First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for amplifying a target nucleic acid sequence comprising a target nucleic acid:
- a) hybridizing a Riboprimer to a single stranded DNA template comprising the target nucleic acid sequence, wherein said Riboprimer comprises;
i) only ribonucleotides, or ii) only purine ribonucleotides and only pyrimidine nucleotides, wherein at least one of the pyrimidine nucleotides is a pyrimidine 2′
-deoxyribonucleotide having a non-canonical substituent, which substituent is neither an H nor an OH, on the 2′
-position of the deoxyribose sugar moiety;
b) extending the Riboprimer with a DNA polymerase having strand displacement activity;
c) cleaving the annealed Riboprimer with an RNase H enzyme such that another Riboprimer hybridizes to the template and repeats primer extension by strand displacement, whereby multiple copies of the complementary sequence of the target sequence are produced; and
d) attaching the multiple copies of the complementary sequence of the target sequence onto a solid substrate to make a microarray of the amplified products.

Abstract
Methods, compositions and kits for amplifying a target sequence by strand displacement replication using strand-displacing primers. The method uses primers that have only ribonucleotides or purine ribonucleotides and at least one 2′-substituted pyrimidine-2′-deoxyribonucleotide.
