Direct sequencing of RAPD fragments using 3'-extended oligonucleotide primers and dye terminator cycle-sequencing

Direct sequencing of RAPD fragments using 3'-extended oligonucleotide primers and dye terminator cycle-sequencing.

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers are used widely to develop high resolution genetic maps and for genome fingerprinting. Typically, single oligomers of approximately 10 nucleotides are used to PCR amplify characteristic RAPD marker fragments. We describe an efficient method for the direct end-sequencing of gel-purified RAPD fragments using one primer from a set of four 3'-terminal...

Anchored oligo(dT) primers for automated dye terminator DNA sequencing.

Octamer-primed cycle sequencing using dye-terminator chemistry.

Octamer Sequencing Technology, OST, is a method of DNA sequencing using single octamer oligonucleotides to prime cycle sequencing reactions. This sequencing strategy is faster than a traditional primer-walking strategy, since access to this optimized octamer library eliminates delays associated with designing and synthesizing gene specific primers. In this report, OST has been optimized for flu...

Direct colony sequencing of plasmid DNA by dye terminator methods.

Direct colony sequencing of plasmid DNA is a powerful technique. Radioactive or fluorescent dye primer methods are the reported direct colony sequencing methods (2–4,6). Recently, dye terminator sequencing chemistry (7) has been improved by the introduction of a modified enzyme, AmpliTaq DNA polymerase FS (8), as well as a new d-Rhodamine and BigDye terminator (PE Biosystems, Foster City, CA,...

Rapid sequencing of unpurified PCR products by thermal asymmetric PCR cycle sequencing using unlabeled sequencing primers.

Numerous methods have been developed for direct sequencing of single or double-stranded DNA amplified by PCR, and most require template purification steps prior to sequencing to remove excess unincorporated primers and dNTPs. Purification methods can be cumbersome, laborious and time consuming, or yield low DNA recoveries. Strategies for direct sequencing of doublestranded DNA products without ...
