Nucleic Acid Probe and Method of Detecting Genomic Fragments
Provided herein, among other things, is a method of processing a nucleic acid sample. In some embodiments, the method comprises a) hybridizing a sample comprising a target fragment to a nucleic acid probe comprising: i. a head sequence and a tail sequence, wherein the head and tail sequences are at the ends of a first oligonucleotide molecule; and ii. a splint sequence comprising, in order: an upstream flanking sequence that is complementary to the head sequence; a target complementary sequence that is complementary to the target fragment; and a downstream flanking sequence that is complementary to the tail sequence; thereby producing a hybridization product in which the ends of the target fragment are ligatably adjacent to the ends of the head and tail sequences in the first oligonucleotide molecule; and b) ligating the ends of the target fragment to the ends of the head and tail sequences of the first oligonucleotide molecule, thereby producing a cyclic product that comprises the target fragment and the head and tail sequences. Probes and kits for performing the method are also provided.
Described herein is a new approach in which a nucleic acid species of interest (e.g. a chromosome) containing multiple unique target sequences is detected using multiple specific probes that are amplified by rolling circle amplification and detected. Multiple probes are used to provide a detectable signal, where the magnitude of the signal is proportional to the number of probes recognising their target sequences. Individual signals from the plurality of probes are converted into a single cumulative detectable signal, amplifying the individual signals through the multiplex probing. Ten or more probes produce a signal amplification of ten-fold or more. The generated signals depend on correctly reacted probes upon target recognition, using sequence specific hybridisation and enzymatic catalysis to generate specific products from which the signal is obtained.
