Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of kits and virus detection, and relates to a kit for detecting African swine fever virus and a fluorescent quantitative PCR detection method. Background Art
[0002] African swine fever is an acute, febrile, highly contagious disease caused by African swine fever virus (ASFV). It is very easy to infect domestic pigs and Eurasian wild boars. It is characterized by rapid onset, short course, and a mortality rate of up to 100%. Clinical manifestations include fever, difficulty breathing, coughing, viscous or serous fluid secretions from the eyes and nose, bleeding, redness, and cyanosis of the skin, severe bleeding in multiple internal organs, and severe enlargement of the spleen in some pigs. Conventional swine fever detection is mainly based on sampling of pig serum, plasma, anticoagulant blood, oral mucus, and lung, lymph node, kidney, bone marrow, and tonsil tissues, which cannot achieve the purpose of prevention. At present, there is no effective commercial African swine fever virus vaccine or specific medicine in the world, and the African swine fever virus remaining in the environment can infect pigs through insect vectors, bringing a heavy blow to farmers and the entire industry chain. Therefore, early prevention has become an important means to control African swine fever disease, especially the detection of African swine fever virus in the environment plays a very important role in prevention and control.
[0003] As a functional material, ionic liquids have been successfully applied in various fields, such as catalysts, synthesis, electrochemistry and extraction. They have been widely used in gas capture, solvents, catalysts and extraction, and have achieved good results. Magnetic ionic liquids are a new type of material with high thermal stability, easy modification, reusability, and extremely poor solubility in water. These characteristics enable magnetic ionic liquids to be used as widely used extraction reagents, including for the extraction of DNA in the environment. Magnetic ionic liquids combined with probes have the characteristics of co-extraction under low background DNA, high extraction efficiency and strong specificity. Compared with the extraction method of environmental DNA extraction kits on the market, the magnetic ionic liquid DNA extraction method is simple to operate, does not require complex reagents and expensive instrument processing, and greatly shortens the extraction time. This shows that the use of magnetic ionic liquids as environmental DNA extraction reagents has many advantages and great development prospects.
[0004] Xitian Peng et al. (Coupling oligonucleotides possessing a poly-cytosine tag with magnetic ionic liquids for sequence-specific DNA analysis; Xitian Peng et al., 2018. Chem Commun. 54, 73. DOI: 10.1039 / c8cc05954c) prepared a magnetic ionic liquid [P 6,6,6,14 + ][Co(hfacac)3 - ] materials, and reported that the materials can enrich the target DNA in animals, but did not disclose that they can be used to detect pathogenic nucleic acids. Summary of the invention
[0005] In view of the technical deficiencies, the first purpose of the present invention is to provide a kit for extracting and detecting African swine fever virus, and the second purpose is to provide a fluorescent quantitative PCR detection method for African swine fever virus.
[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned first technical purpose, the inventors combined their research experience in the field of virus detection over the years, and through a large number of experimental studies and unremitting exploration, finally obtained the following technical solution:
[0007] A kit for detecting African swine fever virus, comprising an African swine fever virus capture probe (VP72-CP), and a [P 6,6,6,14 + ][Co(hfacac)3 - ] materials, and specific primers (VP72-F / R) and probes (VP72-P) for fluorescent quantitative PCR detection of non-swine fever virus;
[0008] The present invention [P 6,6,6,14 + ][Co(hfacac)3 - ]The material is a magnetic ionic liquid with the following chemical structure:
[0009]
[0010] The nucleotide sequence of the African swine fever virus capture probe is shown in SEQ ID NO.1 in the sequence table, and the specific sequence is: 5'-C (20) -CACAAGCCGCACCAAAGCAAACCT-3';
[0011] The nucleotide sequences of the specific primers for fluorescent quantitative PCR detection of non-swine fever virus are shown in SEQ ID NO.2 and SEQ ID NO.3 in the sequence table, and the specific sequences are:
[0012] Upstream primer: 5'-GGCCCTCTCCTATGCAACATTC-3'
[0013] Downstream primer: 5'-GGGTTGGTATGGCTACACGTTC-3'
[0014] The nucleotide sequence of the probe for fluorescent quantitative PCR detection of non-swine fever virus is shown in SEQ ID NO.4 in the sequence table, and its specific sequence after modification with a fluorescent reporter group and a quenching group is:
[0015] 5'-FAM-CACAAGCCGCACCAAAGCAAACCT-BHQ1-3'.
