Title:
POST-SYNTHESIS LABELING OF NUCLEIC ACIDS AND USES THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003052115
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An assay is provided for nucleic acids that can be post-synthetically labeled, wherein modified nucleoside triphosphates are used that are more efficiently and specifically incorporated during nucleic acid synthesis than labeled nucleoside triphosphates. In a preferred embodiment, nucleoside a-thiotriphosphates are utilized. Maleimide or iodoacetamide conjugating moieties can be attached post-synthetically. The conjugating moieties may include a reporter group. Also disclosed are new methods for detecting single nucleotide polymorphism.
