Abstract

Specific and sensitive detection of base excision repair enzyme activity is essential to many fundamental biochemical process researches. Here, we propose a novel label-free homogeneous strategy for visualized uracil DNA glycosylase (UDG) activity assay based on nicking enzyme assisted signal amplification. In this method two hairpin probes were employed for the colorimetric detection, namely hairpin probe 1 (HP 1) carrying two uracil residues in the stem, and hairpin probe 2 (HP 2) containing a G-riched DNAzyme segment, and the recognition sequence as well as the cleavage site for the nicking enzyme. In the presence of UDG, the uracil bases in the stem of HP 1 can be specifically recognized and hydrolyzed by UDG, which leads to the destabilization of its stem containing abasic sites (AP sites), and then results in the opening of HP 1 to form a single strand. The opened HP 1 hybridizes with HP 2 to form a DNA duplex, which initiates the specific cleavage of HP 2 by the nicking enzyme, leading to the release of G-riched DNAzyme segments. As a result, HP 1 is released and able to hybridize with another HP 2 to induce the continuous cleavage of HP 2, generating enormous amount of G-riched DNAzyme segments. Finally, the G-riched DNAzyme segments bind hemin to form a catalytically active G-quadruplex-hemin DNAzyme which can catalyze the H2O2-mediated oxidation of 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS(2-)) to the colored ABTS(-), providing a visible signal for UDG activity detection. This assay exhibits several advantages such as simplicity, low-cost, high selectivity and desirable sensitivity, which shows great potential of providing a promising platform for convenient and visualized analysis of UDG or other biomolecules.

摘要

特异性和灵敏性检测碱基切除修复酶的活性对于许多基础生化过程的研究至关重要。在这里,我们提出了一种新的无标记均相策略,用于可视化尿嘧啶 DNA 糖基化酶(UDG)活性测定,基于切口酶辅助信号放大。在该方法中,使用了两个发夹探针进行比色检测,即发夹探针 1(HP 1)在茎部含有两个尿嘧啶残基,以及发夹探针 2(HP 2)含有富含 G 的 DNA 酶片段,以及识别序列和切口酶的切割位点。在 UDG 的存在下,HP 1 茎部中的尿嘧啶碱基可以被 UDG 特异性识别和水解,导致其含有碱基缺失(AP 位点)的茎部不稳定,然后导致 HP 1 打开形成单链。打开的 HP 1 与 HP 2 杂交形成 DNA 双链,这引发了切口酶对 HP 2 的特异性切割,导致富含 G 的 DNA 酶片段的释放。结果,HP 1 被释放并能够与另一个 HP 2 杂交,从而引发 HP 2 的连续切割,产生大量富含 G 的 DNA 酶片段。最后,富含 G 的 DNA 酶片段结合血红素形成催化活性的 G-四链体-血红素 DNA 酶,该酶可以催化 H2O2 介导的 2,2'-联氮双(3-乙基苯并噻唑啉-6-磺酸)(ABTS(2-))的氧化为有色 ABTS(-),为 UDG 活性检测提供可见信号。该测定法具有简单、低成本、高选择性和理想的灵敏度等优点,为方便和可视化分析 UDG 或其他生物分子提供了有前途的平台。
