Definitions
- the invention relates to methods and devices for the synthesis and analysis of carrier-bound arrays of oligomers, in particular of primer pairs for PCR (polymerase chain reaction - polymerase chain reaction), and carriers with oligomers.
- the invention relates to methods and devices for the parallel synthesis of complex oligomer, in particular oligonucleotide, libraries.
- oligomer library or “oligonucleotide library” here means the entirety of many different oligomers, peptides, nucleotides or ribonucleotides bound to defined locations on a support, the different oligomers or - (ribo) nucleotides should be arranged as compact as possible. Before molecular libraries arise, especially through the combinatorial synthesis of a limited number of monomers.
- complex denotes molecular libraries with more than 10 2 different representatives, but in particular molecular libraries with more than 10 4 different representatives.
- PCR array denotes the entirety of many different oligonucleotide pairs with a free 3'OH end that are bound at defined locations on a support. These primer pairs have the property of binding suitable template DNA, which results in an amplificate which is bound to the carrier in a location-defined manner depending on the Prime ⁇ aar under PCR conditions.
- a number of methods for combinatorial synthesis of molecular libraries are already known. These include printing processes for combinatorial synthesis, in which liquids are applied to a carrier in a defined location.
- An example of this process is the inkjet printer (patent application WO 97 44134 A, Incyte Pharmaceutical Inc., 1997; or US5449754, Nishioka, 1995).
- Another method for combinatorial synthesis uses a compact disc as a carrier (WO 98 12559 A, Demers, 1998).
- Another method uses a controllable chip as a carrier (US5667667, Southern, 1996).
- Another method uses a color laser printer with modified clay particles (PCT / DE99 / 03982).
- lithographic methods are known (US5424186, Very large scale immobilized polymer synthesis, Fodor et al, 1991), in which, sequentially:
- oligonucleotides in particular prime pairs for PCR
- a support with the aim of a highly parallelizable PCR US5641658, US6060288 and US6090592.
- the great advantage of these methods is that the prime pairs are covalently coupled to the carrier.
- the PCR products are also coupled to the carrier with the primers so that no cross-contamination from primers or PCR products can occur. This ensures that different PCR reactions do not have to be separated from one another by separate reaction spaces. This goal is very elegantly achieved solely by the spatially separated coupling of prime pairs to a carrier.
- ohgonucleotides in particular but also other types of oligomers, have a polarity is given little attention in the inventions mentioned.
- Ohgonucleotides have e.g. a 5'OH end and a 3'OH end, peptides have an amino and a carboxy terminal end.
- This polarity also applies to each individual building block of the oligomer, e.g. Nuleotides in the case of the ohgonucleotides or amino acids in the case of the peptides.
- the ohgonucleotides bound to the support must have a free 3'OH end, since they then only serve as a substrate for a polymerase.
- the present invention provides an incredibly simple solution as to how these synthetic artifacts can be cleaned off in situ and thus in a highly parallel manner.
- the invention is therefore suitable for in-situ cleaning of the desired end products on a carrier, in particular in the case of a complex array. In many cases, this is the prerequisite for the sensible use of arrays, since many observable effects are disturbed by contaminants.
- the invention causes the oligomers anchored to the support to be “turned over” so that the end initially anchored to the support, in particular the 3′OH end of an oligonucleotide, is subsequently freely accessible for a suitable enzymatic activity.
- the invention thus simultaneously opens up a particularly simple way of producing PCR arrays (arrays by Prime ⁇ aaren).
- a major technical advantage here is that, according to the invention, the particularly easily accessible components last coupled to the carrier are cross-linked. This largely prevents steric problems caused by the possibly very bulky side protection groups. As the length of the oligomers built up on the carrier increases, these make it more difficult to access the "linker” which connects the oligomer to the carrier. This is a problem which is particularly well known to the person skilled in the art if the "linker” itself has to play the decisive role in "turning over” the synthesized oligomer, as described, for example, in US Pat. No. 5,555,215: "Polymer reversal on solid surfaces” becomes.
- This invention is intended, in particular, to enable a synthesis of prime-pairs with a free 3'-OH end which are suitable for a subsequent PCR analysis and which are formed as a pair by the combinatorial synthesis at a defined location on a support in each case.
- An alternative method uses monomers where the temporary protecting group is located at the 3'OH end.
- the use of these monomers gives rise to ohgonucleotides with a free 3'OH end which bind to the support with their 5'OH end.
