Anmärkningar

  • Binder-based assays are employed throughout the life sciences. Powerful signal amplification techniques have enabled detection of very rare molecule species diluted in simple buffers. Unspecific binding of primary binders leads to increased background in more complex samples. By requiring two recognition events, ligation-based molecular analyses provide highly specific detection of biomolecules in complex samples. We developed a highly multiplexed padlock-ligation assay targeting signature sequences in the hemagglutinin and neuraminidase genes. From a panel of 77 avian influenza isolates of all major serotypes, 97% were genotyped correctly in accordance with previous classifications by classical diagnostic methods (Paper I). Alternative splicing is an important mechanism expanding the proteome. Current analysis techniques fail to provide sequences of complete transcripts beyond the read length of sequencing instruments. We devised and implemented a strategy to compress the sequence information contained in the splicing pattern of a transcript into the presence or absence of sequence-blocks. We demonstrate that this assay yields information about the splicing patterns in thousands of transcripts from cellular cDNA (Paper II). Expression changes of mucin proteins and glycosylation structures are frequently observed from the early stages of cancer development. Expression of mucin 2 and sialyl-Tn are common features of intestinal metaplasia and gastric cancer, and are known to co-locate. Here we have developed an in situ proximity ligation assay (PLA) directed against mucin 2 and sialyl-Tn. Our study on intestinal metaplasia and gastric cancer tissue sections identified mucin 2 as a major carrier of sialyl-Tn in these conditions, and demonstrated how conveniently glycosylation of proteins can be studied by in situ PLA (Paper III). This thesis shows how the dual recognition requirement of ligation-based assays can be employed to detect target molecules with high specificity, to analyze several sequence features of nucleic acids or to study the proximity of two antigens in situ.
