This invention discloses an oligonucleotide blocker for protein detection systems and a method for reducing the background of ultrasensitive protein detection systems based on ortho-reactions. The oligonucleotide blocker comprises at least one pair of oligonucleotide sequences, each oligonucleotide sequence including a core blocking sequence and support sequences located at the 5' and 3' ends of the core blocking sequence, respectively. Only the core blocking sequence is partially or completely complementary to the extension site in the probe. The core blocking sequence occupies the extension site of the untargeted free antibody-probe conjugate, preventing the untargeted free antibody-probe conjugate from binding and extending, thereby reducing the background of PEA ultrasensitive protein detection. The support sequences not only prevent the core blocking sequence from forming secondary structures itself, but also prevent the decrease in nucleic acid pairing efficiency caused by spatial distortion or rigid tension, stabilizing the blocking effect of the oligonucleotide blocker.

Description

Oligonucleotide blocker for protein detection system and method for reducing background of ultrasensitive protein detection system based on ortho reaction
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of biology, and particularly relates to an oligonucleotide blocker for a protein detection system and a method for reducing the background of an ultrasensitive protein detection system based on ortho-position reaction.
Background
The protein detection technology has important significance in biomedical research and clinical diagnosis, and especially in early screening, disease course monitoring and curative effect evaluation of serious diseases, the detection sensitivity directly determines the application depth and accuracy of the protein detection technology. The traditional detection technology such as ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), chemiluminescence and the like has certain quantitative capability, but the lower detection limit is usually at the pM level, and the requirement of accurately detecting low-abundance protein markers at the fg/mL level and even the ag/mL level in blood plasma cannot be met. Along with the continuous promotion of accurate medical treatment and early intervention, the development of protein detection means with higher sensitivity, smaller sample requirement and faster response capability has become a common requirement of clinic and scientific research.
In recent years, the rising ultrasensitive detection technology, such as a single-molecule immunization method (Simoa) of Quanterix company, has the detection lower limit reaching fM or even aM level, has 100-1000 times higher detection sensitivity than the traditional technology, and can detect and analyze the protein markers with ultralow abundance in blood plasma. However, the method based on Simoa technology platform involves a multi-step cleaning process, requires a matched precise chip and expensive instruments, so that the detection cost is high, and the method is difficult to be applied to large-scale clinical diagnosis.
Besides Simoa technology platforms, rapid protein detection technologies based on proximity reaction, such as ortho ligation reaction (Proximity Ligation Assay, PLA) and ortho extension reaction (ProximityExtension Assay, PEA), are developed in recent years, ultra-sensitive plasma protein detection can be realized, advantages of no cleaning, compatibility with qPCR and the like are achieved, and the method is suitable for rapid detection and automation platform integration. PLA and PEA are both homogeneous systems, relying on diabodies to recognize targets to trigger nucleic acid signal amplification, but have substantial differences in their enzymatic reaction mechanisms. PLA relies on DNA ligase to achieve nucleic acid ligation, and reaction efficiency is often inhibited by interfering substances in complex samples such as plasma. The PEA replaces ligase with DNA polymerase, so that the reaction efficiency is improved, and the PEA is widely applicable to liquid phase environments such as plasma and the like. However, there are background noise problems caused by nonspecific binding of free probes in both PLA and PEA.
In order to reduce the background signal of the ortho-reaction system, two strategies exist at present, namely, a solid-phase PLA cleaning mode is adopted to reduce the background, and a non-specific protein sealing mode is adopted to reduce the background. For example, patent CN117431300a proposes a method for improving detection sensitivity by blocking the hybridization site between the probe and the capture probe, and assisting the washing operation. However, the method introduces multiple times of cleaning, and breaks down the essential advantages of no-cleaning and rapid detection of PLA. Patent CN103154266B discloses a protein-nucleic acid coupled blocking agent that prevents false positive signal amplification by binding to non-target proteins in a sample. Although these strategies alleviate the background noise problem to some extent, the former relies on solid phase systems and physical washing, and the latter lacks site specificity, and none is suitable for background control due to non-specific extension between free antibody-probe conjugates.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve the background noise problem caused by nonspecific extension between free antibody-probe conjugates in an ortho-extension reaction (PEA) system, the invention provides a blocker designed based on short-chain oligonucleotides, which can specifically occupy a pair of probe extension sites and realize effective background control in a liquid phase system which does not depend on washing.
The technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
an oligonucleotide blocker for a protein detection system comprising at least a pair of oligonucleotide sequences, each comprising a core blocking sequence and a support sequence at the 5 'and 3' ends of the core blocking sequence, respectively, only the core blocking sequence being partially or fully complementary to an extension site in a probe.
The invention designs an oligonucleotide blocker structure in a universal oligonucleotide single-chain form by analyzing the nucleic acid sequence of an extension site in an antibody-probe conjugate used by an ortho-extension method. The single strand of the oligonucleotide blocker has a core blocking sequence which is partially or completely complementary to the probe and a supporting sequence which is completely not complementary to the probe, wherein the core blocking sequence can occupy an extension site of a free antibody-probe conjugate without a target, so that the free antibody-probe conjugate without the target cannot be combined and extended mutually, thereby reducing the background of a PEA system (the affinity between a pair of antibody-probe conjugates which capture the target is stronger than that between the oligonucleotide blocker and the antibody-probe conjugate, and the oligonucleotide blocker can be replaced out in a competitive way so as to expose the extension site), and the supporting sequence can effectively prevent a secondary structure from being formed in a core region and relieve the reduction of pairing efficiency caused by spatial conformational stress, thereby enhancing the structural stability and functional persistence of the blocker.
In the oligonucleotide blocker of the present invention, the core blocking sequence is designed according to the nucleotide sequence of the probe used, and the nucleotide sequence of the probe is universal in the PEA system and is not changed according to the target analytes. Therefore, it is considered that the specific nucleotide sequence of the core blocking sequence of the present invention is not limited, and it is only necessary to design it based on the selected probe sequence under the conditions defined in the present invention.
Preferably, in the oligonucleotide blocking agent, the number of nucleotides of the core blocking sequence is 10 or less.
In the two oligonucleotide sequences belonging to the same pair, the lengths of the two core blocking sequences can be the same or different, and the length is preferably controlled below 10 nucleotides, and experiments show that when the length of the core blocking sequence is too large, the blocking effect is reduced, and the synthesis cost is increased.
Preferably, in the oligonucleotide blocker, at least 4 continuous complementary bases are arranged between the core blocking sequence and the extension site of the probe, namely 4-10 continuous complementary bases are arranged between the core blocking sequence and the extension site of the probe.
However, in the two oligonucleotide sequences of the same pair, the two core blocking sequences may be partially or completely complementary to the extension site of the probe independently, and the invention is not particularly limited thereto. In a preferred embodiment, the core blocking sequence of at least one oligonucleotide sequence is fully complementary to the extension site in the probe to provide a better blocking effect.
Preferably, in the oligonucleotide blocker, at least 4 consecutive complementary bases are present between the two core blocker sequences in the two oligonucleotide sequences belonging to the same pair, and the number of consecutive complementary bases between the two core blocker sequences is smaller than the number of consecutive complementary bases between the core blocker sequence and the extension site of the probe, and more preferably, 4 to 6 consecutive complementary bases are present between the two core blocker sequences.
The number of complementary bases between the core blocking sequences is typically less than the number of complementary bases between the core blocking sequences and the probes, which on the one hand reduces the likelihood of complementarity between the oligonucleotide blockers and on the other hand ensures preferential binding of the core blocking sequences to the extension sites of the probes.
Preferably, in the oligonucleotide blocker described above, the support sequence has at least 3 to 6 consecutive bases T.
The invention also provides a method for reducing the background of an ultrasensitive protein detection system based on ortho-position reaction, which comprises the following steps:
(1) Incubating the oligonucleotide blocker with an antibody-probe conjugate and a sample to be analyzed;
(2) Adding an extension solution, and carrying out extension reaction after uniformly mixing;
(3) And continuously adding the qPCR system, uniformly mixing, performing qPCR reaction, and analyzing the qPCR detection result.
It can be seen that the oligonucleotide blocker of the invention is very simple to use, can effectively reduce the background signal of an ortho-extension assay system without depending on specific enzymes or additional washing steps, thereby improving the sensitivity and specificity of detection, providing a new solution for high-throughput and ultrasensitive protein detection, and being suitable for analyzing a wide range of samples.
Preferably, in step (1) of the above method, the concentration ratio of the oligonucleotide blocker to the antibody-probe conjugate is (100-2000): 1, and the working concentration of the antibody-probe conjugate is 100-500pM;
in step (1), 10-20 min were incubated at 37 ℃.
