Description

Microcurrent detection circuit and gene sequencing device
Technical Field
The disclosure belongs to the technical field of electronic circuits, and particularly relates to a microcurrent detection circuit and a gene sequencing device, which can be used for detecting biological microcurrent signals of gene sequencing and pA-level microcurrents in other application fields.
Background
The nanopore sequencing method adopts an electrophoresis technology, and sequencing is realized by driving single molecules to pass through the nanopores one by means of electrophoresis. The nanopores (nanopore) are channels of about 1-10 nanometers in diameter, including solid state nanopores and biological nanopores. Single-stranded DNA (or RNA) molecules spontaneously pass through the nanopore in an electric field due to their charged nature, and cause a change in the nanopore resistance during the pass, resulting in a so-called blocking current. Four different bases A, T (U), C, and G of DNA (RNA) have identifiable differences in blocking effects on current generation when they traverse the nanopore due to differences in their own chemical structures, producing respective corresponding characteristic blocking currents. The type of the corresponding base can be determined by accurately detecting the characteristic blocking current, thereby determining the nucleic acid sequence.
In the existing nanopore sequencing mode, taking a sequencing technology of Genia Technologies company as an example, a modified nucleotide analogue is adopted to sequence while synthesizing nucleic acid, the modified nucleotide analogue comprises nucleotides and linkers used for synthesis, different linkers can generate characteristic blocking current more effectively than nucleic acid, and the detection of the linkers can effectively improve the base recognition degree, but the detection of the linkers only can hardly avoid the situation that the blocking current of the linkers is read, but the nucleotides do not really participate in the synthesis reaction, so that the error (insertion error) of redundant reading of signals is caused. Therefore, there is a need for improvements in existing nanopore sequencing technologies that can detect not only the linker, but also the nucleotide itself, to increase sequencing accuracy and rapid response capability. This requires a higher sampling frequency and a stricter noise control means.

Detailed Description
For the purposes of making the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. It will be apparent that the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Based on the embodiments in this disclosure, all other embodiments that a person of ordinary skill in the art would obtain without making any inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
In this disclosure, it should be understood that terms such as "comprises" or "comprising," etc., are intended to indicate the presence of features, numbers, steps, acts, components, portions, or combinations thereof disclosed in this specification, and are not intended to exclude the possibility that one or more other features, numbers, steps, acts, components, portions, or combinations thereof are present or added.
In a nanopore sequencing device, a voltage applied to two ends of a test cavity is used for driving a nucleotide molecule and a connector for synthesis to pass through a nanopore, and the type of the nucleotide molecule passing through the nanopore is detected by detecting a micro-current characteristic signal output by the nanopore, so that sequencing is realized.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a structure and an electrical model of a nanopore test chamber 101 employed in an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 1, the test chamber 101 comprises a first compartment and a second compartment separated by a phospholipid bilayer membrane 105, and an electrode 103 connected to the first compartment and an electrode 102 connected to the second compartment. The phospholipid bilayer membrane 105 has a nanopore 104 thereon, and the nucleotide molecule 106 with the linker 107 attached is located in the first compartment and passes through the nanopore 104 under the application of a voltage across the electrodes 102 and 103. In fig. 1, nanopore equivalent capacitance 108 and nanopore equivalent resistance 109 may be employed to simulate the electrical characteristics of nanopore 104, and for ease of illustration, the disclosed embodiments simplify test cavity 102 to nanopore equivalent circuit model 113.
FIG. 2 is a schematic circuit diagram of a detection circuit in a nanopore sequencing device that can be implemented. As shown in fig. 2, the detection circuit includes a nanopore voltage applying unit, an integrating circuit unit, and an output circuit unit. Wherein the nanopore voltage applying unit is configured to apply a voltage to the common electrode and the detection electrode 208 of the nanopore test chamber 207, thereby driving the single nucleotide molecule through the nanopore by means of a voltage difference between the common electrode and the detection electrode 208 of the nanopore test chamber 207. In one embodiment, the nanopore voltage applying unit includes a clamping tube 201.
