Definitions
- BACKGROUND Central to the field of microbiology is the ability to positively identify microorganisms at the level of genus, species or serotype. Correct identification is not only an essential tool in the laboratory, but it plays a significant role in the control of microbial contamination in the processing of food stuffs, the production of agricultural products, and the monitoring of environmental media such as ground water. Increasing stringency in regulations which apply to microbial contamination have resulted in a corresponding increase in industry resources which must be dedicated to contamination monitoring. Of greatest concern is the detection and control of pathogenic microorganisms.
- pathogenic Although a broad range of microorganisms have been classified as pathogenic, attention has primarily focused on a few bacterial groupings such as Escherichia, Salmonella, Listeria and Clostridia. Typically, pathogen identification has relied on methods for distinguishing phenotypic aspects such as growth or motility characteristics, and for immunological and serological characteristics. Selective growth procedures and immunological methods are the traditional methods of choice for bacterial identification and these can be effective for the presumptive detection of a large number of species within a particular genus. However, these methods are time consuming and are subject to error. Selective growth methods require culturing and subculturing in selective media, followed by subjective analysis by an experienced investigator.
- Immunological detection e.g., ELISA
- ELISA ELISA-Linked Immunological detection
- nucleic acid sequences associated with the ribosomes of bacteria are often highly conserved across genera and are therefore useful for identification (Webster, U.S. Pat. No. 4,717,653 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,087,558; Enns, Lab. Med, 19, 295, (1988); Mordarski, Soc. Appl. Bacteriol. Tech. Ser., 20 (Chem. Methods Bact. Syst.), 41, (1985)).
- Weisburg et al. disclose a method for the detection and identification of pathogenic microorganisms involving the PCR amplification and labeling of a target nucleotide for hybridization to 16S rDNA of E. coli. Lane et al.
- bacterial ribosomal nucleic acids contain highly conserved sequences, they are not the only sources of base sequence conservation that is useful for microorganism identification.
- Wheatcroft et al. (CA 2055302) describe the selection of transposable elements, flanked by unique DNA sequences, for the detection of various Rhizobium strains.
- Tommassen et al. (WO 9011370) disclose polynucleotide probes and methods for the identification and detection of gram-positive bacteria. The method of Tommassen et al. relies on probes corresponding to relatively short fragments of the outer membrane protein OmpA, known to be highly conserved throughout gram-positive genera. Atlas et al.
- the methods described above are useful for the detection of bacteria, but each relies upon knowledge of a gene, protein, or other specific sequence known a priori to be highly conserved throughout a specific bacterial group.
- An alternative method would involve a nontargeted analysis of bacterial genomic DNA for specific non-phenotypic genetic markers common to all species of that bacteria. For example, genetic markers based on single point mutations may be detected by differentiating DNA banding patterns from restriction enzyme analysis. As restriction enzymes cut DNA at specific sequences, a point mutation within this site results in the loss or gain of a recognition site, giving rise in that region to restriction fragments of different length. Mutations caused by the insertion, deletion or inversion of DNA stretches will also lead to a length variation of DNA restriction fragments.
- Genomic restriction fragments of different lengths between genotypes can be detected on Southern blots (Southern, J. Mol. Biol. 98, 503, (1975)).
- the genomic DNA is typically digested with any restriction enzyme of choice, the fragments are electrophoretically separated, and then hybridized against a suitably labelled probe for detection.
- the sequence variation detected by this method is known as restriction length polymo ⁇ hism or RFLP (Botstein et al., Am. J. Hum. Genet. 342, 314, (1980)).
- RFLP genetic markers are particularly useful in detecting genetic variation in phenotypically silent mutations and serve as highly accurate diagnostic tools.
- Another method of identifying genetic polymo ⁇ hic markers employs DNA amplification using short primers of arbitrary sequence. These primers have been termed “random amplified polymo ⁇ hic DNA” or “RAPD” primers (see Williams et al., Nucl. Acids. Res., 18, 6531 (1990) and U.S. Pat. No. 5,126,239; also EP 0 543 484 A2, WO 92/07095, WO 92/07948, WO 92/14844, and WO 92/03567).
