Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of gene detection, and in particular to an HBA and HBB mutation detection system and a method for non-disease diagnosis purposes. Background Art

[0002] Thalassemia is a common hereditary anemia with high morbidity and mortality worldwide, especially in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and the Mediterranean region. α-Thalassemia and β-Thalassemia are the two main types of thalassemia caused by mutations in the HBA1 / 2 and HBB genes, resulting in abnormal α and β globin synthesis and hemoglobin structural defects, respectively.

[0003] Because of the complexity of the HBA locus and the need for the HBA and HBB genes, it is very challenging to perform a joint analysis for the molecular diagnosis of different stages of thalassemia carriers (silent, mild and moderate) and disease states. The HBA locus contains two essentially identical genes, HBA1 and HBA2, which encode the α-hemoglobin chain. The loss of part or all of the function of the HBA1 and HBA2 genes causes α-thalassemia, which is the most common genetic mutation. Including large fragment deletions -THAI, -FIL, -MED and -SEA and small fragment deletions -a 3.7 and -a 4.2 Based on the Ithanet, HbVar, LOVD, and LOVD-China thalassemia databases, about 50 deletions in the α-globin gene cluster region and more than 900 non-deletion mutations in the HBA1 and HBA2 genes have been found worldwide, which can lead to reduced or absent α-globin expression. In addition, there are some rare structural variations, such as ααα anti3.7 , ααα anti4.2 , HKαα and antiHKαα, etc. Relatively speaking, β-thalassemia is simpler, encoding only a single HBB gene for the b-hemoglobin chain. The main genetic lesions found in the HBB gene are mainly single nucleotide variants (SNVs), insertions and deletions. To date, more than 200 pathogenic variants have been identified worldwide.

[0004] Molecular diagnostic methods can effectively detect mutations in HBA1 / 2 and HBB genes. There are currently a variety of molecular diagnostic methods for HBA1 / 2 and HBB genes, such as gap-PCR, PCR reverse dot hybridization (PCR-RDB), PCR oligonucleotide probe method (PCR-ASO), and next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology. However, the current traditional detection methods are not only cumbersome to operate, but also cannot accurately detect complex structural variations, such as being unable to distinguish between HKαα and -α 3.7, and cannot distinguish between antiHKαα and -α 4.2 At the same time, it is difficult to detect all mutation types of HBA and HBB at the same time, especially uncommon mutation types. In addition, some patients will have two HBA and HBB gene mutations at the same time, and these traditional detection methods cannot detect whether the two mutations are linked. Although some detection methods have been derived based on the third-generation sequencing, such as using different primers to perform Long-PCR on the target fragment and then detect the target mutation, this type of method has the limitation that it can only detect known mutations, and PCR has preferences. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention aims to provide a HBA and HBB mutation detection system and a method for non-disease diagnosis purposes, so as to detect the complex variation types of the HBA gene and whether the two mutations of the HBA and HBB genes are linked.

[0006] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] In one aspect, the present invention provides an HBA and HBB mutation detection system, comprising an acquisition module, a Y-shaped pre-library preparation module, a targeted enrichment module, a single-molecule real-time sequencing library construction module, and a single-molecule real-time sequencing analysis module;

[0008] The collection module is used to collect peripheral blood from the subject to be tested and to extract and shear high molecular weight DNA;

[0009] The Y-shaped pre-library preparation module is used to perform end repair and 3'A-tailing reaction on the extracted and sheared high molecular weight DNA, and perform Y-shaped adapter connection, and then use a long-fragment amplification enzyme to perform long-fragment PCR amplification to obtain a Y-shaped pre-library;

[0010] The targeted enrichment module is used to hybridize and target-enrich the target gene using the target region capture probe according to the Y-shaped pre-library to obtain a capture library;

[0011] The single-molecule real-time sequencing library construction module is used to perform sequencing adapter connection according to the captured library to obtain a single-molecule real-time sequencing library;

[0012] The single-molecule real-time sequencing analysis module is used to perform single-molecule real-time sequencing with a single-molecule real-time sequencing library, obtain sequencing data of a target region, decompose the sequencing data of the target region, and analyze the variation types of HBA and HBB.

