Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of molecular biology, and in particular relates to a dual nano-PCR detection kit for porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus and pseudorabies virus and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a viral infectious disease characterized by reproductive disorders in pregnant sows, including abortion, mummification, stillbirth, and weak fetuses, as well as respiratory diseases in piglets and fattening pigs. The disease has spread globally, causing significant economic losses to the global pig industry. Pseudorabies (PRR) is caused by the porcine pseudorabies virus (PRV), a herpesvirus that causes fever, severe itching (except in pigs), and encephalopathy in a variety of domestic and wild animals. The disease can be transmitted to the reproductive system through breeding pigs. Once infected in pregnant sows, it can be transmitted vertically through the placenta to the fetus, resulting in severe abortion, stillbirth, weak fetuses, and mummification, leading to a decrease in the number and quality of newborn piglets.
[0003] The two diseases share many similar clinical symptoms: pregnant sows experience miscarriage, stillbirth, fetal mummification, and high neonatal mortality; fattening pigs experience loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, dyspnea, dermatitis, arthritis, neurological symptoms, growth retardation, and severely reduced immunity, making them highly susceptible to secondary infection with other pathogens. Adult pigs can carry and excrete the virus for long periods without clinical symptoms, and are also the primary cause of respiratory disease syndrome. Therefore, diagnosing PRRSV or PRV based solely on clinical symptoms is not advisable; laboratory testing is required, currently primarily through serology and molecular biology. Therefore, establishing detection methods for both PRRSV and PRV is essential for livestock production. Nano-PCR, as a new PCR technology, offers high sensitivity and specificity. Compared to fluorescent quantitative PCR, it requires less specialized laboratory equipment and is less expensive. Compared to conventional PCR, it also offers higher sensitivity, making it a new molecular diagnostic technology. Dual PCR can use one PCR reaction system to diagnose two diseases at the same time. It can not only detect single infection of two diseases, but also detect mixed infection of two diseases, which can save detection time and detection costs. In addition, nano-PCR has higher sensitivity than ordinary PCR and does not require special instruments and equipment. It is the current direction of reagent kit development and research.

[0039] Establishment of a dual nano-PCR detection method
[0040] 1. Primer Screening
[0041] The PRRSV ORF3 and pseudorabies virus gE gene sequences were downloaded from the NCBI website, and one pair of primers each for specific amplification of PRV and PRRSV were designed using Primer 5.0 primer design software. The primer sequences and the sizes of the target amplified fragments are shown in Table 1. The primer sequences were synthesized by Shanghai Bioengineering.
[0042] Table 1 Primer sequences
[0043]
[0044] 2. PCR Amplification
[0045] 2.1 Amplification template preparation
[0046] RNA was extracted from PRRSV-positive samples using the Tiangen RNA virus extraction kit, and the reverse transcription system was prepared according to the Abcam reverse transcription kit:
[0047] RNA template 6 μL
[0048] ACCURT Reaction Mix 2 μL.
[0049] After mixing, let it stand at room temperature for 5 minutes, then add the following reagents:
[0050] ACCURT Reaction Stooper 2μL
[0051] 5XAll-In-One RT MasterMix 4μL
[0052] Nuclease-free H2O 6μL.
[0053] The prepared system was centrifuged briefly to mix, and reverse transcribed on a PCR instrument. The reaction procedure was: 25°C for 10 min, 42°C for 50 min, 85°C for 5 min, and 4°C for 5 min. The reverse-transcribed cDNA was stored in a -20°C refrigerator for later use.
[0054] DNA was extracted from PRV-positive samples using the Tiangen DNA virus extraction kit, and the extracted DNA was stored in a -20°C refrigerator for later use.
[0055] 2.2 Singleplex PCR amplification system
[0056] The singleplex PCR reaction system for PRRSV and PRV was 20 μL: 12.5 μL of 2× Taq PCR Mastermix, 1.0 μL each of upstream and downstream primers (25 pmol / L), and ddH2O to 20 μL. The PCR protocol was as follows: 95°C for 5 min; 35 cycles of 95°C for 45 s, annealing at 52°C, 54°C, 56°C, 58°C, and 60°C for 35 s, and 72°C for 30 s; and 72°C for 10 min. After PCR, 5 μL of the amplified product was analyzed by electrophoresis on a 2% agarose gel.
[0057] Amplification results such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, both PRRSV and PRV primers can amplify target fragments of 395 bp and 221 bp respectively. The optimal annealing temperature of PRRSV is 56°C, and the optimal annealing temperature of PRV is 54°C. The target fragments are clear without any mixed bands.
