Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of nucleic acid detection technology. Specifically, it relates to a kit and method for detecting ultra-small amounts of SARS-CoV-2 RNA at room temperature, consisting of a target RNA recognition and amplification module and a CRISPR-Cas12a-based dual signal amplification module. Background Technology
[0002] Since the outbreak of COVID-19, caused by the single-stranded RNA virus SARS-CoV-2, early detection and identification of the virus has been crucial for epidemic prevention and control. Specific and sensitive RNA virus detection methods are essential for epidemic control. Traditional RNA detection methods mainly include sequencing, Northern blotting, PCR, microarrays, and fluorescent probes. Sequencing can comprehensively display RNA information within a sample, but it is costly, time-consuming, and requires complex and expensive instruments, making it difficult to widely implement at the grassroots level. Northern blotting is simple, easy to perform, and inexpensive, but it is time-consuming, has low sensitivity, and poor specificity. Microarrays can perform high-throughput miRNA analysis, but have lower sensitivity; however, they are costly, and their specificity needs further improvement. PCR requires reverse transcription pretreatment of RNA to convert it into cDNA before analysis. This step involves multiple reactions at different temperatures, increasing detection time and operational complexity. In addition, the PCR method requires strict control of the heating and annealing temperatures, as well as the availability of relevant instruments and professionally trained sample preparation personnel, which increases the cost and operational complexity of the method and limits its further promotion to grassroots levels.
[0003] In recent years, CRISPR-Cas12a-based nucleic acid detection systems have attracted widespread attention due to their good specificity and sensitivity. When substrate DNA activates the CRISPR-Cas12a system, its trans-cleavage activity is activated, allowing for the cyclic cleavage of single-stranded DNA fluorescent probes within the system at room temperature, thus amplifying the signal. However, for RNA detection, two major bottlenecks remain. First, a relatively complex reverse transcription process is required to convert RNA into cDNA; second, the detection limit of CRISPR-Cas12a-based RNA detection systems cannot meet the needs of detecting ultra-low abundance RNA, greatly limiting the promotion and application of this system. For example, CN113337638A discloses a detection method and kit for the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2); however, this method combines CRISPR trans-cleavage with PCR technology, requiring PCR amplification. CN111154919A discloses a kit for a one-step closed-tube method for detecting novel coronavirus nucleic acid. It utilizes rolling circle amplification (RCA) to generate a large number of G4 chain nanowires, which then catalyze a colorimetric reaction to achieve rapid and direct detection of the novel coronavirus nucleic acid. However, its detection limit is 1 pM. CN113151591A discloses a nucleic acid composition and kit for detecting SARS-CoV-2, which cleverly integrates rolling circle amplification technology and recombinase polymerase amplification technology. It allows for detection of samples under isothermal conditions, eliminating the need for expensive and cumbersome temperature cycling instruments. However, its sensitivity is only 100 pg / μL.

[0013] In some embodiments, the iCas12a reaction system is prepared by dissolving crRNA and Blocker chains in buffer, denaturing at 85°C for 3 minutes, annealing at 55°C for 3 minutes, incubating at 37°C to obtain a crRNA-Blocker complex, mixing it with Cas12a in a buffer environment, and incubating at 37°C.

The reaction conditions are mild, requiring no reverse transcription process, and the operation is simple, while also ensuring high specificity and high sensitivity. When the SARS-CoV-2 target RNA is absent in the system, the target RNA recognition amplification module cannot react, thus failing to activate the dual signal amplification module, resulting in a low background. Furthermore, the nucleic acid composition used in this invention can fully utilize the high sensitivity of the CRIPSR-Cas12a detection system, achieving a detection limit of 100 aM, enabling the detection of trace amounts of RNA.

