  • Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP)법은 등온에서 DNA 주형을 변성시키지 않고 실시하기 때문에, autocycling 가닥 변위 DNA 합성에 의존한다. 그래서 고가의 PCR 장비를 필요로 하지 않고 등온 유지가 가능한 저가의 장비인 항온 수조, 오븐, 온장고 등에서 증폭이 가능하다. 본 연구진은 Streptococcus parauberis의 random primer중에서 5개를 선정하여, 신장도가 높은 2개의 primer를 이용하여 최적 반응온도 및 최적 반응시간, 최적 반응 조건들을 확립하였다. 그리고 기존의 PCR과 LAMP의 민감도의 비교 분석을 측정한 결과, LAMP의 높은 검출 한계를 확인할 수 있었다. 본 논문에서는 non-target DNA의 영향을 받지 않고 등온 조건 하에서 DNA를 증폭시킬 수 있는 LAMP법과 SYBR-green I를 이용하여 시각화시켰으며, 기존의 PCR과 비교 분석함으로써, S. parauberis에 대한 신속하고 정확한 진단법을 확립하였다.

  • 법과학 분야에서 다양한 Y-STR 분석 키트가 개발되어 사용되고 있고, 새로운 키트의 법과학적 적용에 앞서 DNA 감정에 적절한 분석 키트들의 선정과 표준작업절차서의 작성을 위해 실험실 내의 내부적 유효성 검증 및 민감도 시험은 필수적인 과정이다. 본 논문에서는 새로운 상업용 키트인 Yfiler® PLUS PCR Amplification Kit (Yfiler plus 키트, 2014년 출시)를 AmpF/STR® YfilerTM PCR Amplification Kit (Yfiler 키트, 2004년 출시)와 비교함으로써 민감도에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. Yfiler plus 키트는 Yfiler 키트의 17 개 Y-STR 좌위를 포함하면서 새로운 10 개의 Y-STR 좌위가 추가되었다. 먼저, 표준 DNA 시료인 2800M, 007을 이용하여 두 키트 간의 민감도 차이를 분석하였고, 선별된 0.5 ng 미만의 법과학 현장시료 16 개로부터 검출률을 비교하였다. 그 결과, Yfiler 키트보다 Yfiler plus 키트가 높은 민감도와 검출률을 보였고, 더 많은 좌위에서 Y-STR 프로필을 얻을 수 있었다. 이러한 결과들로부터 낮은 농도의 법과학 현장시료에서 Yfiler plus 키트가 Y-STR 프로필을 검출하는데 더욱 효과적인 분석키트임이 확인되었다.

  • Our aims were to evaluate the clinical performance of human telomerase RNA gene component (hTERC gene) amplification assay with high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) DNA test of Hybrid Capture 2 DNA test (HC2), for the detection of high grade cervical precancerous lesions and cancer (CIN 2+). In addition, the association shown between hTERC gene amplification and HPV DNA test positive in women with and without cervical neoplasia was assessed. There were 92 women who underwent cytology, HR-HPV DNA test, hTERC gene amplification test, colposcopy and biopsy. We compared the clinical performance of hTERC gene test along with HR-HPV DNA test of women with colposcopy and routine screening. The samples were histology-confirmed high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN 2) or worse (CIN2+) as the positive criterion. The test of hTERC gene showed the hTERC gene amplification positivity increased with the severity of histological abnormality and cytological abnormality. The test of hTERC gene showed higher specificity than HR-HPV DNA test for high-grade lesions (84.4% versus 50%) and also higher positive predictive value (90.4% versus 76.5%). Our results predicted that hTERC gene amplification demonstrated more specific performance for predicting the risk of progression and offer a strong potential as a tool for triage in cervical cancer screening, with the limited sensitive as HR-HPV DNA test.

  • Cigarette butts from 5 smokers were gathered and then, placed in room temperature for 1, 3, 5, 7, 15 days. The possible use of the cigarette butts for individual identification was evaluated in sex determination, amplification of D1S80 locus, polymorphisms of HLA-DQA1 gene from the extracted DNA. 1. DNA extraction was possible in cigarette butts weree left in room temperature for 15days, so it can be applicatable to individual identification by polymerase chain reaction(PCR). 2. Amplification of X-Y homologous amelogenin gene by PCR made it possible to identify the sex in saliva stains (cigarette butts). 3. Amplification of D1S80 locus can be acquired from adding the boving serum albumin and hot start PCR procedures from forensic samples such as saliva stains (cigarette butts), so the AMP-FLPs examining is possible. 4. Genotype could be determined simply and rapidly using Amplitype$TM$ HLA-DQ$\alpha$ forensic kit in examining the HLA-DQA1 gene. From the investigation, DNA extraction, sex determination, amplification of D1S80 locus, polymorphisms of HLA-DQA1 gene was successfully done even though the cigarette butts were left for 15 days at room temperature. Therefore cigarette butts are highly reliable and applicatable as molecular biologic samples for individual identification.

