摘要:
The present invention relates to a new skin gene card for genetic test, a method for acquiring DNA and RNA and performing various genetic tests using the same, and practical applications thereof. More specifically, the inventors of the present invention have developed a skin gene card capable of acquiring samples from human skin, hair or mucosa simply, safely and quickly and enabling stable long-term storage and transport of DNA and RNA included in the acquired sample at room temperature. Various genetic tests may performed using the acquired DNA and RNA, including polymerase chain reaction (PCR), reverse transcription (RT)-PCR, real-time PCR, sequencing, hybridization, DNA chip analysis, single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) assay, gene mutation assay, promoter methylation assay, gene expression assay, etc. The genetic skin test result may be utilized for disease prognosis, nutrigenomic test, pharmacogenomic test, forensic test such as personal identification, diagnosis of genetic diseases, diagnosis of skin diseases, or the like. In addition, through an objective evaluation of the skin or hair condition, a personalized cosmetic and skin care system may be established for practical application in beauty care, cosmetology, dermatology, and clinical practice.

Disclosed is a DNA chip (or DNA microarray) on which probes complementarily binding to the nucleic acids of 44 types of HPV, which is the main cause of cervical cancer and the most common cause of sexually transmitted diseases, are spotted, a genotyping kit including same and a genotyping method using same. In accordance with the present disclosure, all the 44 types of HPV invading the genitalia can be detected and coinfection by more than one type of HPV can be diagnosed accurately. The sensitivity and specificity of HPV genotyping is close to 100% and a number of samples can be tested quickly. The present disclosure is very useful in predicting cervical cancer and precancerous lesions.

The present disclosure relates to a Y-shaped nucleotide probe having two probe parts in one body, which provides improved sensitivity, specificity and accuracy in genotype and genetic analysis and thus is widely applicable to diagnosis and a variant thereof (d- or b-shaped probe), and a DNA microarray, a kit and a genetic analysis method using the same. The Y-shaped probe comprises a left-side probe part, a left-side stem part, a linker part, a right-side stem part and a right-side probe part. The DNA microarray of the present disclosure can improve accuracy of test by testing the same gene simultaneously or by testing two different target genes at once. Especially, since both the target gene and the control gene can be tested simultaneously from one spot, error can be reduced, quantitative analysis is possible and standardization is easy. The Y-shaped probe of the present disclosure may be widely used for genotyping, analysis of gene expression, analysis of mutation or SNP, diagnosis and prediction of diseases, determination of therapeutic regimen, or the like.

Disclosed are a DNA chip and a kit capable of quickly and accurately detecting or genotyping the highly prevalent and important eleven microbes causing sexually transmitted diseases (STD) Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Chlamydia trachomatis, Ureaplasma urealyticum, Mycoplasma genitalium, Mycoplasma hominis, syphilis-causing treponema, pallidum, chancroid-causing Haemophilus ducreyi, genital herpes-causing herpes simplex virus 1 and 2, human papillomavirus (HPV) and Trichomonas vaginalis and three related organisms Candida albicans, Gardnerella vaginalis and coliform bacteria and analyzing antibiotic resistance against tetracycline and lactam antibiotics, and a method for detecting or genotyping using the same. According to the present invention, the presence, genotype and antibiotic resistance of the fourteen organisms can be analyzed quickly and accurately from a DNA sample. With excellent sensitivity, specificity, reproducibility and accuracy of the 14 STD-causing and related microorganisms may be automatically identified quickly and accurately from multiple samples, and selection of antibiotics may be aided.