The integrating circuit unit is used for integrating and amplifying the micro-current signal output by the detection electrode 208 of the nanopore test cavity 207 and converting the micro-current signal into an integrated voltage signal. In one embodiment, the integrating circuit unit includes an integrating capacitor 203 and an integrating reset switch 202.
The output circuit unit receives the integrated voltage signal converted by the integrating circuit unit and outputs the integrated voltage signal. In one embodiment, the output circuit unit includes a source follower 204 and a selection switch 205 (implemented with selection tube 205 in fig. 2).
In this example of the detection circuit, a reference voltage VCMD 210 is applied to a common electrode (corresponding to the electrode 112 in fig. 1) of the nanopore test cavity 207, a source of the clamp 201 is connected to a detection electrode 208 (corresponding to the electrode 110 in fig. 1) of the nanopore test cavity 207, and a drain of the clamp 201 is connected to one end of the integrating capacitor 203. The gate of the clamping tube 201 inputs a clamping voltage VP 209, and the clamping voltage VP is a fixed voltage, so that the input voltage of the detection electrode 208 of the nanopore test cavity is ensured to be a certain fixed value. When a forward voltage is applied to the reference voltage VCMD, for example, about 100mV to 200mV higher than the voltage on the detection electrode 208, the nucleotide molecules in the nanopore test cavity pass through the nanopore under the action of the electric field, at this time, a characteristic current appears in the nanopore, the characteristic current passes through the clamping tube 201 and is input to the integrating capacitor 203, the integrating capacitor 203 performs integration amplification on the characteristic current for a certain period of time, so as to generate an integrated voltage signal 211, and the integrated voltage signal 211 is output to the common signal line 213 through the source follower 204 and the selection switch 205, and then is output to the analog-to-digital converter ADC 206 through the common signal line 213 for analog-to-digital conversion. Wherein the reset switch 202 periodically clears the charge on the integrating capacitor 203 under control of the reset signal Rst.
Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of an operation waveform of the detection circuit. As shown in fig. 3, 301 is a voltage waveform applied by the reference voltage VCMD; 302 is the waveform of the periodic reset signal of the integrating capacitor and 303 is the waveform of the integrated voltage across the integrating capacitor. When the reference voltage applies a forward voltage, the integrated voltage is accumulated on the integrating capacitor and a periodic saw tooth signal is generated according to the reset signal period.
The operation of the detection circuit shown in fig. 2 is briefly described below.
First, when the clamp 201 operates in a subthreshold state, the clamp voltage VP thereof changes with the detected current.
The relation between the current and the voltage of the MOS tube in the subthreshold state is as follows:
Where n is a process related constant, which can take on a value of 1.5 empirically; VT is thermal voltage, and 26mV is taken at normal temperature; ids0 is a MOS transistor current parameter and is related to a process; vth is the threshold voltage of the MOS transistor; ids is the current value flowing through the MOS tube, and Vgs is the voltage value of the MOS tube corresponding to the current value.
For different currents, e.g., ids1 and Ids2, corresponding to different Vgs1 and Vgs2, respectively, the voltage difference Δvgs between the two is:
referring to FIG. 1, if the nanopore equivalent capacitance 108 is 2pF and the nanopore equivalent resistance 109 is in the range of 250MΩ -20 GΩ, a current of 5 pA-800 pA will be generated when a voltage of 200mV is applied across the nanopore, temporarily irrespective of the influence of the solution resistance 111.
