Abstract:
In some embodiments, the present inventions relates generally to compositions, methods and kits for use in discriminating sequence variation between different alleles. More specifically, in some embodiments, the present invention provides for compositions, methods and kits for quantitating rare (e.g., mutant) allelic variants, such as SNPs, or nucleotide (NT) insertions or deletions, in samples comprising abundant (e.g., wild type) allelic variants with high specificity and selectivity. In particular, in some embodiments, the invention relates to a highly selective method for mutation detection referred to as competitive allele-specific TaqMan PCR (“cast-PCR”).

Abstract:
Methods, compositions and kits for capturing, detecting and quantifying mature small RNAs are provided herein. Embodiments of the methods comprise ligating 5′ and 3′ ligation adaptors to the 5′ and 3′ ends of the mature small RNAs, respectively, in the presence of 5′ and 3′ semi-degenerate ligation splints to generate a ligation product. Other embodiments comprise reverse transcribing polyadenylated mature small RNA with a universal reverse transcription primer and ligating an adaptor to the 3′ end of the cDNA in the presence of a semi-degenerate ligation splint to generate a cDNA ligation product.
