    摘要: A method of characterizing a nucleic acid that includes steps of (a) contacting a primer-template nucleic acid hybrid with a polymerase and a mixture of nucleotides to produce an extended primer hybrid and to form a stabilized ternary complex including the extended primer hybrid, the polymerase and a nucleotide cognate of the next base in the template, wherein the mixture contains nucleotide cognates of four different base types, wherein the nucleotide cognate of the first base type has a reversible terminator, and wherein nucleotide cognates of the second, third and fourth base types are extendable; (b) detecting the stabilized ternary complex to distinguish the next base from other base types in the template; and (c) determining the presence of a base multiplet in the template nucleic acid, the base multiplet including the first base type followed by the next base.

    摘要: Disclosed herein is a method for a positive control reaction using a pre-positive control composition. Unlike conventional positive controls, the pre-positive control composition according to the present disclosure is provided in the pre-positive control composition form, but not in a complete positive control form, until an experiment preparation stage, and can produce a complete-positive control through a positive control reaction, whereby the contamination that could occur in an experiment preparation stage for positive control preparation and positive control reactions can be minimize and an examination can be made to see whether the contamination comes from the positive control or not.

    摘要: The present invention provides methods of producing single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) from a double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) template. The method includes selecting either the (+)-strand or the (−)-strand of a dsDNA template as a target ssDNA, wherein if the target ssDNA is the (+)-strand of the dsDNA template, a biotin label is added onto the reverse primer, and wherein if the target ssDNA is the (−)-strand of the dsDNA template, a biotin label is added onto the forward primer. Next PCR is performed to produce biotinylated dsDNA fragments. Once the PCR is terminated, the biotinylated dsDNA fragments are purified. Next the target ssDNA is separated from the biotinylated dsDNA by immobilizing the biotinylated dsDNA onto a surface and precipitating the target ssDNA.
