Patent number: 8063184Abstract: The present invention provides novel cleavage agents and polymerases for the cleavage and modification of nucleic acid. The cleavage agents and polymerases find use, for example, for the detection and characterization of nucleic acid sequences and variations in nucleic acid sequences. In some embodiments, the 5? nuclease activity of a variety of enzymes is used to cleave a target-dependent cleavage structure, thereby indicating the presence of specific nucleic acid sequences or specific variations thereof.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2010Date of Patent: November 22, 2011Assignee: Third Wave Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Hatim Allawi, Brad T. Argue, Christian Tor Bartholomay, LuAnne Chehak, Michelle L. Curtis, Peggy S. Eis, Jeff G. Hall, Hon S. Ip, Lin Ji, Michael Kaiser, Robert W. Kwiatkowski, Jr., Andrew A.