- the RAPD method amplifies either double or single stranded nontargeted. arbitrary DNA sequences using standard amplification buffers, dATP, dCTP.
- RAPD detection of genetic polymo ⁇ hisms represents an advance over RFLP in that it is less time consuming, more informative, and readily susceptible to automation. Because of its sensitivity for the detection of polymo ⁇ hisms, RAPD analysis and variations based on RAPD/PCR methods have become the methods of choice for analyzing genetic variation within species or closely related genera, both in the animal and plant kingdoms. For example, Landry et al.
- Applicants disclose a method of double-nested PCR which is used to detect the presence of a specific microbe.
- This disclosure first describes identifying a random, unique segment of DNA for each individual microorganism which will be diagnostic for that microorganism.
- a series of polymo ⁇ hic markers is generated from each organism of interest using single primer RAPD analysis.
- the RAPD series from each organism is compared to similarly generated RAPD series for other organisms, and a RAPD marker unique to all members of the group is then selected.
- the unique marker is then isolated, amplified and sequenced.
- Outer primers and inner primers suitable for double-nested PCR of each marker may then be developed.
- primers comprise sequence segments within the RAPD markers, wherein the inner set of primers will be complementary to the 3' ends of the target piece of nucleic acid. These nested primers may then be used for nested PCR amplification to definitely detect the presence of a specific microorganism.
- Applicants have more particularly adapted and described this RAPD methodology to identify a sequence, or marker.
- the presence of the marker is diagnostic for all individuals of the genus Salmonella.
- USSN 08/254,355 teaches a method involving a RAPD amplification of genomic DNA of a representative number of Salmonella individuals to produce a RAPD amplification product, termed the diagnostic fragment.
- This diagnostic fragment must be present in the RAPD profiles in over 90% of the individuals tested. Sequence information from the diagnostic fragment enables identification of the most suitable PCR primer binding sites within the diagnostic fragment to define a unique diagnostic marker. Primers flanking this marker are useful for the generation of amplification products from Salmonella genomic DNA, but will not produce any amplification products in non-Salmonella genera.
- a detection methodology using PCR RAPD specific to Escherichia coli 0157:H7 serotypes would be of high utility in the food industry. Detection methods not dependent on sequences derived from a known gene or associated with a known phenotypic characteristic of E. coli 0157:H7 serotype have not previously been disclosed.
- the present invention provides a method for the determination of diagnostic genetic markers for the specific identification of E. coli 0157:H7 serotype. The method comprises the following steps: (i) performing a RAPD amplification on the genomic DNA of a representative number of individual E. coli 0157:H7 strains. These strains comprise the positive test panel.
- RAPD amplification performed on individuals of the positive test panel will generate a RAPD marker profile from each individual.
- the same RAPD amplification is performed on the genomic DNA of a significant number of individuals genetically unrelated to the positive test panel.
- non-0157:H7 E. coli made up the negative test panel.
- RAPD amplifcation of the members of the negative test panel generated individual RAPD marker profiles as with the postive test panel;
- step (iv) preparing one or more pairs of primers corresponding to the available primer binding sites of step (iii);
- Figure 3a displays the PCR product patterns of E. coli strains from the positive test panel amplified with the single primer 77-26- 111.
- Figure 4a displays the PCR product patterns of E. coli strains from the positive test panel amplified with the primer pair 77-26-538/7111-26-rcl 012.
- Figure 4b displays the PCR product patterns of £ coli strains from the negative test panel amplified with the primer pair 77-26-538/7111-26-rcl 012
- Applicant has used RAPD amplification of 0157:H7 genomic DNA to discover diagnostic fragments and primers useful for the specific detection of E. coli 0157:H7 serotypes.
- the fragment is used to generate specific primers from the most conserved regions of the fragment for use in a PCR assay that will only produce an amplification product from a 0157:H7 genome. No amplification products are seen with non-0157 :H7 E. coli.
