Problems solved by technology

However, the main problem of sulfite conversion is that it is necessary to first denature the nucleic acid to be converted with sodium hydroxide, and then perform a long-term conversion and variable temperature process, and a sodium hydroxide solution is required for desulfonation.
In this process, it will lead to severe degradation and fragmentation of DNA
In addition to the problem of DNA degradation, there is no good solution to the DNA purification method after sulfite conversion. The current commercial kits basically use the spin column method for product purification, and require carrier RNA. At the same time, a multi-step washing process is required. Too many results in high DNA loss and reduced extraction efficiency, and this method requires a centrifuge, which is difficult to achieve automatic operation and has low purification efficiency, cumbersome operation, and low yield

Abstract

The invention discloses a DNA sulfite conversion and purification method. The method does need early sodium hydroxide denaturating treatment conducted on nucleic acid, adopts varying-temperature conversion conditions different from a commercialized reagent on the market and can perform a conversion experiment under the constant temperature condition. A magnetic bead method is adopted to perform nucleic acid purification after nucleic acid methylation conversion, a high-salt low pH value is utilized to perform nucleic acid separation and purification, then a low-salt high pH value is utilized to perform elution, the step of performing desulfonating by adopting sodium hydroxide on the market at present is omitted in the purification process, and meanwhile high-conversion-rate, high-quality and high-purity DNA can be obtained only by adopting a one-step washing step. The DNA sulfite conversion and purification method has the advantages of being quick, simple and convenient to operate and improving the conversion efficiency, the extraction efficiency and the extraction purity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of nucleic acid methylation conversion and purification, and relates to a method of converting DNA using sulfite under constant temperature conditions, denaturants and DNA protection reagents, and using purification reagents to purify the converted DNA, and is applied to various molecules biological research. Background technique [0002] Methylation refers to the process of catalytic transfer of methyl groups from reactive methyl compounds such as S-adenosylmethionine to other compounds. The most common methylation modifications are DNA methylation and histone methylation, and the present invention involves DNA methylation. [0003] DNA methylation refers to the transfer of active methyl groups to specific bases in the DNA chain under the catalysis of DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) using S-adenosylmethionine as the methyl donor. chemical modification process. DNA methylation generally occurs at the CpG site (cytosin...