[0029] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can more clearly understand the present invention. The examples given are only for explaining the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. In the embodiments of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, all raw material components are commercially available products well known to those skilled in the art; unless specifically specified, the technical means used are all conventional means well known to those skilled in the art.
[0030] The technical concept of this invention is to provide a simple, rapid, and highly sensitive kit consisting of a target RNA recognition amplification module and a CRISPR-Cas12a-based dual signal amplification module, as well as a room temperature detection method for ultra-small amounts of SARS-CoV-2 RNA.
[0031] Firstly, the present invention provides a method for detecting SARS. CoV The nucleic acid composition of 2 includes a DNA recognition strand and a DNA auxiliary strand; the DNA recognition strand is used for signal recognition of the target RNA, and the recognition region is a conserved sequence of the SARS-CoV-2 gene; the DNA auxiliary strand is used to assist the recognition strand in rolling circle amplification with the target RNA.
[0032] Specifically, the sequence of the DNA recognition strand is selected from one or more sequences in SEQ ID NO. 1 to SEQ ID NO. 4;
[0033] CTACTGCTGCCTGGATTTTTTAAGGGCATGAGCTAGGTGATACTCTGGGTGAGTATGCAGGAGAAGTTCCC (SEQ ID NO.1);
[0034] CTACTGCTGCCTGGAGTTGAATTTTTTAAGGGCATGAGCTAGGTGATACTCTGGGTGAGTATCTAGCAGGAGAAG (SEQ ID NO.2);
[0035] TGGTTCAATCTGTCAAGCAGTTTTTAAGGGCATGAGCTAGGTGATACTCTGGGTGAGTATCAGCAAAGCAAGAGCAGCA (SEQ ID NO.3);
[0036] TCCCTTCTGCGTAGAAGCCTTTTTTAAGGGCATGAGCTAGGTGATACTCTGGGTGAGTATCTTGACTGCCGCCTCTGC (SEQ ID NO.4).
[0037] The sequence design of the DNA auxiliary strand is: ATACTCACCCAGAGT (SEQ ID NO. 5).
[0038] Secondly, the present invention provides a method for detecting SARS. CoV The kit for 2 includes a target RNA recognition amplification module and a dual signal amplification module; the target RNA recognition amplification module includes the nucleic acid composition, DNA ligase and DNA polymerase provided in the first aspect of the present invention; the dual signal amplification module includes a Cas12a reaction system, an iCas12a reaction system and a fluorescent probe; the Cas12a reaction system includes Cas12a and crRNA; the iCas12a reaction system includes crRNA, a Blocker strand and Cas12a.
[0039] Specifically, the nucleic acid composition is prepared by dissolving the DNA recognition strand and the DNA auxiliary strand in DNA polymerase buffer, denaturing at 85°C for 3 minutes, annealing at 55°C for 3 minutes, and incubating at 37°C.
[0040] The DNA ligase used was T4 ligase; the DNA polymerase used was Phi29 DNA polymerase.
[0041] The Cas12a reaction system was prepared by mixing Cas12a and crRNA in a buffer environment and incubating at 37°C.
[0042] The iCas12a reaction system is prepared by first dissolving crRNA and Blocker chains in buffer, denaturing at 85°C for 3 minutes, annealing at 55°C for 3 minutes, and incubating at 37°C to obtain the crRNA-Blocker complex. Then, the crRNA-Blocker complex and Cas12a are mixed in buffer and incubated at 37°C to obtain the final product.
[0043] The crRNA sequence was designed as follows:
[0044] UAAUUUCUACUAAGUGUAGAUAAGGGCAUGAGCUAGGUGAU (SEQ ID NO. 6).
[0045] The sequence design of the Blocker chain is as follows:
[0046] ATCACCTAGTATATCTCATGCCCTTATCTACACTTAGTAGTTTTTTAAATTA (SEQ ID NO. 7).
[0047] The fluorescent probe sequence is designed as follows: FAM-TTTTTATTTTT-BHQ (SEQ ID NO. 8).
[0048] Thirdly, the present invention provides a method for detecting ultra-small amounts of SARS-CoV-2 RNA at room temperature, based on the reagent kit provided in the second aspect of the present invention, specifically including the following steps:
[0049] S1. Place the nucleic acid sample to be tested into the target RNA recognition amplification module for amplification to obtain the amplification product;
[0050] S2. Mix the amplification product with the double signal amplification module and detect it in the dark;
[0051] In step S1, the amplification reaction conditions are 37°C for 15 minutes;
[0052] In step S2, the detection reaction conditions are 37°C, excitation wavelength 485nm, and emission wavelength 520nm.
[0053] When the target RNA of the novel coronavirus is present in the nucleic acid sample to be tested, the target RNA binds to the DNA recognition strand and forms a circular structure. Guided by the DNA auxiliary strand and acted upon by Phi29 DNA polymerase, circular amplification occurs using the DNA recognition strand as a template, yielding multiple repeating amplified DNA products complementary to the DNA recognition strand. These amplified products contain DNA sequences that can react with downstream dual signal amplification modules, thus allowing direct coupling with the latter module to further amplify and report the signal. When the target RNA is absent, the DNA recognition strand cannot form a circular structure, and no product can be amplified to react with the downstream module, thus no reporter signal is generated, offering the advantage of low background.
[0054] Furthermore, the amplified DNA products generated upstream can directly activate the trans-cleavage activity of the CRISPR-Cas12a system. Specifically, activated CRISPR-Cas12a can cleave single-stranded DNA fluorescent probes labeled with the fluorescent groups FAM and BHQ at both ends, thereby generating a cyclic signal reporter. On the other hand, activated CRISPR-Cas12a can activate the blocked iCRISPR-Cas12a (inhibit-CRISPR-Cas12a) in the dual signal amplification module, converting it into aCRISPR-Cas12a with signal amplification activity. After the upstream amplified products enter this module, the non-specific cleavage activity of Cas12a is activated, subsequently cleaving single-stranded probes present in the system, thereby generating a fluorescent signal. In addition, activated Cas12a cleaves the DNA strand blocking igRNA-T2 in the system, subsequently forming complete gRNA-T2; then, gRNA-T2 binds to Cas12a and matches with the helper target primer, activating Cas12a. Activated Cas12a cleaves both the free probe and sgRNA in the system, forming a positive feedback system and achieving double signal amplification. This double-cycle amplification system directly increases the amount of Cas12a enzyme generating the signal, thereby improving the sensitivity of the detection method. This allows for the detection of trace amounts of RNA while maintaining a relatively simple system and detection procedure.