- Applicant's method is distinctive in the following regard. To selectively detect only the 0157.H7 serotype from all other E. coli strains the method must be sucessful in determining the most conserved regions of the diagnostic fragment from a phenotypically uncharacterized segment of DNA common to all members of the Escherichia genus.
- conservation of sequence may be both an ally and an enemy in identifying the members of a particular genus. For example, many bacterial sequences are conserved across genera and hence these would not be useful in the determination of species within a particular genus.
- Nucleic acid refers to a molecule which can be single stranded or double stranded, comprising monomers (nucleotides) containing a sugar, phosphate and either a purine or pyrimidine.
- DNA deoxyribonucleic acid
- RNA ribonucleic acid
- PCR polymerase chain reaction
- LCR ligase chain reaction
- a “diagnostic fragment” refers to a particular DNA sequence which is highly conserved amongst the individuals of a particular genetically related population, for example, a genus, species, or serotype of bacteria.
- the term “diagnostic fragment” is used to refer to that fragment generated during RAPD amplification which is present in the RAPD profiles from all E. coli 0157:H7 serotypes, but absent in profiles from non-0157:H7 serotypes.
- the term “diagnostic marker” is used herein to refer to that portion of the diagnostic fragment which can be targeted to produce an amplification product only in E. coli 0157:H7. The diagnostic marker is not present in non-0157 :H7 E.
- primer is used generally herein by Applicants to encompass any sequence-binding oligonucleotide which functions to initiate the nucleic acid replication process.
- “Diagnostic primers” will refer to primers designed with sequences complementary to primer binding sites on the diagnostic marker. Diagnostic primers are useful in the convenient detection and identification of diagnostic markers specific to E. dcoli 0157:H7.
- unknown microorganism or "unknown bacterium” is a microorganism or bacterium whose identity is undetermined.
- a "negative test panel” will refer to a test panel selected on the basis of genetic diversity between its members and the members of the positive test panel.
- a suitable negative test panel in the present invention would be comprised of non-0157:H7 E. coli bacterial strains.
- RAPD primers refers to primers of about 8 to 13 bp, of arbitrary sequence, useful in the RAPD amplification or RAPD analysis according to the instant method.
- the "RAPD marker profile” refers to the pattern, or finge ⁇ rint, of amplified DNA fragments which are amplified during the RAPD method and separated and visualized by gel electrophoresis.
- the diagnostic marker of the invention can be used to identify any member of the E. coli 0157:H7 serotype to the exclusion of all other bacterial genera and all other E. coli species and strains.
- diagnostic primers flanking the marker are useful to amplify the marker using PCR.
- nucleic acid probes could be developed based upon some or all of the diagnostic marker sequences and thus used to detect the presence of the marker sequence using standard solid phase or solution nucleic acid hybridization and reporter methods. It is contemplated that regions of about 30 base pairs or more of the diagnostic marker, especially encompassing the primer regions could be used as sites for hybridization of diagnostic probes.
- RAPD amplification using a short arbitrary primer, is performed on the genomic DNA of a positive and negative test panel of bacteria.
- the positive test panel consisted of members of E. coli 0157:H7 serotype.
- the negative test panel consisted principally of non-0157:H7 E. coli strains.
- the electrophoretically resolved patterns of amplification products produced by the RAPD amplifications were then compared.
- a distinctive RAPD amplification product present in all of the individuals tested in the positive test panel and absent in the members of the negative test panel was identified and sequenced. Sequencing revealed suitable primer sites which were used to determine suitable primer binding sites for further analysis and primer generation.
- Genomic DNA isolated from positive and negative test panels of microorganisms was subjected to RAPD amplification using eight 12-base primers of arbitrary sequence.
- the positive test panel consisted of 12 strains of E. coli 0157:H7 and is described in detail in the GENERAL METHODS section below.
- the negative test panel consisted of a variety of 88 non-0157:H7 E. coli serotypes and is also described in the GENERAL METHODS section below. Techniques for the isolation of genomic DNA are common and well known in the art and examples may be found in Sambrook et al., Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual - volumes 1,2,3 (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory: Cold Spring Harbor, New York).
