摘要:
A method for performing real time, homogeneous assay of a target nucleic acid comprising annealing a labeled, ribo-oligonucleotide probe to the target DNA sequence and degrading a portion of the probe with RNase H to release labeled fragments. Sequential measurements of the released fragments permits kinetic characterization of the presence of the target sequence. Preferably, the assay is integrated into a polymerase chain reaction so that target amplification can be detected in real time.

A military special operations forces communications assisting, ruggedized, manually operated coaxial antenna A/B switch especially suited for mounting directly on the input/output port connector of a wide band transceiver radio apparatus or for alternate use as a tether-connected switch. The switch includes multi-switch stacking capability, weather and rough usage adaptability, detented operation, accidental position change protection, gloved hand operation and desirable electrical characteristics. Use of the switch in single or multi switch arrangements under darkened and time-limited battlefield conditions to change between differing antennas used with a military mission transceiver radio transceiver is possible.
摘要:
A method for making synthetic oligonucleotides which bind to target sequences in a duplex DNA forming colinear triplexes by binding to the major groove. The method includes scanning genomic duplex DNA and identifying nucleotide target sequences of greater than about 20 nucleotides having either about at least 65% purine bases or about at least 65% pyrimidine bases; and synthesizing synthetic oligonucleotides complementary to identified target sequences. The synthetic oligonucleotides have a G when the complementary location in the DNA duplex has a GC base pair and have a T when the complementary location in the DNA duplex has an AT base pair. The synthetic oligonucleotides are oriented 5' to 4' and bind parallel or 3' to 5' and bind anti-parallel to the about at least 65% purine strand.
