Title:
ONE-STEP REVERSE TRANSCRIPTION TEMPLATE-SWITCHING PCR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/222057
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention provides technology for carrying out one-step reverse transcription template-switching PCR more quickly, more easily, and with high specificity. The present invention provides a nucleic acid amplification method for amplifying at least a partial region of RNA using a modified oligonucleotide primer, said nucleic acid amplification method being characterized by the following: a nucleic acid amplification reaction comprises a reverse transcription step a) in which RNA is used as a template, a template switching step b) in which a template-switching oligonucleotide is added to cDNA synthesized in step a), and a DNA amplification step c) in which DNA amplification is carried out by PCR in which the template-switch cDNA synthesized in step b) is used as a template; the steps a) to c) are performed in a single stage in the same reaction system; as a result of being modified, some or all of the primer function of the modified oligonucleotide primer is blocked in the reverse transcription step a); and blocking of the primer function is cancelled in the DNA amplification step c).
