Embodiment 1
[0083] Target Capture of Creatine Phosphokinase 6 (CPK6) and Restriction Enzyme Digested PCR Amplicons
[0084] Experiments were designed to test ligation efficiency in the methods and assays of the invention. Experiments were designed using 3'-labeled CPK6 oligonucleotides (Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT), Coralville IA) and PCR fragments amplified from E. coli genomic DNA (ATCC No. 700926D-5), yielding from about 1100 to about 1500 bases Base pair amplicons (SEQ ID NO: 2, 3 and 4). 50- and 60-mer oligonucleotide probes containing 16 base pair hairpins were designed. The hairpin sequence used is 5'-CCGGAGGATACTCCG G-3' (SEQ ID NO: 1), such as image 3 shown. A control probe was synthesized which did not contain a hairpin structure. Quadrants of probes were designed representing all 4 bases of each strand, such that a total of 8 probes were designed for target nucleotides within the query sequence (e.g., 4 per strand of the DNA target ). With the exception of the termi...

[0092] Target capture of creatine phosphokinase 6 (CPK6) and PCR amplicons
[0093] Experiments were designed to test cap endonucleases and ligation efficiency in the methods and assays of the invention. Experiments were designed as described in Example 1 using 3'-labeled CPK6 oligonucleotides (IDT) and PCR fragments amplified from E. coli genomic DNA. 50- and 60-mer oligonucleotide probes were designed containing a 16 base pair hairpin and complementary bases at the terminal 3' end. The hairpin sequence used was . A control probe was synthesized which did not contain a hairpin structure. Four sets of probes were designed, such as Figure 1A As shown, which represent all 4 bases of each strand, such that a total of 8 probes were designed for target nucleotides within the query sequence (eg, 4 / each strand of the DNA target). Probes were synthesized in situ on the array at Roche NimbleGen (Madison, WI) at a density of 2.1 million probes / array (HD2).

[0098] Creatine Phosphokinase 6 (CPK6) and Target Capture of Randomly Fragmented Genomic DNA
[0099] Experiments were designed using human and E. coli genomic DNA (gDNA). Oligonucleotide probes were designed as described in Example 1 to synthesize probes in situ on a Roche NimbleGen (Madison, WI) at a density of 2.1 million probes / array (HD2). Fragmentation of genomic DNA (gDNA) by sonication or random amplification of genomic DNA (gDNA) using Klenow fragments using random primers of different lengths (9mer, 10mer, 12mer, and 15mer) , to obtain amplified target sequences of different lengths. Fragments were treated with Antarctic phosphatase, labeled at their 3' ends with Cy3-ddCTP using terminal transferase (TdT), and unlabeled fragments were precipitated using methods known to those skilled in the art. Microarray slides were sealed with a HX3 mixer (NimbleGen Roche), and denatured, labeled target sequences were applied to the microarray (5-30 μg sample / subarray). Probes ...
