- the devices and the related methodologies of this invention allow molecular biology and diagnostic reactions to be carried out under "complete electronic control.”
- electronic control as referred to in this invention goes beyond the conventional connotation of the term.
- Most conventional electronic devices, instruments, and detector systems are always at some level under electronic control.
- the electronic devices of this invention are not only under conventional electronic control, but more importantly, they also provide further direct electronic control over the physical aspects of carrying out molecular biological and diagnostic reactions.

- Probes or specific binding entities can couple to attachment sites in the permeation layer. Details of various permeation layers can be found in U.S. Application Serial Nos. 10/014,895, filed December 10, 2001; 09/464,670, filed December 15, 1999, now issued as U.S. Patent No. 6,303,082; and 09/922/349, filed August 3, 2001, all of which are herein expressly incorporated by reference in their entirety.
- the device After the initial fabrication of the basic microelectronic structure, the device is able to self-direct the addressing of each specific microlocation with specific binding entities or capture probes.
- the devices and methods of this invention can be combined into an instrument system that allows addressing of an APEX chip device with any DNA or RNA probe, or any other ligand.
- Such a system allows "make your own chip” products and applications. Such products and applications would be useful to many researchers and end users for clinical diagnostic, molecular biology, functional genomic and drug discovery applications.
- the self-addressed device is subsequently Attorney Docket: 612,404-477
- the device is able to actively carry out individual multi-step and combinatorial reactions at any of its microlocations.
- the device is able to carry out multiplex reactions, but with the important advantage that each reaction occurs at the equivalent of a truly independent test site.
- the device is able to electronically direct and control the rapid movement and concentration of analytes and reactants to or from any of its microlocations.
- the ability of the device to electronically control the dynamic aspects of various reactions provides a number of new mechanisms and important advantages and improvements.
- Certain of the devices e.g., the APEX device as described in Serial No. 08/146,504, referenced above, are primarily DC (direct current) electrical devices. Electrophoretic transport of charged molecules occurs between oppositely (+/-) biased microlocations on the device surface.
- APEX type devices produce significant net direct current (DC) flow when a voltage is applied, which is recognized as "the signature of electrophoresis.”
- DC direct current
- electrophoresis the migration of ions or charged particles is produced by electrical forces along the direction of the electric field gradient, and the relationship of current and voltage are important to this technology.
- the electrophoretic migration shows itself macroscopically as the conduction of electric current in a solution under the influence of an applied voltage and follows Ohm's law.
- V is the electric potential
- the resistance of the solution is the reciprocal of the conductance, which can be measured by a conductometer.
- the conductance depends mainly on the ionic species of the buffer/electrolytes and their concentration; therefore these parameters are very important for electric field related molecular biology technology.
- the basic current/voltage relationships are essentially the same for the APEX technology as for any other electrophoretic system, although the electric fields produced are in truly microscopic environments.
- an amino acid in its zwitterionic state (OOC-CH(R)-NHs + ) will have a conductance value that will be approximately 1000 fold lower than when the "amino acid moiety" has a full net positive charge (HOOC-CH(R)-NH 2 + X " ), or a full negative charge (Y + " 0OC-CH(R)-NH 2 ).
- HOOC-CH(R)-NH 2 + X " HOOC-CH(R)-NH 2 + X "
- Y + " 0OC-CH(R)-NH 2 a formal negative or positive charge develops on the amino acid moiety as it moves away from its pi, and the conductivity and ionic strength will begin to correlate.
- the conductance will be much lower than is expected for that given ionic strength or concentration.
- electrophoresis texts refer to the Good Buffers and amino acid buffers as having "low conductance's at high ionic strength or concentration" (see page 88 of Capillary Electrophoresis: Principles and Practice", R. Kuhn and S. Hoffstetter, Springer - Verlag, 1993).
- a commonly used electrophoresis buffer “Tris-Borate” actually has a significantly lower conductivity than would be expected from its ionic strength or concentration. This may be due to the "tris cation” and “borate anion” forming a relatively stable zwitterionic complex in solution.
- the conductivity of a 100 mM Tris- Borate solution was determined to be 694 ⁇ S/cm, which is approximately 20 times lower than would be expected from its ionic strength, and is roughly equivalent to a 5 mM sodium phosphate or sodium chloride solution.
- Table 1 shows conductivity measurements of a number of transport buffers.
- Amino acid buffers have buffer properties at their pi's. While a given amino acid may or may not have its "highest buffering capacity" at its pi, it will have some degree of buffering capacity. Buffer capacity decreases by a factor of 10 for every pH unit difference between the pi and the pKa; those amino acids with three ionizable groups (histidine, cysteine, lysine, glutamic acid, aspartic acid, etc.) generally have higher buffering capacities at their pi's than those amino acids with only two ionizable groups (glycine, alanine, leucine, etc.).
