Patents Assigned to ACCURAGEN HOLDINGS LIMITED
  • Patent number: 11859246
    Abstract: In some aspects, the present disclosure provides methods for enriching amplicons, or amplification products, comprising a concatemer of at least two or more copies of a target polynucleotide. In some embodiments, a method comprises sequencing the amplicons comprising at least two or more copies of a target polynucleotide. In some embodiments, the target polynucleotides comprise sequences resulting from chromosome rearrangement, including but not limited to point mutations, single nucleotide polymorphisms, insertions, deletions, and translocations including fusion genes. In some aspects, the present disclosure provides compositions and reaction mixtures useful in the described methods.

  • Patent number: 11643683
    Abstract: In some aspects, the present disclosure provides methods for identifying sequence variants in a nucleic acid sample. In some embodiments, a method comprises identifying sequence differences between sequencing reads and a reference sequence, and calling a sequence difference that occurs in at least two different circular polynucleotides, such as two circular polynucleotides having different junctions, or two different sheared polynucleotides as the sequence variant. In some aspects, the present disclosure provides compositions and systems useful in the described method.
