Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of biochemical detection, and particularly relates to a construction method of a real-time monitoring intracellular ATP content sensor and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Adenine nucleotide triphosphate (ATP for short) has a chemical formula of C 10 H 16 N5O 13 P3, a molecular weight of 507.18, is an unstable high-energy compound composed of 1 molecule of adenine, 1 molecule of ribose and 3 molecules of phosphate groups.
[0003] ATP, as the energy "currency" in cells, is involved in almost all life activities of cells, including cell growth, replication, aging, carcinogenesis and stress. In cell energy metabolism, ATP, as the product or raw material of energy metabolism, directly reflects the direction of cell energy metabolism through dynamic changes in its content. In addition, in many cell metabolic activities, many kinases act as important regulatory enzymes of metabolic reactions. For example, in the GPCR signaling pathway, PKA, as a key enzyme in the pathway, promotes the transmission of intracellular second messenger signaling pathways to the nucleus after activation. Cells directly up-regulate or inhibit the activity of kinases by adjusting the real-time ATP content in cells, thereby realizing the regulation of intracellular signaling pathways and other metabolic activities. In the medical field, there is also a need for real-time monitoring of intracellular ATP content. In the detection and treatment of diabetes, drug activation of AMPK is a major research direction, and the normal activity of AMPK in cells is directly regulated by the dynamic changes in intracellular AMP / ATP content. Therefore, the real-time content of ATP can be used as a direct proof of the efficacy of AMPK drugs. In addition, at present, the intracellular drug efficacy detection methods for diabetes research and drugs almost only include the expression content of target proteins or the expression content of their transcripts, while the real-time ATP content in cells can not only be used as an indicator of cell state after drug treatment, but also be used as a direct indicator of drug efficacy in drug development targeting cell energy metabolism.
[0004] Currently, there are many ways to detect ATP, such as NADPH method and luciferase method, and many ATP detection kits have also been developed. Among them, the ATP detection kits of Biyun Tian, Yeasen, MCE, Biosharp and Thermofisher Biotech Company are based on the luciferase method, the principle of which is that ATP reacts with the substrate luciferin under the action of luciferase to produce fluorescence, and when luciferase and substrate luciferin are in excess, the fluorescence intensity is proportional to the ATP concentration within a certain concentration range, so that the ATP concentration in the sample is detected by measuring the fluorescence intensity. Some biotech companies, such as Shengwo, use NADPH method to make ATP detection kit, the principle of which is that Hexo Kinase catalyzes glucose and ATP to synthesize 6-phosphoglucose, and 6-phosphoglucose dehydrogenase further catalyzes 6-phosphoglucose to generate NADPH, which has a characteristic absorption peak at 340 nm, and the content of NADPH is proportional to the content of ATP.
[0005] Currently, there are many ways to detect ATP, and many ATP detection kits have also been developed, but the common detection kits on the market all need to break the cells, and different kits use different reagents in the process of cell breaking due to the difference in principle, so there is a problem of complicated operation, which also increases the possible variables in the experimental process, and the above kits all detect the ATP content in the cell breaking liquid, which makes the detection result lag behind the intracellular ATP content, and also affects the experimental precision. With the continuous deepening of research in the biological field, the demand for a technology that can detect the intracellular ATP content in real time will increase, and there is no detection method that can reflect the intracellular ATP content in real time. SUMMARY
[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the purpose of the present application is to provide a construction method of a real-time monitoring intracellular ATP content sensor. The present application can detect the intracellular ATP content in real time without breaking the cells, has wide universality and is convenient to operate; in addition, based on real-time detection, the present technology can also provide real-time energy indicators for cell physiological state detection.
[0007] To achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme adopted by the present application is as follows:
[0008] A recombinant plasmid for monitoring intracellular ATP content, the plasmid comprising hDndB and DN-luc, which are simultaneously controlled by a common promoter.
[0009] The hDndB is obtained by codon optimization of DndB protein, and the optimized nucleotide sequence is shown in SEQ ID NO. 1.
[0010] Further, the DN-luc is Gaussia secreted luciferase; the sequence of the DN-luc is shown as SEQ ID NO. 2.
[0011] Further, the hDndB and the DN-luc are connected through an IRES sequence.
[0012] Further, the IRES sequence is shown as SEQ ID NO. 3.
[0013] The sequence of the hDndB and the DN-luc connected through the IRES sequence is shown as SEQ ID NO. 4.
[0014] The application further provides an application of the recombinant plasmid in preparing a product for monitoring intracellular ATP content.
[0015] Further, the product is a kit.
[0016] The use method of the product is: the recombinant plasmid is transfected into cells for culture, and the intracellular ATP content can be determined after 12-48 hours of transfection.
[0017] Further, the transfection time is 24 hours.
[0018] The prokaryotic DndB and its promoter sequence are found, and the DndB is codon-optimized and named as hDndB. Because in the prokaryote, the DndB can combine with the self promoter to inhibit the self transcription, the ATP can combine the DndB on the promoter, thereby relieving the inhibition of the DndB on the self transcription, so that the DndB protein can be expressed. When the ATP content is extremely low, the DndB is in the inhibition state, and the expression content is low, when the ATP content increases, the expression of the DndB also increases, that is, the ATP content and the DndB protein content are positively correlated.
[0019] The hDndB and DN-luc co-expression plasmid is constructed. The DN-luc is a secreted luciferase reporter gene, the DN-luc is connected with the hDndB through an IRES sequence, so that the hDndB and the DN-luc become a shared promoter but the proteins can play a role respectively, that is, the expression of the DN-luc is proportional to the expression of the hDndB. The luciferase in the supernatant is detected, so that the hDndB protein content, that is, the ATP content can be known.
[0020] The above recombinant plasmid is transfected into 293T cells for verification. The standard curve between the ATP content and the luciferase content is established by detecting the ATP content and the luciferase content.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the application has the following beneficial effects:
[0022] The present invention co-expresses hDndB and DN-luc and realizes independent translation through an IRES linker, thereby avoiding the mutual influence of the formed fusion proteins; utilizing the ATP content detection characteristics of hDndB, the intracellular ATP content is positively correlated with the DN-luc content, and the intracellular ATP content is determined by detecting the luciferase content in the cell supernatant.
[0023] The present invention does not require cell disruption, can detect intracellular ATP content in real time, has wide versatility, and is easy to operate; in addition, based on real-time detection, this technology can also provide real-time energy indicators for cell physiological status detection.