[0016] It should be noted that the huge and complex genome of ASFV can encode up to 200 proteins, of which more than 50 are structural proteins. Structural proteins play an important role in the processes of viral DNA complexation, assembly, transcription, and immune evasion. The p72 protein accounts for about 31%-33% of the total mass of the virus particles, with a size of about 73.2kD. It is one of the structural proteins of African swine fever virus. The p72 protein has good immunogenicity, and the B646L gene sequence encoding the p72 protein is highly conserved. Therefore, the present invention uses the B646L gene sequence as the target sequence to design a capture probe (VP72-CP), fluorescent quantitative PCR specific primers (VP72-F / R) and a probe (VP72-P). At the same time, there is a continuous sequence of 20 cytosine nucleotides at the 5' end of the CP to facilitate the capture probe and [P 6,6,6,14 + ][Co(hfacac)3 - ] materials, the materials combine to form CP-[P 6,6,6,14 + ][Co(hfacac)3 - ] Composite capture material. P72 protein is the main structural protein of ASFV, encoded by the B646L gene. The gene is highly conserved and has strong antigenicity. The amino acid sequence of different virus strains is not much different. Compared with other structural proteins of ASFV, it has better stability and is the most commonly used target gene in virus detection. In the present invention, the screening effect of the capture probe VP72-CP on African swine fever virus enables the constructed African swine fever virus nucleic acid extraction method to have the ability to specifically identify African swine fever virus, and the minimum detection limit of the prepared African swine cancer virus detection is 1.05×10 0 copies / μL.
[0017] Further preferably, the African swine fever virus detection kit as described above further comprises a DNA desorption solution, wherein the DNA desorption solution is preferably RNase-free Water.
[0018] Further preferably, the African swine fever virus detection kit as described above also includes a fluorescent quantitative PCR reaction system.
[0019] In addition, the present invention constructs a DNA purification and extraction method based on oligonucleotide probe-modified magnetic ionic liquid and applies it to the extraction of African swine fever virus nucleic acid. The method can quickly and efficiently extract and separate the ASFV target DNA sequence in environmental samples, is easy to operate, has high extraction efficiency, and the magnetic ionic liquid material can be recycled and reused. It is superior to commercial column extraction kits in terms of minimum extraction limit and low-concentration DNA extraction efficiency. On this basis, the present invention designs fluorescent quantitative PCR specific primers and probes based on the conservative region of the VP72 gene of ASFV, constructs a highly sensitive and specific ASFV fluorescent quantitative PCR detection method, and serves as a monitoring, early warning and purification control means for ASFV.
[0020] Specifically, the second object of the present invention is achieved as follows: a non-diagnostic African swine fever virus fluorescence quantitative PCR detection method, the method comprising the following steps:

[0025] Further preferably, in the non-diagnostic African swine fever virus detection method as described above, in step (1) or step (2), the method of removing unbound matter includes: performing magnetic adsorption separation on the mixed solution obtained after incubation or capture to obtain a supernatant and a lower layer, and washing the lower layer.
[0026] Further preferably, in the fluorescent quantitative PCR detection method for African swine fever virus for non-diagnostic purposes as described above, the method of removing the incubation product in step 3) includes: performing magnetic adsorption separation on the mixed solution obtained after desorption to obtain a supernatant and a lower layer, and retaining the supernatant as the extraction product.

The kit and the corresponding detection method have the following advantages and significant improvements:
[0031] (1) In the present invention, [P 6,6,6,14 + ][Co(hfacac)3 - ] is a magnetic ionic liquid material that has a strong affinity for continuous cytosine nucleotide sequences and can be used as the sequence of the anchor material in the capture probe.