- histidine has relatively good buffering capacity at their pi's relative to alanine or glycine, which have relatively low buffering capacities at their pi's (see AX. Lehninger, Biochemistry, 2ed, Worth Publishers, New York, 1975; in particular Fig. 4-8 on page 79, and Fig. 4-9 on page 80).
- Histidine has been proposed as a buffer for use in gel electrophoresis, see, e.g., U.S. Patent 4,936,963, but hybridization is not performed in such systems. Cysteine is in a more intermediate position, with regard to buffering
- the pi of cysteine is 5.02
- the pKa for the ⁇ -carboxyl group is 1.71
- the pKa for the ⁇ -carboxyl group is 1.71
- the instant invention also relates to our discoveries concerning the various parameters, electrolytes (buffers), and other conditions that improve or optimize the speed of DNA transport, the efficiency of DNA hybridization reactions, and the overall hybridization specificity in electric field molecular biology devices, especially APEX microelectronic chips and devices, hi particular, this invention relates to our discovery that low conductance zwitterionic buffer solutions containing a reducing agent provides good conditions for both rapid electrophoretic DNA transport and efficient hybridization reactions.
- the zwitterionic buffer component can be any molecule that can have a zwitterionic species (no net charge at its pi).
- the zwitterionic species is an amino acid.
- the amino acid can include, but is not limited to, histidine, alanine, arginine, glutamic acid, lysine, ⁇ -aminobutyric acid (GABA), etc.
- the amino acid is Histidine.
- the concentration of histidine can range from 10-200 mM, alternatively 10-100 mM, alternatively 50-100 mM, alternatively about 50 Attorney Docket: 612,404-477
- the concentration of histidine in the buffer will depend on the salt composition and can be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art.
- histidine buffer is particularly important for the APEX chip type devices. These particular devices (as opposed to the micromachined type devices) have limitations as to the amount of current and voltages that can be applied. This limitation makes it difficult to achieve both rapid transport and efficient hybridization using the same buffer system.
- DNA transport was carried out in a low conductance buffer (cysteine or alanine) where the limited current/voltage still produced rapid transport. Under these conditions, the DNA accumulated at the test site, but did not hybridize as efficiently. After transport in these low conductance buffers, the solution was changed to a high salt buffer (> 100 mM sodium chloride or sodium phosphate), which then produced an efficient hybridization at the test site.
- a low conductance buffer cyste or alanine
- Table 2 shows the results for a series of experiments that correlate the parameters of buffer capacity, pH, and the conductivity, with DNA accumulation and hybridization sensitivity (efficiency) using the APEX chip device.
- histidine As reflected in the sensitivity data in Table 2, histidine provides over four orders of magnitude better hybridization efficiency then either cysteine or other buffers, such as 20 mM NaPO 4 .
- the improvement relative to cysteine is at least a factor of 10, alternatively a factor of 10 2 , and alternatively at least a factor of 10 4 .
- Histidine was found to provide both good transport and good DNA/DNA hybridization efficiency.
- 3 shows the possible mechanism for histidine stabilization of DNA structures.
- the histidine molecule becomes protonated and more dicationic with a positive charge on both the ⁇ -amino group and imidazole ring, the molecule begins to stabilize the double-stranded DNA structures, promoting hybridization at the positive electrode on the APEX chip.
- Cations, dications, and polycations are known to help stabilize DNA/DNA hybrids by reducing the repulsion of the negatively charged phosphate backbones on the double-stranded DNA structure.
- DNA/DNA/Histidine may also form some type of stabilizing adduct from other electrochemical products being produced at the positive electrode (hydrogen peroxide, etc.).
- the advantage of the histidine and associated buffers is particularly important for the APEX microchip type devices. These particular devices are covered with thinner permeation layer (about 1 to 10 microns), as opposed to deep well devices (about 10 to 100 micron permeation layers) and micromachined or macroscopic type devices (sample preparation, complexity reduction, amplification, electronic dot blots, etc.), and are generally used at a lower range of currents (about 10 nA to about 5 uA) and voltages (about 1.2 to about 5 volts). This lower current and voltage reduces transport rate and hybridization efficiency in the higher conductance buffers and electrolytes.
- DNA transport would be carried out in a low conductance buffer (such as cysteine or alanine) where relatively lower current and voltage still produces rapid DNA transport. Under these conditions, DNA is rapidly accumulated at the test site, but does not hybridize efficiently. After transport in these low conductance buffers, the solution is usually changed to a high salt buffer (>100 mM sodium chloride or sodium phosphate), which then promotes very efficient hybridization of the concentrated target DNA to the DNA probes at a microlocation test site.
