摘要

(US20150104789) Described are probes and methods for detecting antibiotic susceptibility of a specimen.  The method comprises contacting the specimen with an oligonucleotide probe that specifically hybridizes with a target nucleic acid sequence region of ribosomal RNA.  The target sequence is at the junction between a pre-ribosomal RNA tail and mature ribosomal RNA of 23S or 16S rRNA.  Performing the method in the presence and absence of an antibiotic permits detection of antibiotic susceptibility.

主权利要求

(US20150104789) 1. A method for determining whether a sample of bacteria is susceptible to an antibiotic agent, the method comprising the steps of: (a) contacting a specimen obtained from the sample with an oligonucleotide probe or pair of probes in the absence of the agent, wherein the probe or pair of probes specifically hybridizes to a target sequence over the full length of the target sequence, wherein the target sequence comprises 25-35 contiguous nucleotides of bacterial ribosomal RNA (rRNA) spanning a splice site between a pre-ribosomal RNA (prRNA) tail and mature ribosomal RNA (mrRNA); (b) contacting a specimen obtained from the sample with the probe or pair of probes in the presence of the antibiotic agent; (c) detecting the relative amounts of probe hybridization to the target sequence in the specimens of (a) and (b); (d) identifying the sample as susceptible to antibiotic treatment if the amount of probe hybridization to the target sequence in step (b) is reduced by at least 80% relative to the amount of probe hybridization to the target sequence in step (a). 14. A method for determining the antibiotic efficacy of a candidate antibiotic agent, the method comprising the steps of: (a) contacting a specimen obtained from the sample with an oligonucleotide probe or pair of probes in the absence of the agent, wherein the probe or pair of probes specifically hybridizes to a target sequence over the full length of the target sequence, wherein the target sequence comprises 25-35 contiguous nucleotides of bacterial ribosomal RNA (rRNA) spanning a splice site between pre-ribosomal RNA (prRNA) tail and mature ribosomal RNA (mrRNA); (b) contacting a specimen obtained from the sample with the probe or pair of probes in the presence of the agent; (c) detecting the relative amounts of probe hybridization to the target sequence in the specimens of (a) and (b); (d) identifying the agent as effective if the amount of probe hybridization to the target sequence in step (b) is reduced by at least 80% relative to the amount of probe hybridization to the target sequence in step (a). 15. A device for detecting pre-rRNA in a bacterial sample, the device comprising an oligonucleotide probe immobilized on a solid support, wherein the oligonucleotide probe is between about 10 to 50 nucleotides in length and is capable of selectively hybridizing to a target sequence over the full length of the target sequence, wherein the target sequence comprises 25-35 contiguous nucleotides of bacterial ribosomal RNA (rRNA) spanning a splice site between pre-ribosomal RNA (prRNA) tail and mature ribosomal RNA (mrRNA). 17. A kit comprising a pair of oligonucleotide probes selected from: (a) E. coli (all enterobacteriaceae) probes:(SEQ ID NO: 5)5'-AAGCCTCACGGTTCATTand(SEQ ID NO: 6)GGCGTTGTAAGGTT;(b) Pseudomonas aeruginosa probes:(SEQ ID NO: 7)5'-AAGCCTCACGGGCAATTand(SEQ ID NO: 8)GGTGTTATATGGTC;(c) Streptococcus pyogenes probes:(SEQ ID NO: 9)AAGTCCTCGAGCTATTand(SEQ ID NO: 10)ATTTCTTTTTGGAT;and(d) Staphylococcus aureus probes(SEQ ID NO: 11)AAGTCTTCGATCGATTand(SEQ ID NO: 12)CATTTATTTTGATT. 18. A method for monitoring the growth rate of a bacterial culture, the method comprising: (a) contacting a specimen obtained from the culture with a probe or pair of probes that specifically hybridizes to a target sequence over the full length of the target sequence, wherein the target sequence comprises 25-35 contiguous nucleotides of bacterial ribosomal RNA (rRNA) spanning a splice site between pre-ribosomal RNA (prRNA) tail and mature ribosomal RNA (mrRNA); (b) detecting the amount of probe hybridization to the target sequence in the specimen of (a) relative to an earlier time point or other control. (c) identifying the culture as growing if the amount of probe hybridization to the target sequence in step (b) is increasing relative to the amount of probe hybridization to the target sequence at the earlier time point.
