Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of biomolecular self-assembled material information storage and encryption, and specifically refers to a binary digital encryption operation method based on a DNA nanoswitch. Background Art
[0002] A DNA nanoswitch is a type of DNA nanostructure constructed based on the principle of DNA origami: using a single-stranded M13mp18 DNA as the backbone, it self-assembles with complementary short oligonucleotides to form a simple DNA linear double-stranded structure. A certain number of short oligonucleotides are designed according to experimental needs, with one end connected and paired with the backbone, and the other end being an unpaired and exposed sequence, and this part of the sequence can be complementary paired with the connecting strand. When the detection strand is complementary paired with the target strand, the DNA nanoswitch undergoes a topological deformation from a linear structure to a circular structure. Circular DNA nanoswitches have different migration rates in agarose gel electrophoresis due to different configurations and will show bands at different positions in the gel electrophoresis. Therefore, DNA circular nanoswitches with different configurations can be used as information carriers to carry the encoding and transmission of different information.
[0003] K. Halvorsen et al. designed and synthesized circular DNA nanoswitches with different configurations, and successfully achieved the encoding and storage of different letter information by using their different migration rates in agarose gel electrophoresis. Then, using RNase H ribonuclease for specific enzymatic cleavage to digest the RNA in the DNA-RNA hybrid region, the circular DNA nanoswitch was transformed into a linear structure, thereby performing "encryption" processing on the input information; finally, a single-stranded DNA was added to "decrypt" and read the transmitted information. Based on this strategy, the storage, encryption, and transmission of information were successfully realized. The scientific research team of Shaanxi Visono borrowed the strategy of "protection first - deprotection later" in organic chemistry, and proposed a strategy of first using a short RNA protection strand to prevent the DNA nanoswitch from forming a ring, and then performing information encryption and decryption through specific enzymatic cleavage methods.
[0004] According to whether the nanoswitch forms a ring, the linear structure and circular structure of the DNA nanoswitch are respectively defined as "0 and 1" in the binary counting system. Based on the strategy of "protection first - deprotection later", we successfully constructed the numbers 1, 2, 4, and 8 represented in binary. Using these 4 numbers as basic modules, and then relying on the specific enzymatic cleavage effect of RNaseA, through encryption and decryption for the expression, erasure, and rewriting of digital information, we realized the encryption operation of binary numbers within 15, providing new ideas and methods for the application of nanoswitches. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The objective of the present invention is to provide a binary digital encryption operation method based on DNA nanoswitches. The present invention is based on the "protection first - deprotection later" strategy, and uses different circular DNA nanoswitches to prepare the four basic numbers 1, 2, 4, and 8. Secondly, according to the operations to be performed, the basic numbers are mixed, and RNaseA endonuclease is used to trigger the operation encryption. Finally, a ligation strand T is added to trigger the operation and the operation result is read through agarose gel electrophoresis technology; a simple and low - cost information storage and digital operation solution is provided. By combining the response characteristics of biomolecules with the information encryption requirements, DNA nanoswitches provide a solution for highly secure, high - density, and biocompatible data protection, and provide a possible new path for low - energy - consumption, highly confidential biological computing and precision medical operations; at the same time, DNA nanoswitches have rewritability, and the present invention has strong scalability and may be applied to more complex information storage and logical operation scenarios in the future.
[0006] To achieve the above objective, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: A binary digital encryption operation method based on DNA nanoswitches, and the encryption operation strategy includes the following steps:
[0007] (1) Prepare linear DNA nanoswitches;
[0008] (2) According to the "protection first - deprotection later" strategy, prepare circular DNA nanoswitches corresponding to the basic numbers;
[0009] (3) Complete the storage of digital information by selectively mixing circular DNA nanoswitches;
[0010] (4) Use RNaseA nuclease to perform enzymatic digestion on the mixed solution to achieve the encryption of digital operations;
[0011] (5) After adding the target strand and incubating, read the operation result through agarose gel electrophoresis.
