69 results about "Primer binding site" patented technology

A primer binding site is a region of a nucleotide sequence where an RNA or DNA single-stranded primer binds to start replication. The primer binding site is on one of the two complementary strands of a double-stranded nucleotide polymer, in the strand which is to be copied, or is within a single-stranded nucleotide polymer sequence.

Multiplex ligatable probe amplification

Described is an improved multiplex ligation-dependent amplification method for detecting the presence and quantification of at least one specific single stranded target nucleic acid sequence in a sample using a plurality of probe sets of at least two probes, each of which includes a target specific region and a non-complementary region comprising a primer binding site. The probes belonging to the same set are ligated together when hybridised to the target nucleic acid sequence and amplified by a suitable primer set. By using a femtomolar amount of the probes a large number of different probe sets can be used to simultaneously detect and quantify a corresponding large number of target sequences with high specificity.

The invention provides a series of reagent compositions and methods for making and amplifying novel cDNA based probe sets from RNA samples to improve analysis with gene expression arrays. The methods globally produce probe sets with common universal linkers at one or both ends, called WRAP-Probes, wherein the linkers do not bind to the target sequences and they can efficiently bind added reporters to the probes. The universal linkers are also designed as primer binding sites for copying and amplifying the probes, either linearly with one linker, or exponentially with double linkers. The capacity to globally and exponentially amplify the probe set by PCR is a primary advantage. Adding reporters by terminal linkers also improves quantification since each probe gets equivalent signaling. The invention allows expression analysis of small research, clinical and forensic samples to enable improved diagnostics, drug discovery, therapeutic monitoring, and medical, agricultural and general research.

Template specific inhibition of PCR

Template specific inhibition during PCR (TSI-PCR) allows specific inhibition of particular templates without disrupting the amplification of other templates that share amplification primer binding sites. TSI-PCR is achieved by ligation of stop oligos comprising a 3′ modification that prevents extension by DNA polymerases. Stop oligos hybridize to a region of the targeted amplicon downstream of the amplification primer. When the stop oligos are perfectly complementary to the target template, they are ligated onto the extending strand during the extension phase of the amplification cycle. This effectively truncates the extending strand at the site where the stop oligo binds and blocks further extension. The truncated products are not full-length and cannot be extended, and therefore do not serve as additional templates during sunsequent rounds of amplification. This results in substantial inhibition over multiple amplification cycles, but only for templates that match the stop oligos.

The described method provides, methods, and kits to produce, identify, catalog and classify a comprehensive collection of nucleic acid targets produced from a nucleic acid sample. The method, referred to as Cataloging and Classification of Sequence Tags, involves generating a set of target nucleic acid fragments; coupling the target nucleic acid fragments to a nucleic acid bridge comprising, for example, two or more primer binding sites and two recognition sites for cleavage at a site offset from the recognition site to the fragment's end; and cleaving the fragments to generate chimeric nucleic acids of known length. The nucleic acid bridge is thus disposed between the two nucleic acid fragments in the chimeric nucleic acid. The resulting duplex nucleic acids comprise a set of sequence tags (i.e., by amplification using universal primers), comprising an addressable portion, a target nucleic portion and a portion of the nucleic acid bridge. Single-stranded or partial duplex sequence tags may be captured by coupling to a complementary capture probe. Capture probe-sequence tag hybrids, may be detected employing a labeled detector probe. The method allows a complex sample of nucleic acids to be cataloged in a reproducible and sequence-specific manner. The method further provides methods for analysis of the above sample to classify the sequence tags; determine the presence and relative amounts of sequences of interest; derive expressed genes signatures and differential gene expression signatures; and identify putative expressed sequence tags (EST).
