近交系小鼠双色荧光正相杂交芯片技术体系的建立和优化

目的探讨采用单核苷酸多态性（SNP）检测方法-双色荧光正相杂交芯片技术对近交系小鼠遗传质量监测及相关影响因素。方法运用基于芯片的双色荧光正相杂交检测SNP技术,进行芯片杂交动力学研究,考察信号值（Cy3,Cy5）和ratio值（Cy5/Cy3）与PCR产物点样浓度、PCR产物长度和荧光标记探针长度之间的关系,研究PCR产物点样浓度、PCR产物长度和荧光标记探针长度对SNP分型的影响。结果采用正反标记实验后,Ratio值随着PCR产物点样浓度的增加呈稳定趋势;PCR双链产物长度对信号值影响比较大,点样时其长度不宜太长,最好不超过450 bp;随荧光标记探针长度的增加,基因分型能力明显下降,长度为15 bp最佳,长度超过20 bp时,已基本没有区分能力。结论PCR产物点样浓度、PCR产物长度和荧光标记探针长度是双色荧光正相杂交SNP分型系统的重要影响因素,采取适当的PCR产物点样浓度、PCR产物长度和荧光标记探针长度,并采用正反标记实验,可以取得稳定、准确的基因分型效果。为进一步进行近交系小鼠遗传质量监测的研究奠定基础。

Applications of dual-color fluorescence cross-correlation spectroscopy in antibody binding studies

Two-photon dual-color fluorescence cross-correlation spectroscopy (DC-FCCS) was applied to study the binding interactions of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and protein antigens. We measured the binding constant of the interaction of a 32-amino acid brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) with a mAbs and demonstrated the utility of DC-FCCS in studies of antibody sandwiches, trimolecular formations, where two different antibodies bind the same antigen simultaneously. We also show the use of DC-FCCS for monitoring competitive displacement of the labeled antibody in antibody-antigen complexes and subsequent determination of the pertinent dissociation rate (off-rate). The off-rate measurements were performed for two mAbs toward tissue inhibitor 1 of metalloproteinases (TIMP-1). From a methodological perspective, selection of the best labeling protocols and careful optimization of the FCCS instrumentation are essential to achieve the highest cross-correlation signal. When working in vitro, it is practical to generate a complete binding curve using the normalized cross-correlation signal and then fit the experimental points to a binding model. DC-FCCS offers the sensitivity and all other advantages of a solution phase fluorescence-based technique. For systems containing proteins of a similar size that interact without substantial changes in the fluorescence intensity, DC-FCCS serves as a preferred means of measuring solution phase binding constants.

Three-stage refolding/unfolding of the dual-color beta-subunit in R-phycocyanin from Polysiphonia urceolata

The conformational changes during refolding and unfolding of the dual-color beta-subunit in R-phycocyanin (R-PC) were monitored by the spectra, fluorescence anisotropy, and FRET. It was observed that both of the refolding and unfolding of the beta-subunit would undergo a three-stage conformational change, but in a reverse order. During the refolding process, at the first stage, the configuration of the tetrapyrrole chromophores transformed from the cyclohelical to the extended one, suggested by the blue-shifted spectra. At the second stage, recovery of the hydrogen-bond and hydrophobic interaction network fixed the chromophore in a more rigid configuration, suggested by a linear increase in the total fluorescence yield. At the third stage, the increase of the FRET efficiency suggested a protein-framework movement that made the two chromophores closer or/and into a more parallel orientation. The fluorescence anisotropy further confirmed the three-stage model.

A novel automated assay with dual-color hybridization for single-nucleotide polymorphisms genotyping on gold magnetic nanoparticle array

A high-throughput and cost-effective single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping method based on a gold magnetic nanoparticle (GMNP) array with dual-color hybridization has been designed. Biotinylated single-strand polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products containing the SNP locus were captured by the GMNPs that were coated with streptavidin. The GMNP array was fabricated by immobilizing single-stranded DNA (ssDNA)-GMNP complexes onto a glass slide using a magnetic field, and SNPs were identified with dual-color fluorescence hybridization. Three different SNP loci from 24 samples were genotyped successfully using this platform. This procedure allows the user to directly analyze the bead fluorescence to determine the SNP genotype, and it eliminates the need for background subtraction for signal determination. This method also bypasses tedious PCR purification and concentration procedures, and it facilitates large-scale SNP studies by using a method that is highly sensitive, simple, labor-saving, and potentially automatable.     

PCR amplification on magnetic nanoparticles: application for high-throughput single nucleotide polymorphism genotyping

A novel approach for the genotyping of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) based on solidphase PCR on magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) is described. PCR products were amplified directly on MNPs. The genotypes of a given SNP were differentiated by hybridization with a pair of allele-specific probes labeled with dual-color fluorescence (Cy3, Cy5). The results were analyzed by scanning the microarray printed with the denatured fluorescent probes on an unmodified glass slide. Electrophoresis analysis indicated that PCR could proceed successfully when MNPs-bound primers were used. Furthermore, nine different samples were genotyped and their fluorescent signals were quantified. Genotyping results showed that three genotypes for the locus were very easily discriminated. The fluorescent ratios (match probe:mismatch probe signal) of homozygous samples were over 9.3, whereas heterozygous samples had ratios near 1.0. Without any purification and concentration of PCR products, this new MNP-PCR based genotyping assay potentially provides a rapid, labor-saving method for genotyping of a large number of individuals.
