The derivative is useful as a labelling reagent for introducing a biotin group into a nucleic acid or a protein.

Description: The present invention relates to a novel biotin group-containing carbodiimide derivative which is useful as a reagent for introducing a biotin group as a label into a nucleic acid or a protein. For detection of nucleic acid, labelling of nucleic acid has heretofore been conducted by introducing, into the nucleic acid, a radioisotope (e.g. 32 P, 14 C or 3 H) as a label compound by a nick translation method, a random primer method, a tailing method or the like. The detection of nucleic acid by using such a radioisotope-labelled nucleic acid, generally has problems in safety, economy, stability, etc. although the method has specificity and a high sensitivity. That is, the radioisotope used must be stored and applied in view of the half-life and allows for neither long-term storage nor repeated use. Further, the radioisotope is generally harmful to human body and must be handled and stored with strict care (a special facility is required for the handling and storage). Hence, labelling of nucleic acid or protein with a non-radioactive label substance is in wide use. In particular, a method of using biotin (biotin has a high affinity with avidin or streptavidin) is in wide use. As such a method, there is generally used a method which comprises introducing biotin into a nucleic acid, bonding the biotin introduced into the nucleic acid, to an enzyme-labelled avidin, and measuring the activity of the enzyme. As the method for introducing biotin into a nucleic acid, a method proposed by Langer et al. is well known which comprises bonding biotin to a pyrimidine ring via a linker to form a 2'-deoxyuridine triphosphate derivative [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., USA, 78, 6633-6637 (1981)] and introducing the derivative into a nucleic acid by the nick translation method [Rigby et al., J. Mol. Biol., 113, 237-257 (1977)], the random primer method [Feinberg and Vogelstein, Anal. Biochem., 137, 266-267 (1983)], or the tailing method [Riley et al., DNA, 5, 333-337 (1986)]. Also, a method was developed which uses a compound obtained by bonding biotin to a photoactive aromatic azide by the use of a linker arm [Forster et al., Nucl. Acids Res., 13, 745-761 (1985)]. As such a compound, Photobiotin R (a product of BRESA Co.) is commercially available. Other methods such as the followings are also known. A method using a diazo compound [M. Shiga et al., Anal. Sci., 9, 553-556 (1993)]; a method using biotin hydrazide [Reisfeld et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., 142, 519 (1987)]; a method which comprises bonding a biotin derivative having an amino group as a side chain, such as biotin hydrazide derivative, biotin spermine derivative or the like, to a nucleic acid by the use of a bifunctional crosslinking agent such as glutaraldehyde, bisepoxide or the like [Japanese Patent Application Kokai (Laid-Open) No. 228500/1989; AL-Hakim, A.H. et al., Biochemical J., 251, 935 (1988)]; a method using a formyl group-containing biotin derivative [Japanese Patent Application Kokai (Laid-Open) No. 92968/ 1994]; and so forth. Introduction of biotin into protein can be conducted by reacting the free amino group of the protein with a p-nitrophenyl ester of biotin [Bondanszky, M. and Fogan, D.T., J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 99, 235 (1977)] or an N-hydroxysuccinimide ester of biotin [Jasiewicz, M.L. et al., Exp. Cell. Res., 100 , 213 (1976)]. For conducting the introduction, there are also known a method of using a diazoanilide derivative [Bayer, E.A. et al., Methods Biochem. Anal., 26, (1980)]; a method of using a hydrazide derivative [Heitzmann, H. et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., USA, 71, 3537 (1974)]; and so forth. The above-mentioned method using an enzyme (e.g. the nick translation method, the random primer method and the tailing method) has various problems. For example, a long time (ordinarily, 1 hour or longer) is required for labelling; strict temperature control (15-37°C) is necessary; and no labelling is possible for single-stranded nucleic acids in the nick translation method. Further in the enzyme method, the labelled nucleic acid fragments have a wide molecular weight distribution, often generating nucleic acid fragments of low molecular weight; the labelled nucleic acid synthesized has a restricted length and it is impossible to synthesize a labelled nucleic acid longer than that; the labelling operation has many steps and is complicated. Furthermore in the enzyme method, biotin introduction into a short nucleic acid (e.g. a nucleic acid oligomer) ent impossible; and the enzyme and the biotinylating reagent (i.e. a nucleoside triphosphate-biotin adduct) both used in labelling are very unstable and must be handled and stored carefully. In the nucleic acid-labelling method using a compound obtained by bonding biotin to a photoactive aromatic azide by the use of a linker arm, the labelling reaction