Description
本发明涉及核酸分离和富集技术领域,具体涉及一种分离和/或富集宿主源核酸和病原核酸的方法和试剂及其制备方法。
近几年,DNA测序技术在测序速度、通量以及成本上取得了重大突破。因此,基因测序技术已经广泛应用于医疗健康检测领域,包括胚胎植入筛查、产前检查、癌症筛查、感染病的检验与防控等。其中,感染病原的存在以及不断的演变进一步使利用二代测序来检测感染疾病成为一个非常有价值并逐渐被越来越多的研究者关注的领域。
目前,利用基因测序及分析技术已经可以实现针对病原微生物种群中各组分的种属,丰度以及功能特性的检测,进而研究人与病原微生物之间的关联。但是,这些研究一直受限于样本的复杂组分,包括细菌、真菌、病毒、原生生物以及过量的宿主人源核酸。结合PCR和测序技术的扩增子测序(例如16S核糖体RNA测序)可以实现在复杂样本中对病原核酸进行快速、高分辨的检测。这种扩增子测序可以在测序覆盖度以及深度方面提供极大优势,但是扩增子测序无法实现对整个流行病学的研究以及致病性的鉴定。
针对扩增子测序的局限性,Meta测序已经被广泛应用到病原病毒以及病原微生物的检测中,用以发现新的致病体以及对病原体进行种系基因分型。结合相应的快速检测技术,Meta测序也可以更好地揭示致病体的传播途径,帮助疾病控制,预防传染病爆发等。利用血液为样本进行Meta测序来鉴定血液中的病原核酸一直是Meta测序中的主流研究方向。但是,由于血液中存在过量的人源核酸,其中只有约1%的病原核酸,利用传统的测序方法很难检测到存在于过量人源核酸中的病原核酸,更加难以针对相应的情况给予例如耐药性和感染性等诊断指导。同时,利用传统方法检测低频的病原核酸需要很高的测序深度,这无疑也会增加测序成本。因此,针对血液Meta测序前的样本处理方法的选择一直是Meta测序技术的关键点之一。
传统的富集病原核酸的方法主要分为两类。第一类是根据人源和病原核酸的不同甲基化位点来进行核酸分离从而达到富集病原核酸的目的,但是基于甲基化状态的分离原理限制了可富集的病原核酸的种类。第二类富集方法是基于核糖核酸酶的人源核酸消耗法。这种方法可以适用于病毒、真菌以及寄生虫等病原核酸的富集。但是由于细菌和其宿主细胞的转录本的组成及含量的不一致性,利用人源核酸消耗法富集细菌内核酸无法用以研究细菌及其宿主细胞的相互作用机理。
已经商品化的富集病原核酸的方法主要分为以下几类。首先是美国纽英伦生物技术公司(New England Biolabs)推出的NEB下一代微生物DNA浓缩试剂盒(NEBNext Microbiome DNA Enrichment kit)。这种试剂盒是根据人源核酸含有更多的甲基化位点,利用人源和病原核酸甲基化位点的不同来设计的。利用甲基化位点结合蛋白MBD2与人免疫球蛋白制备的融合蛋白可特异性去除样本中的人源核酸。另一类试剂盒的原理是利用去除人源核酸的方法实 现病原核酸的富集。这类商业化的试剂盒包括Molzym公司推出的MolYsis,Qiagen公司推出的QIAamp DNA微生物组试剂盒(QIAamp DNA Microbiome Kit),以及赛默飞世尔科技公司(Thermo Fisher Scientific)推出的微生物组富集试剂盒(MICROBEnrich Kit)。MolYsis和QIAamp DNA微生物组试剂盒(QIAamp DNA Microbiome Kit)主要用于去除人源DNA,其主要原理是选择性裂解人源细胞并利用DNA酶(DNase)去除人源DNA。微生物组富集试剂盒(MICROBEnrich Kit)主要用于去除人源RNA,其主要原理分为两类。第一类是选择性裂解人源细胞,利用离心法分离细菌等微生物和人源RNA;第二类是对人源和病原细胞同时裂解,再利用带有寡核苷酸链的磁珠吸附人源RNA中的18S、28S rRNAs和mRNA达到去除人源RNA的目的。近几年,另一些未商品化的方法也在研究过程中逐渐被开发出来。2016年,MR Hasan等人利用低浓度的非离子型表面活性剂皂素选择性地裂解人源细胞并利用Turbo DNA酶(Turbo DNase)除去人源DNA。
现有技术的缺点包括:
