Biofyzikální studium malých RNA
Šmerková, Kristýna
Thanks to the prove of connection between the aberrant occurrence of small RNA and various diseases and their potential in diagnostics and treatment led to discovery of new methods and materials facilitating their detection and targeted transport during gene therapy. This work summarizes present knowledge about chosen groups of small RNA, their significance in medical science and the possibilities of their detection. This work primarily concentrates on combination of magnetic separation with electrochemical detection. Magnetic particles (MPs) with different surface modifications were used for isolation. Non-specific isolation was carried out using silanol-coated MPs; streptavidin-coated MPs modified with specific biotinylated probe were used for specific separation. Square wave voltammetry (SWV) was used as a very sensitive electrochemical detection method. Optimized method based on specific magnetic separation with SWV was able to reach nanomolar detection limit (4 nM) with microRNA. The method was applied on human embryonic cells for specific isolation and detection of miR-124. The CdTe quantum dots (QDs) were studied as a nanomaterial tool for nucleic acid detection. The QDs were modified with streptavidin for their bioconjugation with biotinylated molecules were used. Interaction of QDs with nucleic acids was studied using capillary electrophoresis.
