What is pyrosequencing ?

Real time diagnostic DNA “ sequencing by synthesis ”

based on actual short segment sequencing (<100bp )

at a speed of 1 min / nucleotide

Unlike Sanger sequencing ( chain termination with dideoxynucleotides),

PSQ relies on pyrophosphate detection on nucleotide incorporation

Can produce clinically relevant results in < 6 hrs from clinical samples

Flexible & adaptable to regional prevalence specifics & new mutations

• DNA extraction

• PCR amplification of 8 specific targets

• Post PCR, biotinylated ss DNA template is

coupled to streptavidin coated beads

• Pyrosequencing

• Software analysis search for 100% identity match in

target library containing all expected mutations

Page 9: Pyrosequencing Experience from Mumbai, India · PyroMark Q24 PyroMark Q96 ID PyroMark Q96 MD PyroMark Q48/ Q96 MD Automated Throughput 1–24 samples 1–96 samples 1–96 samples

1. Iterative dNTP dispensation only 1 at a time the order determined by known mutations

2. Incorporation of dNTP generates PPi .

3. PPi reacts with substrate & triggers a series of

chemical reactions catalyzed by enzymes.

4. Nucleotide incorporation catalyses a flash of light

5. Apyrase degrades unincorporated dNTP & ATP

6. Pyrogram shows a sequential event of dNTPs

incorporated

Pyrosequencing : cascade of enzymatic reactions

Mechanisms that underlie resistance

Drug resistance in M. tuberculosis is a mixed bag: significant heterogeneity is present with

low, moderate & high level phenotypic resistance

In high incidence settings

an average of 17% of new TB cases, can be multiply infected

PSQ : challenges

• Homopolymers (more than 3-4)

Homopolymer string (mainly T) regions influence synchronized extension & synthesis of DNA strand

causing non uniform sequence peak heights, affecting read length & possibly cause sequence errors

• In Smear negative, low sensitivity of gyrA & rpoB

• Indeterminate readings (instruments issues, mixed population, new minority mutations)

• Technical expertise essential

• PSQ currently standardised for XDR defining drugs

Advantages for WGS Sequencing

1) WGS captures complete genetic mutational profile in one test.

2) New mutations identified that relate to adaptive responses (compensatory mutations).

WGS for DR conferring mutations

XDR drugs : <10% ( LPA WT absent with no mutant)

Oral FLD : Ethambutol , PZA

Oral SLD : Ethionamide, PAS, cycloserine

Re purposed drugs : CFZ, LZD

New Drugs : BDG, DLD