(1)NEB下一代微生物DNA浓缩试剂盒(NEBNext Microbiome DNA Enrichment kit)的分离原理,是基于人源和病原甲基化位点的差异,所以此方法无法实现未知病原的富集。
(2)利用先裂解人源细胞来去除人源核酸的方案例如MolYsis、QIAamp DNA微生物组试剂盒(QIAamp DNA Microbiome Kit)和微生物组富集试剂盒(MICROBEnrich Kit)在用DNase或者RNase去除人源核酸的过程会丢失存在于样本中的游离病原DNA或者RNA。此外,样本在离心处理等过程中会出现丢失的问题。同时,MolYsis对于不同样本类型表现差异比较大。对于脑脊液样本的处理,在大幅降低人源核酸的同时也会大幅降低病原核酸。对于鼻咽呼吸道物质的样本处理,去除人源DNA效果不明显,去除人源RNA的同时也损失了大量的病原RNA。
(3)利用同时裂解人源和病原细胞并利用带有寡核苷酸链的磁珠吸附人源RNA中的18S、28S rRNAs和mRNA达到去除人源RNA的方案中,由于分离主要是基于人源核糖体RNA和mRNA的特异性,所以此方案只应用于富集病原RNA。
(4)利用低浓度的非离子型表面活性剂皂素方案中需要利用改造后的DNase,可能会使工艺更复杂或者成本升高。另外,此方案只应用到了模拟样本上,还未实现在真实样本的处理。

针对目前市场上出现的病原核酸富集方案的种种不足,本发明设计了多种不同方案,利用修饰宿主源基因组序列或者病原核酸保守区序列的芯片或磁珠来实现宿主源和病原核酸的分离以达到富集病原核酸的目的。利用本发明的方案进行病原核酸的富集均可实现如下技术效果:

本发明实施例提供一种分离和/或富集宿主源核酸和病原核酸的方法。本发明中,所谓“分离”是指将宿主源核酸和病原核酸在一定程度上分开,可以是全部(例如100%)分开,也可以是部分(例如10%至90%等不等比例)分开。所谓“富集”是指提高宿主源核酸和病原核酸中的至少一种的绝对量或相对量,例如绝对浓度或相对浓度等。
本发明中,所谓“宿主源核酸”是指任何被病原寄生或感染的宿主细胞、宿主组织或宿主个体等各种来源的核酸,包括但不限于动物源核酸和植物源核酸等,尤其是动物源核酸,特别是哺乳动物来源的核酸,最典型的是人源核酸。这种核酸可以是DNA或RNA等。
本发明中,所谓“病原核酸”是指寄生或感染任何宿主细胞、宿主组织或宿主个体等的病原微生物,包括但不限于细菌、真菌等。
本发明一种实施例中提供一种分离和/或富集宿主源核酸和病原核酸的方法,该方法包括如下步骤:将固定在固相载体上的宿主源探针与含有宿主源核酸和病原核酸的液体样品混合孵育,使宿主源探针与宿主源核酸杂交;进行固液分离得到结合在固相载体上的宿主源核酸和保留在液体样品中的病原核酸。
本发明实施例中,宿主源探针是针对宿主源核酸与其杂交的探针,典型的是,与人源核酸杂交的人源探针。在优选实施例中,本发明实施例中的人源探针是以人基因组DNA为原料制成的DNA纳米球、片段化基因组序列扩增产物或片段化基因组序列。片段化基因组序 列扩增产物和片段化基因组序列上带有生物素标记,固相载体上带有链霉亲和素标记。
本发明实施例中,宿主源探针具有一定程度的通用特性,即针对同一种宿主来源的核酸,不同宿主个体(例如,不同人)的宿主源核酸(例如,人源核酸)可以使用预先制备好的同一种宿主源探针(例如,人源探针)杂交。预先制备好的宿主源探针可以在合适的条件下保存一定时间,例如,可以在4℃下保存1个月,并在该期限内使用。
本发明实施例中,宿主源探针,例如人源探针可以使用来源于人的核酸,如人基因组DNA,通过适当的方法制备得到。例如,将人基因组DNA通过物理打断或酶打断得到片段化基因组DNA,再对片段化进行特定标记(例如生物素标记)以将其固定到固相载体表面,或者对片段化基因组DNA进行环化和滚环扩增得到DNA纳米球(DNB)加载到固相载体(例如芯片)表面实现探针固定。
如图1所示,在采用转座酶打断基因组DNA的情况下,转座酶与转座子(A转座子和B转座子)形成转座复合体,图1(1)中示出了含有A转座子和B转座子两种转座子的双转座子转座复合体。在其他实施方案中,转座复合体可以是仅含有一个转座子(A转座子或B转座子)的单转座子转座复合体。
