Problems solved by technology

[0006] In the process of treating DNA with sulfite, DNA is easily broken and degraded. Currently, sulfite conversion kits on the market have obvious DNA degradation problems, and the amount of remaining DNA cannot meet the needs of downstream PCR amplification and sequencing.
DNA degradation has become the main bottleneck of sulfite conversion technology, which seriously hinders the scientific research and clinical application of DNA methylation. Once the DNA degradation problem in the process of sulfite conversion is solved, it will greatly promote the progress of DNA methylation. Basic research and promote the application of DNA methylation markers in disease diagnosis

Abstract

The invention discloses a DNA protective agent and a DNA sulfite conversion method, and relates to the technical field of DNA methylation state analysis and detection. The DNA protective agent comprises hydroquinone, dimethyl sulfoxide and a DNA anti-degradation agent, and the DNA anti-degradation agent is glucomannan and / or arabic gum. The DNA protective agent can obviously reduce damage to DNA in the transformation process, avoid DNA degradation and maintain the integrity of the DNA. Besides, the high conversion rate of the non-methylated cytosine can be realized to a great extent, and the melting temperature of the DNA can be reduced to a great extent, so that the high-temperature denaturation time is indirectly shortened, and the problems of breakage and degradation caused by high-temperature damage of the DNA are solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of analysis and detection of DNA methylation status, in particular to a DNA protection agent and a DNA sulfite conversion method. Background technique [0002] Inheritance in the traditional sense means that the genetic information of the genome is encoded by the sequence of the four bases of AGCT. With the development of biological science and technology, biologists have more and more comprehensive understanding of genetic laws. Scientists have gradually discovered that the methylation of the base cytosine (C) and the acetylation of histones also affect the phenotype of individuals. These biochemical modifications are the main research content of epigenetics. Epigenetics refers to the regulation of gene expression through the modification of DNA and histones without changing the genome sequence, among which DNA methylation is the most common and plays an important role, thus constituting epigenetics. The ...
