Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of molecular biology, and in particular relates to a Taq DNA polymerase with enhanced base mismatch recognition ability and an application thereof in gene mutation detection. Background Art

[0002] ARMS-PCR is a technology developed based on PCR for detecting known mutations. It can detect various point mutations in DNA and is currently one of the most important and widely used technologies for personalized molecular detection of tumors in the world.

[0003] ARMS-PCR (Amplification Refractory Mutation System PCR, Amplification Retractory Mutation System PCR) is also called Allele-Specific PCR (AS-PCR). It mainly controls the specific extension of alleles by designing the 3' terminal base of the primer. Its basic principle is: if the 3' terminal base of the primer is not complementary to the template base, the extension of DNA polymerase will be blocked and PCR products cannot be obtained. Therefore, two upstream primers can be designed according to the known point mutation, and their 3' terminal bases are complementary to the bases of the wild-type and mutant templates respectively. During amplification, the upstream primer that is not completely complementary to the template forms a mismatch at the 3' terminal base position, and the extension is blocked, while the upstream primer that is completely complementary to the template can amplify the corresponding PCR product, thereby distinguishing the template with point mutation from the normal template. It has been proven in practice that the detection of point mutations in ARMS-PCR depends on the optimization of reaction conditions, including primers, Taq DNA polymerase, template DNA, reaction temperature, etc. Among them, the first generation ARMS-PCR uses traditional primers and Taq DNA polymerase. In order to improve the specificity and sensitivity of detection, mismatched bases can also be introduced at the 3' end of the primer; the second generation ARMS-PCR is to improve the structure of traditional primers. For example, Aide Biotechnology's Super-ARMS can increase the detection sensitivity to 1 copy / μL by designing primers with synthetic neck-loop structures; the third generation ARMS-PCR mainly improves traditional Taq DNA polymerase, while enhancing the recognition of base mismatches and retaining the polymerase activity as much as possible. For example, the E507K / R536K / R660V TM-Taq DNA polymerase developed by GENECAST (Youngshin Lim et al., 2022) can achieve ultra-sensitive ARMS-PCR.

[0004] In addition, Chinese patent CN103025868B (Roche) discloses a Taq DNA polymerase with an E491K mutation, which can enhance the enzyme's 3'-mismatch recognition ability and is suitable for rare allele detection. Chinese patent application CN116004566A (Yisheng Biology) discloses that Taq DNA polymerase with T506K mutation, especially T506K and G510R double mutation, has good discrimination ability for single-base mismatches, and the single-base mismatch probe using the mutant enzyme has a lower peak and higher typing accuracy. Another US patent US20150191707A1 (IDT) discloses that V783 and / or H784 mutations can enhance the 3'-mismatch recognition ability of Taq DNA polymerase. However, the above-mentioned Taq DNA polymerase modified by mutation cannot effectively retain the polymerase activity while enhancing the base mismatch recognition ability. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new TaqDNA polymerase suitable for gene mutation detection. Summary of the invention

[0017] The amino acid sequence of the wild-type Taq DNA polymerase is shown in SEQ ID NO:1.

[0018] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the Taq DNA polymerase with enhanced base mismatch recognition ability has a sequence homology of more than 90% with the amino acid sequence of the wild-type Taq DNA polymerase.

[0019] More preferably, the sequence homology is 95% or more, 96% or more, 97% or more, 98% or more, or 99% or more.

[0020] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the Taq DNA polymerase with enhanced base mismatch recognition comprises mutation 1 and mutation 2 compared with the amino acid sequence of the wild-type Taq DNA polymerase;

[0046] Specifically, the modification of the nucleic acid aptamer refers to patents CN101768616B (Roche) and US9109226B2 (NEB). The nucleic acid aptamer can be obtained by screening using the SELEX technology. Its inhibitory properties on Taq DNA polymerase do not depend on the specific nucleotide sequence, but are determined by the conformation or shape of the secondary structure formed by the sequence and the melting temperature of the structure.

[0047] Specifically, the affinity antibody modification is described in patents EP726324B1 (Johnson & Johnson) and CN107119029A (Hailite), and the affinity antibody can be obtained by immune screening.

[0057] Specifically, the buffer material includes but is not limited to Tris-HCl, Tris-H 2 SO 4 .

[0058] Specifically, the cosolvent includes, but is not limited to, formamide, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ethylene glycol, 1,2-propylene glycol, and polyethylene glycol (PEG).

[0059] Specifically, the additives include but are not limited to NaCl, KCl, EDTA, betaine, tetramethylammonium chloride (TMAC), ammonium chloride, ammonium sulfate, ammonium acetate, glycerol, bovine serum albumin (BSA), gelatin, dithiothreitol (DTT), cationic or non-ionic detergents (such as Tween-20, Triton X-100, NP-40, etc.).

Especially mutant M14, whether the Ct values ​​amplified with 3' end 1 base mismatch primer or 2, 3 base mismatch primers are extremely significantly greater than normal primers, indicating that mutant M14 has the strongest ability to distinguish errors, followed by mutant M12, followed by mutants M9, M10, M11, and M13, and the above mutants can be used to prepare gene mutation detection reagents.

