Description

Detection method of electronic gene chip
The invention belongs to the technical field of DNA hybridization detection, and particularly relates to a detection method of an electronic gene chip.
In the prior art, a conventional detection method of a gene chip, i.e., a fluorescence scanning method, requires pretreatment of sample DNA, i.e., fluorescence labeling of a sample, hybridization of the gene chip and the sample DNA with a fluorescence scanning signal, i.e., fluorescence labeling, and detection of the hybridized fluorescence signal by a fluorescence scanner, to determine whether the detected sample contains a DNA fragment to be detected.
However, the conventional detection method of the above-mentioned conventional gene chip, i.e., the fluorescence scanning method, is still limited to the laboratory stage for the following reasons, and is still quite apart from the official application: 1. the detection cost is high, and the detection cost can be only borne by large pharmaceutical companies and scientific research institutions with sufficient expenditure. A commercial set of GeneChip signal detection and analysis systems, including fluorescence scanners, computers and software, cost about 20 million dollars, for example, the international market price of a set of chip systems (including 5 oligonucleotides and 1 cDNA chip) of Affymetrix in the United states exceeds 15 million dollars. For application type gene chips such as diagnostic chips, a very common infectious disease detection chip requires about two hundred yuan per cent for a single detection cost. The cost is the first problem to achieve wide application, so that the popularization and application difficulty are very high. 2. The existing detection method needs to carry out complicated pretreatment on sample DNA, and mainly shows that the sample needs to be subjected to fluorescent labeling. For monochromatic fluorescent labeling, although the pretreatment process is relatively simple, a good signal cannot be obtained; while the four-color fluorescence labeling signal is good, the pretreatment process is relatively complex. This process requires specialized training by professionals. 3. The fluorescent signal obtained by hybridizing the gene chip and the sample DNA with the fluorescent label can only be regarded as a qualitative or semi-quantitative signal result, and cannot be directly and accurately analyzed in a digital mode. This aspect brings great inconvenience to the further analysis of the large amount of biological data obtained from the gene chip, and also reduces the sensitivity and reliability of signal detection.
The invention aims to make up for the defects of the prior art and provides a detection method of an electronic gene chip, which is convenient to operate, low in cost, high in detection sensitivity and reliability and applicable to large-scale popularization.
The purpose of the invention is realized by the following technical scheme.
The invention relates to a detection method of an electronic gene chip, which comprises the steps of hybridizing the gene chip with an electrochemical active group with sample DNA, detecting the change of an electric signal before and after hybridization of the gene chip by using an electronic detector instead of a fluorescence scanner, and judging whether a detected sample contains a specific DNA fragment to be detected.
In the above scheme, the hybridization process is:
a. sample DNA was directly denatured without fluorescent pretreatment: heating the sample in water bath until the sample is boiled, and keeping the sample for more than 1 minute; taken out of the boiling water and immediately put on ice until completely cooled. At this point, the sample DNA has been completely denatured into single strands.
b. Sample DNA hybridization: mixing the denatured DNA sample (liquid) with the probe on the base point of the chip, and incubating for 1-24 hours at 20-45 deg.C (varying with different probe DNA sequences) for hybridization.
c. Elution of the chip: after hybridization, the chip is rinsed several times with hybridization solution without DNA sample, the temperature is controlled at 20-55 deg.C (varying with different probe DNA sequences), the time lasts more than half an hour, until the sample DNA which can not be hybridized and the non-specific adsorption of the probe are washed away.
In the above embodiment, the gene chip of the electrochemically active group is preferably a DNA probe having the following structure:
5'-NH2-(CH2)n-********+++++++++++++++++********-(CH2)n-SH-
wherein,********two DNA sequences which can be complementarily paired (A is paired with T, and G is paired with C) are shown; specific DNA fragments (10-30 bases) to be detected during hybridization are shown as ++++++++++++++; the methyl group (CH) at both ends2) The number n is 0 to 10.
In the above embodiment, the electrochemically active group may be a group of any structure capable of generating an electrochemical signal.
In the above scheme, the electrochemically active group may be carboxyferrocene or other methyl violet carboxyl derivative electrochemically active groups.
In the above scheme, the electronic detector may be an electrochemical workstation or other electronic detection equipment. And detecting the change of the electric signals before and after hybridization by using a sensitive alternating current voltammetry so as to judge whether the detected sample contains the specific DNA fragment to be detected.
Normally, an electrical signal is present at the base point prior to hybridization. If the detection sample contains a probe sequence (specific DNA fragment to be detected), the electric signal on the base point disappears after hybridization; otherwise, the electrical signal still exists.
The detection process flow of the electronic gene chip of the invention can be seen in FIG. 2.
The principle of the technical scheme of the invention is as follows: before hybridization, since both ends of the probe DNA contain a DNA sequence capable of completely pairing, a radial loop structure (stemloop) can be formed in a free state. At this time, the 5 ' end and the 3 ' end of the probe are close, and the electrochemically active group carried by the 3 ' end can generate an electric signal which can be detected by an electrochemical workstation when the electrochemically active group is close to the Au surface. After hybridization, the specific DNA fragment in the middle section of the probe and the sample are subjected to DNA complementary pairing to form a normal DNA double helix structure, so that the radial-loop structure is damaged. At this point, the 5 'end and 3' end of the probe are no longer in close proximity, resulting in a loss of the original electrochemical signal. By using the principle, whether the DNA completes hybridization pairing can be detected, namely, the hybridization signal of the DNA on the designed gene chip can be detected. For a further understanding of the above principles, reference may be made to FIG. 1.
The detection method of the electronic gene chip can carry out quantitative detection on the change generated by the electric signal in the DNA hybridization process. The technology applies mature microelectronic technology to gene chips, and is in the leading position all over the world at present.
The technology uses an electronic detector to detect the signal of the gene chip, directly applies the mature technology and the achievement of the microelectronic industry, and compared with the prior gene chip, the technology has the following advantages: 1. the cost of the detection equipment is greatly reduced, and the cost of the detection equipment used as an electronic detector for signal detection, such as an electrochemical workstation, is far lower than that of a fluorescence scanner used in the prior art, thereby being beneficial to realizing civilization and entering a wide application field; 2. in the hybridization process, a sample to be detected does not need any label, so that a complex fluorescent label pretreatment process is omitted, and the pretreatment process can be finished by anyone only through simple training. 3. The electric scanning signal obtained by the method is a quantitative signal result and can be accurately and digitally analyzed. This makes it possible to further analyze the great amount of biological data obtained by gene chip and raise the sensitivity and reliability of signal detection greatly. Table 1 shows the comparison between the present invention and the conventional detection method.

c. Elution of the chip: and (3) rinsing the chip for several times by using the hybridization solution without the DNA sample, controlling the temperature to be 20-55 ℃ (changing with different probe DNA sequences), and lasting for more than half an hour until the sample DNA which is not hybridized is washed away and the non-specific adsorption of the probe is carried out. After completion of hybridization in this example, the chip was washed with double distilled water and rinsed several times for about 30 minutes in double distilled water at 45 ℃.

It is proved that the electric signal group is far away from the Au surface on the chip due to the damage of the stem-loop structure, so that the disappearance of the electrochemical signal is caused. It was confirmed that the sample contained a DNA sequence that matched with the probe DNA sequence, i.e., contained the pUC18 plasmid.