is complete in a relatively short time; however, there are problems in that the reaction must be conducted in a dark place because the above compound containing a photoactive azide group has low stability to light, a special light source must be used in the reaction, thus the reagent handling or storage and the operation employed are complicated. Further in the above method, the efficiency of labelling of relatively short nucleic acid is low, making impossible the biotin introduction into short nucleic acid (e.g. nucleic acid oligomer). In the nucleic acid-labelling method using a formyl group-containing biotin, the Schiff base formed between aldehyde and amino group is easily hydrolyzed and unstable, and the labelled nucleic acid must be reduced for stabilization. In the nucleic acid-labelling method using a diazo group, since the diazo group-containing biotin is insoluble in water, an organic solvent such as chloroform or the like must be used. In the method of introducing, into a nucleic acid, a biotin hydrazide derivative or the like having an amino group as a side chain, by the use of a bifunctional crosslinking agent, side reactions between biotin hydrazide molecules or between nucleic acid molecules take place easily, which tends to invite reductions in labelling efficiency, specificity of hybridization, etc. Also in the labelling method of protein (conducted by the methods mentioned above for the labelling of nucleic acid), there are problems basically same as those present in the labelling of nucleic acid. Hence, it has been strongly desired recently to develop a reagent which allows for the introduction of biotin into nucleic acid or protein, simply and efficiently in a short time without using a special reactor or special reaction conditions. It is well 1 known that carbodiimide compounds are reactive toward nucleic acids. For example, carbodiimide compounds react with guanine and thymine bases in nucleic acid, having no hydrogen bond, to form adducts [P.T. Gilham, J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 84, 688 (1962)]. The present inventors made an extensive study on the simple and highly efficient introduction of biotin into nucleic acid or protein. As a result, by utilizing the high reactivity of carbodiimide group with nucleic acid, protein, etc. and also by introducing a biotin group into a carbodiimide compound, a reagent has been successfully developed which can introduce biotin into a nucleic acid or a protein and thereby allows for biotin labelling of the nucleic acid or the protein efficiently in a short time.

The synthesis of the present carbodiimide derivative as a biotin-introducing reagent can be achieved generally by converting a primary amine as starting material to a urea or thiourea derivative and subjecting the derivative to dehydration or oxidative sulfur elimination. When a symmetrical carbodiimide derivative is synthesized, there can also be used a reaction for subjecting an isocyanate compound to condensation associated with decarbonylation. For example, a primary amine (II) is condensed with urea to obtain a mono-substituted urea (III); the mono-substituted urea (III) is reacted with a second primary amine or the same primary amine (IV) to obtain a di-substituted urea intermediate (V). That is, a primary amine (II) or a salt thereof and urea are heated in water or other appropriate solvent to give rise to a reaction for several hours; to the reaction mixture or to the separated mono-substituted urea (III) is added a second primary amine or the same primary amine (IV), and a reaction is conducted under the same conditions; thereby, a di-substituted urea intermediate (V) can be synthesized [T.L. Davis and K.C. Blanchard, Org, Synth. Coll., Vol. 1 , 453, (1941)]. The mono-substituted urea (III) can be synthesized also by reacting a primary amine (II) with cyanic acid or a salt thereof [F. Kurzer, Org. Synth. Coll., Vol. 4 , 49 (1963)]. The thus-obtained mono-substituted urea derivative (III) can be converted to a di-substituted urea derivative (V) by the above-mentioned method. When a di-substituted urea derivative (V) is obtained directly, a reaction between an isocyanate compound (VI) and a primary amine (IV) can be used [J.H. Saunders and R. Slocombe, Chem. Rev., 43, 203 (1948)]. Meanwhile, a di-substituted thiourea derivative (VIII) is generally synthesized by reacting a primary amine (IV) with an isothiocyanate (VII) [N.A. Ivanov, R.V. Viasova, V.A. Gancharava and L.N. Smirnov, Izv. Vyssh. Uchebn. Zaved. Khim. Khim. Tekhnol., 19 (7), 1010 (1976)]. The di-substituted thiourea derivative (VIII) can be synthesized also by reacting a primary amine (II) with carbon disulfide [W.W. Levis, Jr. and E.A. Waipert, U.S. Pat. 3,168,560 (1965)]. The thus-synthesized di-substituted urea derivative (V) or di-substituted thiourea derivative (VIII) can be converted to a carbodiimide derivative (IX) by dehydration or oxidative sulfur elimination. The synthesis of the carbodiimide derivative (IX) by dehydration of the di-substituted urea derivative (V) can be easily achieved by heating the urea derivative (V) with p-toluenesulfonic acid chloride in a tertiary amine [G. Amiard and R. Heymes, Bull. Soc. Chim. Fr., 1360 (1956)]. The dehydration of the di-substituted urea derivative (V) can be conducted also by reacting the urea derivative (V) with p-toluenesul fonic acid chloride and potassium carbonate in the presence of a quaternary ammonium salt [Zsuzsa M. Jaszay et al., Synthesis, 520 (1987)]. The sulfur elimination from the di-substituted thiourea derivative (VIII) is conducted generally by using mercury oxide as a sulfur-eliminating agent. The solvent preferably used in this reaction includes, for example, ether, benzene and acetone. As the sulfur-eliminating agent other than mercury oxide, there can be used lead oxide [F. Zetzehe and A. Fredrich, Chem. Ber., 73, 1114 (1940)], zinc oxide [R.F. Coles, U.S. Pat. 2,946,819 (1960)], lead carbonate, lead nitrate and lead chloride [J.C. Sheehan, U.S. Pat. 3,135,748 (1964)], etc. The thiourea derivative (VIII) can also be reacted with sodium hypochlorite in an alkaline solution to obtain a carbodiimide derivative (IX) [H. Stetter and C. Wulff, Chem. Ber., 95 , 2302 (1962)]. For example, the thiourea derivative (VIII) is reacted with sodium hypochlorite, sodium carbonate and copper chloride in a solvent such as methylene chloride or the like at a temperature of 0°C or less for 24 hours; thereafter, separation and purification is conducted by an ordinary method to obtain a carbodiimide derivative (IX). The thus-obtained carbodiimide derivative (IX) is reacted with a halogenated biotin, preferably brominated or iodinated biotin, whereby a carbodiimide derivative of formula (I) according to the present invention can be obtained. The carbodiimide derivative of the present invention is useful as a biotin-introducing reagent used for biotin labelling of nucleic acid or protein. For example, biotin labelling of a nucleic acid by introducing a biotin group into the nucleic acid using the carbodiimide derivative of the present invention can be conducted very simply and in a short time, merely by mixing the carbodiimide derivative of the present invention and the nucleic acid in an appropriate buffer solution (e.g. a borate buffer solution) and reacting them at room temperature to about 100°C, preferably at room temperature to about 90°C for about 1-10 minutes. The introduction of biotin group using the present carbodiimide derivative can be made to any nucleic acids of various lengths and shapes (e.g. single-stranded and double-stranded) which can be procured generally. For example, while biotin introduction to relatively short-chain nucleic acid (e.g. nucleic acid oligomer) is impossible in the enzyme method or the method using a photoactive azide group-containing compound, both mentioned above, biotin introduction can be efficiently conducted even to such a relatively short-chain nucleic acid with the carbodiimide derivative of the present invention. Further, while in the enzyme method, the labelling reaction tends to invite reduction in molecular weight and consequently biotin introduction to long-chain nucleic acid is impossible, either, efficient biotin introduction even to long-chain nucleic acid (e.g. M13 type or λ type nucleic acid) without reduction in molecular weight is possible with the carbodiimide derivative of the present invention. Furthermore, the efficient biotin introduction to short-chain or long-chain nucleic acid with the present carbodiimide derivative is possible even when the nuclei c acid is single-stranded or double-stranded. Moreover, the carbodiimide derivative of the present invention is stable even in an aqueous solution in a dark place. For example, when an aqueous solution of the present compound is allowed to stand in a laboratory room for about a month, there is no change in the properties of the compound; thus, the present compound requires no special control in handling and storage. Proteins can be subjected to the same biotin labelling as above, with the carbodiimide derivative of the present invention. The nucleic acid or protein biotin-labelled as above can be purified by various methods such as ethanol precipitation, fractionation with Sephadex G-50 (a carrier for gel filtration chromatography, a product of Pharmacia Co.), electrophoresis and the like; or can be used for hybridization as it is. The biotin-labelled nucleic acid or protein before or after purification can be stored for a long period of time. The biotin-labelled nucleic acid or protein can be used for detection of nucleic acids or proteins generally as follows. The nucleic acids or proteins, which can be detected, include those of animal, plant and microorganism origin. First in the case of nucleic acid detection, a nucleic acid immobilized on a solid phase (e.g. a membrane for blotting, a microtiter plate or beads) by covalent bonding, physical adsorption or the like is contacted with a biotin-labelled probe; they are subjected to hybridization; thereafter, unreacted biotin-labelled probe