- Preparation of SYBR Gold The reagents were weighed out and mixed in a 15 mL tube (1000-fold dilution). An example is shown below. The tube was gently shaken to mix well. The 15 mL tube was covered with aluminum foil.
- Example 2 The test was carried out in the same manner as in Example 1, except that AAV8 and anti-AAV8 antibody (ADK8) were replaced with AAV2 and anti-AAV2 antibody (A20) shown in the table below. The results are shown in Figure 3.
- Example 3 AAV8 and anti-AAV8 antibody (ADK8) were tested as in Example 1, using a mixture of AAV2 and AAV8 as shown in the table below, and anti-AAV2 antibody (A20) and anti-AAV8 antibody (ADK8). The results are shown in Figure 4. A dose-response curve was obtained for the total number of AAV8 capsids. Detection of antibodies against individual AAV serotypes (AAV8 & AAV2) was confirmed by the method of the present invention (dFLISA).
- Example 4 The test was carried out in the same manner as in Example 1, except that SYBR Gold was replaced with QuantiFluor, and proteins were detected using antibodies labeled with HRP (Horse Radish Peroxidase) and absorbance measurements were performed when TMB (3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine) was added. The results are shown in Figure 5.
- HRP Hase Radish Peroxidase
- Example 5 A test was performed in the same manner as in Example 2 using AAV2 containing ssDNA and AAV2 containing scDNA. The results are shown in Figure 6.
- the fluorescence intensity of AAV2 scDNA was about 1.4-1.6 times that of AAV2 ssDNA. Since scDNA is a long-chain DNA, it may be possible to perform quantification independent of DNA length by appropriately correcting for the DNA length.
- Example 6 Measurement of DNA fluorescence intensity was performed in the same manner as in Example 2, using conventional wavelengths of 495 nm and 535 nm or wavelengths of 500 nm and 535 nm (optimized conditions) by the inventors. The results are shown in Figure 7. The signal background of the samples was equal or higher under the optimized conditions compared to the conventional wavelengths.
- Example 7 Tests were performed in the same manner as in Example 2 using a transparent plate (Nunc MaxiSorpTM flat-bottom clear 96-well plate) and a black plate (The Nunc MaxiSorpTM flat-bottom black 96-well plate). The results are shown in FIG. 8. The fluorescence intensity of the sample showed a higher response in the black plate compared to the transparent plate. This result suggests that the black microplate is suitable for providing a signal suitable for the method of the present invention.
- Example 8 To confirm whether the method of the present invention (dFLISA) can be used to analyze unpurified samples without purification, a spike recovery test was performed. The recovery rate was within ⁇ 25% of the predicted value, meeting the criteria. This indicates that the dFLISA results are not easily affected by contaminants contained in unpurified samples. This indicates that dFLISA is an excellent method for evaluating unpurified AAV samples.
- the dFLISA method is a valuable and novel method that can be used to accurately quantify the titer of unpurified samples, and is unique in that it can directly quantify the full and empty capsid concentrations and FP/EP ratios of unpurified samples. The results are shown in Figure 9.
- dFLISA can measure the capsid titer and genome titer of unpurified samples.
- the capsid titer measured by dFLISA was comparable to that measured by ELISA.
- the genome titer results by dFLISA were higher than those by dPCR. Considering the high recovery rate in the spike recovery experiment, the dFLISA results are considered reliable. Since previous studies have shown that dPCR can be affected by impurity interference, dFLISA may be a more accurate method to measure the concentration of AAV genome material in unpurified samples compared with the combination of ELISA and dPCR. The results are shown in Figure 10.
- AAV8-Lot2 was concentrated by ultracentrifugation to final concentrations of 5.36 x 1013 cp/mL and 4.75 x 1013 vg/mL, and then diluted as follows in 1 x PBS (containing 0.05% Tween 20): High concentration (Spike H): 1.07 x 10 cp/mL and 9.50 x 10 vg/mL, medium concentration (Spike M): 7.15 x 10 cp/mL and 6.33 x 10 vg/mL, low concentration (Spike L): 5.36 x 10 cp/mL and 4.75 x 10 vg/mL.
- Each spike sample solution was added to an unknown concentration unpurified sample (AAV8-Lot4) in a 1:1 volume ratio and mixed, and the prepared spike ratio sample solution was added to each well of the plate in 100 ⁇ L.
- N 2 analyses were performed.
- Mixed spike (HM) (1/2) (crude + spike H) - (1/2) (crude + spike L) (Equation 4)
- the target recovery rate (%) was set within ⁇ 25%.
- dFLISA Quantification of capsid and genome titers of unpurified samples.
- dFLISA was performed as described above.
- AAV8-Lot1 was diluted 60-fold in 1x PBS (containing 0.05% Tween 20) to a final concentration of 2.01 x 1011 cp/mL and 1.81 x 1011 vg/mL, and then serially diluted at a 1:2 ratio to serve as calibration curve standards.
- Example 9 The fluorescence intensity in the quantification of genomes using fluorescent dyes varies depending on the length of the genome, which is also related to dFLISA.
- dFLISA fluorescence intensity normalized by concentration
- a correlation was observed between genome length and fluorescence intensity.
- Figure 11 Furthermore, when the fluorescence intensity was compared between AAV vectors of different genome lengths (Table 22), the fluorescence intensity was high in samples with long genome lengths, and the ratio of genome length to fluorescence intensity was equivalent to that in Figure 11. From these results, the validity of dFLISA as a method for evaluating the genomes of AAV vectors with various nucleic acids was confirmed. In addition, even if the genome length is different from that of the standard AAV vector, the genome length can be corrected by calculation, and it was shown that it is not necessary to prepare a standard AAV for each AAV with a different genome length.
- Fluorescence intensity of ssDNA from 1100 bp to 5100 bp was measured using ssDNA 7K ladder (PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA, USA).
- the ssDNA ladder marker solution was appropriately diluted with Milli-Q and then loaded onto a 1% agarose gel.
- 10 ⁇ L of sample was added to 2 ⁇ L of EzApplyDNA (6x loading buffer), mixed thoroughly by pipetting, and 10 ⁇ L of the mixture was loaded onto the gel. Electrophoresis was performed at 70 V for 45 min. After electrophoresis, the gel was stained and washed according to the manufacturer's instructions. SYBR Gold Nucleic Acid Gel Staining solution was used to stain the gel. Quantitative analysis of brightness density in the stained gel was performed.
- MP mass photometry
- AAV2-Lot1 containing ssDNA was diluted 100-fold in 1x PBS (containing 0.05% Tween 20) to final concentrations of 7.70 x 1010 cp/mL and 6.41 x 1010 vg/mL.
- a standard curve was prepared by serial dilution in 1:2 ratio steps.
- AAV2-Lot2 containing scDNA was diluted 100-fold to final concentrations of 2.11 x 1011 cp/mL and 1.93 x 1011 vg/mL.
- a standard curve was prepared by serial dilution in 1:2 ratio steps.
- the fluorescence intensity ratios of ssDNA AAV8 and scDNA AAV2 were measured by dFLISA and compared with the fluorescence intensity ratios calculated from the curves.
