Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of non-tuberculous mycobacteria nucleic acid detection, and in particular to a primer and probe composition for non-tuberculous mycobacteria typing and applications thereof. Background Art
[0002] Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) refer to mycobacteria other than the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex and Mycobacterium leprae. Currently, there are over 190 known NTM species, approximately one-third of which can infect humans, causing infection of vital tissues and organs such as the lungs, lymph nodes, and joints, leading to systemic disseminated disease and, in severe cases, even death. In recent years, the incidence of NTM lung disease has rapidly increased worldwide.
[0003] Studies have shown that the symptoms and imaging manifestations of different NTM infections are very similar, but treatment options vary significantly. Blindly prescribing medication to NTM patients can easily lead to the emergence of drug-resistant strains and worsen their condition. To better diagnose, treat, and prevent NTM infections, there is an urgent need to develop rapid, accurate, and simple clinical identification methods for common NTM species. Molecular diagnostic technology offers new possibilities for rapid detection and accurate identification of NTM infections, playing a key role in early diagnosis.
[0004] The simplest and most rapid molecular diagnostic methods used in clinical practice are primarily based on specific gene sequence typing methods, including PCR (polymerase chain reaction) technology, direct hybridization probes, line probe assays (LPA), gene chips, reverse blot hybridization assays (REBA), and multicolor melting curve analysis. Among these methods, PCR is widely used for mycobacterial typing due to its low cost, minimal equipment requirements, and availability in primary care hospitals. PCR is a molecular biology technique for amplifying specific DNA fragments in vitro. Its basic principle is to use a parent DNA template and, through a three-step cycle of denaturation, annealing, and extension, utilize DNA polymerase to synthesize daughter DNA strands complementary to the parent template in vitro. Derived from this approach, asymmetric PCR, qPCR, and multiplex PCR techniques have been widely used in genotyping.
[0005] Existing PCR technology for NTM typing has problems with accuracy and specificity. PCR primers for NTM species are usually designed based on only one or certain specific genes, such as the 16S RNA coding gene (16S DNA), the 16S-23S rRNA intergenic region (ITS), the β-subunit of RNA polymerase (rpoB), and the heat shock protein 65 (hsp65) coding gene. The obtained products have limited differences between various mycobacterial species, resulting in extensive cross-reactivity between target NTM species. For example, it is impossible to distinguish between Mycobacterium chelonae and Mycobacterium abscessus, Mycobacterium kansasii and Mycobacterium gastricis, and Mycobacterium marinum and Mycobacterium ulcerans. CN104131100B discloses a fluorescent PCR reaction solution for identifying 12 types of mycobacteria, comprising amplification primers and molecular beacon probes; the molecular beacon probes have a fluorescent group and a quenching group at both ends, respectively. The invention provides a pair of primers and 12 probes that specifically detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium avium intracellulare, Mycobacterium abscessus, Mycobacterium fortuitum, Mycobacterium kansasii, Mycobacterium chelonae, Mycobacterium gordonii, Mycobacterium toad, Mycobacterium smegmatis, Mycobacterium marinum, Mycobacterium scrofulae, and Mycobacterium phlei. However, the invention cannot distinguish between Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare, which are very common in clinical practice. However, the Myco-Panel method based on multiplex PCR cannot distinguish Mycobacterium marinum from Mycobacterium ulcerans (Microbiol Spectr. 2023, 11(3):e0516222). In the inventor's previous research, the multiplex RT-PCR method developed for identifying major pathogenic mycobacteria in clinical samples could not distinguish between Mycobacterium avium / intracellulare and Mycobacterium chelonae / abscessus (Heliyon. 2024, 11(1):e41384).
