    摘要: The method according to the invention concerns in particular a method for the quantification of methylated DNA. For this purpose, the DNA to be examined is first transformed such that unmethylated cytosine is converted to uracil while 5-methylcytosine remains unchanged. Subsequently, the transformed DNA is amplified in the presence of a pair of real-time probes. For this, a probe is constructed, which is specific for the methylated or for the unmethylated state of the DNA, and a probe, which binds methylation-unspecifically to the amplificate. The ratio of the signal intensities of the probes or the CT values allows for the calculation of the degree of methylation of the examined DNA. The method according to the invention is suited particularly for the diagnosis and prognosis of cancer and other diseases associated with a change in the methylation status, as well as, prediction of adverse for side-effects of pharmaceuticals.

    摘要: The invention refers to a method for providing a decontaminated template nucleic acid for enzymatic amplification reactions suitable for DNA methylation analysis. This method is characterized by the following steps: a) incubating a nucleic acid with a chemical reagent or an enzyme-containing solution, whereby the unmethylated cytosine bases are converted into uracil bases, b) mixing the template nucleic acid from step a) with the components required for an enzyme-mediated amplification reaction, including at least two oligonucleotides, whereby at least one of said oligonucleotides comprises i) at least one sequence part that hybridizes with a sequence of the template nucleic acid to be amplified, and ii) at least one sequence part that constitutes a recognition site for a DNA cleaving enzyme that cleaves DNA downstream of said recognition site and c) adding to this mixture a DNA cleaving enzyme, which specifically binds to the at least one sequence part that is a recognition site, and d) incubating the mixture, whereby nucleic acids containing said recognition site for a DNA cleaving enzyme are degraded.

    摘要: The following invention concerns a method for investigating cytosine methylation by means of DNA repair enzymes. Here, the DNA is first converted so that unmethylated cytosines are converted to uracil, while 5-methylcytosine remains unchanged. Then the DNA is hybridized to oligonucleotides, whereby hybrids will be formed with or without erroneous base pairings, in each case depending on the methylation status of the DNA. Following this, the erroneously paired hybrids will be cleaved by repair enzymes. Then the methylation status of the DNA can be determined in different ways. The method according to the invention is particularly suitable for the diagnosis and prognosis of cancer disorders and other diseases associated with a change of the methylation status as well as for predicting undesired drug effects.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for analyzing cytosine methylations in DNA sequences, according to which non-methylated cytosines are first converted into uracil while 5-methylcytosine remains unmodified. The DNA is then amplified by means of a polymerase and at least one primer whose 5 end is connected to a probe via a linker. The probe is intramolecularly hybridized onto the amplified products in accordance with the methylation state of the DNA, hybridization being detectable via different detection systems. The inventive method is particularly suitable for diagnosing and predicting cancer diseases and other diseases associated with a modification of the methylation state as well as for predicting undesired effects of medicaments.
