Novel design of nucleic acid standards for hydrolysis probe-based PCR with melting analysis

Probe-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR), a popular method in genetic testing, could be prone to false positive or positively biased results if standards used for positive controls or as calibrants accidentally contaminate samples during analysis. To prevent this, a unique design strategy for nucleic acid standards has been developed. Several in-house designed synthetic standards and corresponding test targets were analysed in specific probe-based PCR assays in the presence of SYTO 82™, an intercalating dye compatible with a probe-labelling FAM (6-Carboxyfluorescein) fluorophore. PCR was followed by melting and fragment size analyses. We showed that a standard can be designed to allow discrimination from the test target in post-PCR melting analysis based on differences in melting temperature (Tm). A good predictor of Tm differences for the paired amplicons was the software package uMelt, but not the length of the amplicons nor guanine-cytosine (GC) content. Tm-based determination can be complimented by electrophoresis to measure differences in amplicons' length. Designing genetic standards using the described method for tests that utilise probe-based PCR will prevent false positive and inaccurate results, while also simplifying the test and reducing its cost.
