Abstract: The disclosure relates to the field of molecular pathology (for example, cancer diagnosis, prognosis, treatment and/or therapy prediction) through the detection of RNA, mutations, copy number changes and determination of the methylation status of specific sequences of the genome of individual patients in hybridization assays (southern blot, ISH, dot blot) including in situ determination of the methylation status of specific sequences of the genome of individual patients in individual cells. More specifically, this disclosure relates to: a) target-specific probes covalently attached to a labeled tail, b) the synthesis method of said the probe, c) the usage of said the probe such as an in situ hybridization-based method to correlate the methylation status of a promoter region of a gene in a biopsy or cytology specimen of a patient to the morphology and localization in that specimen, and d) kits comprising the target-specific probes. The latter method and products allow detection of (epi) genetic changes in specific cell types of histological or cytological (cancer) specimens or on membranes that will contribute to scientific research and that will help physicians to accurately diagnose diseases and/or start an appropriate treatment.

Abstract: A method is provided for allele-specific amplification, utilizing a blocking oligonucleotide including at least one nucleotide with a base covalently modified at the exocyclic amino group, the blocking oligonucleotide being perfectly complementary to a wild type (WT) sequence when hybridized forming a first complex having a first melting temperature (Tm), the blocking oligonucleotide being partially non-complementary, at one or more nucleotides, to a target mutant (MT) sequence when hybridized forming a second complex having a second melting temperature (Tm), wherein the first Tm is higher than the second Tm and having at least one nucleotide with a base covalently modified at the exocyclic amino group, wherein the blocking oligonucleotide becomes unhybridized from the target MT sequence during amplification but remains hybridized with the WT sequence inhibiting amplification of the WT sequence utilizing a polymerase lacking 5′-3′ nuclease activity.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for detecting the presence or absence of a nucleic acid variant in a target region. These methods include amplifying the target region with a forward primer and a reverse primer in the presence of a selector blocker. The selector blocker includes a sequence complementary to the target region in the absence of the nucleic acid variant. The methods further include detecting amplification of the target region where amplification of the target region indicates the presence of the nucleic acid variant in the target region. The nucleic acid variant can include deletions, mutations or insertions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of pharmacogenomics and in particular to detecting the presence or absence of hypermethylated DNA. The detection of CpG methylation in marker DNA is useful for the diagnosis of cancers and the invention provides improved methods for this purpose. These improved methods allow in particular for a more sensitive detection of methylated marker DNA with high backgrounds of unmethylated marker DNA.

Abstract: Provided herein are compositions, systems, methods, and kits for joining together the ends of one or more polynucleotides using at least one pair of blocking oligonucleotide adaptors. Blocking oligonucleotide adaptors can be used to reduce the formation of adaptor dimers or trimers (or higher-order concatemers) which can improve the yield of desirable polynucleotide-adaptor products in any recombinant nucleic acid workflow. Blocking oligonucleotide adaptors can comprise a double-stranded oligonucleotide adaptor (duplex) having an overhang cohesive portion that anneals with a blocking oligonucleotide which can be a separate single-stranded oligonucleotide. A blocking oligonucleotide, when annealed to an overhang portion, can prevent undesirable hybridization of the overhang portion to another nucleic acid, such as the overhang portion from another blocking oligonucleotide adaptor or a polynucleotide of interest.

Abstract: A method for detecting a low-occurrence mutation in isolated DNA adds a blocking probe to reagents during amplification of the isolated DNA. The blocking probe is an oligonucleotide complementary to wild-type DNA corresponding to the sample. The blocking probe spans a site of a suspected mutation within a region of interest in the isolated DNA. After amplification, fragments of the amplified DNA is sequenced using next generating sequencing and an output is generated to display the sequenced fragments. In some embodiments, the blocking probe is locked nucleic acid (LNA).