[0013] Further, the target region capture range of the target region capture probe labeled with biotin is: HBA1: chr16: 203679-207521, HBA2: chr16: 202875-203709 and HBB: chr11: 5226694-5228301;

[0014] The nucleotide sequences of the target region capture probes labeled with biotin are shown in SEQ ID No: 1-SEQ ID No232.

[0015] In another aspect, the present invention provides a method for detecting HBA and HBB mutations for non-disease diagnosis purposes, comprising:

[0016] Collect peripheral blood from the subjects and perform high molecular weight DNA extraction and shearing;

[0017] The extracted and sheared high molecular weight DNA is subjected to end repair and 3'A-tailing reaction, and Y-shaped adapter ligation is performed, and then long-fragment PCR amplification is performed using a long-fragment amplification enzyme to obtain a Y-shaped pre-library;

[0018] Based on the Y-shaped pre-library, the target region capture probe is used to hybridize and target enrich the target gene to obtain a capture library;

[0019] According to the captured library, the sequencing adapter is connected to obtain a single-molecule real-time sequencing library;

[0020] Single-molecule real-time sequencing was performed using a single-molecule real-time sequencing library to obtain sequencing data of the target region, which was then decomposed to analyze the variation types of HBA and HBB.

[0021] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: the detection results are accurate. In addition to conventional detection, it can accurately distinguish mutations in HBA1 / HBA2 and accurately detect complex structural variations such as large fragment deletions and triplets. It can detect whether the two mutations of HBA and HBB genes are linked, and detect unknown mutations that have not been reported so far. The accuracy is high. PacBio's dumbbell-shaped library can be interpreted multiple times during sequencing. The base accuracy of the sequencing results after correction is greater than 99%. In addition, PacBio sequencing errors are random. The base accuracy is greater than 99.9% after sequencing depth correction, and the gene mutations within the primer detection range can be accurately interpreted. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0035] (2) Mix the fragmented DNA to be screened with the diluted fragment screening magnetic beads in a ratio of 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, or 1:4.

[0036] (3) Briefly centrifuge the tube to concentrate the magnetic bead / DNA mixture at the bottom of the tube. Place the tube on a magnetic rack for 5-10 minutes or until the magnetic beads gather on the side of the tube and the supernatant becomes clear. Slowly remove the clear supernatant to avoid disturbing the magnetic beads.

[0037] (4) Wash the magnetic beads twice with fresh 80% ethanol. After 30 seconds, remove the 80% ethanol with a pipette.

[0074] (4) The Y-shaped pre-library PCR products were screened for fragments, aiming to control short fragments below 3 kb to less than 10%.

[0075] ① Dilute AmpureXP beads (Beckman, A63881) in 1 mM Tris-HCl pH 8 at 1×, 2×, 3× or 4× ratios.

[0076] ② Mix the Y-shaped pre-library PCR product to be screened with the diluted fragment screening magnetic beads in a ratio of 1:1, 1:2, 1:3 or 1:4.

The proportion of fragments below 3kbp should be less than 10%, otherwise it will be regarded as an unqualified Y-shaped pre-library PCR product.

[0081] 7. Hybridization of the Y-shaped pre-library with the biotin-labeled double-stranded DNA probe

[0082] The components of the capture kit used in this example refer to patent ZL202011284834.1

[0083] (1) In this embodiment, the target gene region is shown in Table 6. The target gene region and the upstream and downstream extended 500bp-1.5kb sequence are extracted from the UCSC or NCBI database with the GRCh37 / hg19 gene sequence as the reference genome sequence. The probe is designed after removing the repeated region. 120bp is intercepted from the first base as the first probe sequence. At the same time, the density of the probe is adjusted according to the size of the GC content, wherein the HBA probe region is GRCh37 / hg19, chr16: 201565-208687; the HBB probe region is GRCh37 / hg19, chr11: 5225768-5229935. The capture probe used to enrich the target gene and the flanking region is a biotin-labeled DNA double-stranded probe, and the probe sequence table is shown in Table 7.

[0101] (2) The hybridization reaction can be performed as a single hybrid or a multi-hybrid. For a multi-hybrid, multiple Y-shaped pre-libraries need to be mixed at equal molecular weights according to the following formula: fmol = (concentration * 10 6 ) / [650*length(bp)].