The minimum extraction limit is 10 times that of a commercial extraction kit, and the overall extraction efficiency is higher than that of a commercial extraction kit.

[0046] The technical scheme of the present invention is described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the implementation cases. The following implementation cases are only used to illustrate the present invention and should not be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention. The technical operation steps or conditions not specified in the embodiments are all carried out according to the techniques or conditions described in the literature of the field or according to the product instructions. The reagents or instruments used are the manufacturers indicated, and are all conventional products that can be obtained commercially.
[0047] In this embodiment, 6 pairs of fluorescent quantitative PCR primers and TaqMan probes were designed based on the ASFV VP72 gene. The prepared ASFV standard positive plasmid was used as a conventional PCR amplification template to perform a primer screening test. The results showed that the amplification band of the VP72-F1 / R1 primer was single, brighter and clearer than other primers, and no primer dimers appeared. Therefore, VP72-F1 / R1 and VP72-P1 were selected to construct the ASFV fluorescent quantitative PCR detection method. After the fluorescent quantitative PCR system was optimized, the specificity test results proved that the method had good specificity. At the same time, the sensitivity test was carried out using the gradient diluted standard positive plasmid as the amplification template. The test results showed that the minimum nucleic acid detection concentration of the method was 10 copies / μL, and the sensitivity of the method was better than the qPCR detection method established by Yu Bin et al. And through the intra-batch and inter-batch repeatability tests, the verification method had good repeatability. Finally, 184 environmental samples from different pig farms in Hubei Province were tested and compared with three different commercial kits. The test results showed that the detection rate of this method and the remaining commercial kits reached 100%.

The amplification band of the VP72-F1 / R1 primer was brighter than that of other primers, and the band was single, and no primer dimers appeared in the negative control wells.

[0175] 2.2 ASFV nucleic acid extraction method based on oligonucleotide probe modified magnetic ionic liquid
[0176] 2.2.1 Optimization of conditions for binding oligonucleotide probes to magnetic ionic liquids
[0177] (1) Effect of temperature on the binding of oligonucleotide probes to magnetic ionic liquids
[0178] Temperature is one of the factors that need to be considered in the process of oligonucleotide probe binding. At too high or too low temperatures, the binding performance of MIL will be affected. Therefore, except for temperature, other conditions are kept unchanged (pH = 7, binding time is 5 minutes), and different binding temperatures of MIL and probe are set (30℃-90℃). Each group has 3 replicates. According to the method of 3.3.2, the probe binding test is carried out, the probe binding amount is calculated, and the probe binding amount at different temperatures is compared. The results are as follows Figure 6(a) shows that the binding amount gradually increases when the binding temperature is between 30℃ and 50℃, and reaches the maximum binding amount (45,861ng) at 50℃. As the temperature continues to rise, the binding amount of the probe tends to decrease, but the overall binding amount is not greatly affected by temperature. The binding amount between 30℃ and 80℃ is higher than 4,000ng, so the binding temperature of 50℃ is selected as the subsequent experimental condition.
[0179] (2) Effect of volume ratio on the binding of oligonucleotide probes to magnetic ionic liquids
[0180] Due to the insolubility of MIL, MIL will disperse to form small droplets in a certain volume of solution, increasing its contact area with the probe in the solution, allowing MIL to bind to the probe more fully. However, an excessively high volume of probe solution can easily lead to difficulties in collecting magnetic materials and waste of reagents. Therefore, in order to explore the appropriate volume ratio of MIL to probe solution, different volume ratios of MIL to probe were set (1:2, 1:5, 1:10, 1:20, 1:25), while other conditions remained unchanged. The temperature was controlled at 50°C, and the binding time was incubated on a shaker for 5 minutes. Three replicates were set for each group. After the magnetic rod was used to adsorb and separate the MIL-Probe and the probe solution, the average probe concentration before and after binding was measured and calculated, and the binding amount of the probe was calculated. The results are shown in the figure. Figure 6 As shown in (b), it can be seen from the figure that when the volume ratio of the two increases from 1:2 to 1:10, the probe binding amount gradually increases. When the volume ratio is 1:10, the probe binding amount reaches a maximum of 44,621ng, and then the binding amount gradually decreases. It is observed that floccules appear on the surface of MIL after binding, which is difficult to remove by washing and will reduce the subsequent DNA extraction efficiency. Therefore, it is speculated that a certain volume of MIL has a maximum limit for the binding amount of the probe. Beyond this maximum limit, the capture probe will aggregate on the surface of MIL, thereby affecting the binding of MIL to the probe in the solution. Therefore, a volume ratio of MIL to probe of 1:10 was selected for the conditions of subsequent experiments.
