471 results about "Exonuclease" patented technology

Exonucleases are enzymes that work by cleaving nucleotides one at a time from the end (exo) of a polynucleotide chain. A hydrolyzing reaction that breaks phosphodiester bonds at either the 3' or the 5' end occurs. Its close relative is the endonuclease, which cleaves phosphodiester bonds in the middle (endo) of a polynucleotide chain. Eukaryotes and prokaryotes have three types of exonucleases involved in the normal turnover of mRNA: 5' to 3' exonuclease (Xrn1), which is a dependent decapping protein; 3' to 5' exonuclease, an independent protein; and poly(A)-specific 3' to 5' exonuclease.

Eukaryotic use of non-chimeric mutational vectors

The invention is based on the reaction of Duplex Mutational Vector in a cell-free system containing a cytoplasmic cell extract and a test plasmid. The reaction specifically converts a mutant kanr gene to recover the resistant phenotype in transformed MutS, RecA deficient bacteria. Using this system a type of Duplex Mutational Vector termed a Non-Chimeric Mutational Vector, having no RNA:DNA hybrid-duplex is shown to be an effective substrate for eukaryotic enzymes. The invention concerns the use of Non-Chimeric Mutational Vectors protected from 3' exonuclease attack in eukaryotic cells. Such protection can be conferred by replacement of a tetrathymidine linker by a nuclease resistant oligonucleotide, such as tetra-2'-O-methyl-uridine, to link the two strands of the recombinagenic oligonucleobase.

Asynchronous primed PCR

An asynchronous thermal cycling protocol for nucleic acid amplification uses two primers with thermal melting temperatures different by about 10 to 30° C. After the higher melting primer has annealed and polymerase mediated extension, the uncopied, single-stranded target sequence may be hybridized and detected by a probe. DNA probes may be cleaved by the exonuclease activity of a polymerase. The probe may be a non-cleaving analog such as PNA. When a probe is labelled with a reporter dye and a quencher selected to undergo energy transfer, e.g. FRET, fluorescence from the reporter dye may be effectively quenched when the probe is unbound. Upon hybridization of the probe to complementary target or upon cleavage while bound to target, the reporter dye is no longer quenched, resulting in a detectable amount of fluorescence. The second, lower-melting primer may be annealed and extended to generate a double-stranded nucleic acid. Amplification may be monitored in real time, including each cycle, or at the end point. The asynchronous PCR thermal cycling protocol can generate a preponderance of the PCR amplicon in single-stranded form by repetition at the end of the protocol of annealing and extension of the higher melting primer.
