Definitions
- the present invention is in the area of DNA methylation profiling.
- the invention relates to a method of using bisuifite-mediated cytosine conversion, followed by random amplification using a unique primer design, and processing for arrays or other high- throughput sequence analysis methods.
- the method according to the invention allows improved detection sensitivity and high resolution over the current state of the art of genome-wide detection of DNA methylation,
- DNA methylation is found in wide array of organisms ranging from bacteria to humans. In general, DNA methylation is catalyzed by DNA methyltransferases adding a methyl group to the N6 position of adenine or the C5 or N4 position of cytosine.
- the main focus within the scope of the present invention is on the impact and detection of cytosine methylation at the CS position (SmC), the predominantly modified base in multicellular eukaryotes,
- DNA methyiation is imprinting of silenced promoters on the inactive X chromosome , but more recently a 2-fold increase of allele specific DNA methyiation within genes on the active X versus the inactive X chromosome indicates methylation is not repressive within all genomic positions 2 . Indeed, reports of body methyiation within actively expressed genes were reported in Arabidopsis 3 4 5 , Similarly, the importance of DNA rnethylation during mammalian development for correct embryonic gene expression and development has been appreciated, but has recently gained additional interest towards developing stem cell therapies . Another major research interest regarding the role of DNA methylation has resulted from understanding that DNA methylation in cancer cells can be different from normal cells 7 .
- MSREs methylation-sensit ⁇ ve restriction enzymes
- Cytosine conversion upon sodium bisulfite treatment was first reported in 1970 15 , but the major advancement for DNA methyiation analysis occurred upon the advent of PCR techniques 16 . Briefly, 5-methyicytosine detection is based on the specific reaction of bisulfite with cytosine, which is converted to uracil after subsequent alkaline hydrolysis. Following PCR amplification, the uracil corresponds to thymidine at the converted site 17 . However, 5-methylcytosine is not modified under these conditions. Thus, bisulf ⁇ te-mediated cytosine conversion identifies C-to-T transitions, analogous to single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), to allow detection of methylation polymorphisms.
- SNPs single nucleotide polymorphisms
- the invention provides a method for amplification of a genomic polynucleotide sample comprising a polynucleotide treated with a modifying agent that modifies unmethyiated cytosine to produce a converted nucleic acid, particularly a sodium bisulfite-treated polynucleotide, which method comprises a. contacting a genomic polynucleotide sample with a modifying agent, particularly a sodium bisulfite, that modifies unmethyiated cytosine to produce a converted nucleic acid, b.
- a modifying agent particularly a sodium bisulfite
- a first amplification round amplifying said polynucleotide sample by means of a first oligonucleotide primer comprising essentially two portions, wherein the first portion at its 3' end comprises a random nucleotide sequence, particularly a sequence of less than 6 random nucleotides, and the second portion at its 5' end comprises a defined nucleotide sequence, particularly a sequence of at least 10 defined nucleotides, even more particularly of at least 15 defined, but especially of at least 20 defined nucleotides and up to at least 30-40 defined nucleotides; and c. in a second amplification round amplifying the first round primary amplification product by means of a second oligonucleotide primer comprising essentially only the second defined portion of the first oligonucleotide primer used in step b..
- the polynucleotide sample is a DNA sample. In one embodiment of the invention, the polynucleotide sample is a RNA sample.
- the polynucleotide is from an animal, particularly a mammal, but especially a human.
- the polynucleotide is from a plant, particularly a plant of agronomic importance such as a field crop or a vegetable plant.
- the genomic DNA is digested for sample preparation using restriction enzymes, particularly enzymes lacking cytosine residues within the recognition site.
- the digestion products are 30Kb or less, particularly the digestion products are in a range of between 0.5-10Kb and more particularly 5 Kb.
- the digested DNA is treated with sodium bisulfite such as to convert essentially ail non-methylated cytosines to uracil, and to maintain all methylated cytosines as cytosines; and to minimize fragmentation effects due to depurination during the treatment.
- sodium bisulfite such as to convert essentially ail non-methylated cytosines to uracil, and to maintain all methylated cytosines as cytosines; and to minimize fragmentation effects due to depurination during the treatment.
- UDG uracil DNA glycosylase
- the sodium bisulfite and sodium hydroxide molecules are efficiently removed by the end of the treatment.
