Protected DNA strand displacement for enhanced single nucleotide discrimination in double-stranded DNA
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are a prime source of genetic diversity. Discriminating between different SNPs provides an enormous leap towards the better understanding of the uniqueness of biological systems. Here we report on a new approach for SNP discrimination using toehold-mediated DNA strand displacement. The distinctiveness of the approach is based on the combination of both 3- ...
متن کاملSequencing double-stranded DNA by strand displacement.
Duplex probes with five base single-stranded overhangs can capture dsDNA targets from type IIS restriction nuclease digests. Ligation generates a predesigned nick site, where DNA polymerase can generate sequencing ladders by strand displacement or nick translation in the presence of trace amounts of dideoxynucleotides. This allows dsDNA targets to be captured from mixtures and directly sequence...
متن کاملExcess Single-Stranded DNA Inhibits Meiotic Double-Strand Break Repair
During meiosis, self-inflicted DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are created by the protein Spo11 and repaired by homologous recombination leading to gene conversions and crossovers. Crossover formation is vital for the segregation of homologous chromosomes during the first meiotic division and requires the RecA orthologue, Dmc1. We analyzed repair during meiosis of site-specific DSBs created by ...
متن کاملGenome-wide detection of meiotic DNA double-strand break hotspots using single-stranded DNA.
The controlled fragmentation of chromosomes by DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) initiates meiotic recombination, which is essential for meiotic chromosome segregation in most eukaryotes. This chapter describes a straightforward microarray-based approach to measure the genome-wide distribution of meiotic DSBs by detecting the single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) that transiently accumulates at DSB sites d...
متن کاملStrand displacement and duplex invasion into double-stranded DNA by pyrrolidinyl peptide nucleic acids.
The so-called acpcPNA system bears a peptide backbone consisting of 4'-substituted proline units with (2'R,4'R) configuration in an alternating combination with (2S)-amino-cyclopentane-(1S)-carboxylic acids. acpcPNA forms exceptionally stable hybrids with complementary DNA. We demonstrate herein (i) strand displacements by single-stranded DNA from acpcPNA-DNA hybrids, and by acpcPNA strands fro...
