Methods and kits for negative selection of desired nucleic acid sequences

InactiveUS20080268508A1Contemplate useHormonesSugar derivativesReverse transcriptaseNucleotide
The present invention pertains to a method to isolate, separate, enrich or amplify a targeted nucleotide polymer such as mRNA through selective reverse transcription of the targeted polymer into cDNA from a sample comprising of chemically identical or similar polynucleotide polymers such as rRNA. The enrichment of the targeted nucleic acid such as mRNA is accomplished by blocking the reverse transcription of undesired rRNA while allowing unrestricted reverse transcription of the targeted polymer. The invention also embodies that the cleavage of the non-targeted nucleic acid such as rRNA bound to an oligonucleotide through enzymatic activity (RNase H). The invention further embodies methods and kits to accomplish the utility of the invention through the following steps 1) 3′ tailing of chemically identical or similar nucleotide polymers in a sample that includes bacterial mRNA 2) a 3′ tail capable of binding to a oligo-dN primer 3) at least one oligonucleotide capable of preventing the extension of oligo-dN bound to at least one non-targeted nucleotide polymers by a DNA polymerase such as a reverse transcriptase without restricting conversion of bacterial mRNA into cDNA 4) where the non-targeted molecule is prevented as a template for cDNA synthesis by enzymatic cleavage (RNase H) of template (rRNA)-oligonucleotide hybrid 5) where the reverse transcriptase is physically blocked by the oligonucleotide bound to the non-targeted nucleic acids such as rRNA 5) purification of the selectively transcribed cDNA. In further embodiments of the present invention, methods and composition to enable the study of bacterial transcriptomics-an analysis of genes expressed by a bacterial infection of a host, an isolated bacterial culture or a bacterial community, such as recovered from soil, intestine, mouth, biofilm, water etc are also included for use in DNA-chip or sequencing analyses.

Biological process for converting organic by-products or wastes into renewable energy and usable products

Apparatus for the treatment of organic waste streams is disclosed, in which the organic waste stream is treated in order to reduce the average particle size prior to entry into a biological reactor. The use of a mechanical device to reduce this average particle size while simultaneously mixing the organic waste stream increases the efficiency of the biological reactor. The mechanical device is preferably one which causes attrition and reduction in the average particle size of the organic waste stream. This results in a lower viscosity feed to the biological reactor, and therefore a far more efficient process, which can therefore handle a feed stream of greater concentration than was previously thought to be possible.
