    摘要: The invention generally relates to methods for detecting fetal nucleic acids and methods for diagnosing fetal abnormalities. In certain embodiments, the invention provides methods for determining whether fetal nucleic acid is present in a maternal sample including obtaining a maternal sample suspected to include fetal nucleic acids, and performing a sequencing reaction on the sample to determine presence of at least a portion of a Y chromosome in the sample, thereby determining that fetal nucleic acid is present in the sample. In other embodiments, the invention provides methods for quantitative or qualitative analysis to detect fetal nucleic acid in a maternal sample, regardless of the ability to detect the Y chromosome, particularly for samples including normal nucleic acids from a female fetus.

    摘要: The invention provides methods and compositions for sequencing DNA or RNA samples that would be impossible to do via standard means. Samples that are part of mixtures or are degraded or modified may be sequenced so that the individual from whom the sample originated can be determined or useful biological information can be associated with the sample. Methods are described that allow high efficiency sequencing of degraded nucleic acid samples such as are typically found with FFPE. Samples from severely degraded sources or that have been treated with preservatives such as formalin may be sequenced. In addition to permitting identification of samples, information about disease or treatment status may also be determined.

    摘要: The invention generally relates to polymerases for efficient and controlled sequencing-by-synthesis reactions. In certain embodiments, the invention provides a polymerase enzyme including at least one mutation that enhances ability of the polymerase as compared to a wild-type polymerase to incorporate a nucleotide into a nascent strand of DNA or cDNA including at least one modified nucleotide.

    摘要: A mechanism for varying the power of a telescopic gun sight wherein the erector lenses are moved longitudinally of the sight. A cam sleeve is used in combination with plastic cam followers. Screws are passed through the cam followers and threaded into the erector lens cells to bias runners formed on the lens cells against the inside surface of the erector lens tube thereby loosening manufacturing tolerance requirements while providing smoother and more accurate lens movement and power change.

    摘要: A line of sight adjustment mechanism for an optical gun sight which includes windage and elevation screws which bear against an internal component of the sight that defines the line of sight of the sight. A spring biases the internal component against the windage and elevation screws. Hardened steel balls are set into the internal component and affixed thereto at approximate positions to provide point contact between the internal component and the windage and elevation screws, and between the internal component and the spring. Adjustment friction is thus reduced with a resultant reduction in tracking error.
