, and the remaining lighter bands are miscellaneous bands produced by incomplete enzyme digestion; lanes 3 and 4 should theoretically have two bands each, and the remaining bands are miscellaneous bands produced by incomplete enzyme digestion.
图12中,泳道1和2为pRCA2-GFP滚环扩增后BspQ I酶切后效果,理论上有两条带;泳道3和4为pRCA1-GFP滚环扩增后BspQ I酶切后效果,理论上有一条带。由图12可知,酶切结果与理论基本一致,杂带明显更少。In Figure 12, lanes 1 and 2 are the results of BspQ I digestion after pRCA2-GFP rolling circle amplification, and theoretically there are two bands; lanes 3 and 4 are the results of BspQ I digestion after pRCA1-GFP rolling circle amplification, and theoretically there is one band. As shown in Figure 12, the digestion results are basically consistent with the theory, and there are significantly fewer miscellaneous bands.
③回收酶切产物并定量:③Recover the enzyme digestion products and quantify them:
将②中的产物使用Omega公司胶回收试剂盒对目的条带进行胶回收,采用ThermoFisher公司nanodrop进行核酸定量。The product in ② was subjected to gel recovery of the target band using the gel recovery kit of Omega Company, and the nucleic acid was quantified using the nanodrop of ThermoFisher Company.
(3)使用回收到的DNA作为模板进行转录,转录体系如表8。(3) Using the recovered DNA as a template for transcription, the transcription system is shown in Table 8.
表8
Table 8
①转录:配置好后,分别加入pRCA1-GFP/pRCA2-GF分别加入原核端粒酶TelN和限制性内切酶BspQ I酶切后回收的DNA模板,以及原有质粒发酵后酶切并回收的DNA模板为对照。于37℃反应4h。① Transcription: After preparation, add pRCA1-GFP/pRCA2-GF, DNA templates recovered after protelomerase TelN and restriction endonuclease BspQ I digestion, and DNA templates recovered after digestion of the original plasmid after fermentation as controls. React at 37°C for 4 hours.
②消化:然后加入DNaseⅠ于37℃反应30min消化模板。试剂均来源于ThermoFisher。 ②Digestion: Then add DNase I and react at 37℃ for 30min to digest the template. All reagents are from ThermoFisher.
③纯化:然后采用ThermoFisher公司MEGAclearTM Transcription Clean-Up Kit进行RNA纯化,然后取等质量600ng的RNA进行琼脂糖凝胶电泳检测,结果如图13所示。图13中,泳道1为pRCA1-GFP滚环扩增后用原核端粒酶TelN酶切产物转录结果;泳道2为pRCA1-GFP滚环扩增后用限制性内切酶BspQ I酶切产物转录结果;泳道3为GFP质粒细菌发酵后用限制性内切酶BspQ I酶切产物转录结果。比较可知原核端粒酶酶切得到的模板进行转录得到的RNA,主条带较浅,并且有明显杂带,效果较差。③Purification: Then, the RNA was purified using the ThermoFisher MEGAclear TM Transcription Clean-Up Kit, and then 600 ng of RNA of equal mass was taken for agarose gel electrophoresis detection, and the results are shown in Figure 13. In Figure 13, lane 1 is the transcription result of the product of protelomerase TelN digestion after pRCA1-GFP rolling circle amplification; lane 2 is the transcription result of the product of restriction endonuclease BspQ I digestion after pRCA1-GFP rolling circle amplification; lane 3 is the transcription result of the product of restriction endonuclease BspQ I digestion after bacterial fermentation of GFP plasmid. It can be seen from the comparison that the RNA transcribed from the template digested by protelomerase has a lighter main band and obvious miscellaneous bands, and the effect is poor.
(4)转录产物转染至293T细胞并观测荧光强度:(4) Transfect the transcription product into 293T cells and observe the fluorescence intensity:
采用jetMESSENGER transfection reagent将500ng的RNA转染至293T细胞,于12孔板培养24小时后进行检测。500 ng of RNA was transfected into 293T cells using jetMESSENGER transfection reagent and tested after 24 hours of culture in 12-well plates.
荧光显微镜观察结果如图14所示,原核端粒酶酶切得到的RNA表达效果较差,一方面是因为原核端粒酶酶切不彻底,转录的RNA质量很差,表达的效果差;另一方面是因为原核端粒酶酶切后产物转录得到的RNA的3’端多出较长一段非polyA序列,从而翻译效果差。The results of fluorescence microscopy observation are shown in Figure 14. The expression effect of RNA obtained by protelomerase digestion is poor. On the one hand, this is because the protelomerase digestion is not thorough, the transcribed RNA is of poor quality, and the expression effect is poor; on the other hand, the 3' end of the RNA transcribed from the product of protelomerase digestion has a long non-polyA sequence, resulting in poor translation effect.
实施例3Example 3
本实施例与实施例1相比,滚环扩增体系如表9所示,其余条件同实施例1。进行扩增反应后,对产物进行定量对比,结果如下:Compared with Example 1, the rolling circle amplification system of this example is shown in Table 9, and the other conditions are the same as Example 1. After the amplification reaction, the products were quantitatively compared, and the results were as follows:
表9
Table 9
总体系94μL,于95℃变性5min,再加入6μL的phi29DNA聚合酶,进行后续反应。The total system was 94 μL, denatured at 95°C for 5 min, and then 6 μL of phi29 DNA polymerase was added for subsequent reaction.