[0181] (3) Effect of binding time between MIL and oligonucleotide probe on binding
[0182] The binding of MIL to the oligonucleotide probe requires a certain amount of time. In order to fully bind to the probe and shorten the binding time, the binding time of MIL and the probe was set to 1min-10min in this experiment. Other conditions were the same (temperature 50°C, volume ratio of the two was 1:10). According to the established separation method, 10 parallel experiments were carried out to determine and calculate the average probe concentration before and after binding, and calculate the binding amount of the probe. The results are shown in Figure 6(c) shows that the amount of probe binding gradually increases with time. After 3-6 minutes, the binding amount increases at a faster rate. At 7 minutes, the maximum binding amount (52,660 ng) is reached, and then the binding amount is stable. Therefore, the binding time of 7 minutes is selected for the subsequent experiments.
[0183] 2.2.2 Optimization results of conditions for capturing DNA using oligonucleotide probe-modified magnetic ionic liquids
[0184] (1) Effect of temperature on DNA capture efficiency
[0185] Too low a temperature can easily lead to non-specific binding of oligonucleotide probes to single-stranded DNA, while too high a temperature can reduce the hybridization efficiency. Therefore, in order to explore the effect of temperature on DNA capture efficiency, in this work, the temperature gradient was set around the Tm (58°C) of the probe-DNA binding fragment. By setting the temperature to 54°C-62°C, other conditions remained unchanged, and 3 replicates were set for each group, parallel experiments were performed according to method 1.2.3, the solution DNA concentration before and after capture was measured, and the solution DNA capture efficiency (W1%) was calculated. The results are shown in Figure 1. Figure 7 As shown in (a), the capture efficiency gradually increased within the temperature range of 54°C-58°C, reaching the maximum capture efficiency (83.10%) at 58°C, and then the capture efficiency showed a downward trend. Therefore, 58°C was selected for subsequent experiments.
[0186] (2) Effect of pH on DNA capture efficiency
[0187] Usually, the pH value of the DNA solution will be different in different environmental matrices or biological samples. The presence of interfering matrix components may affect the capture of DNA by MIL-Probe. In this study, DNA sodium salt solutions with a pH value of 2-12 were used as samples for DNA capture to study the effect of pH on DNA capture efficiency. Other conditions remained unchanged (temperature was 58°C, capture time was 5 min), and each group was set up with 3 replicates. Parallel experiments were performed according to method 1.2.3 to measure the solution DNA concentration before and after capture, and calculate the solution DNA capture efficiency (W1%). The results are shown in Figure 7 In (b), when the pH value increases from 2 to 7, the DNA capture efficiency gradually increases; the highest capture efficiency (84.50%) is achieved when the pH value reaches 7, and then the DNA capture efficiency decreases with the increase of pH value. At the same time, when the pH value is 2 and 12, the color of MIL is observed to change from the original red to green, and the hydrophobicity becomes weaker. Therefore, it is speculated that too high or too low pH value will affect the ionic structure of the MIL material, resulting in the detachment of the probe; at the same time, the extreme acid-base environment will affect the binding of the probe to the single-stranded DNA, resulting in a decrease in the DNA capture efficiency. Therefore, pH = 7 was selected as the subsequent experimental condition. (3) Effect of ionic strength on DNA capture efficiency
[0188] Ionic strength is one of the important factors affecting the extraction performance of biomacromolecules, and electrostatic interactions play a major role in the extraction process. In this experiment, a DNA sodium salt solution with a NaCl concentration of 0.1 mol / L-3.0 mol / L was prepared, and other conditions remained unchanged (temperature was 58°C, pH value was 7). Three replicate groups were set up for each test, and the test was carried out according to method 3.2.3. The average concentration of solution DNA before and after capture was measured and calculated, and the capture efficiency of solution DNA (W1%) was calculated to explore the effect of sodium ion concentration on MIL-Probe capture of DNA. The results are as follows: Figure 7 As shown in (c), when the NaCl concentration is 0.1 mol / L, the capture efficiency is as high as 87.20%. As the ionic strength gradually increases, the DNA capture efficiency decreases significantly. When the NaCl concentration is 3.0 mol / L, MIL-Probe only captures 51.30%.
