Abstract:
Disclosed is a probe for use in biological assays. The probe includes a fluorescent dye bound to a quencher compound through an oligonucleotide linker. Also disclosed are methods of using the probe, such as for a polymerase chain reaction (PCR), such as in a quantitative PCR reaction (qPCR), as well as kits including the probe.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to dibenzoxanthene compounds that are efficient quenchers of fluorescence, for example in the far red and near infrared spectrum. Applications using the dibenzoxanthene quenching compounds and methods of making same are also described.
Abstract:
Methods for preparation of 2′,3′-dideoxynucleotides support structures, such as 2′,3′-dideoxyguanosine, 2′,3′-dideoxyadenosine, and 3′-deoxythymidine support structures are disclosed. Various methods of using such structures are also provided, such as their use for automated DNA synthesis and pyrophosphorolysis activated polymerization.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to methods of identifying target nucleic acids by using coded molecules and its analysis by translocation through a nanopore. Generally, coded molecules are subject to a target polynucleotide dependent modification. The modified coded molecule is detected by isolating the modified coded molecules from the unmodified coded molecules prior to analysis through the nanopore or by detecting a change in the signal pattern of the coded molecule when analyzed through the nanopore.