is removed by washing. The solid phase carrier used for immoblization of nucleic acid includes, for example, a nylon membrane, a nitrocellulose membrane, a denatured cellulose membrane and a polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membrane. As the method for immobilizing a nucleic acid to be detected, on a solid phase, there can be used a per se known method such as Southern blotting, dot blotting, colony plaque blotting or the like [Maniatis, M., Molecular Cloning, 1989]. The hybridization between nucleic acid immobilized on solid phase and biotin-labelled nucleic acid can be conducted using such a solution and such a temperature as considered to be most appropriate in view of, for example, (1) the length of the base portions subjected to hybridization and (2) the sequence of the nucleic acid. In order to suppress non-specific adsorption, a Denhardt's solution, skim milk, sodium salt of lauryl sulfate or the like may be added as necessary. Next, the hybridization product is contacted with an avidin or streptavidin labelled with an enzyme, a fluorescent substance or the like, to allow the biotin of the probe (bonded to the nucleic acid immobilized on the solid phase carrier) to form a biotin-avidin composite or a biotin-streptavidin composite. The composite is subjected to measurement of enzymatic activity, fluorescent intensity or the like and detected. When the measurement of enzymatic activity is conducted, there is used a composite between avidin or streptavidin and an enzyme (e.g. alkaline phosphatase, peroxidase, β-galactosidase or glucose oxidase); thereto is added a substrate which develops a color or emits a light by an enzymatic reaction; and the degree of color development, the intensity of light emission or the like obtained is measured to determine the enzymatic activity. Meanwhile, the biotin-labelled protein can be subjected also to enzyme immunoassay (EIA). In this case, a target substance is captured on a solid phase carrier (e.g. membrane, microtiter plate or beads) to which an antibody has been bonded; a biotin-labelled antibody is captured to bond the biotin to the target substance. Thereafter, the same detection as for nucleic acid can be used. By these detections, nucleic acids and proteins can be detected at a high sensitivity because (1) the coupling constant of biotin-avidin composite is very high (10 -15 mole -1 ) (Green, N.M., Adv. Protein Chem., Vol. 29, p.85, 1975) and (2) avidin has four bonding sites to biotin. As stated above, use of the carbodiimide derivative of the present invention allows for highly efficient introduction of biotin group into nucleic acid or protein without requiring any special reactor or reaction conditions; and use of a thus-obtained biotin-labelled nucleic acid or protein allows for detection of nucleic acids or proteins of organism origin at a high sensitivity. The present invention is hereinafter described more specifically by way of Examples.

(a product of Takara Shuzo Co., Ltd.), 0.1 M borate buffer (pH 8.5), 0.25% SDS, 0.1 M compound 30-1] was incubated at 85°C for 1 minute to conduct biotin labelling of DNA. To remove unreacted carbobiotin, 3 M sodium acetate of 1/9 time the volume of the sample and cold ethanol of 2.5 times the volume of the sample were added, followed by mixing. The resulting mixture was allowed to stand at -80°C for 45 minutes. Centrifugation was conducted using a centrifuge (H-1500 FR made in Japan), at 12,000 rpm at 4°C for 15 minutes. The upper layer was removed; 500 µℓ of 70% ethanol was added; and centrifugation was conducted at 12,000 rpm at 4°C for 1 minute and 30 seconds. The upper layer was removed; the residue was dissolved in 100 µℓ of sterilized water; and the solution was stored at -20°C. Use Example 2: Dot blotting detection The biotin-labelled DNA obtained in Use Example 1 was subjected to dot blotting detection in the following manner. (Immobilization of DNA) The DNA concentration in the biotin-labelled DNA solution was examined using an UV tester (UV-VISIBLE RECORDING SPECTROPHOTOMETER UV-2100, a product of Shimadzu Corporation). Then, dilutions of the biotin-labelled DNA were prepared and each 1 µℓ of the dilutions was dot-blotted on a nylon membrane (Hybond N , a product of Amersham K.K.). The membrane was dried, after which UV-crosslinking was conducted using UV Stratalinker R (a product of STRATAGENE) to immobilize the DNA on the membrane.

Maniatis et al., Molecular Cloning, second edition, p. 6 (1989), Cold Spring Harbor], and migration was conducted at 100 V for 2 hours. Then, the gel end was cut off and immersed in a denaturing solution [0.2 N NaOH, 0.6 M NaCl]. The mixture was shaken for 30 minutes. Then, the gel was washed with deionized water and immersed in a neutralizing solution [0.24 M Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 0.6 M NaCl] for 30 minutes twice. The DNA in the resulting gel was transferred on a nylon membrane immersed in deionized water and a two-fold diluted SSC solution, by the use of a two-fold diluted SSC solution in one night.
