Research | Finds new route to Monkeypox detection

0
Ministry of Science & Technology-india bureaucracy
Ministry of Science & Technology-idiabureaucracy

Scientists have unveiled a groundbreaking approach to understanding the Monkeypox Virus (MPV), also known as Mpox virus, by identifying unique features in its genome that could revolutionize diagnostics and therapeutic strategies. With MPV declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) twice in the past three years, the virus’s rapid and unanticipated global spread underscores the urgent need for innovative solutions. Current detection methods, such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR), rely on amplifying viral DNA but face limitations, including difficulties in distinguishing specific from non-specific amplification products. Addressing these challenges, researchers have turned to noncanonical DNA structures as novel targets for diagnostics.

One such structure, the G-quadruplex (GQ), is formed by guanine-rich DNA sequences folding into unique conformations. Scientists from the Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR) have identified and characterized conserved GQ-forming sequences in the MPV genome. These sequences, absent in other poxviruses, pathogens, and the human genome, hold immense potential for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Leveraging this discovery, the team developed BBJL, a fluorescent molecular probe that selectively binds to MPV-specific GQ structures, resulting in a 250-fold enhancement in fluorescence output. This innovative probe sets a new benchmark for accuracy in MPV detection by reliably distinguishing target sequences from other DNA conformations.

Beyond diagnostics, the study highlights the therapeutic potential of these GQ sequences. Stable under physiological conditions, they could serve as targets for antiviral interventions. Ongoing research aims to map additional GQ targets within the MPV genome, further expanding the possibilities for therapeutic development. The BBJL probe, an extension of earlier work on SARS-CoV-2 detection platforms, demonstrates how GQ-targeted strategies can address limitations of existing methods, such as false positives from non-specific amplification.

This discovery represents a significant step forward in MPV research, offering valuable tools for precise detection and new avenues for antiviral development. By exploring the unique properties of noncanonical nucleic acid structures, the study provides a foundation for innovative solutions to combat MPV and other viral threats, marking a pivotal moment in the field of virology and public health.
