Embodiment 1

[0072] Example 1: Isolation and Detection of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Complex and Nontuberculous Mycobacterium 1

[0073] 1. Detection target and primer design

[0074] The target genes to be detected by PCR and melting curve analysis were the IS6110 gene of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (Mycobacterium tuberculosis, M. 16S rRNA gene. The universal primer was used as the forward primer to amplify the 16S rRNA gene of mycobacteria. NTM-1 and NTM-2, which are characteristic of nontuberculous mycobacteria, were used as reverse primers. These primers for target gene detection were designed using the Primer3 program.

[0075] (1) Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC)

[0076] 1) Target gene: IS6110

[0077] 2) Primers

[0078] a. Forward primer: 5'-cgaactcaaggagcacatca-3' (SEQ ID NO: 1)

[0079] b. Reverse primer: 5'-agtttggtcatcagccgttc-3' (SEQ ID NO: 2)

Embodiment 1-1

[0091]

[0092] (1) DNA separation

[0093] DNA was isolated from 186 mycobacterial species and 78 nontuberculous mycobacterial species, all identified in clinical subjects, and 7 standard ATCC mycobacterial species, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis (ATCC 25177) , Mycobacterium intracellulare (ATCC 13950), Mycobacterium scrofula (ATCC 19981), Mycobacterium kansasii (ATCC 12478), Mycobacterium fortuitum (ATCC 6841), Mycobacterium abscessus (ATCC 19977) and Mycobacterium avium bacilli (ATCC 25291)).

[0094] Species identified in clinical subjects (including 186 mycobacterial species and 78 nontuberculous mycobacterial species) in liquid medium (MGIT Mycobacterium medium) or solid medium (Ogawa medium) tested, or isolated directly from a sputum sample. ATCC standard species were grown in broth.

[0095] DNA was isolated from mycobacteria grown in broth as follows. Transfer 500 μL of MGIT broth cultured with mycobacteria into a 1.5 mL tube and centrifuge at 14,000 rpm f...

Embodiment 1-2

[0103]

[0104] Double real-time PCR and melting curve analysis were performed in the same manner as in Example 1-1, except that the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:5 was used as the reverse primer NTM-1.

Abstract

The present invention provides: primers for detecting mycobacterium tuberculosis and nontuberculous mycobacteria, the primers being specific respectively to a mycobacterium tuberculosis-specific IS6110 gene and a nontuberculous mycobacteria-specific 16S rRNA; a mycobacterium tuberculosis and nontuberculous mycobacteria detection kit including the primers; and a method for detecting mycobacterium tuberculosis and nontuberculous mycobacteria by means of a duplex real-time polymerase chain reaction using the primers and by means of a melting curve analysis. The present invention can provide a clinical diagnostic means that can quickly detect mycobacterium tuberculosis and / or nontuberculous mycobacteria simultaneously and more effectively, at a lower cost, since the invention does not use a sequence-specific probe.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and nontuberculous mycobacteria. More specifically, the present invention relates to a primer set capable of detecting specific nucleotide sequences of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and non-tuberculous A kit for detecting mycobacteria, and a method for simultaneously detecting tuberculosis mycobacteria and non-tuberculous mycobacteria by using the primer set through double real-time PCR and melting curve analysis. Background technique [0002] Nontuberculous mycobacteria are widely distributed in the environment, especially in wet soils, swamps, and rivers, and were considered non-pathogenic until their opportunistic character was discovered. In the 1980s, nontuberculous mycobacteria were identified as opportunistic pathogens of lung disease in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Additionally, the bacteria are also known to cause disease in other patients. With th...
