Problems solved by technology

[0007] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the traditional MPCR technology, such as the decline in amplification efficiency, inconsistent amplification efficiency between templates, and cumbersome operating steps, the present invention proposes a new multiplex amplification method, which includes two steps: the first step , using capture oligonucleotides to bind target molecules and initiate specific linear amplification, resulting in intermediate sequences that can be exponentially amplified by universal primers

Embodiment 1

[0078] Example 1 Basic principle of amplification of the present invention

[0079] The present invention includes two modes: double universal primer mode and single universal primer mode, the principle is shown in Figure 1 (A) and Figure 1 (B).

[0080]In dual universal primer amplification, the capture oligonucleotide includes four regions: a first universal sequence U1s, a folding sequence T1s, a second universal sequence U2s and a binding capture sequence T2a, the capture oligonucleotide first passes through the binding capture sequence T2a The target molecule whose 5'-end sequence is determined is captured, and then the target molecule is used as a template to carry out an extension reaction, and the complementary strand T1a of the folded sequence T1s is added to the 3'-end to obtain an extended capture oligonucleotide. T1a and T1s can be completely complementary or incomplete, as long as T1a and T1s can induce intramolecular self-folding and form a half-hairpin structure...

[0082] Example 2 Construction of a product with a clear 5' end sequence

[0083] The method of the present invention requires the use of a sample with a well-defined 5'-end sequence to initiate the extension reaction mediated by the capture oligonucleotide. The strategy for constructing a product with a well-defined 5'-end sequence is as follows: figure 2 Shown: ① For example, a nucleic acid extension blocker is designed for the target molecule to block the extension of DNA polymerase to obtain a product with a 5'-end sequence determined; ② Different cleavage enzymes are used for specific cleavage sites in the target molecule Carry out a cleavage reaction to obtain a product with a 5'-end sequence determined, ③ or design a low-concentration specific primer for the target molecule for specific amplification, thereby obtaining a product with a determined 5'-end sequence.

[0084] Example 3 qPCR detection of miRNA21 and let-7a

[0085] MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of endogenous non-coding single-stranded small RNAs with a length of 19-25 nucleotides, which are ubiquitous in eukaryotic cells and control the activity of more than 50% of coding genes.

[0086] In this example, miRNA21 and let-7a are detected, and the steps are as follows:

[0087] (1) Synthesize miRNA21 and let-7a sequences;

[0088] (2) The capture oligonucleotides, universal primers and detection probes of miRNA21 and let-7a genes were simultaneously added to the reaction system containing miRNA21 and let-7a sequences, and miRNA21 and let-7a were detected by PCR. The system is template RNA, 5nM capture oligonucleotide, 150nM first universal primer, 150nM second universal primer, 150nM detection probe, 1U reverse transcriptase, 1U Taq polymerase, 200μM dNTP, 4.5mM MgCl 2 and 2× PCR buffer, the final volume was 20 μL; the PCR reaction program was pre-denaturation at 94 °C for 5 ...

Abstract

The invention provides a multiple amplification method. The multiple amplification method mainly comprises two processes of linear amplification initiated by low-concentration capture oligonucleotide and exponential amplification initiated by a universal primer. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, combining a low-concentration specific capture oligonucleotide with a target molecule with clear 5 '-terminal sequence information, and starting linear amplification; a product with a complete hairpin structure can be obtained from the linear amplification product in a self-folding and self-extending manner, so that an amplification intermediate product which takes a universal sequence as a tail end and contains a target sequence is obtained; amplification intermediate products containing different target sequences can be subjected to equivalent signal amplification by the same universal primer in an exponential amplification mode. According to the detection strategy combining linear amplification and index amplification based on the universal primer, the purpose of carrying out equivalent amplification and detection on various target molecules can be finally achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and relates to a multiplex amplification method. Background technique [0002] Multiplex PCR (Multiplex polymerase chain reaction, MPCR) refers to the simultaneous amplification of multiple targets through a single PCR reaction, and the detection of the amplified products combined with certain detection methods to realize the detection of multiple targets. MPCR has been deeply studied due to its high efficiency, high throughput and low cost, which can not only greatly improve the detection efficiency, but also reduce the detection cost. MPCR has been applied in many fields, including gene mutation and deletion, genotyping and quantification, genetic testing, companion diagnostics, etc. The current MPCR can be mainly divided into liquid-phase MPCR, microfluidic-based MPCR and solid-phase carrier multiplex PCR. [0003] Liquid-phase MPCR uses multiple target-specific primers to amplify multiple targe...
