Dramatic increase in the signal and sensitivity of detection <Emphasis Type="Italic">via</Emphasis> self-assembly of branched DNA

In molecular testing using PCR, the target DNA is amplified via PCR and the sequence of interest is investigated via hybridization with short oligonucleotide capture probes that are either in a solution or immobilized on solid supports such as beads or glass slides. In this report, we report the discovery of assembly of DNA complex(es) between a capture probe and multiple strands of the PCR product. The DNA complex most likely has branched structure. The assembly of branched DNA was facilitated by the product of asymmetric PCR. The amount of branched DNA assembled was increased five fold when the asymmetric PCR product was denatured and hybridized with a capture probe all in the same PCR reaction mixture. The major branched DNA species appeared to contain three reverse strands (the strand complementary to the capture probe) and two forward strands. The DNA was sensitive to S1 nuclease suggesting that it had single-stranded gaps. Branched DNA also appeared to be assembled with the capture probes immobilized on the surface of solid support when the product of asymmetric PCR was hybridized. Assembly of the branched DNA was also increased when hybridization was performed in complete PCR reaction mixture suggesting the requirement of DNA synthesis. Integration of asymmetric PCR, heat denaturation and hybridization in the same PCR reaction mixture with the capture probes immobilized on the surface of solid support achieved dramatic increase in the signal and sensitivity of detection of DNA. Such a system should be advantageously applied for development of automated process for detection of DNA.     

PCR and DNA sequencing

Specific DNA segments defined by the sequence of two oligonucleotides can be enzymatically amplified up to a millionfold using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). One of the most significant uses of this technique is for generation of sequencing templates, either from cloned inserts or directly from genomic DNA. To avoid the problem of reassociation of the linear DNA strands in the sequencing reaction, ssDNA templates can be produced directly in the PCR or generated directly from dsDNA by enzymatic treatment, electrophoretic separation or affinity purification. By combining PCR with direct sequencing, both the amplification and the sequencing reaction can be performed in the same vial. Finally, use of fluorescently labeled terminators or sequencing primers will allow the whole procedure to be amenable to complete automation.     

Nonenymatic ligation of double-helical DNA by alternate-strand triple helix formation.

Nonenzymatic ligation of double-stranded DNA has been performed using an alternate-strand binding oligodeoxyribonucleotide template to juxtapose the duplex termini in a triple helical complex. The template associates with the duplex termini by Hoogsteen hydrogen bonding to alternate strands on opposite sides of the ligation site. Intermolecular and intramolecular ligation of linearized plasmid DNA are observed in the reaction, which depends on the template oligodeoxyribonucleotide and a condensing agent, N-cyanoimidazole. Intramolecular ligation products include those in which both strands are covalently closed in a circle. Ligation of the two strands is sequential and occurs at comparable rates for the first and second strands ligating. The covalent linkages formed in the reaction can be cleaved by the restriction endonuclease Stu I, supporting their identification as phosphodiesters.

Amplification of bacterial genomic DNA by the polymerase chain reaction and direct sequencing after asymmetric amplification: application to the study of periplasmic permeases.

The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has been used to amplify DNA fragments by using eucaryotic genomic DNA as a template. We show that bacterial genomic DNA can be used as a template for PCR amplification. We demonstrate that DNA fragments at least as large as 4,400 base pairs can be amplified with fidelity and that the amplified DNA can be used as a substrate for most operations involving DNA. We discuss problems inherent in the direct sequencing of the amplified product, one of the important exploitations of this methodology. We have solved the problems by developing an "asymmetric amplification" method in which one of the oligonucleotide primers is used in limiting amounts, thus allowing the accumulation of single-stranded copies of only one of the DNA strands. As an illustration of the use of PCR in bacteria, we have amplified, sequenced, and subcloned several DNA fragments carrying mutations in genes of the histidine permease operon. These mutations are part of a preliminary approach to studying protein-protein interactions in transport, and their nature is discussed.