- RAPD primers of 12 bases in length were used because at this primer length the RAPD patterns generally contained one to five amplified DNA fragments. Use of shorter primers frequently resulted in a large number of amplification products, which made the extraction of a single homogeneous fragment for sequencing much more difficult. When primers of greater than 12 bases were used a significant fraction of the bacterial strains produced no RAPD products which would have necessitated the screening of a much larger number of arbitrary primers.
- One of the primers designated 12CN07 (Table I, GENERAL METHODS), was found to produce a 626 bp amplification product in all of the positive test panel. 12CN07 had the sequence of GGC ATT AGT CAC (SEQ ID NO.: 3). The 626 bp fragment was not seen in the amplification products of the negative test panel with primer 12CN07.
- the 626 bp product was selected for extraction and sequencing from 0157:H7 genomic DNA. Since the 12CN07 primer generated a single product in the amplification of 0157:H7 genomic DNA, isolation of the product by gel electrophoresis was not required. Sequencing began by using the 12CN07 primer sequence, since this was the only component of the RAPD product that was known. One of the 12CN07 sequences was removed from the RAPD product by digestion with a select group of 4, 5 and 6 base cutting restriction enzymes. Restriction enzymes that cut the RAPD product near one of the 12CN07 sequences produced digest products that could be directly sequenced without further purification. Although overlapping sequence data occurred up to the digest site, only sequence from the undigested end was observed after that point.
- 0157:H7 genomic DNA 0157:H7 genomic DNA.
- Initial primer sets were selected to achieve a GC composition of 50 + 5% within in a distance of 200 bases from each 12CN07 priming site. These primer sequences were also examined to insure that inter- and intra-primer interactions, which might produce nonspecific PCR artifacts, were minimized. In spite of these precautions, many of the primer sets produced multiple amplification products from genomic E. coli DNAs. Although the presence of multiple products made the analysis more difficult, it was possible to identify general locations in the 12CN07 fragment where 0157:H7 selectivity was high. The second stage of analysis required a finely resolved base-by-base primer screening.
- the initial criteria for primer selection was that the GC content of the two primers should match and that the overall GC content fell in the range of 50 ⁇ 5%.
- the second criteria was that the pairs of primers were all located within 200 bases of the 12CN07 priming sites. To find primers that most reliably gave amplification products against 0157. ⁇ 7 genomic DNA, one of the primer sites identified after sequencing was "locked” while the second priming site was moved upstream or downstream one base at a time. In this way the priming site that most consistently gave amplification products against 0157:H7 DNA was identified and fixed. The second priming site was then "locked” and additional primers were prepared, which moved the first priming site at the other end of the target sequence upstream or downstream one base at a time.
- a positive test panel consisting of 12 genotypically different 0157:H7 E. coli strains was constructed for the identification of a serotype level 0157:H7 RAPD marker.
- RAPD primers used for amplification of genomic DNA from the positive and negative test panels are given below in Table I.
- a set of eight 12-base primers (Table I) was used in a Random Amplified Polymo ⁇ hic DNA (RAPD) analysis of 48 strains of Escherichia coli, including 7 strains representing serotype 0157:H7. The results of these amplifications were examined for a 0157:H7 specific amplification product that could be easily separated from other RAPD products. Five RAPD primers that showed the promising results were subsequently used in the analysis of 64 additional strains of E. coli, including 5 strains of 0157:H7.
- RAPD Random Amplified Polymo ⁇ hic DNA
- Blank lanes are designated with the letter "B".
- Unlabeled lanes contain molecular weight markers of the following sizes: 228, 412, 693, 1331, and 2306 bps. Of the remaining 100 strains of non-0157:H7 only 2 strains produced this product. This 626 bp product was isolated for further characterization. As is evident from Figure 1. the positive test panel produced a characteristic amplification product of 626 bp which appeared in all of the 12 E. coli 0157.H7 strains tested.
