Abstract

The invention provides a nucleic acid methylation cytosine conversion method. The method is characterized by comprising the following steps: (1) carrying out TET enzyme oxidation treatment on a DNA or RNA sample; (2) adding pyridine borane into a reaction system for treatment; and (3) recovering DNA or RNA in the reaction system by magnetic beads. According to the present invention, the whole process of the nucleic acid methylation cytosine conversion method only comprises three steps such as TET enzyme oxidation, pyridine borane treatment and DNA magnetic bead recovery, such that the conversion efficiency of the TAPS is improved, the operation difficulty and the operation flow of the TAPS are simplified, and the nucleic acid methylation cytosine conversion method is named as Enhanced TET-assisted pyridine borane sequencing (eTAPS), the eTAPS has the advantages of high conversion rate, small DNA damage, simplicity in operation, convenience in automation and the like, and in addition, we find that the eTAPS also has efficient and sensitive detection efficiency in RNA cytosine methylation. Therefore, the eTAPS technology has an important value in nucleic acid methylation detection, especially in the fields of tumor early screening and disease diagnosis.

Description

technical field [0001] The patent of the invention relates to a nucleic acid methylation cytosine conversion method, which belongs to the field of biotechnology. Background technique [0002] DNA methylation is an important research direction in the field of epigenetics. Cytosine methylation (5mC) is the most common modified base on DNA, accounting for 1%-8% of all cytosines, some specific cytosine sites such as Dam methylation sites in bacteria or eukaryotic The ratio of methylation modification at the cytosine site in the CpG island can be as high as nearly 100%, so 5mC is also called the "fifth base". DNA methylation is the main way for bacteria to identify and distinguish internal and external DNA, and it is also an identity marker for bacteria to identify themselves. In recent years, a large number of studies have shown that the abnormal level of DNA methylation is closely related to tumorigenesis, deterioration and cell carcinogenesis. Therefore, detection of cfDNA ...