[0012] Further, the preparation process of the linear DNA nanoswitches in step (1) is specifically as follows: Use M13mp18 linear single - strand as the backbone strand to prepare linear single - strand DNA with a concentration of 250 ng / μL by enzymatic digestion; design and synthesize a mixture containing 149 staple strands and 5 detection strands D x ; Mix the staple strands in equal proportions to form a staple strand mixture M1, and mix the detection strands in equal proportions to form a detection strand mixture M2; Mix the staple strand - detection strand mixture M3 with the M13mp18 linear single - strand to form a mixture M4; Place the mixture M4 in a PCR instrument for an annealing program and then dilute it into 1×PBS buffer for standby.
[0013] Further, the preparation process of the circular DNA nanoswitch in step (2) is specifically as follows: Design the RNA ligation strand RNA 0-x Each strand contains 24 bases. 12 bases at one end are connected to the detection strand D0, and 12 bases at the other end are connected to the detection strand D x ; Through the RNA 0-x strand and the base complementary pairing of the detection strands D0 and D x to form circular DNA nanoswitches Loop 1, Loop 2, Loop 3, and Loop 4 with different configurations, corresponding to the decimal numbers 1, 2, 4, and 8 respectively.
[0014] Preferably, the design of the detection strand D x in step (2) follows the distance control principle. The pairing position of the detection strand D0 and the M13mp18 linear single strand is designed at the 2000th base from the 3' end of the M13mp18 linear single strand. The distance between the detection strand D1 and D0 is 600 bases, the distance between D2 and D0 is 1200 bases, the distance between D3 and D0 is 1800 bases, and the distance between D4 and D0 is 2400 bases.
[0015] Further, the storage of digital information in step (3) is achieved by selectively mixing the circular DNA nanoswitches corresponding to the basic digits; among them, the number 11 is represented by mixing the circular DNA nanoswitches corresponding to RNA 0-1 , RNA 0-2 , RNA 0-4 , and the number 15 is represented by mixing the circular DNA nanoswitches corresponding to RNA 0-1 , RNA 0-2 , RNA 0-3 , RNA 0-4 .
[0016] Further, the encryption process of digital operation in step (4) is completed by incubating at 37 °C for 10 minutes after adding RNaseA nuclease, specifically digesting the RNA 0-x strand to transform the circular DNA nanoswitch into a linear structure.
[0017] Further, the design of the RNA ligation strand RNA 0-x in step (4) is that each strand contains 24 bases. 12 bases at one end are connected to the detection strand D0, and 12 bases at the other end are connected to the detection strand D x to form a circular DNA nanoswitch.
[0018] Further, the reading of the operation result in step (5) is completed after incubating with the target strand T x ; The target strand T xis designed such that each strand contains 24 bases, with 12 bases at one end connected to the detection strand D0 and 12 bases at the other end connected to the detection strand D x connected.
[0019] Furthermore, in the step (5), the binary digital encryption operation strategy realizes the reading of the operation result by observing the position of the circular DNA nanoswitch on the gel diagram through agarose gel electrophoresis. The agarose gel electrophoresis conditions are set as 1.2% agarose concentration, 0.5×TBE buffer, 60V voltage, and 1.5 hours of running gel time.
[0020] Furthermore, in the step (5), the target strand T x is designed such that each strand contains 24 bases, with 12 bases at one end connected to the detection strand D0 and 12 bases at the other end connected to the detection strand D x connected, and is used to trigger the operation and decryption.
[0021] The beneficial effects obtained by the present invention with the above structure are as follows: (2) The present invention is based on the strategy of "protection first - deprotection later", and prepares four basic numbers 1, 2, 4, and 8 through different circular DNA nanoswitches; (2) The present invention mixes the basic numbers according to the operations required, uses RNaseA ribonuclease to trigger the operation encryption; finally, adds the connecting strand T to trigger the operation and reads the operation result through agarose gel electrophoresis technology; (3) The present invention provides a simple and low - cost information storage and digital operation solution. By combining the response characteristics of biomolecules with the information encryption requirements, the DNA nanoswitch provides a solution for high - security, high - density, and biocompatible data protection, and provides a possible new path for low - energy - consumption, high - confidentiality biological computing and precision medical operations; (4) The DNA nanoswitch in the present invention has rewritability, and the present invention has strong scalability and may be applied to more complex information storage and logical operation scenarios in the future.
