Embodiment 1

[0034] Design, screening, comparison experiment and validation of PCR primers

[0035] The Human papillomavirus-18 sequence (Gene Bank ID: NC_001357) was obtained from the Genbank database of NCBI. According to the PCR primer design principle of molecular biology, 7 PCR upstream primer sequences with higher scores were obtained through bioinformatics calculation screening, and 7 The downstream primer sequences with higher scores are shown in Table 1.

[0036] The primers are artificially synthesized, and these upstream primers and downstream primers are randomly paired, and then PCR experiments and agarose gel electrophoresis are used to screen the primer pairs that can achieve the purpose of the present invention. The screening principle is: exclude primer pairs that cannot be amplified to obtain PCR products, exclude primer pairs that have non-specific amplification, and obtain primer pairs that can efficiently and specifically amplify the target HPV sequence.

[0066] Sensitivity comparison between traditional STR identification method and the method of the present invention

[0067] The mixture of 99% AGS cells + 1% Hela cells, the mixture of 99% HGC-27 cells + 1% Hela cells, the mixture of 99% SNU-216 cells + 1% Hela cells, using the traditional STR identification method, cell purity identification,

[0068] STR identification map such as image 3 As shown, after comparison with the international STR database, it can be seen that the above-mentioned cell lines contaminated by Hela cells with an initial amount of 1% are still wrongly identified as pure products of AGS, HGC-27, and SNU-216 cells.

[0069] In Example 1, when HepG2, AGS, A549, HCT-116, HGC-27, NCI-N87, and SNU-216 cells were mixed with Hela cells, the proportion of Hela cells in the initial culture When it is as low as 1%, the method of the present invention can be used to detect the existence of Hela cells. The results of Example 1 and Example 2 show that when the t...

[0071] The method for detecting cell cross-contamination caused by Hela cells based on the primer pair screened by the present invention The primers used in the method include a primer pair of A group and a primer pair of B group, and the sequence of the primer pair of A group is as follows:

[0072] Group A upstream primer: 5'GGTGCCAGAAACCGTTGAATC 3';

[0073] A group of downstream primers: 5'CGTCGGGCTGGTAAATGTTGA 3';

[0074] The sequence of the B group primer pair is as follows:

[0075] Group B upstream primer: 5'CAACCGAGCACGACAGGAA 3';

[0076] Group B downstream primers: 5'ATTGCTCGTGACATAGAAGG 3'.

[0077] 1) Use the supernatant of the cell culture to be tested as the template for the first round of PCR, use the supernatant of the pure culture of Hela cells as the positive control for PCR, and use the primer pair of group A to perform the first round of PCR;

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and primers for detecting cell cross-contamination caused by Hela cells, including a primer pair of A group and a primer pair of B group. The method is as follows: 1) The supernatant of the cell culture to be tested is used as the first round of PCR Template, use the supernatant of pure Hela cell culture as the positive control of PCR, and use the primer pair of A group to carry out the first round of PCR; 3) Agarose gel electrophoresis to detect the second round of PCR products to determine whether the cells to be tested are contaminated by Hela cells. The present invention is time-consuming, low in cost, and high in sensitivity. The sensitivity of the traditional STR identification method is low. When the number of cells used as a pollution source is less than 10% of the total number of cells, STR cannot detect cell contamination, while the sensitivity of the present invention is increased to 1 %, which is 10 times of STR. The present invention does not need to extract nucleic acid, does not need to destroy cells, can directly detect, and is a "non-destructive and non-invasive" detection method.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and in particular relates to a primer and a method for detecting cell cross-contamination caused by Hela cells. Background technique [0002] Hela cells are commonly used cells in cell biology and medical and pharmaceutical research. They proliferate abnormally rapidly and are also one of the important sources of cell cross-contamination. It has been shown to contaminate and completely replace many other cell lines. [0003] HeLa cell strain is a cell line with unlimited proliferation ability, which was derived from cervical cancer tissue of an African-American woman in 1952. As the first human cervical cancer cell line that can be cultured in vitro, HeLa cells are widely used in the research of cervical cancer, and play an important role in the biological research of cervical cancer cells and the diagnosis and treatment of cervical cancer. In addition, HeLa cells are also used as a research model ...
