Fluorescence energy transfer detection as a homogeneous DNA diagnostic method.
A homogeneous DNA diagnostic assay based on template-directed primer extension detected by fluorescence resonance energy transfer, named template-directed dye-terminator incorporation (TDI) assay, has been developed for mutation detection and high throughput genome analysis. Here, we report the successful application of the TDI assay to detect mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane cond...
متن کاملLigase-mediated construction of branched DNA strands: a novel DNA joining activity catalyzed by T4 DNA ligase.
Branched nucleic acid strands exist as intermediates in certain biological reactions, and bifurcating DNA also presents interesting opportunities in biotechnological applications. We describe here how T4 DNA ligase can be used for efficient construction of DNA molecules having one 5' end but two distinct 3' ends that extend from the 2' and 3' carbons, respectively, of an internal nucleotide. Th...
متن کاملHIV Rapid Diagnostic Test Inventories in Zambézia Province, Mozambique: A Tale of 2 Test Kits
Background The first pillar of the UNAIDS 90-90-90 goal seeks to accurately identify persons living with HIV (PLHIV), a process that is predicated on facilities having the necessary HIV tests available to perform the task. In many rural settings, the identification of PLHIV is accomplished through a two-step process involving the sequential use of 2 separate rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs)....
متن کاملDNA Ligase-Mediated Translation of DNA Into Densely Functionalized Nucleic Acid Polymers
We developed a method to translate DNA sequences into densely functionalized nucleic acids by using T4 DNA ligase to mediate the DNA-templated polymerization of 5'-phosphorylated trinucleotides containing a wide variety of appended functional groups. This polymerization proceeds sequence specifically along a DNA template and can generate polymers of at least 50 building blocks (150 nucleotides)...
متن کاملNitric oxide inhibits DNA ligase activity: potential mechanisms for NO-mediated DNA damage.
Nitric oxide-induced modifications of DNA occur either by directly altering DNA chemically through reactive nitrogen oxide species (RNOS) or indirectly by inhibiting various repair processes. DNA ligases are enzymes which rejoin single-strand breaks and are critical for DNA integrity during processes such as gene transcription and repair. The eukaryotic and T4 DNA ligases are active in the pres...