- Monomers of this type for oligonucleotide synthesis are sold by Glensearch (www.glenres.com). So far, this type of monomers have been used for special applications such as more stable antisense ohgonucleotides, or for the synthesis of double strands that hybridize in parallel. Among other things, this is because these monomers are very expensive.
- the object of the invention is to provide improved methods and devices for the synthesis or analysis of oligomers on a support, in particular prime pairs for PCR (polymerase chain reaction), and improved supports with oligomers purified in situ ,

- Fig. 4d the installation or storage of a for the detection of
- PCR product 27 serving fluorescent dye 25 into the precisely defined PCR product 27, which can be multiplied by further PCR cycles,
- the covalent bond 8 via the 3'OH end of the synthesized ohgonucleotides the carrier 9 is split off in part, preferably in a major part of the synthesized ohgonucleotides or oligoribonucleotides 2, so that free 3'OH ends 3 are formed and, after these 3'OH ends 3 have been split off from the carrier 9, part, preferably a predominant part of the synthesized ohgonucleotides or oligoribonucleotides 2 can bind covalently to the carrier 9 due to the cross-links 7 at the 5'OH end 5,
- the synthesis artefact 28 which was formed in the synthesis and bound to the support 9 was provided with a "cap" 29 during the synthesis,
- oligonucleotides (2) are mentioned in the description of FIGS. 1 to 7.
- the description also applies to other oligomers (2), as can already be seen from the labeling table.
- nucleotides these are the 3'OH end and the 5'OH end, in the case of amino acids the COOH group and the NH 2 group, for other monomers there are other groups.
- the invention relates to all of these different combinatorial syntheses.
- the invention not only enables the synthesis of oligonucleotides (2) with a free 3'OH end (3), but also the in situ purification of carrier-bound oligomers (2).
- Most of these synthesis artefacts 28 result from the fact that after the temporary protective groups (4) have been split off, not all reactive groups react with a new monomer.
- the temporary protective groups 4 (an example of such a group)
- the protecting group is 4 ', 4 , -dimethoxytrityl chloride (DMTr)) at the 5'-OH end 5 of the ohgonucleotides 2 and then the now free 5'-OH ends 5 cross-linked via cross-links 7. This is done in a manner known per se.
- a second non-permanent protective group 20 for example 2-acetyl-5, 5-dimethyl-l, 3- cleaved cyclohexanedione, (Dde)
- the second non-permanent protective group 20 can be introduced during the above-mentioned crosslinking of the free 5'-OH ends, or else it could have been applied to the support 9 prior to the synthesis of the first array 1 of oligonucleotides 2 bound at certain locations 10.
- a reactive group 22 for example a hydroxyl group or an amino group
- a second array of precisely defined oligonucleotides 2 can be constructed, the free 5'-OH ends 5 of which are cross-linked as described above (cross-links 7). This creates an array of Prime ⁇ aaren 21 defined sequence, which are each defined precisely.
- the permanent protective groups 6 are separated in a fourth step in a manner known per se. ten, the selection of suitable "cell phones" 8 ensuring that the majority of the ohgonucleotides 2 are now present with the free 3'-OH end 3.
- the further anchoring 8 of the ohgonucleotides 2 is preferably achieved by incomplete cleavage of the above-mentioned mobile phones 8, for example by derivatizing the carrier 9 with a mixture of mobile phones 8, part of which is split off under the selected conditions, while a preferably smaller proportion of the mobile phones 8 remains covalently connected to the carrier 9 under the selected conditions.
- ohgonucleotides have free 3'-OH ends instead of a free 5'-OH end and thus represent a template-dependent potential substrate for DNA polymerases
- the latter purification of the only exemplary and non-limiting ohgonucleotides has great advantages in practice and can also be used without problems with other oligomers, such as, for example, RNA or peptides, instead of with oligonucleotides.
- the majority of the synthesis has artifacts 28 no free 5'-OH end and is therefore not cross-linked in the first step at 7 described above.
- the fourth step described together with the oligonucleotides cross-linked at the 5'OH end, most of the synthesis artifacts 28 are also cleaved off and can then be washed away from the support.
- the Prime ⁇ aare 21 described can serve a precisely defined "solid phase PCR". Compared to conventional PCR methods, thousands of PCR reactions can be carried out very easily in a reaction vessel.
- Fig. 4a shows how template DNA 23 at precisely defined locations 10 hybridizes to a complementary primer 2.