[0006] Existing technologies are unable to simultaneously distinguish between the 13 non-tuberculous mycobacteria listed above, including Mycobacterium avium, Mycobacterium intracellulare, Mycobacterium massa, Mycobacterium abscessus, Mycobacterium chelonae, Mycobacterium kansasii, Mycobacterium fortuitum, Mycobacterium toadense, Mycobacterium marinum, Mycobacterium ulcerans, Mycobacterium gordonii, Mycobacterium paragordonii, and Mycobacterium simianum. Therefore, providing a method with high specificity, high sensitivity, the ability to distinguish common clinical NTMs, and minimal equipment requirements is of great significance, laying the foundation for accurate NTM diagnosis and epidemic control in primary care hospitals. Summary of the Invention

This combination is used to type and identify 13 nontuberculous mycobacteria with high sensitivity and good specificity.

[0008] This study uses pan-genomic analysis based on genomic big data to screen and provide a set of PCR primers and probes designed based on species-specific genes for the rapid detection and typing of 13 common clinical non-tuberculous mycobacteria.

[0030] Unless otherwise specifically defined, all technical and scientific terms used in the present invention are common knowledge to those skilled in the art.
[0031] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the following drawings and examples. The described examples are only a part of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the following examples.
[0032] The following examples are provided to facilitate a better understanding of the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention. The experimental methods in the following examples are conventional methods unless otherwise specified. The experimental materials used in the following examples were purchased from conventional biochemical reagent stores unless otherwise specified.
[0033] In the table: “+” represents positive; “-” represents negative.
[0034] Example 1 The pan-genome refers to the sum of all coding genes within a species, including core genes shared by all strains, dispensable genes, and strain-specific genes. By performing pan-genomic analysis on all NTM species and subspecies for which genome sequences are available, we can identify genes within the dispensable genes that are common to all strains of a particular species—strain-specific core genes. Conserved regions within these genes provide potential sources of typing primers and probes.
[0035] Based on the background of pan-genomics, the present invention studies non-tuberculosis mycobacteria through the following steps: (1) Downloading and selecting mycobacterial genomes The published mycobacterium genomes were downloaded from the Genome database of NCBI, and a total of 10,666 spliced chromosome genomes were obtained. Based on the reference genomes of each species provided by NCBI, the fastANI software was used to confirm the genome of the target species. If the ANI of the downloaded genome and the reference genome is not less than 95%, the strain belongs to the species. Since the ANI of Mycobacterium paraintracellularis and Mycobacterium intracellularis exceeds 95%, and the literature reports that the genomic diversity between Mycobacterium intracellularis and Mycobacterium paraintracellularis remains at the subspecies or gene variant level and has not reached the species level (BMC Microbiol. 2021, 21(1):103), the present invention uses Mycobacterium paraintracellularis as intracellular Mycobacterium. The ANI of Mycobacterium ulcerans and Mycobacterium marinum is also above 95%, but because the two have different clinical symptoms, they can only be divided into two different species. At the same time, reference is made to the existing literature on the corresponding Mycobacterium ulcerans group ( Mycobacterium ulcerans The members of the group were reclassified as Mycobacterium ulcerans and other mycolide-producing mycobacteria (MPM), such as M. pseudoshottsii 、 M. shinshuense 、 M. liflandii and part Marine M. , were all classified as Mycobacterium ulcerans because these strains had highly identical genomes, shared a common ancestor (PLoS Negl Trop Dis. 2010, 4(7):e663, BMC Genomics. 2012, 13:258), and had significantly different gene contents from Mycobacterium marinum strains.
[0036] After the bacterial species were identified, 887 genomes with good assembly results were selected for pan-genomic analysis. These genomes involved Mycobacterium tuberculosis and 155 non-tuberculosis mycobacteria, including Mycobacterium avium (MAV, M. avium ) 85 strains, Mycobacterium intracellulare (MINT, Intracellular M. ) 62 strains, Mycobacterium massoniana (MAR, M. marseillense ) 5 strains, Mycobacterium chelonae (MCH, M. chelonae ) 35 strains, Mycobacterium abscessus (MAB, M. abscess ) 38 strains, Mycobacterium kansasii (MKA, M. kansasii ) 16 strains, Mycobacterium gordonii (MGO, M. gordonae ) 4 strains, Mycobacterium paragordonii (MPGO, M. paragordonae ) 5 strains, Mycobacterium fortuitum (MFO, M. fortuitum ) 26 strains, Mycobacterium marinum (MMA, Marine M. ) 12 strains, Mycobacterium ulcerans (MUL, Ulcerative muscle ) 6 strains, Mycobacterium simianum (MSI, M. simiae ) 3 strains and Mycobacterium toadense (MXE, M. xenopi ) 7 strains.
