Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of rapid detection methods, and particularly to a one-step detection method for Escherichia coli in urinary tract infections for non-disease diagnosis or non-therapeutic purposes. Background Art
[0002] Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is one of the most common pathogens causing urinary tract infections, and its infection route usually involves migration from the intestine to the urinary system. UPEC is part of the intestinal flora and usually resides in the intestine, coexisting with the human body. Under normal circumstances, the beneficial flora in the intestine can inhibit the growth and spread of UPEC. However, when the balance of the intestinal flora is disrupted or the host's defense mechanism is damaged, UPEC may overgrow and migrate from the intestine to the urinary system.
[0003] Conventional detection methods for Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) cover a variety of techniques, including microbial culture, molecular biology detection (such as polymerase chain reaction, PCR), and mass spectrometry analysis. Microbial culture, as a traditional method for detecting UPEC, is considered the gold standard for detection. This method involves inoculating urine samples onto specific culture media and then culturing the bacteria under suitable conditions. Based on the bacterial culture, the biochemical characteristics of the bacteria are observed to confirm whether it is UPEC. However, this method takes a long time, usually 12 - 24 hours to complete, requires professional laboratory equipment and operators, and some UPEC strains that do not grow or grow slowly may not be detected by the culture method. Other methods include molecular biology methods, usually including PCR and its derivative techniques, and immunological methods such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Methods such as PCR usually require expensive laboratory equipment and professional technical personnel for operation, and immunological methods have detection windows. Although molecular biology methods are highly sensitive, they do not always meet the requirements of rapidity, low cost, and simple operation simultaneously. Mass spectrometry analysis identifies UPEC by analyzing the mass fingerprint of bacterial proteins or peptides, and there are also problems such as the high cost of mass spectrometers and the need for professional training for operation and maintenance.
[0004] To overcome these limitations, researchers are developing new detection techniques, such as the RPA-CRISPR / Cas12a method, which combines isothermal nucleic acid amplification and CRISPR gene editing technology, can complete the detection of UPEC in a shorter time, has simple operation, does not rely on expensive laboratory equipment, and is expected to become an ideal on-site rapid detection method.
[0005] However, the existing RPA-CRISPR / Cas12a method for detecting Escherichia coli in urinary tract infections still has some defects. For example, in the existing detection operation process, the RPA amplification reaction is first carried out, and then the PRA reaction product is transferred to the CRISPR / Cas12a reaction system. It is necessary to open the lid to transfer the amplification product, which increases the risk of aerosol contamination. In addition, there are also problems of relatively high cross-reactivity and the need for further improvement in sensitivity and specificity. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The object of the present invention is to provide a one-step detection method for Escherichia coli in urinary tract infections for non-disease diagnosis or non-therapeutic purposes, aiming at the problems existing in the prior art, such as the risk of aerosol contamination during detection, relatively high cross-reactivity, and the need for further improvement in sensitivity and specificity. By optimizing the RPA primers, crRNA and reaction conditions, under these optimized conditions, the RPA reaction system and the CRISPR / Cas12a reaction system can be premixed in one tube and the reaction can be completed by a one-step method, which can specifically detect UPEC without cross-reaction with common pathogenic bacteria, can avoid the competitive effect between CRISPR / Cas12a and RPA, ensuring the reaction rate and sensitivity. At the same time, since there is no need to open the lid, the risk of nucleic acid aerosol contamination is also avoided; secondly, the method provided by the present invention can achieve rapid, sensitive and specific detection of Escherichia coli in urinary tract infections.

Plasmid and clinical sample preparation The chuA gene of Escherichia coli causing urinary tract infection (GenBank: U67920.1) is selected as the detection target gene, and a plasmid carrying the chuA gene is synthesized by Sangon Biotech (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. The clinical strain is cultured in Luria-Bertani (LB) broth culture medium at a constant temperature of 37 °C with shaking (120 r / min) for 12 hours, heated at 95 °C for 5 minutes, and then centrifuged, and the supernatant is taken as the template.