[0102] (3) Vacuum concentrate a single library or a mixed library of equal molecular weight to a dry powder state, and resuspend the library according to the components in Table 8.

[0103] Table 8 Library resuspension reagents

[0104]

[0105] (4) Denature the resuspended library and probe according to the PCR program in Table 9.

[0106] Table 9 Denaturation PCR program table

[0107]

[0108]

[0109] (5) Add 20 μl of hybridization buffer preheated at 65°C for at least 5 min to the denatured pre-library and probe mixture. Incubate the mixture at 65°C with the heated lid at 85°C for 16-18 hours.

[0110] 8. Targeted Enrichment

[0111] (1) Preheat the streptavidin magnetic beads at 65°C for at least 10 min, then transfer the hybridization products directly from the 65°C condition to the 65°C streptavidin magnetic beads. Be sure not to cool the hybridization product temperature to room temperature, otherwise it will cause serious off-target effects.

[0112] (2) After the hybridization product is bound to the streptavidin magnetic beads, the hybridization product and the streptavidin magnetic beads are rinsed and eluted.

[0113] (3) The eluted product was captured and then PCR was performed using a long fragment specific amplification enzyme. The amplification system is shown in Table 10.

[0146] 7. Sequencing and result analysis

[0147] The prepared library was sequenced using a third-generation single-molecule sequencer (PacBio Revio), so that the average sequencing depth of the target region reached more than 50×.

[0148] The obtained data is split and analyzed. The specific analysis method is as follows:

[0149] 1) Sample data splitting:

[0150] Lima software was used to split the PacBio sequencing data according to the index in the sample, and the index sequence was removed to obtain the cleaned data. This step ensures the purity and accuracy of the sample data and lays the foundation for subsequent analysis.

[0151] 2) Alignment to the reference genome:

[0152] Minimap2 was used to align the sequencing data to the human reference genome (hg19). During the alignment process, all non-human sequences that were not aligned to the reference genome were removed to ensure the accuracy and specificity of the data.

[0153] 3) Data quality control:

[0154] NanoPlot was used to perform quality control statistical analysis on the sequencing data of the target region, covering the following indicators:

[0155] Data volume: Count the total amount of sequencing data to ensure sufficient data;

[0156] Mapping rate: the ratio of sequencing data of the target region mapped to the reference genome (hg19);

[0157] Fragment length: Evaluate the fragment length distribution of the data to determine the quality of the sequencing data;

[0158] Capture efficiency: Evaluate the capture efficiency of the target area to ensure that the target area is adequately covered.

[0159] Coverage statistics: Ensure that the coverage depth of the target area is greater than 50X. Coverage is a key indicator for judging whether the sequencing data is sufficient. High coverage helps improve the accuracy of variant detection.

[0160] 4) SNV analysis:

[0161] Single nucleotide variant (SNV) analysis was performed on the BAM files of the samples using the DeepVariant tool. DeepVariant is a deep learning-based variant detection tool with high accuracy and sensitivity, capable of identifying various SNVs in the HBA and HBB genes.

[0162] 5) SV analysis:

[0163] Use cuteSV to perform structural variation (SV) analysis on the sample BAM file. SV analysis can identify a wide range of genomic rearrangements, such as deletions, insertions, inversions, etc. The SV analysis results are compared with known common variant types (such as 3.7, 4.2, 2.4, SEA, Hong Kong, Thai type, etc.) to accurately determine the mutation type of the target region.

[0164] 6) Variant annotation and disease association analysis:

[0165] Annovar and VEP were used to annotate SNVs in detail. The annotation contents included:

[0166] Mutation information: such as nucleotide changes, amino acid changes, HGVS nomenclature, genotype, etc.;

[0167] Population frequency: for example, the frequency of mutations in the 1000g and gnomAD databases;

[0168] Disease and phenotype information: including ACMG pathogenicity judgment of the variant, inheritance mode (such as dominant, recessive), disease phenotypic characteristics, etc.;

[0169] Prediction tools and scoring: such as spliceAI, SIFT, PolyPhen-2, REVEL_score, GERP++, etc., are used to evaluate the potential impact of variants on gene function.