[0189] 2.2.3 Optimization results of conditions for desorption of DNA by oligonucleotide probe-modified magnetic ionic liquid
[0190] (1) Effect of temperature on desorption efficiency
[0191] Temperature is one of the important factors affecting desorption efficiency. The DNA desorption time of MIL-Probe was set to 30℃-90℃, with 3 replicates in each group. Other conditions were kept unchanged. Parallel experiments were performed according to the method in 1.2.4. The DNA concentration of the desorption solution was measured and the DNA desorption rate of each group was calculated. Figure 8 As shown in (a), the desorption temperature is between 30℃ and 70℃, and the desorption efficiency gradually increases with the increase of temperature, and reaches 90% at 70℃. The desorption efficiency after 70℃ is lower than 90.00%, and the binding and desorption of DNA reach equilibrium. Therefore, the desorption temperature of 70℃ is selected as the subsequent experimental condition.
[0192] (2) Effect of time on desorption efficiency
[0193] The temperature of MIL-Probe DNA desorption was set to 1-25min, with 3 replicates per group. Other conditions were kept unchanged, and parallel tests were performed according to the method in 1.2.4 to determine the DNA concentration of the desorption solution and calculate the desorption rate of each group. Figure 8 As shown in (b), the desorption efficiency increases exponentially when the desorption time is 1 min-15 min, reaching the maximum desorption efficiency (90.51%) at 15 min, and then the desorption efficiency is stable. Therefore, a desorption time of 20 min is selected as the condition for the desorption test.
[0194] 2.2.4 Repeatability test results
[0195] The copy number concentration was 1.05×10 4 The positive plasmid with 100 copies / μL was used as a template to perform intra-group and inter-group repeatability tests. The results are shown in Tables 13 and 14. The calculated intra-group and inter-group relative standard deviation (RSD) values were 2.61% and 3.93%, respectively. The intra-group and inter-group RSD values were both less than 4.00%, proving that the optimized extraction method has good repeatability.

[0200]
[0201] 2.2.5 Results of reusability test
[0202] After four consecutive binding-capture-desorption DNA experiments, the results are as follows Fig. 9 As shown, the DNA extraction efficiency was still 90.20±2.2%, indicating that the optimized extraction method has good reusability.
[0203] 2.2.6 Comparative test results
[0204] The Ct values of the DNA solutions extracted by the two methods were determined by the optimized extraction method. The results are as follows: Fig.10 As shown in the figure, the minimum extraction limits of the two extraction methods were 1.05×10 1 copies / μL and 1.05×10 0 The MIL-Probe extraction method of the present invention has a Ct value that is always lower than that of the kit extraction method, and the amount of extracted DNA is higher than that of the kit extraction method. Therefore, the MIL-Probe extraction method of the present invention is superior to the commercial kit extraction method in terms of both the amount of extracted DNA and the minimum extraction limit.
[0205] Through the above test examples, it can be seen that the present invention has established a method for specific purification and extraction of ASFV based on oligonucleotide probe-modified magnetic ionic liquid (MIL-Probe) and ASFV fluorescence quantitative PCR detection. The synthesized MIL-Probe is used as a specific extraction material, the oligonucleotide probe selectively captures viral DNA, and then the MIL-Probe is quickly separated from the extracted sample by magnetism, and finally a high-quality DNA sample is obtained through a desorption step, which is used for fluorescence quantitative PCR detection.
