Embodiment 3

[0161] Embodiment 3: a kind of method for quantitative detection of capping enzyme activity of vaccinia virus

[0162] The positive control in Example 2 was diluted with a 5-fold concentration gradient, and the method in Example 2 was used to measure the enzymatic activity, and the results were as follows (Table 4):

[0163] Table 4 Quantitative determination of enzyme activity

[0164]

[0165] The RT-qPCR calculation results are shown in Table 4. ΔCT = CT value of streptavidin-adsorbed RNA - CT value of capped RNA. The average value of three replicates for each sample was taken to calculate the ΔCT before and after streptavidin treatment.

[0166] The method can distinguish capping enzymes with different activities and has good repeatability. Taking the logarithmic value of the enzyme concentration of the gradient dilution as the X-axis and the corresponding ΔCT as the Y-axis, the standard curve can be drawn ( Figure 4 ), and then used for quantitative analysis of capp...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for detecting the activity of capping enzyme of vaccinia virus in vitro. Specifically, the method includes: A. using T7 RNA polymerase to transcribe the target gene RNA; B. using 3'biotin-GTP and vaccinia virus capping enzyme to cap the RNA in step A; C. using streptavidin Avidin magnetic beads perform capping RNA adsorption reaction on the RNA in step B; D. Use RT-qPCR method to detect the difference in CT value in steps B and C, so as to determine the activity of vaccinia virus capping enzyme in step B. The method of the invention has good reproducibility, and the measured yield of capped and uncapped mRNA has significant difference, and can successfully quantitatively detect the capping enzyme activity of vaccinia virus.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of bioengineering, and in particular relates to a method for detecting the capping enzyme activity of vaccinia virus. Background technique [0002] The rapid development of mRNA vaccine technology has led to an increasing demand for RNA biology, and the key step in the preparation of mRNA vaccines is the preparation of mRNA samples. The most basic structures of mRNA samples include 5'cap, 5'UTR, ORF, 3'UTR, 3'tail. Among them, the function of the 5' cap structure is crucial, first, it can protect the mRNA from rapid degradation by exonuclease; second, the 5' cap structure plays an indispensable role in the translation process, because eukaryotes play The initiation factor recognizes and binds to the cap structure of the mRNA. In addition, the 5' cap structure also plays a further role in preventing the recognition of mRNA by innate immune sensors. [0003] Currently, there are two different ways to achieve capping ...
