An approach to the use of stable isotopes for DNA sequencing

The sequencing of DNA by current procedures involves the use of radioisotopic or fluorescent labels. We propose that stable isotopes can be used as such labels and that the large number of stable isotopes available would allow multiplexing so that many DNA segments could be sequenced simultaneously. We have developed methods to use 57Fe2O3 to synthesize ferrocene and to attach the ferrocene to the 5' end of oligonucleotides. The 57Fe-labeled M13 universal primer functioned normally in a Sanger sequencing procedure. When a 57Fe-labeled oligonucleotide had migrated on a polyacrylamide gel it was readily located on the dried gel by scanning with resonance ionization spectroscopy (RIS) coupled with mass spectrometry. Using a 57Fe-labeled primer in a PCR reaction a 2000-bp DNA was produced that was detected by RIS on nylon membrane after agarose electrophoresis. The rapid analysis features of RIS coupled with the multispectral multiplexing possibilities of stable isotopes should significantly increase the rate of determination of DNA sequences.     

Universal primers for fluorescent labelling of PCR fragments--an efficient and cost-effective approach to genotyping by fluorescence

Directly labelling locus‐specific primers for microsatellite analysis is expensive and a common limitation to small‐budget molecular ecology projects. More cost‐effective end‐labelling of PCR products can be achieved through a three primer PCR approach, involving a fluorescently labelled universal primer in combination with modified locus‐specific primers with 5′ universal primer sequence tails. This technique has been widely used but has been limited largely due to a lack of available universal primers suitable for co‐amplifying large numbers of size overlapping loci and without requiring locus‐specific PCR conditions to be modified. In this study, we report a suite of four high‐performance universal primers that can be employed in a three primer PCR approach for efficient and cost‐effective fluorescent end‐labelling of PCR fragments. Amplification efficiency is maximized owing to high universal primer Tm values (approximately 60+ °C) that enhance primer versatility and enable higher annealing temperatures to be employed compared with commonly used universal primers such as M13. We demonstrate that these universal primers can be combined with multiple fluorophores to co‐amplify multiple loci efficiently via multiplex PCR. This method provides a level of multiplexing and PCR efficiency similar to microsatellite fluorescent detection assays using directly labelled primers while dramatically reducing project costs. Primer performance is tested using several alternative PCR strategies that involve both single and multiple fluorophores in single and multiplex PCR across a wide range of taxa.     

Full-length cDNA cloning utilizing the polymerase chain reaction, a degenerate oligonucleotide sequence and a universal mRNA primer.

A full-length cDNA was selectively amplified by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) utilizing a primer pair consisting of a "universal" 21-base synthetic deoxyoligonucleotide (oligo dT 17GGCC) and a specific degenerate deoxyoligonucleotide sequence (DOS) derived from the N-terminal amino acid sequence. This double-stranded amplified cDNA was uni-directionally cloned into M13mp19 utilizing two restriction sites that had been previously incorporated into the termini of the universal and specific DOS primers. Cloning of the specific cDNA via this PCR amplification with the universal/specific DOS primer pair approach was confirmed by screening with a second DOS contiguous with the DOS employed to prime second (sense)-strand cDNA synthesis. This technique allows for the selective full-length cDNA cloning of low-abundance mRNAs from a single-protein sequence determination.     

Linkage Analysis with Multiplexed Short Tandem Repeat Polymorphisms Using Infrared Fluorescence and M13 Tailed Primers

The use of short tandem repeat polymorphisms (STRPs) as marker loci for linkage analysis is becoming increasingly important due to their large numbers in the human genome and their high degree of polymorphism. Fluorescence-based detection of the STRP pattern with an automated DNA sequencer has improved the efficiency of this technique by eliminating the need for radioactivity and producing a digitized autoradiogram-like image that can be used for computer analysis. In an effort to simplify the procedure and to reduce the cost of fluorescence STRP analysis, we have developed a technique known as multiplexing STRPs with tailed primers (MSTP) using primers that have a 19-bp extension, identical to the sequence of an M13 sequencing primer, on the 5′ end of the forward primer in conjunction with multiplexing several primer pairs in a single polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification. The banding pattern is detected with the addition of the M13 primer-dye conjugate as the sole primer conjugated to the fluorescent dye, eliminating the need for direct conjugation of the infrared fluorescent dye tn the STRP primers. The use of MSTP for linkage analysis greatly reduces the number of PCR reactions. Up to five primer pairs can be multiplexed together in the same reaction. At present, a set of 148 STRP markers spaced at an average genetic distance of 28 cM throughout the autosomal genome can be analyzed in 37 sets of multiplexed amplification reactions. We have automated the analysis of these patterns for linkage using software that both detects the STRP banding pattern and determines their sizes. This information can then be exported in a user-defined format from a database manager for linkage analysis.     

Efficient site-directed mutagenesis by simultaneous use of two primers.

A rapid and efficient procedure for site specific mutagenesis is described. A double primed synthesis with a 17-mer mismatch primer and a "universal" 15-mer M13 sequencing primer was used to introduce a T to A transversion into an ompF signal peptide gene cloned in the M13mp8 vector. The two primers were annealed to the circular single stranded M13 template. After a short extension and ligation reaction, a double stranded restriction fragment containing the mismatch (ompF*/EcoR1-SalI) was cut out of the partly single stranded circular DNA and inserted into pBR322. 42% of the E.coli transformants harboured plasmid with the desired mutation, which could be detected by the appearance of a new restriction site (MboII) and by dot blot hybridization of plasmid DNA with the 32P-labeled 17-mer.

Consecutive DNA terminator sequencing by using enzymatically generated primers

An improved strategy for the dideoxy chain termination sequencing of M13 recombinant DNA using enzymatically generated primers is presented. It involves synchronous extension of the universal primer with the Klenow fragment of DNA polymerase I at an average rate of 200 deoxynucleoside triphosphates per minute to the immediate downstream region of a preselected restriction enzyme site. Subsequent cleavage with the restriction enzyme generates the short primers with homogeneous 5′ ends which can be used for further sequencing. The next restriction sites are selected in the newly sequenced regions of DNA by means of a microcomputer. By repeating this primer extension-cleavage-sequencing strategy sequences altogether about 6 kb long from several recombinant single-stranded M13 DNAs have been determined by using twenty restriction enzymes with different specificities.     

The making of strand-specific M13 probes

A novel approach has been developed for the preparation of highly radioactive, strand-specific M13 probes. A universal primer, complementary to the region 5' to the multiple cloning sites of M13mp7, was used to initiate the DNA synthesis of the complementary strand of the M13 sequence downstream from the inserted sequence. The synthesis of the (?) strand, which was labeled with a radioactively labeled precursor, did not proceed to completion so that the inserted sequence was kept single-stranded. Thus, a partially double-stranded probe that had the specificity of this inserted sequence was obtained. As an example for the application of single-stranded specific hybridization probes, an M13mp7 subclone of a zein cDNA clone of maize (A30) was labeled and used in a dot hybridization test to select from the hundreds of M13mp7 subclones of the zein genomic clone, 24, the sequences complementary to the probe. The specificity of the probe was confirmed by dideoxy chain terminator sequencing experiments.
