  • Novel receptors
    Publication number: 20050170397
    Abstract: The invention provides isolated nucleic acid and amino acid sequences of novel G-protein coupled receptors, antibodies to such receptors, methods of detecting such nucleic acids and receptors, and methods of screening for modulators of G-protein coupled receptors.

  • Method for determining the presence of base changes by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis
    Patent number: 6258544
    Abstract: A method is presented which uses a unique opposite strand joining strategy during PCR of an original DNA to generate a product which, when sequenced with a single sequencing primer yields the sequence of both strands of the original DNA. The PCR primers include 1) a modified oligomer corresponding to the 5′ end of a first strand of the DNA to be amplified wherein said modified oligomer includes the reverse complementary sequence to a sequence within said first strand of DNA and a specific PCR priming sequence which will specifically hybridize to a portion of the DNA to be amplified and 2) a second oligomer corresponding to the 5′ end of the second strand of the DNA to be amplified and which contains the priming sequence for the second strand of the DNA and will specifically hybridize to a portion of the DNA to be amplified. During PCR an intermediate product is formed where one end of one strand loops around to hybridize to its complement on the same strand.