- E. coli 0157:H7 diagnostic Fragment The 626 bp product for DuPont No.641 E. coli (ATCC 43890, American Type Culture Collection, Rockville, MD) a well-characterized ATCC strain of 0157:H7. was selected for sequencing. Since 12CN07 generated single product in the amplification of 0157:H7 genomic DNA, isolation of the product by gel electrophoresis was not required.
- Sequencing the 12CN07 RAPD product was accomplished using the chain-termination method of Sanger et al. (Proc. Nail. Acad. Sci., USA 74, 5463. (1977)) using fluorescence-labeled dideoxynucleotides and the Genesis 2000TM DNA Analysis System (E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, Wilmington, DE).
- the first step in the sequencing process requires use of the 12CN07 primer sequence, since this is the only component of the RAPD product that is known.
- 12CN07 as a primer sequence, it was necessary to remove one of the 12CN07 sequences from the RAPD product. When this is not done, reactions using a 12CN07 primer generate sequencing products from both ends of the RAPD product. Such a mixture of overlapping sequencing products can not be used to reliably determine nucleotide composition.
- the RAPD product was digested with a select group of 4, 5 and 6 base restriction enzymes. If the restriction enzymes cut the RAPD product near one of the 12CN07 sequences, then the digest product could be directly sequenced without further purification. Although overlapping sequence data occurs up to the digest site, past that point only sequence from the undigested end is observed.
- the following restriction enzymes cut the RAPD product near the 12CN07 sequence of the -strand: Bel 1, Bsp 1286 I. Bsr I, and Sau3A I. Products from these digests were used to sequence the +strand. BstN I, BstU I. Fnu4H I, and Hae 111 cut the RAPD product near the 12CN07 sequence of the +strand.
- the labeled sequencing products were then analyzed by the Genesis 2000TM DNA Analysis System. Once differential sequence had been determined at both ends of the E. coli target fragment the remaining sequence information was obtained through the use of either asymmetric PCR to generate single- stranded DNA or a modified double-stranded DNA sequencing protocol using double-stranded PCR product.
- the modification in the double-stranded protocol consisted of using a 46°C annealing temperature and a prime ⁇ template ratio of 25: 1. This ratio is significantly higher than is generally practiced in sequencing reactions. At such a large prime ⁇ template ratio, priming at multiple sites is generally observed with single-stranded templates.
- Figures 3a and 3b show the banding patterns as separated by gel electrophoresis for samples of 21 different E. coli from both the positive ( Figure 3a) and negative ( Figure 3b) test panels which was amplified with a single primer, 77-26-111.
- the lanes in Figure 3 a are correlated with the E. coli as follows: Lane Stain No. Serotype Lane Stain No. Serotype
- Unlabeled lanes contain molecular weight markers of the following sizes: 228, 412, 693, 1331, and 2306 bps.
- Figures 4a and 4b show the banding patterns as separated by gel electrophoresis for samples of 21 different E. coli from both the positive ( Figure 4a) and negative ( Figure 4b) test panels which resulted from amplification with a single primer, 77-26-111.
- the lanes in Figure 4a are correlated with the E. coli as follows:
- Amplification conditions using primer pair 77-26-538/711 l-26-rcl012 for amplification of genomic DNA from the negative test panel were as follows: For each 50 ⁇ L reaction, 1.5 ⁇ L - dNTP mix (5 mM dNTP each), 36.3 ⁇ L deionized water. 5 ⁇ L - 10X reaction buffer (500 mM KCl.
- Amplification conditions using primer pair-23-114/77-23-rc536 for amplification of genomic DNA from both the positive and negative test panel were as follows: For each 50 ⁇ L reaction, 1.5 ⁇ L - dNTP mix (5 mM dNTP each), 36.3 ⁇ L deionized water, 5 ⁇ L - 10X reaction buffer (500 mM KCl, 100 mM tris @ 8.3, 15 mM MgCl2, 0.003% gelatin), 2.5 ⁇ L - each primer (10 mM), 0.4 ⁇ L Taq polymerase (5 U/ ⁇ L), and 1.2 ⁇ L Taq dilution buffer (10 mM tris @ pH 8.0 and 1.0% Tween 20) were combined.
