Sequence-dependent biophysical modeling of DNA amplification.
A theoretical framework for prediction of the dynamic evolution of chemical species in DNA amplification reactions, for any specified sequence and operating conditions, is reported. Using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) as an example, we developed a sequence- and temperature-dependent kinetic model for DNA amplification using first-principles biophysical modeling of DNA hybridization and po...
متن کاملModeling the sequence-dependent diffusion coefficients of short DNA molecules.
A boundary element model for the computation of sequence-dependent hydrodynamic properties of short DNA molecules is introduced. The hydrated surface is modeled as a curved tube of uniform radius with ends capped by hemispheres, and the axis of the tube is a general space curve whose length and curvature are determined locally by the sequence using a rigid basepair model of double-helical DNA w...
متن کاملHelicase-dependent isothermal DNA amplification.
Polymerase chain reaction is the most widely used method for in vitro DNA amplification. However, it requires thermocycling to separate two DNA strands. In vivo, DNA is replicated by DNA polymerases with various accessory proteins, including a DNA helicase that acts to separate duplex DNA. We have devised a new in vitro isothermal DNA amplification method by mimicking this in vivo mechanism. He...
متن کاملNickase-dependent isothermal DNA amplification
We developed a nicking endonuclease dependent DNA amplification (NDA), using Nt.BstNBI to catalyze single-stranded nick on double-stranded DNA, and Bst DNA polymerase to make extension while sealing the nick and displacing the downstream strand. The displaced single-stranded DNA thereby serves as template for primers hybridization and extension, resulting in exponential synthesis of target DNA ...
متن کاملDynamics and control of DNA sequence amplification.
DNA amplification is the process of replication of a specified DNA sequence in vitro through time-dependent manipulation of its external environment. A theoretical framework for determination of the optimal dynamic operating conditions of DNA amplification reactions, for any specified amplification objective, is presented based on first-principles biophysical modeling and control theory. Amplif...
