Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a kit, in particular to a kit for performing multiple nucleic acid detections based on CRISPR / Cas12a combined with universal crRNA, belonging to the field of nucleic acid detection. Background Art

[0002] Nucleic acids include DNA and RNA, which are carriers of genetic information and can be used as markers for the diagnosis of a variety of diseases, such as cancer and pathogenic infectious diseases. Nucleic acid molecular diagnosis has the advantages of high sensitivity, good real-time performance, and simple operation. It is of great significance for the early screening and diagnosis of cancer and pathogenic infectious diseases. Currently, the commonly used nucleic acid detection methods mainly include gene sequencing and nucleic acid amplification detection.

[0003] Most existing nucleic acid detection methods have complex operating steps and rely on expensive instruments and equipment. The CRISPR / Cas system, known as the "gene magic scissors", has shown great potential and advantages in nucleic acid detection. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) is an acquired immune system in bacteria, which together with Cas proteins form the CRISPR / Cas system. Among them, Cas12a, Cas13a and Cas14a activate the "trans-cutting" activity after specifically recognizing the target molecule, and will continue to non-specifically cut other single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) or RNA.

[0004] CrRNA is extremely unstable and expensive in the environment. The amount of crRNA in the traditional CRISPR / Cas system is designed according to a certain viral target nucleic acid. A crRNA can only detect a viral target. In the face of different viral targets, different crRNAs need to be designed, which greatly increases the difficulty and cost of detection. The present invention overcomes this difficulty, using the same crRNA, only needs to bind short-chain DNA or RNA targets to long Track chains, and obtain double-stranded DNA after one-step amplification. The double-stranded DNA region of the amplification includes the binding region of universal crRNA, which is then recognized and cut by Cas12a Reporter, generating a signal, so as to achieve the purpose of using a crRNA to detect multiple viral targets. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a kit for detecting multiple nucleic acids based on CRISPR / Cas12a combined with universal crRNA, which utilizes the trans-cleavage activity of Cas12a and one-step isothermal amplification to achieve the purpose of using one crRNA to identify different targets, thereby detecting multiple viral DNA and RNA.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A kit for performing multiple nucleic acid detections based on CRISPR / Cas12a combined with universal crRNA, including 0.5μL 20μM crRNA (500nM), 0.5μL 10μM Cas12a protein (250nM), 7.5μL buffer 3.1, 0.5μL RNase inhibitor, 1μL 10μM reporter (500nM), 6.25μL buffer 2, 1μL 1μM Track chain (100nM), 0.75μL 8000units / ml Bst DNA polymerase (0.375units / μL) and 1μL 10mM dNTP solution (250μM), measured by the concentration in the system, wherein the concentration in brackets is in the detection system.

[0008] On the basis of the above technical solution, the present invention can also be improved as follows:

[0009] Further, the sequence of the crRNA is: UAA UUU CUA CUC UUG UAG AU GUAA CUA GCA AGAAUA CCA C.

[0010] Furthermore, the sequence of the reporter is: 5'-Texas Red-TGG GAT ATC TTT AAT TTT ATTTTA ACA AGA TAT CCC A-BHQ2-3'.

[0011] Further, the Cas12a protein is a Cpf1 endonuclease.

[0012] Furthermore, the RNase inhibitor is a recombinant obtained from pig liver RNase inhibitor purified from Escherichia coli.

[0013] Further, the Bst DNA polymerase is prepared from an Escherichia coli strain containing a gene fusion of a Lactobacillus acidophilus DNA polymerase gene lacking a 5′→3′ exonuclease structure and a gene encoding an Escherichia coli maltose binding protein (MBP), the fusion protein being purified to near homogeneity, the fused MBP portion being cleaved off in vitro, and the remaining remaining polymerase being purified and free of MBP.

[0014] Furthermore, the dNTP solution is an equimolar solution of ultrapure dATP, dCTP, dGTP and dTTP.

[0015] The method of using the above-mentioned kit of the present invention can be referred to as follows:

[0016] The Track chain, target, and buffer 2 in the universal crRNA nucleic acid detection reagent were added to a centrifuge tube, cooled from 95°C to 25°C for annealing to form a secondary structure, 0.75μL 8000units / ml Bst DNA polymerase and 1μL 10mM dNTP solution were reacted at 37°C for 45min, then heated to 85°C to inactivate the bst polymerase and cooled to room temperature. Subsequently, 0.5μL 20μM crRNA, 0.5μL 10μM Cas12a protein, 7.5μL buffer 3.1, 0.5μL RNase inhibitor, and 1μL 10μM reporter were added, and the resulting mixture was placed in a real-time fluorescence PCR instrument, reacted at 47°C for 8000s, and real-time fluorescence signals were collected.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0018] 1. The present invention uses one crRNA for the first time to detect different DNA or RNA viruses, which expands the detection range of CRISPR / Cas nucleic acid and is suitable for POCT product development. It overcomes the previous phenomenon that one crRNA can only detect one viral nucleic acid, reduces costs, and simplifies the design.

[0019] 2. The kit of the present invention can be used for the detection of a variety of DNA and RNA viruses, and has good analytical performance. Taking the new coronavirus, HPV virus nucleic acid and tumor miRNA as examples, the lowest detectable level is 5pM.

[0020] 3. The present invention can effectively detect HPV-16 pseudovirus. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
