Design of Gaussia luciferase-based bioluminescent stem-loop probe for sensitive detection of HIV-1 nucleic acids

Abstract: Here we describe the design of a bioluminescent stem-loop probe for the sensitive detection of HIV-1 spliced RNA. In this study, we employed Gaussia luciferase (GLuc), a bioluminescent protein that has several advantages over other bioluminescent proteins, including smaller size, higher bioluminescent intensity, and chemical and thermal stability. GLuc was chemically conjugated to the DABCYL-modified stem-loop probe (SLP) and was purified with a 2-step process to remove unconjugated GLuc and SLP. The binding o… Show more

“…The general concept was introduced by Deo and her associates assembled a (Renilla) luciferase-hairpin oligonucleotide-(3'-dabcyl) conjugate for micro-RNA detection, [12] and subsequently created a (Gaussia) luciferasehairpin oligonucleotide-(3'-dabcyl) conjugate for HIV detection. [11] The Deo sensors were prepared by spontaneous coupling of hairpin-forming oligos onto reactive residues of those luciferase enzymes. Spontaneous coupling is relatively inexpensive, but the technique produces heterogeneity in enzyme: oligonucleotide stoichiometry (1 : 1, 1 : 2, 1 : 3 etc.)…”

“…In enzymatic beacons or E-beacons the fluorophore of a molecular beacon is replaced by the compact, ATP-independent bioluminescent enzyme, nanoluciferase (Nluc). [10][11][12][13] This substitution provides an internal, amplifiable light source. Nluc with the engineered substrate furimazine produces light that is sufficiently bright for measurement using a portable luminometer.…”

“…GLuc was chemically conjugated to the DABCYL‐modified nucleotide stem‐loop probe complementary to HIV‐1 RNA. DABCYL serves as a BRET quencher of bioluminescence in the closed conformation of SLP in the absence of the target .…”

“…For example, an enzymatic amplification requires a multi-step process and use of enzyme, which is costly and sensitive to reaction conditions such as temperature, pH, and enzyme inhibitors [8,18]. Other emerging examples demonstrating a sensitive detection of DNA down to low picomolar and high attomolar concentrations in an amplification-free format involve complex systems such as quantum dots, nanoparticles, cationic polymers, or microarrays [19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29]. In this regard, single-molecule FRET (smFRET) with the ability to measure many single molecules simultaneously offers several advantages over these complex systems and the bulk fluorescence assays [30].…”