As described above, when the current range to be detected by the detection circuit is in the range of 5pA to 800pA and Ids1 and Ids2 are respectively maximized and minimized, the change in Δvgs can be estimated as follows:
as described above, for the detection circuit shown in FIG. 2, there will be a maximum of about 200mV change in the detection electrode 208 during the detection process. Through simplified calculation, the final stabilization time of the structure has the following relation:
Where n is a process related constant, which can take on a value of 1.5 empirically; VT is thermal voltage, and 26mV is taken at normal temperature; c is the nanopore equivalent capacitance, referring to nanopore equivalent capacitance 108 in fig. 1; delta Vgs is the voltage change of the detection electrode caused before and after the current mutation of the nano holes; i0 is the initial current value flowing through the clamping tube, namely the current value before the current of the nano-hole suddenly changes; i1 is the final current value flowing through the clamp, here the current value after the nanopore current abrupt change.
When the detection circuit is in an unstable state, particularly for rapid current change in the detection process, taking the example that the nucleotide molecules pass through the nanopore, the residence time of the nucleotide molecules in the nanopore is shortest by about 100us, so that the rapid current change, the detection circuit shown in fig. 2 cannot ensure correct identification. In addition, different detection currents can cause different changes of voltage values Vgs of the clamping tube, and finally the voltage values are reflected at two ends of the nanopore, so that detection errors are caused.
Aiming at the defects of the detection circuit, the present disclosure provides an improved micro-current detection circuit, which can rapidly and accurately judge the type of nucleotide molecules passing through a nanopore and complete a sequencing function.
Fig. 4 is a circuit schematic of a micro-current detection circuit according to a first embodiment of the disclosure. As shown in fig. 4, the micro-current detection circuit of the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a nanopore voltage applying unit, an integrating circuit unit, an output circuit unit, and a compensation current input unit.
The nanopore voltage applying unit is used for applying voltages to the common electrode and the detection electrode 408 of the nanopore test cavity 407, so that a single nucleotide molecule is driven to pass through the nanopore by means of the voltage difference between the common electrode and the detection electrode 208 of the nanopore test cavity 407, and unidirectional microcurrent signal detection is realized.
The integrating circuit unit is used for integrating and amplifying the micro-current signal output by the detection electrode 408 of the nanopore test cavity 407, and converting the micro-current signal into an integrated voltage signal.
The output circuit unit is used for receiving the integrated voltage signal converted by the integration circuit unit and outputting the integrated voltage signal.
The compensation current input unit is configured to apply a compensation current to the detection electrode 408 of the nanopore test cavity 407, and is configured to reduce a voltage change caused by a micro-current signal output by the detection electrode 408, thereby reducing a dependence of a voltage of the detection electrode on a detection current, reducing a circuit stabilization time, and improving a response speed.
In one embodiment, the nanopore voltage applying unit includes a clamping tube 401, a first path end of the clamping tube 401 is connected to the detecting electrode 408, a second path end of the clamping tube is connected to the integrating circuit unit, a control end of the clamping tube inputs a clamping voltage VP 409, and the clamping voltage VP acts to make the voltage of the detecting electrode 408 be a fixed value. In one embodiment, the first path end may be a source electrode of the MOS transistor, the second path end may be a drain electrode of the MOS transistor, and the control end is a gate electrode of the MOS transistor.
In one embodiment, the integrating circuit unit includes an integrating capacitor 403 and an integrating reset switch 402 (illustratively implemented as reset tube 402 in fig. 4). The first end of the integrating capacitor 403 is connected to the second end of the clamping tube 401, and the second end is grounded to the ground potential, so as to integrate and amplify the microcurrent signal of the detection electrode. The first path terminal of the integral reset switch 402 is connected to the first terminal of the integral capacitor 403, and the second path terminal of the integral reset switch 402 is connected to the reset voltage Vpre, so as to reset the voltage of the integral capacitor 403 periodically under the action of the reset signal Rst.
In one embodiment, the compensation current input unit includes a current source 414. Wherein the negative terminal of the current source 414 is connected to the power supply VDD and the positive terminal is connected to the detection electrode 408 of the nanopore test cavity 407. The compensation current input unit supplies compensation current to the clamping tube 401 through the current source 414, and reduces the voltage variation of the detection electrode 408 along with the micro-current signal.