[0037] (2) Pan-genomic analysis to screen candidate target genes The genomes of the above 887 strains were annotated using Prokka software, and then pan-genomic analysis was performed using Roray software to obtain the core genes of each target strain ( Figure 2 ). Specific core genes of each target bacterial species were screened, and members of equal length were selected as candidate target genes (Table 1).
[0038] Table 1
[0039] Example 2 Multiple sequence alignments of candidate target genes were performed using Mafft software to identify conserved regions across bacterial species within each target gene. Primer and probe design was performed by selecting conserved regions as long as possible. Probes should be between 20 and 30 bp in length, have a GC content of 40% to 60%, have a melting temperature that differs by 5 to 10°C from that of PCR primers, and lack the formation of secondary structures. Primers were designed using Primer software. Details of the primers and probes obtained from the 13 sets of nontuberculous mycobacterial sequence screening are shown in Table 2.
[0040] Table 2
[0041]
[0042] The 5' end of the probe sequence is labeled with the fluorescent group FAM, and the 3' end is labeled with the quencher group BHQ1.
[0043] Example 3 The 10,666 downloaded mycobacterial genomes were blasted against the primers and probes described above, as well as their corresponding reverse complements. Results were screened for 100% sequence identity and length. If a strain had the forward primer, reverse primer, and probe for a particular species, it was considered to belong to that species. The results showed that the primers and probes described above had 100% specificity for identifying the target species. The sensitivity for identifying 10 species, including Mycobacterium avium, Mycobacterium chelonae, Mycobacterium gordonii, Mycobacterium intracellulare, Mycobacterium kansasii, Mycobacterium massa, Mycobacterium paragordonii, Mycobacterium simianum, Mycobacterium ulcerans, and Mycobacterium xenopus, was also 100%. With the exception of Mycobacterium marinum (94.4%), the sensitivity for identifying all other species was above 97%. Detailed results are shown in Table 3.
[0044] Table 3
[0045] Example 4 The PCR detection method used in this example is the TaqMan probe method, which uses TaqMan fluorescent probes for fluorescence detection. The basic principle is: in addition to specific primers, a TaqMan probe fully complementary to the target sequence is added to the PCR amplification system. Its 5' end is labeled with a reporter fluorescent group (FAM) and its 3' end is labeled with a quencher fluorescent group (BHQ). The probe is designed within the amplification regions of the upstream and downstream primers. During the annealing phase, it specifically binds to the complementary region of the template DNA. At this time, the quencher inhibits the reporter group's luminescence through fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). During the extension phase, the 5'→3' exonuclease activity of Taq DNA polymerase hydrolyzes the probe, separating the reporter group from the quencher group and releasing a fluorescent signal. The number of fluorescent molecules cleaved is proportional to the amount of PCR product. Therefore, the amount of PCR product amplification can be determined by measuring the fluorescence intensity in the PCR reaction system.
[0046] The present invention designs a front primer, a back primer and a TaqMan probe (TaqMan probe method qPCR) in the conserved region obtained by the above pan-genome analysis. The distance between the front and back primers is within the range of 50-300 bp. The TaqMan probe is located between the front and back primers. When the amplification system (including dNTP, Taq enzyme, Mg 2+ When the target bacterial species is added to the TaqMan probe (and related buffer, forward primer, backward primer, and TaqMan probe), the amplification reaction is initiated. The 5'-3' exonuclease activity of the Taq enzyme cleaves and degrades the probe, and the system monitors the fluorescent signal. This experiment designs different forward primers, backward primers, and probes according to different bacterial species and subspecies to test the accuracy of the designed system. The composition and specificity principle of the primer probe combination are as follows Figure 3As shown, only when the system (including dNTP, Taq enzyme, Mg 2+ When a nucleic acid template of a target bacterial species that matches the designed bacterial species is added to the assay (and related buffer, forward primer, backward primer, and TaqMan probe), a fluorescent signal and an amplification curve appear, and the detection system is correctly designed and has bacterial species specificity.
