Problems solved by technology

However, there are many defects in these two methods. For example, because the target DNA cannot be reused, the fluorophores brought out are less and difficult to be detected, and cause problems such as poor detection accuracy and excessive waste.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for detecting a (CAG)n repeated sequence by utilizing RNase H and belongs to the technical field of molecular biology. According to the method, a (CAG)n is mixed witha fluorescein-labeled complementary RNA aptamer; enzyme digestion reaction of restrictive endonuclease RNase H is executed: the mixed solution of (CAG)n and the aptamer with a solution of restrictiveendonuclease RNase H uniformly mixed for incubation; fluorescence detection is executed: graphene oxide is added into the solution subjected to the enzyme digestion reaction, uniformly mixing is executed for incubation to obtain a solution to be detected, and the fluorescence intensity is detected by using a fluorescence spectrophotometer. The method is simple to operate, rapid in detection and high in sensitivity, and the detection limit of (CAG)n can reach 1.12*10-10 mol / L, and it is detected that the DNA sequence containing (CAG)n has very high specificity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for detecting (CAG) n repeating sequences by using RNase H, and belongs to the technical field of molecular biology. Background technique [0002] Neurological diseases such as Huntington's disease are neurodegenerative diseases that mainly affect motor function. The pathological changes are mainly the degeneration of the medium-sized spiny neurons in the striatum, especially the death of the striatal projection γ-aminobutyric acid neurons. The mutant gene is located on human chromosome 4, and there is a repeat sequence of trinucleotide CAG at the 17th codon downstream of the exon start codon ATG. Huntington's disease is caused by the abnormality of the CAG repeat sequence in this gene. Caused by extended mutations, and this repeated sequence is also considered a biomarker for the detection of the disease. [0003] Existing methods for detecting the repeating state of CAG sequences use nano-gold-DNA sensors or graphe...
