37 results about "Primer dimer" patented technology

A Primer dimer (PD) is a potential by-product in PCR, a common biotechnological method. As its name implies, a PD consists of primer molecules that have attached (hybridized) to each other because of strings of complementary bases in the primers. As a result, the DNA polymerase amplifies the PD, leading to competition for PCR reagents, thus potentially inhibiting amplification of the DNA sequence targeted for PCR amplification. In quantitative PCR, PDs may interfere with accurate quantification.

Method and kit for eliminating false positive result in nucleic acid amplification reaction

The invention belongs to the field of nucleic acid detection and molecular biology, and particularly relates to a method and a kit for eliminating false positive results in nucleic acid amplification reaction. According to the method, after a nucleic acid amplification reaction (taking recombinase polymerase amplification, namely RPA, for example) is completed, a target amplification product is subjected to selective enzyme digestion by utilizing restriction endonuclease, non-target products (such as primer dimers and non-specific amplification products) are not cut, and meanwhile, the non-target products which are not subjected to enzyme digestion are removed by combining solid-phase separation, so that the target amplification product is obtained. Therefore, the false positive result is eliminated. The invention also discloses a kit containing the restriction enzyme. According to the method, the specificity and the signal-to-noise ratio of a nucleic acid amplification reaction, especially RPA, are remarkably improved, the cost is low, operation is easy, the method is compatible with an existing technical platform, the method is suitable for detection scenes such as clinical molecular diagnosis, environmental monitoring and food safety, and the problem of misjudgment caused by false positive signals is effectively avoided.

Method for constructing a library of tagged sequence vectors by short oligonucleotides and use thereof

The application discloses a method for constructing a tag sequence-containing vector library by short oligonucleotides and application thereof. The method needs two oligonucleotides, i.e. a customized tag primer and a universal primer which can be used for all library constructions. The middle of the tag primer is a tag sequence, and both sides are annealing sequences. The universal primer has sequences complementary to the annealing sequences of the tag primer on both sides, and a modified base which can be recognized as a base damage by a host microorganism in the middle. The tag primer library is annealed with an equal amount of the universal primer to obtain primer dimers. The primer dimers have base-paired DNA double strands on both sides, and are cohesive ends. The middle of the primer dimers is an unpaired omega loop structure, and the double strands of the omega loop contain the tag information carried by the tag primer and the modified base carried by the universal primer respectively. The primer dimers are connected with linearized vectors, and then are transformed into E. coli, so that the region of the modified base of the omega loop is replaced by the tag sequence through the base excision repair mechanism of the endogenous cells.
