Embodiment 1

[0022] A method for efficiently and rapidly amplifying cDNA 5' and 3' ends, comprising the steps of:

[0023] a. Design a specific locking primer connected to the 5' end of the cDNA, that is, the anchor primer, denoted as LT. There are 3 guanines at the 3' end of the sequence, the first two guanines are riboguanosine, and the last guanine base is locked nucleic acid modified guanine (LNA). The primer can form 3 'Stem-loop structure protruding from the terminal portion. The special modification at the end of the adapter sequence and its own structure can significantly improve the anchoring efficiency of the locked primer;

[0024] b. Design an anchor sequence combined with the poly(A) tail at the 3' end, denoted as MT. The end of the sequence contains 30 thymines and does not form a hairpin structure by itself;

[0025] c. Design a primer that is partially complementary to the MT sequence, denoted as B;

[0026] d. Design two specific primers for the target gene, wherein th...

Abstract

The invention discloses an anchor primer for efficient and rapid amplification of cDNA 5' and 3' ends. The two anchor primers can be specifically bound to a target nucleic acid sequence and trigger reverse transcription elongation reaction, thereby efficiently and rapidly amplifying cDNA 5' and 3' ends, and especially can be applied to rapid amplification of the 5' and 3' ends of cDNA in low abundance transcripts. In addition, the invention also provides a kit and an amplification method for efficient and rapid amplification of cDNA 5' and 3' ends.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for rapidly amplifying cDNA ends, in particular to an anchor primer and an amplification method for efficiently and rapidly amplifying cDNA ends. Background technique [0002] Obtaining full-length genes is a focus of bioengineering and molecular biology research. The classic RACE (rapid-amplification of cDNA ends) technology is a technology invented by Frohman et al. in 1988, which can effectively obtain the full-length sequence of the gene. RACE is based on RT-PCR technology, adding locking primers at the end to obtain cDNA with complementary or identical sequences to the locking primers at the end, and then performing PCR amplification with specific primers to obtain complete cDNA 5' and 3' end sequences. The principle of RACE technology is simple, and it has the advantages of quickness, high efficiency and low cost. [0003] In many biological studies, the abundance of the target gene studied is often very low. I...