在需要将片段化基因组DNA标记上生物素标记等标记的情况下,可以有多种方式实现。其中一种方式是使用图1(2)中生物素标记的转座复合体打断基因组DNA,图中生物素标记的A转座子和生物素标记的B转座子与转座酶一起形成转座复合体,在打断基因组DNA的同时在片段化的基因组DNA两端添加带有生物素标记的转座子序列,通过与固相载体上的链霉亲和素结合实现探针固定。
本发明实施例中,以人源核酸作为宿主源核酸、人源探针作为宿主源探针,提供如下三种分离和/或富集宿主源核酸和病原核酸的方法。
方法一:基于人源探针(DNA纳米球)来富集病原核酸的方法,其原理及特点如下:
利用固定在硅基芯片上的DNA纳米球为人源探针来杂交吸附待测样本中的人源核酸并通过固液分离来实现样本中病原核酸的富集。其中,固定在硅基芯片上的DNA纳米球人源探针的制备方法如图2所示:
首先,以人基因组DNA为原料,利用转座酶打断并加入接头的方式得到两端带有特定接头的片段化的人基因组DNA的产物。通过切口平移以及PCR扩增可获得大量扩增产物。之后,通过变性双链产物并加入与接头两端匹配的锚定寡核苷酸链和DNA连接酶可将扩增后的人基因组片段制备成单链环。在单链环接头区域杂交延伸引物并加入phi29聚合酶通过滚环扩增的方式即可得到单链人基因组片段线性扩增的产物。这些得到的长单链通过分子内氢键即可形成DNA纳米球。在DNA纳米球中加入DNA纳米球加载缓冲液,混匀后放入加载***中,室温孵育后即可将制备的DNA纳米球加载到末端氨基修饰的硅基底的芯片上。
将待处理样本加载到探针芯片上,使芯片上的人源探针与样本中的人源核酸杂交,通过分离固相芯片和液相待处理样本即可实现样本中病原核酸的富集。
上述方法一的优势包括:
(1)以人基因组DNA为原料,片段化后扩增制备探针用来捕获样本中的人源核酸,不需要利用特异性的甲基化位点或者保守区来实现杂交分离。
(2)此方案应用于分离人源核酸的捕获探针来源于人源基因组DNA,可同时杂交样本中的人源DNA及RNA片段,实现病原DNA和RNA的同时富集。
(3)探针存在的形式为DNA纳米球,存在大约数百拷贝(例如,300拷贝以上,优选500拷贝)的片段化人基因组DNA产物的拷贝数,增加杂交捕获样本中人源核酸的效率。
方法二:基于人源探针(片段化基因组序列扩增产物)来富集病原核酸的方法,其原理及特点如下:
利用固定在磁珠上的片段化人基因组序列的扩增产物作为人源探针来杂交吸附待测样本中的人源核酸并通过固液分离来实现样本中病原核酸的富集。其中,固定在磁珠上的片段化人基因组序列的扩增产物的人源探针的制备方法如图3所示:
首先,以人基因组DNA为原料,利用转座酶打断并加入接头的方式得到两端带有特定接头的片段化的人基因组DNA的产物。通过切口平移,并且利用带有生物素标记的引物进行PCR扩增即可获得大量带有生物素标记的片段化人基因组序列的扩增产物。将带有链霉亲和素标记的磁珠加入到带有生物素标记的片段化人基因组序列的扩增产物溶液中搅拌并室温孵育,即可得到固定在磁珠上的带有片段化人基因组序列的扩增产物的人源探针。
将固定了人源探针的磁珠加入到待处理的样本中,使磁珠上的人源探针与样本中的人源核酸杂交,通过分离固相磁珠和液相待处理样本即可实现样本中病原核酸的富集。
上述方法二的优势包括:
(1)以人基因组DNA为原料,片段化后扩增制备探针用来捕获样本中的人源核酸,不需要利用特异性的甲基化位点或者保守区来实现杂交分离。
(2)此方案应用于分离人源核酸的捕获探针来源于人源基因组DNA,可同时杂交样本中的人源DNA及RNA片段,实现病原DNA和RNA的同时富集。
(3)利用PCR方法一步实现官能基团(生物素)的标记和人源探针的扩增,可实现人源探针的固定以及进一步增加样本中人源核酸的捕获效率。
方法三:基于人源探针(片段化基因组序列)来富集病原核酸的方法,其原理及特点如下:
利用固定在磁珠上的片段化人基因组序列的产物作为人源探针来杂交吸附待测样本中的人源核酸并通过固液分离来实现样本中病原核酸的富集。其中,固定在磁珠上的片段化人基因组序列的产物的人源探针的制备方法如图4所示:
