This paper describes a novel enzymatic amplification strategy for ultrasensitive electrochemical immunosensing. This approach utilizes glucose oxidase for the enzymatic deposition of gold nanoparticles onto an indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode surface using a novel gold developer solution consisting of 20 mM of glucose, 20 mM of NaSCN, 0.5 M of p-benzoquinone (PBQ) and 1 mM of AuCl(4)(-) dissolved in 0.1 M of pH 7.5 phosphate buffer solution. The amount of gold deposited was quantified electrochemically by monitoring the reduction of gold oxide in an aqueous solution of 0.5 M of H(2)SO(4), which was correlated to the amount of antigens in the solution. The effectiveness of this strategy was demonstrated experimentally through the construction of an immunosensor for the detection of mouse IgG using a sandwich immunoassay in a linear dynamic range of 5 pg/ml to 50 ng/ml. A good mean apparent recovery in the range of 88-102% was obtained over the entire linear dynamic range of the sensor response in the serum samples. This suggested that the immunosensor would be useful for the testing of proteins in real clinical samples. 相似文献

Ultrasensitive electrochemical aptasensor for thrombin based on the amplification of aptamer-AuNPs-HRP conjugates 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Successful development of an ultrasensitive and highly specific electrochemical aptasensor for thrombin based on amplification of aptamer-gold nanoparticles-horseradish peroxidase (aptamer-AuNPs-HRP) conjugates was reported. In this electrochemical protocol, aptamer1 (Apt1) was immobilized on core/shell Fe(3)O(4)/Au magnetic nanoparticles (AuMNPs) and served as capture probe. Aptamer2 (Apt2) was dual labeled with AuNPs and HRP and used as detection probe. In the presence of thrombin, the sandwich format of AuMNPs-Apt1/thrombin/Apt2-AuNPs-HRP was fabricated. Remarkable signal amplification was realized by taking the advantage of AuNPs and catalytic reactions of HRP. Other proteins, such as human serum albumin, lysozyme, fibrinogen, and IgG did not show significant interference with the assay for thrombin. Linear response to thrombin concentration in the range of 0.1-60 pM and lower detection limit down to 30 fM (S/N=3) was obtained with the proposed method. This electrochemical aptasensor is simple, rapid (the whole detection period for a thrombin sample is less than 35 min), sensitive and highly specific, it shows promising potential in protein detection and disease diagnosis. 相似文献

On the basis of aptamer-based rolling circle amplification (RCA) and magnetic beads (MBs), a highly sensitive electrochemical method was developed for the determination of Ochratoxin A (OTA). Initially, an amino-modified capture DNA was immobilized onto MBs for the following hybridization with an OTA aptamer and a phosphate labeled padlock DNA. In the presence of OTA, the aptamer would dissociate from the bioconjugate, and the padlock DNA would subsequently hybridize with the capture DNA to form a circular template with the aid of the T4 ligase. Next, capture DNA would act as primer to initiate a linear RCA reaction and hence generate a long tandem repeated sequences by phi29 DNA polymerase and dNTPs. Then, two quantum dots (QDs) labeled DNA probes were tagged on the resulted RCA product to indicate the OTA recognition event by electrochemical readout. This strategy, based on the novel design of OTA-mediated DNA circularization, the combination of RCA and double signal probes introduction, could detect OTA down to the level of 0.2 pg mL(-1) with a dynamic range spanning more than 4 orders of magnitude. The proposed approach is tested to determine OTA in red wines and shows good application potential in real samples. 相似文献

While microarrays hold considerable promise in large-scale biology on account of their massively parallel analytical nature, there is a need for compatible signal amplification procedures to increase sensitivity without loss of multiplexing. Rolling circle amplification (RCA) is a molecular amplification method with the unique property of product localization. This report describes the application of RCA signal amplification for multiplexed, direct detection and quantitation of nucleic acid targets on planar glass and gel-coated microarrays. As few as 150 molecules bound to the surface of microarrays can be detected using RCA. Because of the linear kinetics of RCA, nucleic acid target molecules may be measured with a dynamic range of four orders of magnitude. Consequently, RCA is a promising technology for the direct measurement of nucleic acids on microarrays without the need for a potentially biasing preamplification step. 相似文献

