    摘要: Primers and methods for adapter-mediated multiplex amplification of the IS6110 insertion element of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) and the 16S ribosomal gene of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, useful for simultaneously detecting and/or identifying species of the M. tuberculosis complex and other clinically relevant Mycobacterium species. Multiplex Strand Displacement Amplification (SDA) is used in a single amplification reaction which is capable of simultaneously identifying M. tuberculosis and providing a screen for substantially all of the clinically relevant species of Mycobacteria. Also disclosed are methods for adapter-mediated multiplex amplification of multiple target sequences and a single internal control sequence for determination of sample efficacy or quantitation of the targets. In a preferred embodiment, an internal control sequence is included in the amplification reaction and coamplified with the IS6110 and 16S target sequences as an indication of sample amplification activity or to quantitate the initial amount of target sequences in the sample.

    摘要: The invention employs an unlabeled signal primer comprising a 5′ adapter sequence for detection of variations in nucleic acid target sequences. The detection system further comprises a reporter probe, the 3′ end of which hybridizes to the complement of the 5′ adapter sequence of the signal primer to produce a 5′ overhang. Polymerase is used to fill in the overhang and synthesize the complement of the 5′ overhang of the reporter probe. Synthesis of the reporter probe complement is detected, either directly or indirectly, as an indication of the presence of the target.

    摘要: The early prediction or diagnosis of sepsis advantageously allows for clinical intervention before the disease rapidly progresses beyond initial stages to the more severe stages, such as severe sepsis or septic shock, which are associated with high mortality. Early prediction or diagnosis is accomplished by comparing an individual's profile of biomarker expression to profiles obtained from one or more control, or reference, populations, which may include a population that develops sepsis. Recognition of features in the individual's biomarker profile that are characteristic of the onset of sepsis allows a clinician to diagnose the onset of sepsis from a bodily fluid isolated from the individual at a single point in time. The necessity of monitoring the patient over a period of time is, therefore, avoided, advantageously allowing clinical intervention before the onset of serious symptoms of sepsis. Further, because the biomarker expression is assayed for its profile, identification of the particular biomarkers is unnecessary. The comparison of an individual's biomarker profile to biomarker profiles of appropriate reference populations likewise can be used to diagnose SIRS in the individual.

    摘要: The present invention provides methods for detecting and identifying sequence variations in a nucleic acid sequence of interest using a detector primer. It has been found that the reduced efficiency of primer extension by DNA polymerases when the 3′ end of a primer does not hybridize perfectly with the target can be adapted for use as a means for distinguishing or identifying the nucleotide in the target which is at the site where the diagnostic mismatch between the detector primer and the target occurs. The detector primer hybridizes to the sequence of interest and is extended with polymerase. The efficiency of detector primer extension is detected as an indication of the presence and/or identity of the sequence variation in the target. The inventive methods make use of nucleotide mismatches at or near the 3′ end of the detector primer to discriminate between the nucleotide sequence of interest and a second nucleotide sequence which may occur at that same site in the target. The methods are particularly well suited for detecting and identifying single nucleotide differences between a target sequence of interest (e.g., a mutant allele of a gene) and a second nucleic acid sequence (e.g., a wild type allele for the same gene).

    摘要: Detector nucleic acids are employed for detection of nucleic acid target sequences by fluorescence quenching mechanisms. The detector nucleic acid comprises at least two oligonucleotides and is partially single-stranded and partially double-stranded. One of the two dyes of a donor/acceptor dye pair is linked to the first oligonucleotide and the other is linked to a second oligonucleotide such that they are in close spatial proximity when the first and second oligonucleotides are base-paired and donor fluorescence is quenched. A single second oligonucleotide may be hybridized to the first oligonucleotide or multiple second oligonucleotides may be hybridized to the first oligonucleotide and to each other, forming a junction structure comprising multiple donor/acceptor dye pairs. The detector oligonucleotide retains its partially single-stranded and partially double-stranded conformation in the absence of target. In the presence of target, however, the second oligonucleotide(s) of the detector nucleic acid is/are completely or partially displaced from the first, increasing the distance between the donor and acceptor dyes and causing a change in fluorescence which may be detected as an indication of the presence of the target sequence.

    摘要: A detector oligonucleotide having a sequence which forms an intramolecularly base-paired secondary structure is described for use in detecting nucleic acid target sequences and target sequence amplification. The detector oligonucleotide is further modified by linkage to two dyes which form a donor/acceptor dye pair. The two dyes are positioned on the detector oligonucleotide such that they are in close spatial proximity in the base-paired, folded secondary structure, thereby causing quenching of donor fluorescence. The detector oligonucleotide may optionally further comprise a restriction endonuclease recognition site (RERS) which remains partially or entirely single-stranded in the base-paired secondary structure. The RERS is flanked by the two dyes. In the presence of target, the base-paired secondary structure is unfolded or linearized, increasing the distance between the donor and acceptor dyes and causing a change in fluorescence of the donor and/or the acceptor. If an RERS is present, it is rendered double-stranded in the presence of target, allowing cleavage or nicking by a restriction endonuclease and separation of the two dyes onto separate nucleic acid fragments. This may further contribute to the magnitude of the change in fluorescence.