- FIG. 4b shows how, after the DNA double strand has melted, that which is shown in FIG. 4a on the 3'OH end 3 of the primer 2 synthesized DNA single strand 26 hybridized to the complementary counter strand polymer 24.
- 4c illustrates the formation of a double-stranded PCR product 27 after renewed DNA polymerization.
- a fluorescent dye 25, which is used to detect the precisely defined PCR product 27 that can be amplified by further PCR cycles, can be incorporated or incorporated as indicated in FIG. 4d.
- a method for the synthesis of a carrier-bound array 1 of oligonucleotides 2 with free 3'OH ends 3 is described below with reference to FIG.
- the temporary protective group 4 is split off from the 5'OH end 5 after the combinatorial synthesis has taken place. Subsequently, the free 5'OH ends 5 are connected by crosslinking 7 before the permanent protective groups 6 are split off.
- the covalent bond 8 is cleaved via the 3'OH end of the synthesized ohgonucleotides to the carrier 9 in part, preferably in the majority, of the synthesized ohgonucleotides or oligoribonucleotides 2, so that free 3'OH- Ends 3 arise.
- the carrier 9 part, preferably a predominant part, of the synthesized ohgonucleotides or oligoribonucleotides 2 binds on account of the mentioned cross-linking 7 at the 5'OH end 5 covalently 8 to the support 9.
- FIG. 6 schematically shows a device for parallel analysis of PCR reactions, in which the metallic heating block 11 present in most commercially available PCR machines has been milled planar, so that a close contact 12 with a planar array 1 of oligonucleotides 2 with free ones 3'OH ends 3 can arise.
- an array 1 of oligonucleotides 2 is covered with an interchangeable, transparent, in particular also transparent to UV light planar film or disk 13, which can be fixed on the array 1, so that the evaporation of the reaction buffer is avoided.
- the array 1 is irradiated with oligonucleotides 2 with excitation light 14, which is particularly suitable for exciting the fluorescent dye 15 associated with the double-stranded DNA 25 formed ,
- the fluorescent dye 15 is excited by an excitation light source 16 mounted above the array 1 of oligonucleotides 2.
- a fluorescent light filter 18 is mounted between the detection unit 17, which in a particularly advantageous manner consists of a digital camera, and the said array 1 of oligonucleotides 2, which filters the stimulus. hides light 14, but lets the emitted fluorescent light 19 pass.
- the data recorded by the detection unit 17 are transferred to an essentially commercially available computer and subjected to an image analysis there.
- the device described for the parallel analysis of PCR reactions is particularly suitable for the parallelized "online" detection of PCR reactions.
- FIG. 7 schematically describes the m situ purification of oligomers 2 bound to support 9 at 8.
- the synthesis artefact 28 which was formed in the synthesis and was bound to support 9 at 8 was provided with a "cap” 29 during the synthesis, so that this molecule 28 cannot participate in the formation of cross-links 7 between the free ends 5.
- the synthesis artifact 28 can be washed away, which results in a (partial) in-situ purification of the oligomer 2.
- the percentage on the support 9 in the case of 8 bound oligomers 2 and thus also the degree of purification is determined by the choice of the "cell phones" 8. At this point it should be pointed out that this in situ cleaning method is suitable for all combinatorial syntheses.
- said array of oligonucleotides is irradiated with excitation light, in particular with UV light, which is particularly suitable for exciting a fluorescent dye, in particular etliidium bromide.
- excitation light in particular with UV light
- excitation of the fluorescent dye is done by an excitation light source mounted above the array of oligonucleotides.
- a fluorescent light filter is installed between the detection unit, which in a particularly advantageous manner consists of a digital camera, and the array of oligonucleotides mentioned, which filters out the excitation light but allows the emitted fluorescent light to pass.
- Materials produced according to the invention include the molecular libraries produced by the methods, materials or devices mentioned, in particular oligonucleotide libraries with free 3'OH ends. Characteristic of these oligonucleotide libraries is
- oligonucleotide libraries mentioned are used for very simple PCR analysis, in particular of complex template mixtures.
- the prime sequences of suitable sequences synthesized thereon multiply regions of preferably a large number of different genes of pathogens, so that it can be diagnosed at the same time whether an infection with one of these pathogens is present or not.
