摘要:
The present invention relates to novel methods for sequencing and mapping genetic markers in polynucleotide sequences using Type-IIs restriction endonucleases. The methods herein described result in the “capturing” and determination of specific oligonucleotide sequences located adjacent to Type-IIs restriction sites. The resulting sequences are useful as effective markers for use in genetic mapping, screening and manipulation.
摘要:
A device and method for efficiently synthesizing diverse molecular products on substrates. A parent vessel 200 contains a suspension of substrates. The suspension is pressurized with argon and transferred to a plurality of reaction vessels 201-209 in one or more reaction vessel banks where monomer addition reactions take place. Optionally, the substrates may be tagged with a tag monomer. A vortexing motor 300 vortexes the contents of reaction vessels 201-209 during monomer addition reactions to enhance synthesis. After the desired monomer and/or tag monomer addition reaction, the suspension is pressurized with argon and transferred back to parent vessel 200 for mixing. Thereafter, the suspension may be pressurized with argon and reallocated among reaction vessels 201-209 for further synthesis.

A general stochastic method for synthesizing random oligomers on particles is disclosed. A further aspect of the invention relates to the use of identification tags on the particles to facilitate identification of the sequence of the monomers in the oligomer.
摘要:
A random peptide library constructed by transforming host cells with a collection of recombinant vectors that encode a fusion protein comprised of a carrier protein fused to a random peptide through a proteolytic cleavage site can be used to identify ligands that bind to a receptor. The screening method results in the formation of a complex comprising the fusion protein bound to a receptor through the random peptide ligand, and the random peptide can easily be identified and analyzed by virtue of the carrier protein and associated proteolytic cleavage site.

摘要:
A method for DNA reassembly after random fragmentation, and its application to mutagenesis of nucleic acid sequences by in vitro or in vivo recombination is described. In particular, a method for the production of nucleic acid fragments or polynucleotides encoding mutant proteins is described. The present invention also relates to a method of repeated cycles of mutagenesis, shuffling and selection which allow for the directed molecular evolution in vitro or in vivo of proteins.

摘要:
Described are peptides and peptide mimetics that bind to and the IL-5 receptor. Such peptides and peptide mimetics are useful in methods for treating disorders that involve improper production of or response to IL-5 and or the production and accumulation of eosinophils, such as asthma, as well as in diagnostic methods employing labeled peptides and peptide mimetics.
