Abstract Strand displacement amplification (SDA) is an isothermal, in vitro method for diagnostics that amplifies a target DNA sequence by using a restriction enzyme and DNA polymerase. We have combined a new thermophilic form of SDA that involves restriction enzyme BsoBI and polymerase exo-Bca with fluorescence polarization for detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA by using the IS6110 insertion element as the target sequence. A 5'-fluorescein-labeled oligodeoxynucleotide detector probe hybridizes to the amplified product as it rises in concentration during SDA, and the single- to double-stranded conversion is monitored through an increase in fluorescence polarization. The associated change in polarization upon amplification of the target sequence is enhanced by specific polymerase binding to the double-stranded detector probe. Fewer than 10 M. tuberculosis genomes can be amplified and detected with an extremely simple protocol that takes only 20 min and uses relatively simple instrumentation and reagents, all of which can be purchased off-the-shelf.

Abstract Strand displacement amplification (SDA) is an isothermal, in vitro method of amplifying a DNA sequence for diagnostic purposes. We have combined SDA with fluorescence polarization detection in a closed, homogeneous format. A fluorescently labeled oligodeoxynucleotide detector probe hybridizes to the amplification product that increases in concentration during SDA. The single- to double-stranded conversion of the probe is accompanied by an increase in fluorescence polarization values, which can be measured in real-time without physical manipulation of the sample. The probe was labeled with the near-infrared dye La Jolla Blue, and fluorescence polarization was measured on a transient-state fluorometer. We have applied this homogeneous SDA/detection system to a target DNA sequence specific for Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA.
