Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biological detection, and specifically relates to a nucleic acid detection primer set and a visual detection method for rapidly detecting Saccharomyces boulardii based on a loop-mediated isothermal amplification technology. Background Art

[0002] Saccharomyces boulardii is a probiotic that can treat diarrhea and prevent antibiotic-related complications. Clinical trials have shown that Saccharomyces boulardii has therapeutic effects on several types of diarrhea and enteritis, especially diarrhea associated with overgrowth of Clostridium difficile. In addition, Saccharomyces boulardii preparations are also used as adjuvant treatments for Vibrio cholerae, rotavirus, traveler's diarrhea, and Helicobacter pylori. Freeze-dried preparations of Saccharomyces boulardii have been widely used.

[0003] The biological characteristics of Saccharomyces boulardii are not exactly the same as those of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is a new species of the genus Saccharomyces and is considered to be a subspecies of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Currently, there are still many difficulties in the identification and typing of Saccharomyces boulardii. The traditional experimental scheme for phenotypic identification takes a long time, and the difficulty of molecular identification is that the genomes of Saccharomyces boulardii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae are similar, which makes it difficult.

[0004] According to the identification and phylogenetic analysis of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces boulardii, through the analysis of the gene database, the gene region of the intergenic transcribed region (ITS) in 26SrDNA showed high interspecific differences and low intraspecific polymorphism, which can be used to distinguish yeast from other species. In addition, the HXT9 gene is a member of the hexose transporter gene family in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome. The HXT9 sequence was determined to be a conserved sequence of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which can be used to distinguish Saccharomyces boulardii / Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In recent years, the use of multiplex PCR, MLST or gene sequencing methods can achieve the distinction between Saccharomyces boulardii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, but for the quality inspection of probiotic preparations such as Saccharomyces boulardii powder, the above methods are technically feasible but require a long time and more data analysis, and often cannot meet the needs of timely identification of a large number of finished drugs.

[0005] Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) technology is a new isothermal nucleic acid amplification method that mainly uses different specific primers to identify specific regions of the target gene and uses a polymerase with chain displacement activity to rapidly amplify nucleic acids under constant temperature conditions (around 65°C), ensuring high specificity and efficiency of amplification.

[0006] In response to the current quality inspection requirements for Saccharomyces boulardii preparations, the present invention will establish a rapid and accurate identification scheme for Saccharomyces boulardii and / or Saccharomyces cerevisiae based on LAMP technology.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0091] The present invention is further described in detail below through specific examples.

[0092] It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0093] Unless otherwise specified, the materials and reagents used in this example were obtained from commercial sources.

[0094] Example 1

[0095] The inventors analyzed the gene database based on Saccharomyces boulardii (GenBank: KP744576.1) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (GenBank: J01347.1) published in GenBank. The gene region of the intergenic transcribed region (ITS) in 26S rDNA showed high interspecific differences and low intraspecific polymorphism, which can be used to distinguish Saccharomyces boulardii, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and other species. Three sets of specific primers were further designed based on the Saccharomyces cerevisiae ITS sequence (GenBank: MK504363) to distinguish Saccharomyces boulardii from other probiotics. Each set of primers can be divided into three pairs of six, namely outer primers F3 and B3, inner primers FIP and BIP, loop primers LF and LB, and the nucleotide sequences are shown in Table 1.

[0097]

[0098]

[0099] Example 2

[0100] The embodiment of the present invention provides genome analysis of Saccharomyces boulardii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The HXT9 sequence is a conserved sequence of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Three sets of specific primers are designed based on the Saccharomyces cerevisiae HXT9 gene sequence (GenBank: NC_001142) to distinguish Saccharomyces boulardii from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Each set of primers can be divided into three pairs of six, namely outer primers F3 and B3, inner primers FIP and BIP, loop primers LF and LB, and the specific primer sequences are shown in Table 2.

[0103]

[0104] Example 3 Primer screening

[0105] 1. Primer set for ITS

[0106] Visual detection based on LAMP was performed on total DNA of Saccharomyces boulardii or Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The 25 μL reaction system was as follows: 1 μL total DNA of Saccharomyces boulardii or Saccharomyces cerevisiae (1 ng / μL), 3 μL reaction premix A (containing 8U Bst DNA large fragment polymerase and 1 μL 3mM HNB dye), 21 μL reaction premix B (10× reaction buffer (Isothermal Amplification Buffer, NEB, catalog number B0537S) 2.5 μL, ITS primer set (the molar concentrations of the outer primer, inner primer, and loop primer were 10 μM, 40 μM, and 20 μM, respectively) 2.8 μL, 10 mM dNTP solution 4 μL, 5 M betaine solution 4 μL, 50 mM magnesium sulfate solution 4 μL, and DEPC water was added to 21 μL). The reaction conditions were set to 65°C for 45 min.

