Problems solved by technology

[0004] U.S. Patent 5,646,019 discloses "a method for preparing nucleic acid templates conducive to priming and amplification", which is to add a heat-resistant single-strand binding protein (SSB, single-stranded nucleic acid binding protein) to the PCR system, SSB The protein only binds to single-stranded DNA, and optimizes PCR amplification by binding and inhibiting the amplification of non-specific fragments containing single strands, but its effect on improving the sensitivity of PCR amplification is not very significant

Abstract

The invention provides a method for improving PCR amplification sensitivity by using an integrated host factor. The method comprises the following steps: adding the integrated host factor IHF into a reaction solution containing deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate, DNA polymerase, an oligonucleotide primer and a nucleic acid fragment which serves as a template, carrying out repeated heat circulation according to three steps of unwinding, annealing and extending of the normal PCR, thereby amplifying a target nucleic acid fragment, wherein the mole ratio of a primer to the integrated host factor IHF is 0.005-1. The method is capable of specifically and efficiently amplifying a target nucleic acid sequence.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to a method for nucleic acid molecule amplification technology based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR), including linear unit, multiplex and nested PCR reactions, and mainly relates to a method using Thermostable, integrated host factor (IHF) that binds to DNA double strands to improve the efficiency of PCR amplification. 【Background technique】 [0002] PCR is a molecular biology technique used to amplify a specific segment of DNA, which can be performed outside the body and does not have to rely on organisms such as E. coli or yeast. Polymerase chain reaction technology is widely used in medical and biological laboratories, for example, it is used to determine whether a certain genetic disease will appear in the sample, the diagnosis of infectious diseases, gene replication, and paternity testing, etc. [0003] In practical applications, especially when using the existing PCR technology to diagnose infectious diseases, there ...