Ultrasensitive electrochemical immunosensor for ochratoxin A using gold colloid-mediated hapten immobilization 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A convenient, specific, and highly sensitive electrochemical immunosensor based on an indirect competitive assay format was developed for the determination of ochratoxin A (OTA), a common toxic contaminant in various kinds of agricultural products. The sensing substrate was prepared using a gold electrode modified with a self-assembled monolayer of 1,6-hexanedithiol that mediated the assembly of a gold colloid layer, which could enhance the surface loading of OTA-ovalbumin conjugate and improve the sensitivity in electrochemical readouts. After competition of the limited anti-OTA mouse monoclonal antibody between immobilized hapten and OTA analyte in sample solution, alkaline phosphatase (ALP)-labeled horse anti-mouse immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody was selectively bound onto the surface of the electrode, affording an indicator for OTA concentration in the sample. Electrochemical response arising from the oxidation of enzymatic product of 1-naphthyl phosphate was observed to be inversely proportional to OTA concentration in the range from 10 pg/ml to 100 ng/ml with a detection limit as low as 8.2 pg/ml. Furthermore, a negligible matrix effect and good recoveries were obtained in the determination of corn samples, evidencing the feasibility of the proposed method for accurate determination of OTA in corn samples. 相似文献

A facile and sensitive electrochemical immunosensor for detection of human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) was designed by using functionalized mesoporous nanoparticles as bionanolabels. To construct high-performance electrochemical immunosensor, Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) dotted carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)-graphene composite was immobilized on the working electrode, which can increase the surface area to capture a large amount of primary antibodies (Ab(1)) as well as improve the electronic transmission rate. The as-prepared bionanolabels. composed of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MCM-41) coated with AuNPs through thionine linking, showed good adsorption of horseradish peroxidase-labeled secondary anti-hCG antibody. Interlayer thionine was not only a bridging agent between MCM-41 and AuNPs but also an excellent electron mediator. The approach provided a good linear response range from 0.005 to 500 mIU mL(-1) with a low detection limit of 0.0026 mIU mL(-1). The immunosensor showed good precision, acceptable stability and reproducibility. Satisfactory results were obtained for determination of hCG in human serum samples. The proposed method provides a new promising platform of clinical immunoassay for other biomolecules. 相似文献

A microRNA detection system based on padlock probes and rolling circle amplification 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2 下载免费PDF全文
The differential expression and the regulatory roles of microRNAs (miRNAs) are being studied intensively these years. Their minute size of only 19-24 nucleotides and strong sequence similarity among related species call for enhanced methods for reliable detection and quantification. Moreover, miRNA expression is generally restricted to a limited number of specific cells within an organism and therefore requires highly sensitive detection methods. Here we present a simple and reliable miRNA detection protocol based on padlock probes and rolling circle amplification. It can be performed without specialized equipment and is capable of measuring the content of specific miRNAs in a few nanograms of total RNA. 相似文献

Coupled rolling circle amplification loop-mediated amplification for rapid detection of short DNA sequences 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Circularizable oligonucleotide probes can detect short DNA sequences with single-base resolution at the site of ligation and can be amplified by rolling circle amplification (RCA) using strand displacing polymerases. A secondary amplification scheme was developed that uses the loop-mediated amplification reaction concurrent with RCA to achieve rapid signal development from the starting circular molecules. This isothermal reaction was found to be significantly faster than the comparable hyperbranching amplification method and could detect 100 circular copies in less than 1 h. 相似文献

In vitro random mutagenesis is a powerful tool for altering properties of enzymes. We describe here a novel random mutagenesis method using rolling circle amplification, named error-prone RCA. This method consists of only one DNA amplification step followed by transformation of the host strain, without treatment with any restriction enzymes or DNA ligases, and results in a randomly mutated plasmid library with 3–4 mutations per kilobase. Specific primers or special equipment, such as a thermal-cycler, are not required. This method permits rapid preparation of randomly mutated plasmid libraries, enabling random mutagenesis to become a more commonly used technique. 相似文献

