TEMPLATE-DEPENDENT NUCLEIC ACID POLYMERIZATION USING OLIGONUCLEOTIDE TRIPHOSPHATES BUILDING BLOCKS
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of extending a nascent oligonucleotide-3′
- -OH in a template-dependent manner, the method comprising;
contacting the nascent oligonucleotide-3′
-OH with a nucleic acid template, a template-dependent polymerase and 4N oligonucleotide triphosphates each including N monomers, under conditions in which said nascent oligonucleotide-3′
-OH hybridizes with said nucleic acid template and said template-dependent polymerase is active in incorporating said oligonucleotide triphosphates onto a growing 3′
-OH group of the nascent oligonucleotide-3′
-OH, thereby extending the nascent oligonucleotide-3′
-OH in a template-dependent manner.

Abstract
A novel use of a template-dependent polymerase. The novel use is effected by employing the template-dependent polymerase for incorporating at least one oligonucleotide triphosphate onto a nascent oligonucleotide-3′-OH in a template-dependent manner.
