Title:
METHOD FOR REMOVING CARRYOVER CONTAMINATION IN NUCLEIC ACID AMPLIFICATION REACTIONS BY USING PHOTOBACTERIUM LEIOGNATHI-DERIVED URACIL-DNA GLYCOSYLASE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/132543
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) derived from a photobacterium leiognathi strain, and use thereof. A novel UDG of the present invention is an enzyme isolated from low-temperature bacteria photobacterium leiognathi, has an activity for decomposing a uracil base in a DNA substrate including uracil and is easily denatured at low temperature. Therefore, the UDG of the present invention allows carryover contamination occurring during nucleic acid amplification reactions to be removed, and thus can be effectively used for increasing accuracy (false positive elimination), purity and amplification efficiency of nucleic acid amplification reactions.
