摘要:
The present invention is directed to a process for amplifying and detecting any target nucleic acid sequence contained in a nucleic acid or mixture thereof. The process comprises treating separate complementary strands of the nucleic acid with a molar excess of two oligonucleotide primers, extending the primers to form complementary primer extension products which act as templates for synthesizing the desired nucleic acid sequence, and detecting the sequence so amplified. The steps of the reaction may be carried out stepwise or simultaneously and can be repeated as often as desired.In addition, a specific nucleic acid sequence may be cloned into a vector by using primers to amplify the sequence, which contain restriction sites on their non-complementary ends, and a nucleic acid fragment may be prepared from an existing shorter fragment using the amplification process.

摘要:
Primers for amplification of specific nucleic acid sequences of the second exon of HLA DRbeta genes and probes for identifying polymorphic sequences contained in the amplified DNA can be used in processes for typing homozygous or heterozygous samples from a variety of sources and for detecting allelic variants not distinguishable by serological methods. This HLA DRbeta DNA typing system can be used in a dot-blot format that is simple and rapid to perform, produces detectable signals in minutes, and can be used for tissue typing, determining individual identity, and identifying disease susceptible individuals.
