Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis directly from sputum by using a prototype automated Q-beta replicase assay.
We have adapted an assay for the direct detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis using a prototype automated instrument platform in which probes are amplified with Q-beta replicase. The assay was based on amplification of specific detector probe following four cycles of background reduction (reversible target capture) in a closed disposable pack. The assay signal was the time required for fluore...
متن کاملNovel, ultrasensitive, Q-beta replicase-amplified hybridization assay for detection of Chlamydia trachomatis.
A sensitive, nonisotopic hybridization assay termed "dual capture" is described. The assay rapidly and specifically detects very low levels of target nucleic acids and organisms. The assay is based on the principles of sandwich hybridization, reversible target capture, and Q-Beta replicase amplification. The assay can be completed in less than 4 h, and in the described model format, it detects ...
متن کاملMechanism for template-independent terminal adenylation activity of Qβ replicase.
The genomic RNA of Qβ virus is replicated by Qβ replicase, a template-dependent RNA polymerase complex. Qβ replicase has an intrinsic template-independent RNA 3'-adenylation activity, which is required for efficient viral RNA amplification in the host cells. However, the mechanism of the template-independent 3'-adenylation of RNAs by Qβ replicase has remained elusive. We determined the structur...
متن کاملAmber mutant of bacteriophage Q capable of causing overproduction of Q replicase.
Amber mutant amB86 of bacteriophage Qbeta is capable of causing the production of five to eight times more viral replicase than wild-type phage. Su(-) bacteria infected with the mutant can carry the viral RNA in a plasmid-like state for many bacterial generations.
متن کاملMinimal requirements for template recognition by bacteriophage Qbeta replicase: approach to general RNA-dependent RNA synthesis.
Any oligo- or polynucleotide able to offer a C-C-C-sequence at the 3'-terminus and a second C-C-C-sequence in a defined steric position to Qbeta replicase is an efficient template. Corresponding chemical modifications convert non-template RNAs to template RNAs.
