摘要:
A data processing part comprises a time-series data production part for producing time-series data as to each capillary column from a scan waveform obtained by an optical measuring part, further comprises a correction data storage part for storing correction data indicating the relation between the number of data points of saturated parts and light intensity data obtained on the assumption that a peak is unsaturated as to a saturated scan waveform peak and a saturated data correction part obtaining light intensity data as to the saturated peak included in the scan waveform on the basis of the correction data stored in the correction data storage part, and employs the light intensity data obtained by the saturated data correction part as the time-series data.
摘要:
A method for enhancing activity of enzyme at an elevated temperature which comprises adding a substance exhibiting chaperone function such as a saccharide to a reaction mixture containing the enzyme. The method can improve activity of enzymes more easily and more effectively and hence afford increased enzyme activity at an elevated temperature.
摘要:
Disclosed are 3′-deoxyribonucleotide derivatives represented by the following general formula [I]: Q—V—(CH2)n—NH—R [I] wherein Q represents a 3′-deoxyribonucleotide residue, n represents an integer not less than 4, V represents —C≡C— or —CH═CH—, and R represents a fluorescent group. The above 3′-deoxyribonucleotide derivatives are derivatives with improved rates for incorporation using RNA polymerases, which are useful as terminators in the DNA sequence determination methods utilizing RNA polymerases.
摘要:
In order to make possible to preserve promptly and efficiently a DNA and to distribute the same without taking much labor and much time, a DNA solution is allowed to adhere to a sheet-like support having a prescribed thickness, and the DNA solution which has been allowed to adhere to the support is dried to fix the DNA onto the support.
摘要:
A method for preparing a cDNA from a mRNA using a reverse transcriptase wherein reverse transcription is performed at a temperature at which the mRNA does not take a secondary structure, for example, at a temperature of 45° C. or more. The method is performed, for example, using a heat-labile reverse transcriptase in the presence of a substance exhibiting chaperone function having chaperone function such as saccharides. The method is performed, for example, in the presence of metal ions necessary for activation of the reverse transcriptase and a chelating agent for the metal ions such as a deoxynucleotide triphosphate. The method is capable of reverse transcription over the full length of mRNA template even if the mRNA is a long chain mRNA and, as a result, producing a full length cDNA.

Disclosed is a method for collecting DNA by lysing microbial cells, adsorbing released DNA on a carrier and collecting the DNA adsorbed on the carrier, which method comprises the following steps of (1) lysing the microbial cells in the presence of the carrier so that the DNA obtained by lysing cells is adsorbed onto the carrier, separating solutions used for lysing cells and adsorbing DNA from the carrier, and eluting the DNA adsorbed on the carrier with a solution for eluting DNA and collecting eluted DNA, or (2) feeding microbial cells into a column comprising the carrier provided on a membrane filter capable of retaining a solution and permeating the solution when aspirated, lysing the microbial cells in the column so that the DNA obtained by lysing cells is adsorbed onto the carrier, separating solutions used for lysing cells and adsorbing DNA in the previous step from the column by aspiration, and feeding a solution for eluting DNA into the column and aspirating to collect the DNA adsorbed on the carrier. The methods of the present invention enable collection of DNA by the chaotropic ion method employing an apparatus with simpler structure and fewer operations.
摘要:
The present invention is to provide a pretreatment method that allows RNA to be detected promptly and simply. RNA degradation activity due to lactoferrin present in the human rhinal mucosa is inhibited, for example, by adding iron ion and carbonate ion to a biological sample that contains the human rhinal mucosa. With the pretreated biological sample, an RNA virus gene can be amplified by a reverse transcriptase. Iron ion and carbonate ion can also inhibit reverse transcriptase inhibition due to lysozyme C contained in the human rhinal mucosa. Further, it is preferable to remove the envelope of the RNA virus by adding SDS to the biological sample that contains the human rhinal mucosa.

摘要:
The invention provides compositions comprising a TERT-RMRP or TERT-RNA complex and methods of treating subjects with genetic diseases in which gene silencing is either increased by administering the compositions of the invention or decreased by administering an inhibitor of the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) activity of these compositions. Moreover, the invention provides methods of screening for agonists and antagonists of RdRP activity and TERT-RMRP complex formation. Finally, the invention provides a method of identifying a RNA molecule that forms a complex with a TERT polypeptide and has RdRP activity.
摘要:
Aptamers are nucleic acids and similar molecules, such as peptide-nucleic acids, that specifically bind to a ligand such as a protein or peptide. The present invention provides aptamers comprising at least one base capable of base pairing and different from the standard Watson-Crick bases. The present invention also relates to a method for preparation of such aptamers and to methods for sequencing nucleic acids that comprise at least one base capable of base pairing and different from the standard Watson-Crick bases.
