Example Embodiment

[0076] Example 1 Cas12a protein detects single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) target (probe FAM label)

[0077] Single-stranded DNA (target-T1-R) is selected as the target sequence to test the response value of different Cas12a proteins to its detection.

[0078] 1. Preparation of crRNA: First, T7-crRNA-F and synthetic oligonucleotide T7-T1-24-R are used to anneal as shown in Table 5 to prepare transcription templates. Specifically, the paired oligonucleotides (4μM) were annealed in 1×PCR buffer (Transgen Biotech) in a total volume of 50μL, and then an annealing procedure was performed: initial denaturation at 95°C for 5 minutes, and then cooling from 95°C to At 20°C, use a thermal cycler to reduce 1°C per minute. CrRNA was synthesized using T7 High Yield Transcription Kit, and the reaction was carried out at 37°C overnight (about 16 hours). Then the RNA was purified using the RNA purification and concentration kit, and quantified with NanoDrop 2000C (Thermo Fisher Scientific), diluted to ...

Abstract

An application of a Cas protein, and a method and kit for detecting a target nucleic acid molecule are provided. The method includes adding a guide RNA, Cas12a and a nucleic acid probe into a reaction system containing a target nucleic acid molecule to be detected, and performing detection after a reaction is finished. Through the method, whether a sample contains a target nucleic acid sequence or not can be detected rapidly. Through combination with a nucleic acid amplification technique, the sensitivity of the method is greatly increased. According to characteristics of the method, the method is named as HOLMES (one HOur Low-cost Multiplex Efficient Simple assay), namely an assay method that is low-cost, multiplex, efficient and simple and can be achieved in about one hour. The method can be used for rapidly detecting pathogenic microorganisms, gene mutations, specific target DNAs, and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, in particular, the invention relates to a method for detecting target nucleic acid molecules. Background technique [0002] Specific detection of nucleic acid molecules (Nucleic acid detection) method has important application value, such as detection of pathogens, genetic disease detection and so on. In terms of pathogen detection, since each pathogenic microorganism has its unique characteristic nucleic acid molecular sequence, nucleic acid molecular detection for specific species can be developed, also known as nucleic acid diagnostics (NADs, nucleic acid diagnostics), in food safety, environment Microbial contamination detection, human pathogen infection and other fields are of great significance (O'Connor and Glynn 2010, Scheler, Glynn et al. 2014). Another aspect is the detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs, single nucleotide polymorphisms) in humans or other species. Understandi...
