191 results about "Base pair" patented technology

A base pair (bp) is a unit consisting of two nucleobases bound to each other by hydrogen bonds. They form the building blocks of the DNA double helix and contribute to the folded structure of both DNA and RNA. Dictated by specific hydrogen bonding patterns, Watson–Crick base pairs (guanine–cytosine and adenine–thymine) allow the DNA helix to maintain a regular helical structure that is subtly dependent on its nucleotide sequence. The complementary nature of this based-paired structure provides a redundant copy of the genetic information encoded within each strand of DNA. The regular structure and data redundancy provided by the DNA double helix make DNA well suited to the storage of genetic information, while base-pairing between DNA and incoming nucleotides provides the mechanism through which DNA polymerase replicates DNA and RNA polymerase transcribes DNA into RNA. Many DNA-binding proteins can recognize specific base-pairing patterns that identify particular regulatory regions of genes.

During polymerase-nucleotide conjugate-based polynucleotide synthesis or after the synthesis is completed, nucleobases having a scar from linker cleavage can be converted back into native form by removal of the scars from the nucleobases. Secondary structure formation in the nascent chain, which may inhibit extension reactions, is suppressed by the use of monomers with protected nucleobases that prevent Watson-Crick base pairing and / or other structures.
