Abstract

Background: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which consist of a substitution of a single nucleotide pair, are the most abundant form of genetic variations occurring with a frequency of approximately 1 per 1000 base pairs. SNPs by themselves do not cause disease but can predispose humans to disease, modify the extent or severity of the disease or influence the drug response and treatment efficacy. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), particularly those within the regulatory regions of the genes often influence the expression levels and can modify the disease. Studies examining the associations between SNP and the disease outcome have provided valuable insight into the disease etiology and potential therapeutic intervention. Traditionally, the genotyping of SNPs has been carried out using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP), which is a low throughput technique not amenable for use in large-scale SNP studies. Recently, TaqMan real-time PCR chemistry was adapted for use in allelic discrimination assays. This study validated the accuracy and utility of real-time PCR technology for SNPs genotyping Methods: The SNPs in promoter sequence (-37 and -524) of lung cancer suppressor gene, RRM1 (ribonucleotide reductase M1 subunit) with the genomic DNA samples of 89 subjects were genotyped using both real-time PCR and PCR-RFLP. Results: The discordance rates were 2.2% (2 mismatches) in -37 and 16.3% (15 mismatches) in -524. Auto-direct sequencing of all the mismatched samples(17 cases) were in accord with the genotypes read by real-time PCR. In addition, 138 genomic DNAs were genotyped using real-time PCR in a duplicate manner (two separated assays). Ninety-eight percent of the samples showed concordance between the two assays. Conclusion: Real-time PCR allelic discrimination assays are amenable to high-throughput genotyping and overcome many of the problematic features associated with PCR-RFLP.

연구배경: 단일염기다형성(Single nucleotide polymorphism, SNP)은 인간의 유전자 서열 1000염기에 1개 빈도로 발견되어 인간은 대략 300만개의 유전자 다형성을 가지고 있다. 이 유전자 다형성의 조합결과로 인간의 개체 간 특성들이 결정되는 것으로 이해되고 있다. 이러한 다형성들의 조합양상에 따라 특이 질환에 대한 유전자 감수성 또한 달라지게 되므로 최근에는 많은 질환들과 유전자 다형성들과의 상관관계를 보는 연구들도 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 이러한 SNP분석은 큰 집단을 대상으로 진행되어 지므로 적은 비용으로 정확하게 그리고 대용량으로 분석할 수 있는 방법이 필요하다. 방 법: 대상 환자 89명의 genomic DNA를 가지고서 promotor상에 위치한 -37과 -524 염기부위에서 유전자 다형성을 보이는 것으로 보고되어져 있는 RRM1(ribonucleotide reductase M1) 유전자를 대상으로 PCR-RFLP(polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism)와 real-time PCR(RTPCR, TaqMan probe assay)을 동시에 시행한 후 각각의 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 결 과: 대상 DNA 89예 중 -37에서는 2예(2.17%), -524에서는 15예(16.26%)가 서로 다른 양상을 보였다. 결과 차이를 보인 샘플 17예를 대상으로 직접 염기서열 분석을 시행하여 본 결과, 17예 모두 RT-PCR에서 확인되었던 결과와 일치함을 확인할 수 있었다. 추가 샘플 138예를 대상으로 RT-PCR을 2회 연속 실행하여 genotyping을 해 본 결과 98%이상의 높은 일치율을 보였으며, 그중 10예를 무작위로 골라 직접 염기서열 분석을 시행하여 본 결과, 역시 100%일치, 높은 정확도를 보였고 이는 in-tube assay 방식으로 샘플의 오염을 최소화 할 수 있었으며 72 well based system(Corbett Research)을 이용함으로 1회 유전자 증폭반응을 통해 많은 검체를 한 번에 확인할 수 있어 매우 빠른 검사방법 이었다. 결 론: 큰 집단을 대상으로 다량의 SNP를 분석하기 위한 실험 방법으로는 RT-PCR이 신속하면서도 정확한 결과를 얻을 수 있는 방법으로 사료된다.