[0047] Mycobacterium DNA is amplified by PCR from a sputum sample or cultured bacterial liquid sample of the patient to be examined, wherein the amplification primer sequence is one of the 13 pairs of typing primers. At the same time, the corresponding probe is used and added to the PCR reaction solution.
[0048] In addition to the above primers and probes, the PCR reaction solution also includes 5 μL of 2× Animal Detection U+ProbeqPCR Super PreMix premix, which contains DNA polymerase (Taq enzyme), relevant buffer, Mg 2+ , dNTPs, etc., for the preparation of PCR reaction solution and PCR amplification. The amplification process may include denaturation, annealing, and extension.
[0049] The binding and reaction process between probes and PCR products is as follows: At low temperature, each probe binds to the corresponding PCR product. As the temperature gradually increases, the 5'-3' exonuclease activity of the Taq enzyme cleaves the probe, separating the reporter and quencher fluorophores, resulting in fluorescence. The number of fluorescent molecules cleaved is proportional to the amount of PCR product. Ultimately, the presence of a fluorescent signal determines the NTM species to which the sample belongs.
[0050] Take the cross-detection of 13 strains of Mycobacterium abscessus using primers and probes as an example: (a) Mycobacterial DNA extraction Specimens were pretreated, including sputum liquefaction and colony picking. Mycobacterium DNA was then extracted using the CapitalBioMycobacterium RT-PCR kit (CapitalBio RT-PCR, CapitalBio Technology Inc., Beijing, China). Specific steps were performed according to the kit instructions.
[0051] (b) PCR amplification After preparing the PCR reaction solution, PCR amplification was performed using standard strains of Mycobacterium abscessus, Mycobacterium simianum, and clinical strains of 11 other bacterial species verified by whole genome sequencing to test the detection accuracy and specificity of the target NTM.
[0052] PCR amplification reaction conditions include: Stage 1: 37°C for 2 minutes; Stage 2: 95°C-30s; Stage 3: 95°C for 10 seconds; Stage 4: 60℃-30s; Stages 3 and 4 were repeated for 40 cycles.
[0053] (c) Interpretation of results Observe the fluorescence signal of the FAM channel. When the Ct value is ≤35 and a standard S curve is shown, it is judged as positive; when the Ct value is >35 or no signal is shown, it is judged as negative. When the primers and probes for Mycobacterium abscessus are used to cross-detect 13 bacterial species, only Mycobacterium abscessus shows FAM fluorescence signal, and no signal is shown for other bacterial species ( Figure 4 ).
[0054] Based on the above steps, the sensitivity and specificity of the primers and probes for 13 NTM typing species were evaluated, and the results are shown in Table 4. With the exception of the primers and probes for Mycobacterium chelonae and Mycobacterium ulcerans, which showed cross-reactivity, the primers and probes for the other species all showed excellent sensitivity and specificity. While the primers and probes for Mycobacterium chelonae could detect both MCH and MAB, the primers and probes for MAB had excellent specificity and only detected MAB, allowing MCH to be identified by exclusion. Similarly, the primers and probes for MUL could detect both MUL and MMA, but the primers and probes for Mycobacterium marinum only detected MMA, allowing MUL to be identified by exclusion.
[0055] Table 4
[0056] Comparative Example 1 The present invention also conducted comparative experiments on 20 common bacterial species in addition to the 13 NTMs. The specific detection steps were the same as in Example 4. All primers and probes tested negative for other NTMs, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, BCG, and common pneumonia-causing pathogens. This demonstrates that the primer and probe combination provided by the present invention for typing nontuberculous mycobacteria has good sensitivity and specificity for the target bacterial species.