[0058] 2.3 Construction and identification of recombinant plasmid standards
[0059] 50 μL of PRRSV and PRV were amplified by ordinary PCR, and the amplified products were purified by gel recovery kit and connected to Peasy-T1 vector. Then 50 μL of Trans1-T1 competent cells were taken from -80℃, 5 μL of connection product was added, ice bathed for 30 minutes, heat shocked at 42 for 90 seconds, ice bathed for 2 minutes, 500 μL of LB liquid culture medium without antibiotics was added, and cultured at 37℃ and 250 r / min for 1 hour. After that, 30 μL was evenly spread on the LB solid plate containing 50 μg / mL ampicillin with a pipette, and cultured at 37℃ for 12 hours. A single white colony was picked from the above-mentioned transformation culture plate, inoculated into 15 mL of LB liquid culture medium containing ampicillin, and cultured at 37℃ and 250 r / min overnight (not more than 16 hours), centrifuged to remove the supernatant, collected the bacteria, and extracted the plasmid. The extraction steps refer to the kit. The recombinant plasmid was identified by the PCR method in step 2.2, and the target fragment was run out. The results are as follows Figure 3 The constructed plasmid was stored in a -80℃ refrigerator under the action of bacterial protection agent until use.
[0060] 2.4 Nanoparticle Duplex PCR Setup and Optimization
[0061] Using the constructed standards, the optimal nanoPCR reaction system was determined by optimizing the PCR reaction conditions: 1 μL of 10-fold diluted nanoparticles (20 nm), 1 μL of upstream and downstream primers (10 mmol / L), 1 μL of template, 12.5 μL of 2× Taq PCR Mastermix, and ddH2O to 25 μL. The optimal reaction conditions were: 94°C for 5 minutes, followed by 35 cycles of 94°C for 30 seconds, 56°C for 30 seconds, and 72°C for 30 seconds, followed by a 10-minute extension at 72°C. The amplified product was analyzed by gel electrophoresis. Figure 4 As shown, the target gene sizes of the constructed PRRSV and PRV standards amplified by the nano-duplex PCR method were 395 bp and 221 bp, respectively, which are consistent with the amplification value size in step 2.2.
[0062] 2.5 nm Duplex PCR Specificity Verification
[0063] The established PRRSV and PRV nano-duplex PCR method was used to amplify the cDNA or DNA of CSFV, PEDV, TGEV, JEV, and PCV, which can cause abortion in breeding sows. The verification results showed that except for the two clear bands of PRRSV and PRV, no other bands were amplified. The amplification results are shown in Figure 5 This indicates that the established nano-duplex PCR method has strong specificity.
[0064] 2.6 nm Duplex PCR Sensitivity Validation
[0065] The initial concentrations of the plasmid standards were measured by photometer and were 5.17×10 9 copies / μL and 4.64×10 9 Copies / μL. Two plasmid standards were diluted 10-fold respectively, and used as templates, and then diluted 10-fold, with the dilution ratios of 10 -3 , 10 -4 , 10 -5 , 10 -6 , 10 -7 , 10 -8 Conventional duplex PCR and nano-PCR were performed. The minimum copy numbers of PRRSV and PRV plasmid standards that could be detected by conventional duplex PCR were 5.17×10 4 copies / μL and 4.64×10 4 copies / μL, while the minimum copy numbers of the two plasmid standards that could be detected by nanoPCR were 5.17×10 2 copies / μL and 4.64×10 2 copies / μL (such as Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown in Figure 3, the sensitivity of the nano-PCR detection method is 100 times higher than that of conventional PCR. This shows that the nano-PCR detection method for PRRSV and PRV established in this experiment has high sensitivity.
[0066] Example 2
[0067] The method of Example 1 was used to perform nano-duplex PCR verification on 10 samples positive for both PRRSV and PRV and 20 samples positive for PRRSV and PRV alone retained by the applicant's laboratory. The constructed verification results showed that the detection results of the nano-duplex PCR were consistent with the detection results of the previous sample registration, with a compliance rate of 100%. The results are shown in Table 2.
[0068] Table 2 Single-plex duplex PCR verification results
[0069]
[0070] Ten suspicious samples were then verified by single-plex and nano-duplex PCR. The results were as follows: Figure 8 The results showed that 2 of the 10 samples were infected with PRRSV and PRV together, 1 was infected with PRRSV, and 2 were infected with PRV. This indicates that the primers for PRRSV and PRV designed in the present invention can be well amplified by nano-duplex PCR, and a single detection operation can simultaneously identify single or co-infection of the two viruses.
