Abstract:
The present invention describes terminal phosphate blocked nucleoside polyphosphates that are stable at high temperature and their use in nucleic acid amplification and analysis. Current invention further describes charge modified terminal phosphate blocked nucleoside polyphosphates for improved incorporation and direct loading of nucleic acid sequencing reactions onto separating media.
Abstract:
The present invention provides novel compounds of the general formula (I), their derivatives, their analogs, their tautomeric forms, their stereoisomers, their polymorphs, their hydrates, their solvates, their pharmaceutically acceptable salts and pharmaceutically acceptable compositions containing them. The present invention more particularly provides novel oxazolidinone derivatives of the general formula (I)
Abstract:
A method of characterizing a nucleic acid sample is provided that includes the steps of: (a) conducting a DNA polymerase reaction that includes the reaction of a template, a non-hydrolyzable primer, at least one terminal phosphate-labeled nucleotide, DNA polymerase, and an enzyme having 3′→5′ exonuclease activity which reaction results in the production of labeled polyphosphate; (b) permitting the labeled polyphosphate to react with a phosphatase to produce a detectable species characteristic of the sample; (c) detecting the detectable species; and (d) characterizing the nucleic acid sample based on the detection.
Abstract:
Exploitation of suitably functionalized heterocyclic molecules, in the design and synthesis of Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) cassettes and their corresponding dideoxynucleotide terminators culminated into efficient reagents for DNA sequencing. Additionally, these FRET cassettes/terminators, of the present invention, derived from different classes of heterocyclic systems have high potential to be used for general labelling of biological molecules to generate highly sensitized signals. Their preparation, energy transfer efficiency, and use as labels, specifically, in DNA sequencing reactions is disclosed.
Abstract:
Nucleoside analogues have structure (2) wherein Q is H or a sugar moiety or sugar analogue or a modified sugar or a nucleic backbone or backbone analogue, W is an alkylene or alkenylene chain of 0-5 carbon atoms, any of which may carry a substituent R8, X is O or N or NR12 or CR10, X′ is O or S or N, provided that when X′ is O or S, then X is C, Y is CH or N, R6 is NH2 or SMe or SO2Me or NHNH2, each of R7 and R8 is independently H or F or alkyl or alkenyl or aryl or acyl or a reporter moiety, R12 is independently H or alkyl or alkenyl or aryl or acyl or a reporter moiety, and R10 is H or ═O or F or alkyl or aryl or a reporter moiety.
Abstract:
Nucleotide or base analogues having structure (3) or (4) wherein X═O or NH or S and each R6 is independently H or alkyl or alkenyl or alkoxy or aryl or a reporter moiety.
Abstract:
This disclosure provides systems and methods for sequencing nucleic acids using nucleotide analogues and translocation of tags from incorporated nucleotide analogues through a nanopore. In aspects, this disclosure is related to composition, method, and system for sequencing a nucleic acid using tag molecules and detection of translocation through a nanopore of tags released from incorporation of the molecule.
Abstract:
This invention relates to the use of nucleoside, nucleotide and other compounds which are inhibitors or terminators of viral RNA dependent RNA polymerases or inhibitors of exonucleases as antiviral agents. These antiviral agents can be used alone or in combination with other polymerase or exonuclease inhibitors, helicase inhibitors, HCV NS5A inhibitors, HIV integrase inhibitors and HCV NS3-4A and other protease inhibitors to treat viral infections such as SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of the COVID-19 infection.