In one embodiment, the output circuit unit includes a source follower 404 and a selection switch 405 (illustratively implemented with a selection tube 405 in fig. 4). The input end of the source follower 404 is connected to the first end of the integrating capacitor 403, the output end is connected in series to the first end of the selection switch 405, and the second end of the selection switch 405 is used for outputting the integrated voltage signal 411. In one embodiment, a second terminal of the selection switch 405 may be connected to a common signal line 413, the integrated voltage signal 411 may be output to the common signal line 413, and the common signal line 413 may be connected to the analog-to-digital converter 406, further converting the integrated voltage signal 411 into a digital signal.
In this embodiment, as shown in the above formula (3), the settling time Tset of the detection circuit is positively correlated with Δvgs and I1/I0 and inversely correlated with I1, so that lowering Δvgs and raising I1 will effectively reduce the settling time.
The detection electrodes 408 are connected in parallel with the compensation current 414, and the introduced compensation current 414 can reduce the voltage variation caused by the detection current (micro-current signal) output by the detection electrodes, that is, the above-mentioned Δvgs. As an example, when the compensation current is 200pA, the detection current is 5pA to 800pA, the detection range is 205pA to 1000pA after the compensation current is added, and the voltage difference Δvgs' =59 4mV caused by the detection current is significantly reduced. At the same time, the compensation current also flows through the clamping tube 401, thereby raising the current of the clamping tube 401, i.e., I1 described above. Therefore, the compensation current 414 can effectively reduce the settling time of the detection circuit, so as to realize the detection of the rapidly-changing nanopore micro-current signal.
Fig. 5A and 5B show waveforms of response of the conventional detection circuit shown in fig. 2 and the detection circuit according to the first embodiment shown in fig. 4 to different nanopore currents, respectively.
As shown in fig. 5A, when a nanopore has a nucleotide molecule passing through, the change in resistance of the nanopore may be simulated by using curve 501A, where 1gΩ indicates that the nanopore is open, abrupt change to 20gΩ indicates that the nucleotide molecule enters the nanopore, the duration may vary from 100us to 10ms, and then abrupt change again to 5gΩ indicates that the nucleotide molecule linker is within the nanopore. The curve 502A shows an integrating capacitance reset signal, which periodically resets the integrating capacitance. Curve 503A shows the integrated voltage with the addition of the compensation current, i.e., integrated voltage 411 in the structure of fig. 4; curve 504A represents the integrated voltage of a conventional structure, i.e., integrated voltage 211 of fig. 2. Comparing the curves 503A and 504A in FIG. 5A, the compensation current is added to have a shorter stabilization time, which can distinguish the state of the nucleotide molecule entering the nanopore.
Fig. 5B shows a case where no nucleotide molecule enters the nanopore, where 1gΩ indicates that the nanopore is in an open state, abrupt change to 5gΩ indicates that only a linker enters the nanopore, corresponding curve 503B indicates the integrated voltage with the addition of compensation current, curve 504B indicates the integrated voltage of the conventional structure, and no nucleotide molecule is detected to pass through the nanopore.
Curves 504A and 504B in fig. 5A and 5B represent integrated voltage signals of a conventional detection circuit, which correspond to the case that a nucleotide molecule enters a nanopore and no nucleotide molecule enters the nanopore, respectively, and the integrated voltage signals of curves 504A and 504B are similar, it can be seen that the conventional detection circuit structure cannot effectively identify the process of the nucleotide molecule passing through the nanopore, particularly when the nucleotide molecule passes through rapidly; and comparing the curves 503A and 503B, when the compensation current is increased, the detection circuit can respond to the rapid detection current change and convert the rapid detection current change into a voltage signal, and when the nucleotide molecules enter the nanopore, the detection circuit has a lower voltage signal, and as shown in the curve 503A, whether the nucleotide molecules pass through the nanopore can be distinguished according to the voltage signal.