Multiplexed protein profiling on antibody-based microarrays by rolling circle amplification 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Multiplexed immunoassays on antibody-based protein microarrays are an attractive solution for analyzing biological responses in normal and diseased states. Recently, the feasibility and utility of these assays has been established as concerns about specificity and sensitivity are being overcome by careful quality control and amplification technologies such as rolling circle amplification (RCA). RCA-amplified protein chips can now profile up to 150 proteins in various substrates including serum, plasma, and supernatants with high sensitivity, broad dynamic range and good reproducibility. Diagnostic utility of RCA-amplified protein chips has been shown for multiplexed allergen testing. When allied with multivariate statistical analysis, RCA protein chips have the potential to identify multiplexed biomarker classifiers for disease diagnosis and drug response. 相似文献

We have developed a novel, isothermal DNA amplification strategy that employs phi29 DNA polymerase and rolling circle amplification to generate high-quality templates for DNA sequencing reactions. The TempliPhi DNA amplification kits take advantage of the fact that cloned DNA is typically obtained in circular vectors, which are readily replicated in vitro using phi29 DNA polymerase by a rolling circle mechanism. This single subunit, proofreading DNA polymerase has excellent processivity and strand displacement properties for generation of multiple, tandem double-stranded copies of the circular DNA, generating as much as 10(7)-fold amplification. Large amounts of product (1-3 microg) can be obtained in as little as 4 hours. Input DNA can be as little as 0.01 ng of purified plasmid DNA, a single bacterial colony, or a 1 microL of a saturated overnight culture. Additionally, the presence of an associated proof reading function within the phi29 DNA polymerase ensures high-fidelity amplification. Once completed, the product DNA can be used directly in sequencing reactions. Additionally, the properties of phi29 DNA polymerase and its use in applications such as amplification ofhuman genomic DNA for genotyping studies is discussed. 相似文献

Helicobacter pylori is closely linked to many gastric diseases such as gastric ulcers and duodenal ulcers. Therefore, biosensing H. pylori has attracted wide attention from both scientists and clinicians. Here, we proposed an electrochemiluminescence (ECL)-based platform that could sensitively detect H. pylori DNA. In this platform, a novel target-cycling synchronized rolling circle amplification was used for signal amplification. Silver nanoclusters (Ag NCs) were synthesized on the circle DNA products, embedding them with the ability to catalyze the electrochemical reduction of K2S2O8, in turn resulting in rapid consumption of the ECL co-reactant near the working electrode, and leading to a decrease in the ECL emission intensity. In addition to its excellent stability and selectivity, the proposed strategy had a low detection limit of 10 pM, an indication that it can be beneficially applied to test biosamples. Furthermore, a biosensing chip was designed to improve the throughput and shed new light on large-scale clinical biosensing applications. 相似文献

A novel cascade fluorescence signal amplification strategy based on the rolling circle amplification (RCA)-aided assembly of fluorescent DNA nanotags as fluorescent labels and multiplex binding of the biotin-streptavidin system was proposed for detection of protein target at ultralow concentration. In the strategy, fluorescent DNA nanotags are prepared relying on intercalating dye arrays assembled on nanostructured DNA templates by intercalation between base pairs. The RCA product containing tandem-repeat sequences could serve as an excellent template for periodic assembly of fluorescent DNA nanotags, which were presented per protein recognition event to numerous fluorescent DNA nanotags for assay readout. Both the RCA and the multiplex binding system showed remarkable amplification efficiency, very little nonspecific adsorption, and low background signal. Using human IgG as a model protein, the designed strategy was successfully demonstrated for the ultrasensitive detection of protein target. The results revealed that the strategy exhibited a dynamic response to human IgG over a three-decade concentration range from 1.0 pM to 1.0 fM with a limit of detection as low as 0.9 fM. By comparison with the assay of multiple labeling antibodies with the dye/DNA conjugate, the limit of detection was improved by 4 orders. The designed signal amplification strategy would hold great promise as a powerful tool to be applied for the ultrasensitive detection of target protein in immunoassay. 相似文献