[0040] Step 2. Primer design Using the chuA gene of Escherichia coli causing urinary tract infection as the detection target gene, according to the RPA primer design principle, 3 pairs of RPA forward and reverse candidate primers are designed using the primer design software Primer Premier 6, and the specificity of the primers is verified online using NCBI-BLAST. The primers and the target fragment are shown in Table 1, and all primers are synthesized by Sangon Biotech (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.
[0041] Table 1 Primer sequences Name Sequence (5’→3’) F1 TTACCTCGTTGCGTTTGAGTTTGTTGGCTTTG R1 GCAGTTTGATTTTCAGGAGCGGAAGTGTCG F2 GCGTTTGAGTTTGTTGGCTTTGGCTGTTTC R2 GCAGTTTGATTTTCAGGAGCGGAAGTGTCG F3 GTTTGAGTTTGTTGGCTTTGGCTGTTTCTG R3 CCACGCATATTTACATCCTGACCGTTGGTT Step 3. RPA amplification reaction system 14.7 μL of RPA Basic reaction buffer (the DNA isothermal rapid amplification kit (basic type) was purchased from AmpFuture (Changzhou) Biotechnology Co., Ltd.), 1.25 μL of 280 mM MgOAc, 1 μL of 10 μM upstream primer (F), 1 μL of 10 μM downstream primer (R), 1.2 μL of template, 5.85 μL of DEPC-treated water, for a total of 25 μL. The prepared reaction system is reacted at 39 °C for 15 minutes, and then the results can be observed.
[0042] Step 4. Reaction system of one-step RPA-CRISPR / Cas12a reaction The one-step reaction integrates the RPA reaction and the CRISPR / Cas12a (EnGen® Lba Cas12a (Cpf1) nuclease was purchased from NEB England Biolabs (Beijing)) reaction in one tube. The reaction system is as follows: 14.7 μL of RPA Basic reaction buffer, 1.25 μL of 280 mM MgOAc, 1 μL of 10 μM upstream primer (F), 1 μL of 10 μM downstream primer (R), 1.2 μL of template, 0.875 μL of 1 μM CRISPR / Cas12a, 1.75 μL of 1 μM crRNA, 0.875 μL of 10 μM ssDNA probe, 3.5 μL of 10X R2.1 buffer, 8.85 μL of DEPC-treated water, and the total volume of the system is 35 μL. Subsequently, the reaction is carried out at 37 °C for 25 minutes in a real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR instrument, and the fluorescence signal is observed in real time.
[0043] Step 5. Condition optimization RPA primer screening: Using the plasmid with the chuA gene of Escherichia coli with urinary tract infection at a concentration of 10 4 copies / μL as the template, and using DEPC-treated water instead of the plasmid as a control, amplify with different RPA primer pairs according to the conditions in Step 3. Subsequently, add an equal volume of phenol:chloroform:isoamyl alcohol (25:24:1) extraction solution to the reaction tube, mix well, centrifuge at 12000 rpm for 5 min, aspirate the supernatant, and extract the amplification product. The amplification product is added with 6×SuperStain Loading Buffer at a ratio of 5:1, fully mixed, and electrophoresed on a 1.5% agarose gel at a constant voltage of 90 V for 30 min, and developed with a gel imager to observe the results. The results are as shown in Figure 1 A. According to the thickness of the bands of the amplification products, primer 3 has the best effect. The sensitivity of primer 3 is verified and can reach 10 1 copies / μL, as shown in Figure 1 B.

[0046] (2) Design and screening of crRNA: Design crRNA according to the optimal RPA primer amplification sequence, and the specific sequences are shown in Table 2; React with different crRNAs in the system described in step 4, and select the best crRNA according to the intensity of the fluorescence signal and the time to reach the plateau. The results are as Figure 2 shown. The time for crRNA1 to reach the plateau is shorter and the end-point fluorescence value is higher, so crRNA1 is selected for the following experiments.
