154 results about "RNase H" patented technology

Ribonuclease H (abbreviated RNase H or RNH) is a family of non-sequence-specific endonuclease enzymes that catalyze the cleavage of RNA in an RNA/DNA substrate via a hydrolytic mechanism. Members of the RNase H family can be found in nearly all organisms, from bacteria to archaea to eukaryotes.

The present invention pertains to a method to isolate, separate, enrich or amplify a targeted nucleotide polymer such as mRNA through selective reverse transcription of the targeted polymer into cDNA from a sample comprising of chemically identical or similar polynucleotide polymers such as rRNA. The enrichment of the targeted nucleic acid such as mRNA is accomplished by blocking the reverse transcription of undesired rRNA while allowing unrestricted reverse transcription of the targeted polymer. The invention also embodies that the cleavage of the non-targeted nucleic acid such as rRNA bound to an oligonucleotide through enzymatic activity (RNase H). The invention further embodies methods and kits to accomplish the utility of the invention through the following steps 1) 3′ tailing of chemically identical or similar nucleotide polymers in a sample that includes bacterial mRNA 2) a 3′ tail capable of binding to a oligo-dN primer 3) at least one oligonucleotide capable of preventing the extension of oligo-dN bound to at least one non-targeted nucleotide polymers by a DNA polymerase such as a reverse transcriptase without restricting conversion of bacterial mRNA into cDNA 4) where the non-targeted molecule is prevented as a template for cDNA synthesis by enzymatic cleavage (RNase H) of template (rRNA)-oligonucleotide hybrid 5) where the reverse transcriptase is physically blocked by the oligonucleotide bound to the non-targeted nucleic acids such as rRNA 5) purification of the selectively transcribed cDNA. In further embodiments of the present invention, methods and composition to enable the study of bacterial transcriptomics-an analysis of genes expressed by a bacterial infection of a host, an isolated bacterial culture or a bacterial community, such as recovered from soil, intestine, mouth, biofilm, water etc are also included for use in DNA-chip or sequencing analyses.

Oligonucleotides having A-DNA form and B-DNA form conformational geometry

Modified oligonucleotides containing both A-form conformation geometry and B-from conformation geometry nucleotides are disclosed. The B-form geometry allows the oligonucleotide to serve as substrates for RNase H when bound to a target nucleic acid strand. The A-form geometry imparts properties to the oligonucleotide that modulate binding affinity and nuclease resistance. By utilizing C2' endo sugars or O4' endo sugars, the B-form characteristics are imparted to a portion of the oligonucleotide. The A-form characteristics are imparted via use of either 2'-O-modified nucleotides that have 3' endo geometries or use of end caps having particular nuclease stability or by use of both of these in conjunction with each other.

Enhanced first generation adenovirus vaccines expressing codon optimized HIV1-Gag, Pol, Nef and modifications

First generation adenoviral vectors and associated recombinant adenovirus-based HIV vaccines which show enhanced stability and growth properties and greater cellular-mediated immunity are described within this specification. These adenoviral vectors are utilized to generate and produce through cell culture various adenoviral-based HIV-1 vaccines which contain HIV-1 gag, HIV-1 pol and / or HIV-1 nef polynucleotide pharmaceutical products, and biologically relevant modifications thereof. These adenovirus vaccines, when directly introduced into living vertebrate tissue, preferably a mammalian host such as a human or a non-human mammal of commercial or domestic veterinary importance, express the HIV1-Gag, Pol and / or Nef protein or biologically modification thereof, inducing a cellular immune response which specifically recognizes HIV-1. The exemplified polynucleotides of the present invention are synthetic DNA molecules encoding HIV-1 Gag, encoding codon optimized HIV-1 Pol, derivatives of optimized HIV-1 Pol (including constructs wherein protease, reverse transcriptase, RNAse H and integrase activity of HIV-1 Pol is inactivated), HIV-1 Nef and derivatives of optimized HIV-1 Nef, including nef mutants which effect wild type characteristics of Nef, such as myristylation and down regulation of host CD4. The adenoviral vaccines of the present invention, when administered alone or in a combined modality regime, will offer a prophylactic advantage to previously uninfected individuals and / or provide a therapeutic effect by reducing viral load levels within an infected individual, thus prolonging the asymptomatic phase of HIV-1 infection.

Antisense Polynucleotides to Induce Exon Skipping and Methods of Treating Dystrophies

Antisense polynucleotides and their use in pharmaceutical compositions to induce exon skipping in targeted exons of the gamma sarcoglycan gene are provided, along with methods of preventing or treating dystrophic diseases such as Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy. One aspect the disclosure provides an isolated antisense polynucleotide wherein the polynucleotide specifically hybridizes to an exon target region of a gamma sarcoglycan RNA, wherein the exon is selected from the group consisting of exon 4 (SEQ ID NO:1), exon 5 (SEQ ID NO: 2), exon 6 (SEQ ID NO: 3), exon 7 (SEQ ID NO: 4) and a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the antisense polynucleotide cannot form an RNase H substrate, and in further embodiments the antisense polynucleotide comprises a modified polynucleotide backbone.

Binary probe system for sensitive detection of target analytes

The present disclosure encompasses systems, and their methods of use, for detecting a target analyte, the systems comprising: (a) a first oligonucleotide probe comprising a reporter oligonucleotide-binding arm complementary to the nucleotide sequence of a first region of a reporter oligonucleotide and an analyte-binding arm selectively binding to a first region of a target analyte, a second oligonucleotide probe comprising a reporter oligonucleotide-binding arm having a nucleotide sequence complementary to the nucleotide sequence of a second region of a reporter oligonucleotide, and an analyte-binding arm having a nucleotide sequence characterized as selectively binding to a second region of a target analyte; and a reporter oligonucleotide comprising a region complementary to the reporter oligonucleotide-binding arm of the first oligonucleotide probe, a second region complementary to the reporter oligonucleotide-binding arm of the second oligonucleotide probe, a fluorophore and a quencher disposed on the reporter oligonucleotide and a cleavable site disposed between the fluorescent label and the quencher. The cleavable site of the reporter oligonucleotide when in the presence of a target analyte can be cleaved by an enzyme such as a restriction endonuclease, an RNase H, a Flap-endonuclease-1 (FEN-1), and a DNA glycosylase.