[0107] The results are as follows Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the three primer sets designed for the ITS sequence have good amplification results for both Saccharomyces boulardii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and the amplification results are in line with expectations. The amplification capabilities of the three primer sets were further tested using 100 pg to 0.01 pg of total DNA of Saccharomyces boulardii or total DNA of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The results are shown in the figure. Figure 2 As shown, for Saccharomyces boulardii, the amplification sensitivity of the three primer sets is 0.01pg, but the amplification efficiency of the third primer set (ITS-3) is higher (shown as brighter bands); for Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the sensitivity of the first primer set (ITS-1) can reach 1pg, and the sensitivity of the third primer set (ITS-3) is 10pg, which is slightly worse than ITS-1, but the amplification efficiency is higher and it is easy to cause color changes. Therefore, considering comprehensively, the ITS-3 primer set with higher amplification efficiency is preferred.

[0108] 2. Primer set for HXT9

[0109] Visual detection based on LAMP was performed on total DNA of Saccharomyces boulardii or Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The 25 μL reaction system was as follows: 1 μL total DNA of Saccharomyces boulardii or Saccharomyces cerevisiae (1 ng / μL), 3 μL reaction premix A (containing 8U Bst DNA large fragment polymerase and 1 μL 3mM HNB dye), 21 μL reaction premix B (2.5 μL 10× reaction buffer, 2.8 μL HXT9 primer set (the molar concentrations of outer primers, inner primers, and loop primers were 10 μM, 40 μM, and 20 μM, respectively), 4 μL 10mM dNTP solution, 4 μL 5M betaine solution, 4 μL 50mM magnesium sulfate solution, and DEPC water was added to 21 μL). The reaction conditions were set to 65°C for 45 min.

[0110] The results are as follows Figure 3As shown in the figure, the three pairs of primers designed for the HXT9 sequence have good amplification results for both Saccharomyces boulardii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and the amplification results are in line with expectations. The amplification capabilities of the three primer sets were further tested using 10 ng to 10 pg of Saccharomyces boulardii DNA or total Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA. The results are shown in the figure. Figure 4 As shown, for Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the sensitivity of the first primer set (HXT9-1) can reach 100pg, the sensitivity of the second primer set (HXT9-2) is 10pg, and the sensitivity of the third primer set (HXT9-3) is 1ng. Therefore, considering comprehensively, the HXT9-2 primer set with higher sensitivity and amplification efficiency is preferred.

[0111] Example 4 A kit for LAMP detection of Saccharomyces boulardii by visually amplifying genomic DNA samples

[0112] A kit for LAMP detection for identifying Saccharomyces boulardii by visually amplifying genomic DNA samples, comprising a reaction premix A (containing 8U Bst DNA large fragment polymerase and 1μL of 3mM HNB dye), a reaction premix B (2.5μL of 10× reaction buffer, 2.8μL of ITS-3 or HXT9-2 (the molar concentrations of outer primers, inner primers, and loop primers are 10μM, 40μM, and 20μM, respectively), 4μL of 10mM dNTP solution, 4μL of 5M betaine solution, 4μL of 50mM magnesium sulfate solution, and DEPC water supplemented to 21μL), two positive quality control products (Saccharomyces boulardii DNA and Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA), and a blank control product (DEPC water).

[0113] Example 5

[0114] The present invention provides a LAMP detection method for identifying Saccharomyces boulardii by visually amplifying a genomic DNA sample, comprising the following steps:

[0115] (1) obtaining genomic DNA of the sample to be tested;

[0116] (2) LAMP amplification

[0117] The LAMP amplification reaction system is as follows: 25 μL reaction system is as follows: 1 μL of sample DNA to be tested, 3 μL reaction premix A (containing 8U Bst DNA large fragment polymerase and 1 μL 3mM HNB dye), 21 μL reaction premix B (2.5 μL 10× reaction buffer, 2.8 μL ITS-3 or HXT9-2 (the molar concentrations of the outer primer, inner primer, and loop primer are 10 μM, 40 μM, and 20 μM, respectively), 4 μL 10mM dNTP solution, 4 μL 5M betaine solution, 4 μL 50mM magnesium sulfate solution, and DEPC water is added to 21 μL).

[0118] Amplification reaction conditions: 65°C for 40 min.

[0119] (3) Test result judgment

[0120] After LAMP amplification, the color change of the system determines the test result: if the ITS sequence is amplified (blue), it means that the test sample contains the genome of Saccharomyces boulardii or Saccharomyces cerevisiae. On this basis, if the HXT9 sequence is blue (amplified), it means that Saccharomyces cerevisiae is contained. If the HXT9 sequence is not amplified and the color is purple, the test result is determined to be negative, that is, the test sample is Saccharomyces boulardii ( Figure 5 ).

[0121] Example 6

[0122] This example is used to optimize the reaction conditions such as the amount of Bst DNA large fragment polymerase, reaction time, temperature, and magnesium ion concentration in the LAMP detection method of Example 5.