[0170] According to the above construction process, an HBA and HBB mutation detection system was constructed, including an acquisition module, a Y-shaped pre-library preparation module, a targeted enrichment module, a single-molecule real-time sequencing library construction module, and a single-molecule real-time sequencing analysis module;

[0171] The collection module is used to collect peripheral blood from the subject to be tested and to extract and shear high molecular weight DNA;

[0172] The Y-shaped pre-library preparation module is used to perform end repair and 3'A-tailing reaction on the extracted and sheared high molecular weight DNA, and perform Y-shaped adapter connection, and then use long-fragment amplification enzyme to perform long-fragment PCR amplification to obtain a Y-shaped pre-library;

[0173] The targeted enrichment module is used to hybridize and target-enrich the target gene using the target region capture probe according to the Y-shaped pre-library to obtain a capture library;

[0174] The single-molecule real-time sequencing library construction module is used to perform sequencing adapter connection based on the captured library to obtain a single-molecule real-time sequencing library;

[0175] The single-molecule real-time sequencing analysis module is used to perform single-molecule real-time sequencing with a single-molecule real-time sequencing library, obtain sequencing data of the target region, decompose the sequencing data of the target region, and analyze the variation types of HBA and HBB.

[0176] Example 2

[0177] 10 positive test samples were tested according to the HBA and HBB mutation detection systems in Example 1. The results showed that the present invention can intuitively and correctly detect the mutation types of positive samples (Table 16), and for samples that are vaguely judged by traditional methods (samples 3, 5, 8, and 9), the mutation types can also be clearly determined, and the breakpoint positions can be accurately seen. At the same time, samples with inconsistent results were verified by PCR or PCR-Sanger sequencing, and the results were consistent with the method of the present invention.

[0178] Table 16 Test sample test results

[0179]

[0180]

[0181] illustrate:

[0182] Sample 1: The detection results of the two methods are consistent, and the present invention can clearly see the breakpoint position.

[0183] Sample 2: The detection results of the two methods are consistent, and the present invention can clearly see the breakpoint position.

[0184] Sample 3: See Figure 2 , Figure 3 The present invention has a wider detection range. The second-generation sequencing data fluctuates greatly and it is impossible to determine whether HBA is a 3.7kb deletion. After repeated verification by PCR-Sanger, it is indeed HBA.

[0185] -α3.7 / αα, the method used in the present invention directly indicates HBA, -α3.7 / αα, and the breakpoint position can be clearly seen; the second generation of HBB point mutation is consistent with the method used in the present invention.

[0186] Sample 4: The detection results of the two methods are consistent, and the present invention can clearly see the breakpoint position.

[0187] Sample 5: The method of using the present invention can distinguish -α 3.7 The second generation judgment result is relatively vague, and the method used in the present invention can directly judge it as ααα anti4.2 / -α 3.7 Compound mutations were detected, and the breakpoints were clearly visible. The results were verified by PCR-Sanger analysis, which was consistent with the results of the present invention.

[0188] Sample 6: The detection results of the two methods are consistent, and the present invention can clearly see the breakpoint position.

[0189] Sample 7: The detection results of the two methods are consistent, and the present invention can clearly see the breakpoint position.

[0190] Sample 8: The present invention has a wider detection range. The missing 29kb fragment region includes 3.7kb and 2.4kb regions. The second-generation sequencing can only roughly determine it as HBA, -α 3.7 / -α 2.4 Compound deletion mutation, while the method used in the present invention can directly determine the unknown 29kb deletion mutation and clearly see the breakpoint position.

[0191] Sample 9: The detection range of structural variation of the present invention is wider. The method of the present invention can directly determine the variation type as HBA, αααα anti3.7 / ααα anti3.7 , and the breakpoint position can be clearly seen. And it is consistent with the PCR-Sanger repeated verification results.

[0192] Sample 10: The detection results of the two methods are consistent, and the present invention can clearly see the breakpoint position.

[0193] In summary, the present invention can detect complex mutation types such as HBA / HBB point mutations, large fragment deletions, multi-copy mutations, Hong Kong type and anti-Hong Kong type, and can accurately identify cis- and trans-mutations without the need for family verification and negative sample controls.

[0194] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described with reference to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes may be made in form and details without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims.