本实施例与实施例1的结果比较见图15。The comparison of the results of this embodiment and embodiment 1 is shown in FIG15 .
对比例1Comparative Example 1
本对比例提供发酵方法制得的DNA模板经限制性内切酶BspQ I和HindⅢ酶切后的表达情况。This comparative example provides the expression status of the DNA template prepared by the fermentation method after being digested by restriction endonucleases BspQ I and HindⅢ.
采用同样的发酵方法制得DNA模板,分别采用限制性内切酶BspQ I和HindⅢ酶切线性化。限制性内切酶BspQ I和HindⅢ的识别位点和酶切位点如图6所示。The DNA template was prepared by the same fermentation method and linearized by restriction endonucleases BspQ I and HindⅢ, respectively. The recognition sites and restriction sites of restriction endonucleases BspQ I and HindⅢ are shown in Figure 6.
其中限制性内切酶Hind Ⅲ酶切后的线性化情况如图7所示,这说明Hind Ⅲ能彻底线 性化质粒。The linearization after restriction endonuclease Hind Ⅲ digestion is shown in Figure 7, which shows that Hind Ⅲ can completely linearize Personalized plasmid.
经限制性内切酶BspQ I和Hind Ⅲ线性化的DNA模板经转录后的电泳结果如图8所示。其中,泳道1对应限制性内切酶BspQ I线性化的DNA模板转录后,泳道2对应限制性内切酶HindⅢ线性化的DNA模板转录后。The electrophoresis results of DNA templates linearized by restriction endonucleases BspQ I and Hind Ⅲ after transcription are shown in Figure 8. Among them, lane 1 corresponds to the DNA template linearized by restriction endonuclease BspQ I after transcription, and lane 2 corresponds to the DNA template linearized by restriction endonuclease HindⅢ after transcription.
转录后得到的mRNA在转染至293T细胞进行翻译的情况如图9所示。其中,d2EGFP-120A-PCR法表示转录模板所用的是PCR产物,酶切法表示转录模板所用的是质粒的酶切产物。The situation of the mRNA obtained after transcription and transfected into 293T cells for translation is shown in Figure 9. Among them, the d2EGFP-120A-PCR method indicates that the transcription template used is the PCR product, and the restriction digestion method indicates that the transcription template used is the restriction digestion product of the plasmid.
结果分析Result analysis
由图7和图8可知,两种线性方法在转录水平没有太大差异。As shown in Figures 7 and 8 , there is not much difference between the two linear methods at the transcription level.
但是由图9来看,在以d2EGFP为报告基因进行检测时,两种线性方法得到的DNA模板的转录产物翻译水平差异较大:HindⅢ酶切的模板进行转录所得的mRNA进行转染后,GFP的翻译量低于BspQⅠ相应操作后得到的mRNA,极大程度上低于PCR法得到的转录模板。However, as shown in Figure 9, when d2EGFP was used as the reporter gene for detection, the translation levels of the transcription products of the DNA templates obtained by the two linear methods were quite different: after transfection of the mRNA transcribed from the HindⅢ-digested template, the translation amount of GFP was lower than that of the mRNA obtained after the corresponding operation of BspQⅠ, and was much lower than that of the transcription template obtained by PCR.
分析该结果可能的原因有两个方面:There are two possible reasons for this result:
1)质粒法所得的模板进行转录后的mRNA质量低于PCR法,导致翻译受到影响。1) The quality of mRNA transcribed from the template obtained by the plasmid method is lower than that of the PCR method, which affects the translation.
2)HindⅢ酶切后的产物进行转录后得到mRNA的3’末端引入了额外的序列,可能使mRNA翻译收到影响。2) After transcription of the product of HindⅢ digestion, additional sequences are introduced to the 3’ end of the mRNA, which may affect the translation of the mRNA.
在真核细胞中mRNA发挥功能一般需要3’末端polyA结构,BspQⅠ识别位点和切割位点是分开的,所以可以通过人为设计酶切后的粘性末端,使酶切之后的模板链以polyA结束。而HindⅢ识别特异性位点并切割,虽然也能满足作为转录模板的要求,即粘性末端5’突出且切割后的末端为A,但是无法设计转录模板链末端序列为polyA序列,即HindⅢ酶切后的产物进行转录所得的mRNA产物3’末端必定会带上序列AGCU。这段序列经验证会影响mRNA的翻译能力。 In eukaryotic cells, mRNA generally needs a 3' end polyA structure to function. The BspQⅠ recognition site and the cleavage site are separate, so the sticky end after enzyme cleavage can be artificially designed so that the template chain ends with polyA after enzyme cleavage. HindⅢ recognizes specific sites and cuts, which can also meet the requirements of being a transcription template, that is, the sticky end 5' protrudes and the end after cleavage is A, but it is impossible to design the terminal sequence of the transcription template chain to be a polyA sequence, that is, the mRNA product transcribed by the HindⅢ enzyme cleavage product will definitely have the sequence AGCU at the 3' end.
