    摘要: Disclosed are compositions and a method for amplification of nucleic acid sequences of interest. The disclosed method generally involves replication of a target sequence such that, during replication, the replicated strands are displaced from the target sequence by strand displacement replication of another replicated strand. In one form of the disclosed method, the target sample is not subjected to denaturing conditions. It was discovered that the target nucleic acids, genomic DNA, for example, need not be denatured for efficient multiple displacement amplification. The primers used can be hexamer primers. The primers can also each contain at least one modified nucleotide such that the primers are nuclease resistant. The primers can also each contain at least one modified nucleotide such that the melting temperature of the primer is altered relative to a primer of the same sequence without the modified nucleotide(s). The DNA polymerase can be φ29 DNA polymerase.

    摘要: Disclosed are compositions and methods useful for reducing the formation of artifacts during nucleic acid amplification reactions. The method uses special oligonucleotides, referred to herein as template-deficient oligonucleotides, that cannot serve as a template for nucleic acid synthesis over part of their length. This prevents the oligonucleotides from serving as effective templates in the formation of artifacts. The disclosed method involves using a template-deficient oligonucleotide as at least one of the oligonucleotides (preferably a primer) in a nucleic acid amplification reaction, where the template-deficient oligonucleotide comprises one or more template-deficient nucleotides, preferably at or near the 5′ end of the template-deficient oligonucleotide. The disclosed method is useful for reducing artifacts in any nucleic acid amplification reaction involving oligonucleotides. In a preferred form of the method the nucleic acid amplification reaction does not involve thermal cycling. The disclosed method is effective at reducing non-cycle oligonucleotide-based artifacts. Also disclosed are kits useful for reducing artifacts in nucleic acid amplification reactions. The disclosed kits include a template-deficient oligonucleotide, wherein the template-deficient oligonucleotide comprises one or more template-deficient nucleotides, and a nucleic acid polymerase.

    摘要: Disclosed are techniques for detection of nucleic acids, amplification of nucleic acids, or both, involving ligation by T4 RNA ligase of DNA strands hybridized to an RNA strand. These techniques are particularly useful for the detection of RNA sequences and for amplification of nucleic acids from, or dependent on, RNA sequences. It has been discovered that T4 RNA ligase can efficiently ligate DNA ends of nucleic acid strands hybridized to an RNA strand. In particular, this ligation is more efficient than the same ligation carried out with T4 DNA ligase. Thus, techniques involving ligation of DNA ends of nucleic acid strands hybridized to RNA can be performed more efficiently by using T4 RNA ligase. Many known ligation-based detection and amplification techniques are improved through the use of T4 RNA ligase acting on DNA strands or ends. Such techniques include ligase chain reaction (LCR), ligation combined with reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT PCR), ligation-mediated polymerase chain reaction (LMPCR), polymerase chain reaction/ligation detection reaction (PCR/LDR), ligation-dependent polymerase chain reaction (LD-PCR), oligonucleotide ligation assay (OLA), ligation-during-amplification (LDA), ligation of padlock probes, open circle probes, and other circularizable probes, and iterative gap ligation (IGL).
