Abstract:
In some embodiments, methods for ligating nucleic acid ends comprise: conducting a nucleic acid ligation reaction in the presence of at least one agent that generates a ligatable terminal 5′ phosphate group by removing an adenylate group from a terminal 5′ phosphate of a nucleic acid. In some embodiments, an aprataxin enzyme can catalyze removal of an adenylate group from a terminal 5′ phosphate of a nucleic acid. In some embodiments, methods for ligating nucleic acid ends comprise: conducting a nucleic acid ligation reaction in the presence of an aprataxin enzyme under conditions suitable for ligating nucleic acid ends.
Abstract:
This disclosure relates to methods of performing activation by polyphosphorolysis (APP) reactions using at least one of the polyphosphorylating agents triphosphate, polyphosphate, imidodiphosphate, thiodiphosphate (or μ-monothiopyrophosphate), and related compounds.

Abstract:
This specification generally relates to non-radioactive methods of detecting nucleic acid polymerase activity and methods of detecting compounds that modulate nucleic acid polymerase activity. The activity may be measured in real-time using a real-time PCR instrument.