[0047] Table 2 Sequences of crRNA and ssDNA probes Name Sequence (5’→3’) crRNA1 UAAUUUCUACUAAGUGUAGAUCGGCAACGGGGAAUGCACGU crRNA2 UAAUUUCUACUAAGUGUAGAUGAAGGAACUACGUGCAUUCC ssDNA probe FAM-TTATT-BHQ (3) Optimization of CRISPR / Cas12a system: Using plasmid (2.82×10 4 copies / μL) as a template, optimize reaction conditions such as Cas12a concentration (25 nM, 50 nM, 75 nM, 100 nM), Cas12a / crRNA ratio (1:1, 1:1.5, 1:2), ssDNA probe concentration (150 nM, 250 nM, 350 nM), etc. Plot the fluorescence values at 25 min of reaction. The results are as Figure 3 in A Figure 3 in B Figure 3For C in it, the fluorescence values vary little at different Cas12a concentrations. Considering cost - effectiveness, the lowest concentration of 25 nM was selected as the final concentration. As the ratio of crRNA:Cas12a increases, the fluorescence value gradually increases, and finally the ratio of Cas12a:crRNA = 1:2 was selected as the final ratio. As the concentration of the ssDNA probe increases, the fluorescence value also increases, but there is no significant difference in the fluorescence values of the 250 nM and 300 nM ssDNA probes. Therefore, 250 nM probe was selected as the final concentration. Figure 3 A. Optimization of Cas12a concentration in it; Figure 3 B. Optimization of the Cas12a / crRNA ratio in it; Figure 3 C. Optimization of the ssDNA probe concentration in it; The concentration of the plasmid template used was 10 4 copies / μL; Error bars represent the standard deviation of three repeated experiments.
[0048] Step 6, Nucleic acid extraction method for Escherichia coli causing urinary tract infection Nucleic acids of Escherichia coli causing urinary tract infection were extracted by the boiling method. The suspension of Escherichia coli causing urinary tract infection was directly thermally lysed at 95 °C for 5 min, centrifuged, and the supernatant was used as the template for the RPA - CRISPR / Cas12a reaction.
[0049] Step 7, Sensitivity test of the one - step RPA - CRISPR / Cas12a detection method For the sensitivity detection using the plasmid as the template, the plasmid standard containing the chuA target fragment of Escherichia coli causing urinary tract infection was serially diluted to 2.8×10 2 copies / μL, 2.8×10 1 copies / μL and 2.8×10 0 copies / μL. At the same time, DEPC - treated water was used as a negative control. According to the optimized reaction system in Step 4, 1.2 μL of the plasmid dilution was taken, and the RPA - CRISPR / Cas12a reaction was carried out at 39 °C for 30 min. The fluorescence signal was collected in real - time using a real - time fluorescence quantitative PCR instrument, and the fluorescence value at 25 min of the reaction was plotted ( Figure 4 ), and the reaction results showed that this method can detect plasmid standards as low as 1×10 0 copies / μL.
[0050] Step 8, Specificity test of the one - step RPA - CRISPR / Cas12a detection method DNA of pathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia coli causing urinary tract infection and Klebsiella oxytoca was extracted by the boiling method as the template, and the one - step RPA - CRISPR / Cas12a detection was carried out. The fluorescence value at 25 min of the reaction was plotted ( Figure 5). The results showed that this method had high specificity for Escherichia coli in urinary tract infections, and there was no cross-reaction during the detection process.
[0051] From the results of the above-mentioned various embodiments, it can be seen that the present invention can quickly, sensitively, specifically and accurately detect UPEC. It avoids cross-contamination of samples or the environment. This method has strong anti-interference ability, does not require complex nucleic acid extraction steps, and only simple thermal lysis can complete the sample pretreatment link. This method realizes one-step RPA-CRISPR / Cas12a detection, does not require complex liquid preparation and liquid transfer links, simplifies the experimental steps, and reduces the possibility of aerosol contamination. In summary, this method can achieve rapid and accurate on-site UPEC detection.