[0123] 1.Bst DNA Large Fragment Polymerase Dosage and Reaction Time

[0124] The effects of different enzyme dosages and reaction times on the LAMP detection method of Example 5 were investigated using a positive quality control (total DNA of Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and a blank control (DEPC water). Specifically, the dosage of Bst DNA large fragment polymerase in the reaction system of the LAMP detection method of Example 5 was set to 2U, 4U and 8U, respectively, and the reaction time was set to 30 minutes, 35 minutes, 40 minutes, 50 minutes and 60 minutes, respectively. The results are shown in Tables 3 and 4. Figure 6 As shown, for the positive quality control product, when the dosage of Bst DNA large fragment polymerase is 2U, among the five reaction times, amplification effect occurs only at 60 minutes, when the dosage of Bst DNA large fragment polymerase is 4U, amplification effect occurs in all five reaction times, and when the dosage of Bst DNA large fragment polymerase is 8U, amplification effect occurs in all five reaction times; all blank controls have no amplification effect. In summary, the dosage of Bst DNA large fragment polymerase is selected to be 8U, and the reaction time is set to 40 minutes.

[0125] Table 3 Test results of positive quality control products with different reaction times and enzyme dosages

[0126]

[0127] 2. Temperature

[0128] The effects of different reaction temperatures on the LAMP detection method of Example 5 were investigated using a positive reference (Saccharomyces cerevisiae genomic DNA) and a blank control (DEPC water). Specifically, the reaction temperatures in the reaction system of the LAMP detection method of Example 5 were set to 60°C, 65°C, and 70°C, respectively. The results are shown in Table 1. Figure 7 As shown in the figure, the positive reference product did not amplify at 60°C, but amplified at 65°C and 70°C, so 65°C was finally selected as the reaction temperature.

[0129] 3. Magnesium ion concentration

[0130] The 10× reaction buffer used in the reaction system of Example 5 contains a certain amount of magnesium ions, and the magnesium ion concentration in the entire 25 μL reaction system is 2 mM. 4 The addition amount was such that the magnesium ion concentration in the 25 μL reaction system was 6 mM, 10 mM, and 14 mM, respectively. The effect of magnesium ion concentration on the LAMP detection method of Example 5 was investigated by experiments. The experimental results are shown in FIG. Figure 8 As shown in the figure, with total DNA of Saccharomyces cerevisiae as the positive quality control and DEPC water as the blank control, when the magnesium ion concentration is 6mM, both the positive reaction and the negative reaction are blue, that is, the positive quality control and the blank control cannot be distinguished; when the magnesium ion concentration is 14mM, both the positive reaction and the negative reaction are purple, that is, the positive quality control and the blank control cannot be distinguished; when the magnesium ion concentration is 10mM, the negative reaction tube is purple and the positive reaction tube is blue, that is, the positive and negative reactions can be clearly distinguished. Therefore, the magnesium ion concentration of 10mM was finally selected, that is, 4μL of 50mM magnesium sulfate solution was added under the premise of 10× reaction buffer.

[0131] Example 7 Specificity Assessment

[0132] This example is used to evaluate the specificity of the LAMP detection method of Example 5.

[0133] Three active granule preparations of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and one Saccharomyces boulardii capsule were purchased from the market (for specific information, see Table 3). Saccharomyces boulardii powder and four common probiotic preparations on the market were also purchased (for specific information, see Table 4). The LAMP detection method of Example 5 was used for rapid identification.

[0134] The results are shown in Tables 4, 5 and Fig. 9 , Fig.10 As shown, the LAMP detection method of Example 5 has a good color development effect on Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharomyces boulardii, and has no color development effect on other probiotics, indicating that the LAMP detection method of Example 5 has strong specificity.

[0140] Example 7 Detection of actual samples

[0141] A batch of Saccharomyces boulardii powder (BIOCODEX, France, batch number 6386, expiration date 202405) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae were purchased from the market as samples to be tested, and the LAMP detection method of Example 5 was used to detect them. The specific process is as follows:

[0142] (1) DNA extraction of samples to be tested: Under sterile operation, 10 mg of Saccharomyces boulardii was weighed into a 1.5 mL centrifuge tube, resuspended with 100 μL of sterile water, and boiled in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Centrifuged at 12,000 rpm for 2 minutes, and the supernatant was collected. In addition, the genomic DNA of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was extracted using a yeast genome extraction kit (Omega Bio-Tek, catalog number D3370) according to its instructions.

[0143] (2) LAMP amplification

[0144] The LAMP amplification reaction system and reaction conditions were the same as those in Example 5.

[0145] (3) Test result judgment

[0146] After the reaction is completed, observe the color change in the reaction system, such as Fig.11 As shown, the ITS sequence in the Saccharomyces boulardii powder was amplified, and the HXT9 sequence appeared blue, that is, the identification result was Saccharomyces boulardii, which was the same as the result of the actual sample annotation; the ITS sequence and HXT9 sequence in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA were both amplified, indicating that the identification result was Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which was the same as the result of the actual sample, indicating that the LAMP detection method provided in Example 5 can effectively identify Saccharomyces boulardii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
