    摘要: An oligonucleotide probe is provided which includes a fluorescent reporter molecule and a quencher molecule capable of quenching the fluorescence of the reporter molecule. The oligonucleotide probe is constructed such that the probe exists in at least one single-stranded conformation when unhybridized where the quencher molecule is near enough to the reporter molecule to quench the fluorescence of the reporter molecule. The oligonucleotide probe also exists in at least one conformation when hybridized to a target polynucleotide where the quencher molecule is not positioned close enough to the reporter molecule to quench the fluorescence of the reporter molecule. By adopting these hybridized and unhybridized conformations, the reporter molecule and quencher molecule on the probe exhibit different fluorescence signal intensities when the probe is hybridized and unhybridized. As a result, it is possible to determine whether the probe is hybridized or unhybridized based on a change in the fluorescence intensity of the reporter molecule, the quencher molecule, or a combination thereof. In addition, because the probe can be designed such that the quencher molecule quenches the reporter molecule when the probe is not hybridized, the probe can be designed such that the reporter molecule exhibits limited fluorescence until the probe is either hybridized or digested.

    摘要: A process is provided for detecting polymorphisms on the basis of nucleotide differences in random segments of the nucleic acid by performing a primer extension reaction on the nucleic acids and comparing the extension reaction products. The random nucleic acid segment can be amplified by first dissociating the extension product from the template and contacting the dissociated extension product with a primer under conditions such that an amplification extension product is synthesized using the dissociated extension product as a template. Differences in the extension product are useful as markers in constructing genetic maps and as markers to distinguish or identify individuals.

    摘要: The method described characterizes each DNA segment to be mapped by cleaving it to produce DNA fragments which are then end labeled with a reporter(s) specific to the end nucleotides of each fragment. The labeled fragments are again cleaved to produce short fragments which are separated according to size. The short fragments are analyzed as to report identify and size which is indicative of the character of each fragment. By derivatizing the cleaved ends of the primary cleaved fragments, the labeling may be delayed until the second cleavage. Prior to the labeling the derivatized fragments, all underivatized fragments are removed, the derivatized fragments being immobilized.

High levels of multiplexing are provided by the use of a zip-coded stem-loop reverse transcription primer, along with a PCR-based pre-amplification reaction that comprises a zip-coded forward primer. Detector probes in downstream decoding PCRs can take advantage of the zip-code introduced by the stem-loop reverse transcription primer. In some embodiments, further amplification is achieved by cycling the reverse transcription reaction. The present teachings also provide compositions and kits useful for performing the reverse transcription and amplification reactions described herein.