  • Genetic association case-control studies using DNA pools are efficient ways of detecting association between a marker allele and disease status. DNA pooling is an efficient screening method for locating susceptibility genes associated with the disease. However, DNA pooling is efficient only when allele frequency estimation is done precisely and accurately. Through the evaluation of empirical type I errors and empirical powers by simulation, we will evaluate the methods that correct for preferential amplification of nucleotides when estimating the allele frequency of single-nucleotide polymorphisms.

  • Emulsion polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is performed on compartmentalized DNA, allowing a large number of PCR reactions to be carried out in parallel. Emulsion PCR has unique advantages in DNA amplification. It can be applied in many molecular biological assays, especially those requiring highly sensitive and specific DNA amplification. This review discusses the principle of emulsion PCR and its applications in biotechnology. Related technologies are also discussed.

  • Giardia lamblia is recognized as one of the most prevalent parasites in dogs. The present study aimed to establish a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for rapid and specific detection of G. lamblia from dogs. The fecal samples were collected and prepared for microscopic analysis, and then the genomic DNA was extracted directly from purified cysts. The concentration of DNA samples of G. lamblia were diluted by 10-fold serially ranging from $10^{-1}$ to $10^{-5}ng/{\mu}l$ for LAMP and PCR assays. The LAMP assay allows the amplification to be finished within 60 min under isothermal conditions of $63^{\circ}C$ by employing 6 oligonucleotide primers designed based on G. lamblia elongation factor 1 alpha ($EF1{\alpha}$) gene sequence. Our tests showed that the specific amplification products were obtained only with G. lamblia, while no amplification products were detected with DNA of other related protozoans. Sensitivity evaluation indicated that the LAMP assay was sensitive 10 times more than PCR. It is concluded that LAMP is a rapid, highly sensitive and specific DNA amplification technique for detection of G. lamblia, which has implications for effective control and prevention of giardiasis.

  • Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a powerful technique in molecular biology and is widely used in various fields. By amplifying DNA fragments, PCR has facilitated gene cloning procedures, as well as molecular genotyping. However, the extraction of DNA from samples often acts as a limiting step of these reactions. In particular, the extraction of PCR-compatible genomic DNA from higher plants requires complicated processes and tedious work because plant cells have rigid cell walls and contain various endogenous PCR inhibitors, including polyphenolic compounds. We recently developed a novel solution, referred to as AnyDirect, which can amplify target DNA fragments directly from whole blood without the need for DNA extraction. Here, we developed a simple lysis system that could produce an appropriate template for direct PCR with AnyDirect PCR buffer, making possible the direct amplification of DNA fragments from plant leaves. Thus, our experimental procedure provides a simple, convenient, non-hazardous, inexpensive, and rapid process for the amplification of DNA from plant tissue.

  • 미토콘드리아 DNA(mtDNA) 상의 조절부위(control region)에는 HV1과 HV2와 같은 과변이부위(hypervariable region)가 있으며, 이 부위에서 사람마다 차이가 나는 많은 SNPs(single nucleotide polymorphism)을 발견할 수 있다. mtDNA 염기서열 분석은 개인식별 및 백골화된 시신등의 신원확인에 유용하게 사용되어왔다. mtDNA상의 cytochrome b(cytb) 유전자는 분자계통학(molecular phylogenetics) 분야에 널리 이용되고 있으며, 법과학 분야에서의 동물 종식별은 다양한 사건 현장 증거물의 인수식별 뿐 아니라 불법 유통되고 있는 각종 동물성 건강식품, 의약품의 원료 규명 및 보호 종의 밀렵 증명 등에 유용하게 적용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 광범위한 동물의 cytochrome b 유전자를 증폭할 수 있는 primer sets (H14724/L15149)와 사람에 특이적인 HV1 부위 primer set (H15997/L16236)를 이용한 동시 증폭을 통해 먼저 사람과 동물을 구별하였고, cytb 증폭산물의 직접 DNA 염기서열 분석을 통해 종식별을 수행하였다. H14724/L15149 primer pair는 닭과 오리를 제외하고 사람, 소, 돼지, 개, 고양이, 생쥐, 쥐의 cytb를 증폭할 수 있었으며, H14841/L15149 primer pair는 닭과 오리도 증폭할 수 있었다. 효모, 곤충 및 세균은 모두 증폭산물이 생산되지 않았으며, H15997/L16236의 경우 사람의 HV1만이 선택적으로 증폭되었다. 또한 실제 사건의 예에서와 같이 본 연구가 혈흔의 종식별에 매우 유용함을 보여주었다.