- thermostable enzymatic activity for example a helical cheese, a gyrase or topoisomerase together with ATP
- a preferably thermostable enzymatic activity for example a helical cheese, a gyrase or topoisomerase together with ATP
- a preferably thermostable enzymatic activity for example a helical cheese, a gyrase or topoisomerase together with ATP
- a preferably thermostable enzymatic activity for example a helical cheese, a gyrase or topoisomerase together with ATP
- the prime pairs of suitable sequences synthesized thereon reproduce regions of preferably as many human firsts as possible (expressed sequence tags), so that so-called "expression profiling” can be carried out after the hybridization of complex cDNA. It is analyzed in parallel which and how many mRNAs (and thus the cDNAs derived from them) are expressed in a preferably human tissue or a preferably human cell line.
- This type of array is particularly suitable for comparing several complex cDNAs with one another and thus for identifying comparatively up-regulated or down-regulated genes.
- Genomic DNA can also be analyzed with this type of array.
- a quantitative PCR can be used to find out, for example, which genome areas are homozygous or heterozygous dele- with the aim of assigning these areas to a genetic disease.
- such an array serves for the detection of polymorphisms and thus z.
- a computer program searches the sequences of the human chromosome 22 available in the databases for restriction sites which are 100 to 300 bp apart.
- the same program then designs Prime ⁇ aare, each of which already contains one of the two restriction sites mentioned in the primer sequence, but the other restriction control only in the DNA multiplied by the Prime ⁇ aar.
- Prime ⁇ aare design of these prime-pairs
- an array of prime-pairs is produced using the methods described here, the individual prime-pairs preferably being in a linear arrangement which corresponds to their position on the human chromosome 22.
- a highly parallelized PCR is then carried out with such an array as described, typically comparing the results obtained with the genomic DNA of the father, mother and child as a template.
- the restriction digest results in a precisely defined position by the location of the prime pair. the diffuse courtyard.
- This courtyard is created by the diffusing, amplified PCR amplificate, for example, stained with ethidium bromide. If only one chromosome codes both restriction sites, a sharply delimited nucleus of carrier-bound PCR amplificate remains within the comparatively weaker diffuse courtyard. If the mentioned second restriction site is missing on both chromosomes, the mentioned courtyard is missing after the restriction digest. If the images of father, mother and child are now graphically superimposed (e.g. by assigning false colors), the chromosomal areas of the child can be assigned very easily and at the same time very precisely to either the father or the mother.
- the mentioned arrays of prime-pairs can be reused if, after the PCR reaction, the filters are digested with suitable restriction endonucleases and then heated and non-carrier-bound DNA is then washed away.
- the prerequisite is that the 3 'ends of the primers used contain one of several suitable recognition sequences for the restriction endonucleases mentioned. This method is particularly useful if two different complex templates are compared with one another, whereby comparative quantitative data are to be obtained and, as far as possible, variations in the filter production are to be avoided.
- a special feature of the arrays mentioned is an unprecedented sensitivity to analysis, since the measuring principle of these arrays is based on the poly merase chain reaction (PCR) based, which is much more sensitive compared to the hybridizations previously used.
- PCR poly merase chain reaction
- RNA-dependent DNA polymerase can be used instead for an RNA template.
- arrays can in principle be used, for example, for the parallel sequencing of complex templates and for highly parallelized polymerase chain reactions. The reaction conditions required are known to the person skilled in the art.
- two defined ohgonucleotides are synthesized in a site-defined manner.
- one of the primers of the prime pair can be presented in a significantly smaller amount compared to the other primer, so that predominantly single-stranded DNA is produced after a few propagation cycles. If ddNTPs are added at this stage, a family of single-stranded oligonucleotides is formed, which can be analyzed by mass analysis, for example. sens spectrometer enables sequence determination of the increased template DNA.
- the analysis of the individual fluorescent points which are assigned to the corresponding location-defined prime pairs can be carried out after the end of the PCR reaction or, in a particularly advantageous manner
- the mentioned arrays of Prime ⁇ aaren can be reused if, after the PCR reaction, the filters are digested with suitable restriction endonucleases and non-carrier-bound DNA is then washed away.
- the prerequisite is that the 3'OH ends of the primers used contain one of several suitable recognition sequences for the restriction endonucleases mentioned. This procedure is particularly useful if two different ones complex templates are compared with each other. In such analyzes, comparative quantitative data should be obtained as far as possible and, as far as possible, variations in the filter production should be avoided.
- a particularly advantageous application of the arrays mentioned results in the almost completely automated parallel diagnosis of many different diseases, in particular infectious diseases with the help of PCR.
