Simple and accurate visual detection of single nucleotide polymorphism based on colloidal gold nucleic acid strip biosensor and primer-specific PCR
Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was associated with many human diseases, therefore, SNP detection was important for early diagnosis and clinical prognosis. Herein, a simple and accurate method for visual detection SNP sites (A/A, G/G, A/G) in CYP1A1 gene related to cancers based on colloidal gold nucleic acid strip biosensor and primer-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was established. This method could directly distinguish SNP sites on strip biosensor by introducing twice PCR amplifications. The second PCR (primer-specific PCR) was performed using specific product of the first PCR as template, thus this twice PCR could reduce non-specific amplification greatly and obtain target product. In addition, single-strand or double-strand DNA (ssDNA or dsDNA) was accurately produced by introducing mismatched base at the 3’ end of forward primers in primer-specific PCR. The designed strip biosensor could only combine with the ssDNA, thus visual detection of SNP could be achieved within 10 min by color difference of a pair of strips. 61 human blood samples by this method were identical with those of pyrosequencing. This method had the advantages of rapid, visual and low-cost and was expected to be applied in medical diagnosis.