[0064] The gene mutation detection reagent provided by the present invention has a simple composition and low cost, and can also improve the specificity and sensitivity of detection, thus having high economic value and good application prospects. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0096] 2. Expression and purification of recombinant proteins

[0097] The recombinant strain with correct sequencing was fermented to prepare recombinant protein, inoculated into LB medium at an inoculum of 2%, cultured at 37°C with shaking until OD600 was 0.6-0.8, added IPTG with a final concentration of 0.5mM to induce expression, cultured overnight at 16°C for about 16h, and collected the bacteria. The bacteria were resuspended in a buffer (composed of: 50mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 0.3M NaCl, 1mM EDTA, 1mM DTT) at a ratio of 1:10, the cells were broken by ultrasonic treatment, and the supernatant was collected by centrifugation. PEI with a final concentration of 0.2% was added to the supernatant, and the supernatant was collected by centrifugation. 40% ammonium sulfate was added to the supernatant to precipitate the protein. The collected protein was purified by SP chromatography column to obtain a crude sample from which most of the impurities had been removed. The crude sample was stored in storage buffer (composition: 20mM Tris-HCl, 100mM NaCl, 0.1mM EDTA, 1mM DTT, 0.01% NP-40Alternative, 50% glycerol, pH 7.5 at 25°C) and diluted to 0.71mg / mL for subsequent mutant screening and performance evaluation.

[0098] Example 2

[0099] This embodiment provides a Taq DNA polymerase with enhanced base mismatch recognition (amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 4), which only comprises mutation 1, mutation 2 and mutation 4 compared with the amino acid sequence of wild-type Taq DNA polymerase (as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1):

[0100] Mutation 1: T506K;

[0101] Mutation 2: E507K;

[0102] Mutation 4: R660V.

[0103] The method for preparing the Taq DNA polymerase with enhanced base mismatch recognition provided in this example is basically the same as that in Example 1, except that the primers used for construction are not completely the same, as shown in Table 1.

[0104] In other embodiments of the present invention, Taq DNA polymerase mutants as shown in Table 5 were constructed according to methods substantially the same as in Example 1, and the construction primers corresponding to each mutation site were shown in Table 1 (SEQ ID NO: 5-34).

[0107] Experimental example

[0108] The constructed Taq DNA polymerase mutant was tested for error detection performance. The experimental method includes: designing normal amplification primers for λDNA, 3' end base mismatch primers and TaqMan probes, as shown in Table 6, using qPCR to evaluate the error detection performance of the Taq DNA polymerase mutant, and the qPCR reaction system and rapid amplification reaction procedures are shown in Table 7 (SEQ ID NO: 35-42). The results are judged based on the Ct value and the net amplification result. Figure 1 , 2 shown. Figure 1 "Net amplification" stands for the net amplification height, which refers to the difference between the fluorescence value after the amplification is completed and the initial fluorescence value (Rn). Under the same reaction conditions, the higher the net amplification height, the higher the polymerase activity and the stronger the amplification ability. "Ct" stands for the Ct value. The greater the difference from the Ct value of the normal primer, the stronger the 3' end base mismatch recognition of the DNA polymerase and the better the error detection performance. "Signal-to-noise ratio" is the ratio of Rn to the initial fluorescence value.

[0111] Table 7 qPCR reaction system and reaction procedure

[0112]

[0113] from Figure 1It can be seen that the Taq DNA polymerase mutant M3 has no net amplification (Rn) whether it is amplified with normal primers or mismatched primers, indicating that it is similar to the wild-type Taq DNA polymerase and is not suitable for the rapid amplification program of 60℃5s. Mutants M1, M2, M4, M5, M6, M7, M8, M9, M10, M11, M12, M13, and M14 all have net amplification, indicating that the above mutants can adapt to the rapid amplification program of 60℃5s, and the Ct value amplified with the 3' end base mismatched primer is greater than the Ct value amplified with the normal primer.

[0114] Among the above mutants, the Ct values ​​of M9, M10, M11, M12, and M13 amplified with primers with 1 base mismatch at the 3' end were significantly greater than those of other mismatch primers and normal primers, while the mutant M14 (see Figure 2 ), the Ct values ​​of the amplifications using the primers with mismatched base 1 at the 3' end or the primers with mismatched bases 2 and 3 are significantly greater than those of the normal primers, indicating that the mutant M14 has the strongest error discrimination ability (basically consistent with the mutant M2), followed by the mutant M12 (amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 3), followed by the mutants M9, M10, M11, and M13. The mutants M9, M10, M12, and M14 with "the difference of Ct value amplified by mismatched primers minus Ct value amplified by normal primers>4" were screened out for the preparation of gene mutation detection reagents.

[0115] Although the technical solution of the present invention has been described in detail above with general descriptions, specific embodiments and experimental examples, for ordinary technicians in this field, modifications, substitutions or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention should all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