In step (1) of the above method, the antibody-probe conjugate may be prepared by any method existing or unknown, and the present invention is not limited to this, and as an example of a specific embodiment, may be prepared by the following method:
(a) Activating the antibody by adopting a TCO-PEG4-NHS reagent to obtain an activated antibody;
(b) Activating the amino modified probe by adopting a Tz-PEG4-NHS reagent to obtain an activated probe;
(c) And coupling the activated antibody and the activated probe to obtain the antibody-probe conjugate. Preferably, in step (2) of the above application, the composition of the extension solution is 4. Mu.L of 10 Xbuffer, 4. Mu.L of 100. Mu.M equimolar mixture of four deoxynucleotide triphosphates, 2. Mu.L of 8000U/mL Bst elongase, 26. Mu.L of deionized water;
The extension reaction flow is that the extension is carried out for 20min at 37 ℃ and the inactivation is carried out for 20min at 80 ℃;
in step (3), the qPCR system consisted of 0.4. Mu.L of each qPCR detection primer, 0.2. Mu.L of 6-carboxyfluorescein, 10. Mu.L of commercial qPCR mixture containing fluorescent dye and polymerase, and 5. Mu.L of deionized water.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
(1) According to the invention, through analyzing the nucleic acid sequence of an extension site in an antibody-probe conjugate used in an ortho-extension method, a novel oligonucleotide blocker in a universal oligonucleotide single-chain form is designed, wherein the single chain of the oligonucleotide blocker is provided with a core blocking sequence which is partially or completely complementary with a probe and a supporting sequence which is not completely complementary with the probe, wherein the core blocking sequence can occupy the extension site of a free antibody-probe conjugate without a target, so that the free antibody-probe conjugate without the target cannot be combined and extended mutually, the nonspecific background of a PEA system is reduced (the affinity between a pair of antibody-probe conjugates capturing the target is stronger than that between the oligonucleotide blocker and the antibody-probe conjugate, so that the oligonucleotide blocker can be replaced by the competitively, the extension site is exposed), and the supporting sequence can not only prevent the core blocking sequence from forming a secondary structure, but also prevent the nucleic acid pairing efficiency from being reduced due to space distortion or rigid pulling force, and stabilize the blocking effect of the oligonucleotide blocker.

Detailed Description
The technical scheme of the invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.
Examples 1-7 design of oligonucleotide blockers
In an embodiment of the invention, an oligonucleotide blocker is provided, comprising at least one pair of oligonucleotide sequences, each of which consists of a core blocker sequence and a support sequence at the 5 'and 3' ends of the core blocker sequence, respectively, wherein only the core blocker sequence is partially or completely complementary to the extension site of the probe and the support sequence is not completely complementary to the extension site of the probe.
Wherein the number of nucleotides of the core blocking sequence is less than or equal to 10, and at least 4 continuous complementary bases are arranged between each core blocking sequence and an extension site in the probe.
In the two oligonucleotide sequences of the same pair, there are 4-6 consecutive complementary bases between the two core blocking sequences.
The support sequence consists of 3-6 consecutive bases T.
To describe the specific properties of the oligonucleotide blockers, the examples of the present invention, following the principles outlined above, design several pairs of oligonucleotide blockers on the basis of the following probes:
Probe-1:5 '-GTGAGGCCAGCGTCTTTTATATTAGGCCCTGGTATAGCAGACTGAAA-3' (SEQ ID No. 1);
probe-2:5 '-CGCAATGTCGCACATGATTCTCTGACGAACCGCTTTGCCTGATTTCAGTCT-3' (SEQ ID No. 2).
The nucleotide sequences of each pair of oligonucleotide blockers are shown in Table 1.

Oligonucleotide blocker 7 TTTTTTCAGTCTGCTATTTT(SEQ ID No.15) TTTAGACTGAAATTT(EQ ID No.16)
Note that the core blocking sequence is underlined and bolded, and the italics are bases complementary to the probe extension site.
The working principle of the oligonucleotide blocker of this example is shown in FIG. 1. It can be seen that the core blocking sequence of the oligonucleotide blocker first binds to the probe extension site on the antibody-probe conjugate, and when the sample to be analyzed is added, the antibody portion of the antibody-probe conjugate binds to the target, and at this time, the affinity between the pair of antibody-probe conjugates capturing the target is stronger than the affinity between the oligonucleotide blocker and the antibody-probe conjugate, so that the oligonucleotide blocker is competitively displaced to expose the extension site, and the extension site is extended after the two are bound, and the extension site of the free antibody-probe conjugate not capturing the target is still occupied by the oligonucleotide blocker, so that the free antibody-probe conjugate without the target cannot be bound to each other for extension, thereby reducing the background noise of the PEA system.