[0206] The present invention explores the influencing factors of probe binding, DNA capture, and DNA desorption through single factor experiments, and optimizes the experimental conditions of each step:
[0207] (1) Optimization of conditions for the binding of oligonucleotide probes to MIL: By exploring the effects of binding temperature, volume ratio and binding time on the amount of probe binding, and optimizing the binding conditions, the results showed that the probe binding amount reached the maximum value (52,660 ng) under the optimal conditions of binding temperature of 50°C, volume ratio of MIL to probe solution of 1:10, and binding time of 7 min. The results of the binding temperature optimization experiment showed that when the temperature continued to rise above 50°C, the amount of probe binding showed a decreasing trend, but the overall binding amount was not greatly affected by temperature; the results of the volume ratio optimization experiment of MIL to probe solution showed that when the volume ratio of MIL to probe solution exceeded 1:10, floccules appeared on the surface of MIL and affected the binding of the probe. It is speculated that when the number of probes bound to MIL exceeds a certain amount, it is easy to aggregate on the surface of MIL, reducing the affinity between MIL and probe. The results of the binding time optimization experiment showed that the binding of 5μL MIL to the probe reached saturation at 7 min, and then the amount of probe binding no longer increased, reaching the maximum probe binding amount (52,660 ng).
[0208] (2) Optimization of DNA capture conditions by MIL-Probe: By exploring the effects of capture temperature, pH, and ion strength on DNA capture and optimizing capture conditions, the results showed that the DNA capture efficiency of MIL-Probe reached 87.20% under the optimal conditions of capture temperature of 58°C, sample solution pH of 7, and ion strength of 0.1 mol / L. The results of the capture temperature optimization test showed that the capture efficiency was highest when the temperature reached 58°C, which was consistent with the Tm value of the probe. Considering that there are a large number of non-target nucleic acids in actual clinical samples, too low a capture temperature is likely to lead to an increase in non-specific products, and too high a capture temperature will cause the probe to bind weakly to the target nucleic acid. Therefore, 58°C was selected as the capture temperature of the probe. During the pH optimization test, it was observed that extreme pH environments would cause the color of MIL to change from red to green, and the capture efficiency would be greatly reduced. It is speculated that too high or too low pH would easily affect the ionic structure of MIL, causing its physical and chemical properties to change. The results of the pH optimization test showed that with the gradual increase of ionic strength, the DNA capture efficiency decreased significantly. When the NaCl concentration was 3.0 mol / L, MIL-Probe only captured 51.30%. It is speculated that with the increase of ionic strength, the base stacking force increased, resulting in an increase in the annealing temperature of the oligonucleotide probe, and the ability to bind DNA became weaker, resulting in a decrease in capture efficiency. It is also possible that the ionic strength affected the binding of MIL and the probe, causing the probe to fall off. Therefore, the ability of MIL-Probe to capture DNA gradually weakened with the increase of ionic strength.
[0209] (3) Optimization of DNA desorption conditions by MIL-Probe: By exploring the effects of desorption temperature and desorption time on DNA desorption and optimizing the conditions, the results showed that under the optimal conditions of a desorption temperature of 70°C and a desorption time of 15 min, the DNA desorption efficiency could reach 90.51%. The optimized extraction method was used for repeatability tests, and the results showed that the within-group standard deviation (RSD) was 2.61% and the between-group standard deviation was 3.93%. Both RSD values were less than 4%, indicating that this method had good repeatability. The results of repeated use tests showed that although the extraction efficiency decreased with the increase in the number of tests, it was speculated that a small amount of MIL material was lost during the extraction process, but the extraction efficiency remained above 88%, proving that the MIL material used in the present invention has good reusability in DNA extraction. The comparative test results showed that the minimum extraction limit of the optimized extraction method reached 1.05×10 0 The extraction time of the optimized MIL material used in this study is relatively low, and combined with the constructed ASFV fluorescence quantitative PCR detection method, it can complete the early nucleic acid extraction and diagnosis of ASFV, providing technical support for the monitoring and prevention of ASF diseases.
