The present procedure is an optimized DNA extraction protocol that has considerably improved yield of high molecular weight DNA compared to standard methods, without compromising DNA quality. The critical step with the biggest effect on yield the most was step 5.2, which includes a longer centrifugation step during ethanol precipitation than any published protocol reviewed here, except one that was not widely distributed11. No changes in DNA quality associated with this longer centrifugation were detected, ind...

Obtaining high quality DNA for human genetic studies is essential in the disease gene discovery process. Blood, though requiring an invasive procedure and also being more expensive than saliva collection, is favored for creating immortalized cell lines as an infinite source of DNA, or iPSCs for functional studies, and sometimes blood DNA is used when cell lines are not available. However, obtaining blood requires a trained phlebotomist and blood has a shorter half-life than saliva1. DNA from saliva is less expensive and easier to obtain, since it can be collected and sent through the mail without the need for a phlebotomist, thereby increasing potential subject pools well beyond the catchment area of hospitals and laboratories2. Study enrollment may be improved when subjects have the option of giving a saliva sample instead of blood3, 4. Concerns about the quantity and quality of DNA from saliva may have limited its widespread use despite numerous studies recent studies showing the suitability of whole saliva, with an average of 4.3 x 105 cells per milliliter, for DNA testing over the older buccal swabs methods that did not obtain significant amounts of saliva2, 3, 4, 5, 6. While a modest literature exists showing the suitability of whole saliva derived DNA for genotyping applications including microarray-based methods8, 9, 10, no studies have examined next generation sequencing (NGS). The goal for optimizing this whole saliva DNA extraction protocol was to maximize quantity and quality for genetics applications in a cost effective way that is easily implemented in laboratories with common reagents and consumables.
DNA extraction from saliva requires several procedures: 1) collection and storage, 2) cell lysis, 3) RNase treatment, 4) protein precipitation, 5) ethanol precipitation, 6) DNA rehydration. The DNA Stabilization Buffer solution, described previously2, functions adequately without alteration. No attempt to optimize the RNase treatment and DNA rehydration steps was made. For each remaining step, several variables that could affect yield were identified. Each variable was manipulated individually and improvement in yield and quality was assessed statistically. For variables that were shown to improve yield and/or DNA quality, the optimal values were included in the final protocol.

collection and extraction of saliva dna for next generation sequencing

The preferred source of DNA in human genetics research is blood, or cell lines derived from blood, as these sources yield large quantities of high quality DNA. However, DNA extraction from saliva can yield high quality DNA with little to no degradation/fragmentation that is suitable for a variety of DNA assays without the expense of a phlebotomist and can even be acquired through the mail. However, at present, no saliva DNA collection/extraction protocols for next generation sequencing have been presented in the literature. This protocol optimizes parameters of saliva collection/storage and DNA extraction to be of sufficient quality and quantity for DNA assays with the highest standards, including microarray genotyping and next generation sequencing.

To determine optimal parameters for DNA extraction a series of paired DNA extractions was performed. A single saliva sample was split and each portion tested with one of two possible values for a given variable. At least eight replicates of each paired test were performed (e.g., a single saliva sample was aliquoted to test extraction both with and without initial 50 &#176;C incubation). Optimization was based on four standard metrics: total DNA yield, the 260/280 value, the 260/230 value, and visual inspection o...
