The invention belongs to the technical field of
DNA modification site detection, and particularly discloses a sequencing method for identifying a zooxanthellae
genome 5-
hydroxymethyl uracil based on double-
enzyme cascade. The method comprises the following steps: specifically recognizing and
cutting 5-
hydroxymethyl uracil through human single-chain selective single-function
uracil glycosylase to generate a base removal site, efficiently
cutting an AP site by combining with
cutting mismatched
nuclease optimized by a catalytic structural domain, and directionally generating a 200-300bp
DNA fragment containing an
adhesive tail end; and analyzing the cleavage site by using next-generation sequencing to realize single-base resolution positioning. According to the method, cross interference and
DNA damage of a traditional chemical oxidation method to 5hmC / 5fC are avoided through a double-
enzyme cascade reaction, and single-base resolution positioning can be achieved; meanwhile, according to the method, the experimental process is simplified, 5hmU recognition, AP site generation and cutting are integrated into one-step reaction, and the
library building period is shortened. Accurate positioning and quantitative analysis of the single
base level of 5hmU are realized in a zooxanthellae
genome, and epigenetic regulation and
environmental stress response of the zooxanthellae are disclosed.