- the reliability of diagnosis for the individual diseases can also be significantly increased by analyzing not just one, but many disease-specific prime pairs.
- Another particularly advantageous application of the arrays mentioned is to create an expression pattern, in particular a comparative expression pattern.
- the mRNA of a tissue or a cell line is rewritten in a manner known per se into (highly complex) cDNA, which in turn serves as a template for the arrays mentioned. If these arrays now carry prime pairs which can reproduce human EST sequences (Expressed Sequence Tag), then the EST sequences present in the mRNA or cDNA mentioned are site-defined and increased almost quantitatively.
- a comparison of tumor tissue with the surrounding normal tissue reveals EST sequences that are comparatively strongly or weakly expressed in the tumor tissue. Due to the tremendous sensitivity of the PCR technique, even weakly expressed genes can be analyzed and comparatively small amounts of templates can be used are used, which means that these filters are far superior to the current state of the art.
- Another particularly advantageous application of the arrays mentioned is the assignment of homozygous or heterozygous deleted areas to somatic genetic diseases and hereditary diseases. This can be found out using the quantitative PCR described in more detail above. For this purpose, an array with suitable prime-pairs must be used, which duplicate the sequence regions of the genes which encode the ESTs mentioned.
- a suitable carrier with free amino groups (or hydroxyl groups) is made by standard methods. If not already present in the first step, a suitable linker is synthesized on the free amino groups (or hydroxyl groups) with the aid of standard synthesis familiar to the person skilled in the art under anhydrous conditions.
- This linker preferably consists of Dde-Fmoc-Lys, one amino group of which is protected by a frnoc protecting group and the other of which is protected by a Dde- Protection group are blocked.
- the frnoc protecting group is cleaved at 25 ° C. for 10 minutes with 20% piperidine in DMF, ie under conditions in which the Dde protecting group remains stable.
- one or two RNA phosphoramidites are activated with the aid of tetrazole using techniques known to the person skilled in the art and coupled to the support. A small proportion of less than 5% of the corresponding DNA phosphoramidites can be added during the coupling reaction during the coupling reaction.
- the support is printed with 4 different toners which contain the 4 different phosphoramidite monomers.
- the phosphoramidites are activated with the aid of tetrazole, coupled to the support, uncoupled monomers washed away and then the DMTr protective group is cleaved from the 5'OH end of the growing oligonucleotide. Repetition of this process leads to a combinatorial synthesis of oligonucleotides.
- the DMTr protective group is cleaved from the 5'OH end and the free 5'OH groups, for example crosslinked with crosslinked cellulose acetate or EDTA, or triethylene teframine hexaacetic acid and N, N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) under conditions known to the person skilled in the art.
- DCC triethylene teframine hexaacetic acid and N, N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide
- the prior introduction of an amino group at the 5'OH end is particularly suitable for this. This can be achieved, for example, with the 5 'amino modifier 5 (Eurogentec; # 10190502).
- RNA phosphoramidites mentioned can be printed on as phosphoramidite clay articles or else distributed uniformly in coupling buffer over the support. As described above, a small proportion of the corresponding DNA phosphoramidites can be added during the coupling reaction during the coupling reaction.
- an array of oligonucleotides is synthesized and cross-linked at the 5'OH end. Finally, all protective groups are cleaved with ammonia for 45 minutes at 55 ° C to 70 ° C, the support is washed with acetonitrile and dried, so that the end result is a support with different defined areas, each representing a pair of oligonucleotides.
- the pairs of oligonucleotides represent sequences for the duplication of approximately 50,000 different human ESTs.
- the 3'0H ends of the ohgonucleotides are cleaved from the support with RNase or cleaved under alkaline conditions.
- mRNA is obtained using a technique known to the person skilled in the art, this is transcribed into cDNA and used as a complex template for hybridization to the array described under A).
- thermophilic DNA polymerases are then added in a suitable buffer and the PCR reaction is started.
- a curve of the PCR reaction is created for each defined Prime ⁇ aar, which enables each of the ESTs defined by the Prime ⁇ aare to be assigned a value characterizing this curve.
- the values obtained with cDNA from a patient's tumor tissue and the values obtained with cDNA from the surrounding normal tissue are compared with one another. This leads to the identification of genes that are over or under-expressed in the tumor tissue compared to the normal tissue.
- Another application example is the parallel PCR diagnostics of pathogens.
