Subject [Scientific publications] Application of PNA: Detection of the toxic dinoflagellate
Content

PNAs can be used in many of the applications where traditional synthetic DNA or RNA have been used, but with the added benefits of tighter binding, greater specificity and stability. Here is the reference using PNA
probe to detect the toxic dinoflagellate Takayama pulchella.

Abstract

 
A peptide nucleic acid (PNA) probe was developed to detect the toxic dinoflagellate, Takayama pulchella TPXM, using fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) combined with epifluorescent microscopy and flow cytometry. The PNA probe was then used to analyze HAB samples from Xiamen Bay. The results indicated that the fluorescein phosphoramidite (FAM)-labeled probe (PNATP28S01) [Flu]-OO ATG CCA TCT CAA GA, entered the algal cells easily and bound to the target species specifically. High hybridization efficiency (nearly 100%) was observed. Detection by epifluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry gave comparable results. The fluorescence intensity of the PNA probe hybridized to T. pulchella cells was remarkably higher than that of two DNA probes used in this study and than the autofluorescence of the blank and negative control cells. In addition, the hybridization condition of the PNA probe was easier to control than DNA probes, and when applied to field-collected samples, the PNA probe showed higher binding efficiency to the target species than DNA probes. With the observed high specificity, binding efficiency, and detection signal intensity, the PNA probe will be useful for monitoring harmful algal blooms of T. pulchella.