Primer extension mutagenesis is a popular tool to create libraries for in vitro evolution experiments. Here we describe a further improvement of the method described by T.A. Kunkel using uracil-containing single-stranded DNA as the template for the primer extension by additional uracil-DNA glycosylase treatment and rolling circle amplification (RCA) steps. It is shown that removal of uracil bases from the template leads to selective amplification of the nascently synthesized circular DNA strand carrying the desired mutations by phi29 DNA polymerase. Selective RCA (sRCA) of the DNA heteroduplex formed in Kunkel's mutagenesis increases the mutagenesis efficiency from 50% close to 100% and the number of transformants 300-fold without notable diversity bias. We also observed that both the mutated and the wild-type DNA were present in at least one third of the cells transformed directly with Kunkel's heteroduplex. In contrast, the cells transformed with sRCA product contained only mutated DNA. In sRCA, the complex cell-based selection for the mutant strand is replaced with the more controllable enzyme-based selection and less DNA is needed for library creation. Construction of a gene library of ten billion members is demonstrated with the described method with 240 nanograms of DNA as starting material. 相似文献

Background
Rolling circle amplification of ligated probes is a simple and sensitive means for genotyping directly from genomic DNA. SNPs and mutations are interrogated with open circle probes (OCP) that can be circularized by DNA ligase when the probe matches the genotype. An amplified detection signal is generated by exponential rolling circle amplification (ERCA) of the circularized probe. The low cost and scalability of ligation/ERCA genotyping makes it ideally suited for automated, high throughput methods.Results
A retrospective study using human genomic DNA samples of known genotype was performed for four different clinically relevant mutations: Factor V Leiden, Factor II prothrombin, and two hemochromatosis mutations, C282Y and H63D. Greater than 99% accuracy was obtained genotyping genomic DNA samples from hundreds of different individuals. The combined process of ligation/ERCA was performed in a single tube and produced fluorescent signal directly from genomic DNA in less than an hour. In each assay, the probes for both normal and mutant alleles were combined in a single reaction. Multiple ERCA primers combined with a quenched-peptide nucleic acid (Q-PNA) fluorescent detection system greatly accellerated the appearance of signal. Probes designed with hairpin structures reduced misamplification. Genotyping accuracy was identical from either purified genomic DNA or genomic DNA generated using whole genome amplification (WGA). Fluorescent signal output was measured in real time and as an end point.Conclusions
Combining the optimal elements for ligation/ERCA genotyping has resulted in a highly accurate single tube assay for genotyping directly from genomic DNA samples. Accuracy exceeded 99 % for four probe sets targeting clinically relevant mutations. No genotypes were called incorrectly using either genomic DNA or whole genome amplified sample. 相似文献19.

We herein report the design of a dumbbell-shaped DNA probe that integrates target-binding, amplification and signaling within one multifunctional design. The dumbbell probe can initiate rolling circle amplification (D-RCA) in the presence of specific microRNA (miRNA) targets. This D-RCA-based miRNA strategy allows quantification of miRNA with very low quantity of RNA samples. The femtomolar sensitivity of D-RCA compares favorably with other existing technologies. More significantly, the dynamic range of D-RCA is extremely large, covering eight orders of magnitude. We also demonstrate miRNA quantification with this highly sensitive and inexpensive D-RCA strategy in clinical samples. 相似文献

Selection of phage libraries against complex living targets such as whole cells or organs can yield valuable targeting ligands without prior knowledge of the targeted receptor. Our previous studies have shown that noninfective multivalent ligand display phagemids internalize into mammalian cells more efficiently than their monovalent counterparts suggesting that cell-based selection of internalizing ligands might be improved using multivalently displayed peptides, antibodies or cDNAs. However, alternative methods of phage recovery are needed to select phage from noninfective libraries. To this end, we reasoned that rolling circle amplification (RCA) of phage DNA could be used to recover noninfective phage. In feasibility studies, we obtained up to 1.5 million-fold enrichment of internalizing EGF-targeted phage using RCA. When RCA was applied to a large random peptide library, eight distinct human prostate carcinoma cell-internalizing peptides were isolated within three selection rounds. These data establish RCA as an alternative to infection for phage recovery that can be used to identify peptides from noninfective phage display libraries or infective libraries under conditions where there is the potential for loss of phage infectivity. 相似文献