首先,以人基因组DNA为原料,利用转座酶打断并加入生物素标记的接头的方式得到两端带有特定接头的片段化的人基因组DNA的产物。通过切口平移及延伸即可得到带有生物素标记的片段化的人基因组DNA的产物。将带有链霉亲和素标记的磁珠加入到带有生物素标记的片段化人基因组序列的产物溶液中搅拌并室温孵育,即可得到固定在磁珠上的带有片段化人基因组序列产物的人源探针。
将固定了人源探针的磁珠加入到待处理的样本中,使磁珠上的人源探针与样本中的人源核酸杂交,通过分离固相磁珠和液相待处理样本即可实现样本中病原核酸的富集。
上述方法三的优势包括:
(1)以人基因组DNA为原料,片段化产物制备探针用来捕获样本中的人源核酸,不需 要利用特异性的甲基化位点或者保守区来实现杂交分离。
(2)此方案应用于分离人源核酸的捕获探针来源于人源基因组DNA,可同时杂交样本中的人源DNA及RNA片段,实现病原DNA和RNA的同时富集。
(3)此方案利用转座酶一步打断人基因组DNA并加接头的方式得到人源探针,制备方案简单,步骤较少,所以制备人源探针的效率较高,成本较低。
本发明一种实施例中提供一种分离和/或富集宿主源核酸和病原核酸的方法,该方法包括如下步骤:
将宿主源探针、固定在固相载体上的病原探针与含有宿主源核酸和病原核酸的液体样品混合孵育,使宿主源探针与宿主源核酸杂交、病原探针与病原核酸杂交;进行固液分离得到结合在固相载体上的病原核酸和保留在液体样品中的宿主源核酸。
本发明实施例中,宿主源探针,例如人源探针可以使用来源于人的核酸,如人基因组DNA,通过适当的方法制备得到。本实施例中,宿主源探针作为液相探针与样本中的宿主源核酸结合;而病原探针固定在固相载体上,与样本中的病原核酸结合,再通过固液分离实现宿主源核酸和病原核酸的分离。
本发明实施例中,以人源核酸作为宿主源核酸、人源探针作为宿主源探针,提供如下第四种分离和/或富集宿主源核酸和病原核酸的方法。
方法四:基于人源探针(DNA纳米球)以及病原探针(数位编码磁珠)来富集病原核酸的方法,其原理及特点如下:
利用存在于液相的基于人基因组制备的DNA纳米球为人源探针杂交吸附待测样本中的人源核酸,同时利用固定在数位磁珠上的病原基因组序列的保守区作为病原探针来杂交捕获待测样本中的病原核酸并通过固液分离来实现样本中病原核酸的富集。其中,基于人基因组制备的DNA纳米球的人源探针和固定在数位磁珠上的带有病原基因组序列保守区的病原探针的制备方法如图5所示:
首先,以人基因组DNA为原料,利用转座酶打断并加入接头的方式得到两端带有特定接头的片段化的人基因组DNA的产物。通过切口平移以及PCR扩增可获得大量扩增产物。之后,通过变性双链产物并加入与接头两端匹配的锚定寡核苷酸链和DNA连接酶可将扩增后的人基因组片段制备成单链环。在单链环接头区域杂交延伸引物并加入phi29聚合酶通过滚环扩增的方式即可得到单链人基因组片段线性扩增的产物。这些得到的长单链通过分子内氢键即可形成DNA纳米球,即用于杂交去除样本中人源核酸的人源探针。
带有病原基因组序列保守区的病原探针的制备方法为,利用带有生物素标记的病原核酸保守区序列与带有链霉亲和素标记的数位磁珠混合并室温孵育,即可得到用于捕获待测样本中病原核酸的病原探针。
将制备好的DNA纳米球人源探针和固定了病原探针的数位磁珠加入到待处理的样本中,使待测样本中的人源核酸杂交捕获到液相的DNA纳米球人源探针上,待测样本中的病原核酸杂交捕获到固定了病原探针的数位磁珠上,通过分离固相数位磁珠和液相待处理样本即可实现样本中病原核酸的富集。
上述方法三的优势包括:
(1)以人基因组DNA为原料,片段化后扩增制备人源探针用来捕获样本中的人源核酸,不需要利用特异性的甲基化位点或者保守区来实现杂交分离。
(2)此方案应用于分离人源核酸的捕获探针来源于人源基因组DNA,可同时杂交样本中的人源DNA及RNA片段,实现病原DNA和RNA的同时富集。
(3)人源探针存在的形式为DNA纳米球,存在大约数百拷贝(例如,300拷贝以上,优选500拷贝)的片段化人基因组DNA产物的拷贝数,增加杂交捕获样本中人源核酸的效率。
(4)由于数位磁珠上存在二维码标记,可通过在不同标记的磁珠上修饰不同的病原核酸保守区实现不同种类的病原核酸富集在不同标记种类的数位磁珠上,从而实现多种类分别富集。
(5)此方案利用了双向选择法,即人源探针和病原探针同时杂交捕获的方案进行富集,可以进一步增加病原富集的特异性和效率。