- a low conductance buffer such as cysteine or alanine
- this embodiment utilizes naturally occurring amino acids, such as histidine
- this invention is fully applicable to other natural or synthetic compounds that have good buffering capacity, low conductivity (or zwitterionic characteristics) and have Attorney Docket: 612,404-477
- a reducing agent to the zwitterionic buffer system also improves DNA transport to the electrodes.
- the oxidation products at the electrodes consisting mainly of O 2 (g), free radicals, and peroxide species, have been found to contribute to fluorophore, DNA, and permeation layer damage.
- oxidation products of buffer components may also deposit on or into the permeation layer and increase the background signal level of the permeation layer above the electrodes.
- the presence of a reducing agent significantly reduces water oxidation, water oxidation products, and buffer oxidation products at the positive electrode.
- the reduction in the generation of O 2 (g) bubbles significantly reduces the amount of turbulence in the area immediately surrounding the electrodes, thereby increasing the rate of accumulation of charged particles (e.g., DNA or RNA) to the microlocations.
- the presence of the reducing agent allows the application of a higher current to the electrodes, resulting in improved transportation and/or hybridization.
- the reducing agent can be, but is not limited to, cysteine, dithitreitol (DTT), ⁇ - mercaptoethanol, ⁇ -thioglycerol, other thiol-containing reducing agents, and combinations thereof.
- DTT dithitreitol
- ⁇ - mercaptoethanol ⁇ -thioglycerol
- other thiol-containing reducing agents and combinations thereof.
- the addition of a reducing agent to the low conductance zwitterionic buffers provides the additional advantages of providing a low fluorescent signal background ( ⁇ 75%), protective effects for DNA, RNA, etc., and faster transport of charged materials.
- the concentration of reducing agent in the buffer is about 25-700 mM, alternatively about Attorney Docket: 612,404-477
- the concentration of reducing agent may depend on the salt composition and can be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art.
- the reducing agent has a thiol group. In this case, the reducing agent has no charge at a pH below the pi of the thiol group. Therefore, there is no significant increase (minimal increase) in the conductivity of the buffer solution.
- the reducing agent is ⁇ -thioglycerol.
- FIG. 4 is a graph of oxidation/reduction potential sweeps.
- the oxidation potential of ⁇ -thioglycerol in a solution of 100 mM histidine is less than that necessary for O 2 (g) generation from the Attorney Docket: 612,404-477
- the oxidative products of the reducing agents are less harmful to the electrode devices.
- the products of water and ⁇ -thioglycerol oxidation are depicted in FIG. 5.
- the generation of hydrogen ions from the oxidation of ⁇ -thioglycerol helps consume oxygen and its radicals, reduces the oxidation and formation of polyhistidine adducts, provides hydrogen ions as charge carriers for electrophoresis and reduces the local pH to facilitate hybridization.
- the oxidation products of ⁇ -thioglycerol are water soluble and do not leave a precipitate. For APEX devices, which have a permeation layer coupled to the electrode, such a precipitate is harmful to the permeation layer.
- FIG. 6 is an electrospray mass spectrum of an electrolyzed histidine buffer solution.
- the peak at m/z 154.1 corresponds to Histidine (His).
- the peaks at m/z 309.3 and 463.7 correspond to His adducts, His-His and His-His-His, respectively.
- FIG. 7 is an electrospray mass spectrum of an electrolyzed histidine buffer solution containing ⁇ -thioglycerol. As apparent in a comparison of FIGS.
- FIG. 9 is a graph of the accumulation of signal, which corresponds to the amount of DNA transported to a particular microlocation after applying a 400 ⁇ A pulse for 1 minute.
- DNA transport appears to be the faster in ⁇ -thioglycerol, as compared to DTT and ⁇ -mercaptoethanol.
- the amount of DNA transported in 250 niM DTT is almost twice as much as compared to 50 mM histidine.
- the amount of DNA transported in 250 mM ⁇ - mercaptoethanol is about four-times as much as compared to 50 mM histidine.
- the amount of DNA transported in 250 mM ⁇ -thioglycerol is over four-times as much as compared to 50 mM histidine.
- ⁇ -thioglycerol does not significantly increase the conductivity of histidine buffers. At working concentrations, ⁇ -thioglycerol contributes ⁇ 35% to the conductivity of Histidine buffer solutions (see Table 3).
- target oligos Pl, P2, P3, FA, and FB were sequentially biased to specific sites on the chip and allowed to hybridize to capture oligos FA, RB, RA, and IC (internal control). As seen for Target FA, hybridization only occurred with capture oligo FA. Additionally, the background signal for all of the other target oligos are lower in the buffer with ⁇ -thioglycerol as compared to the buffer without ⁇ -thioglycerol.
