Abstract: Compositions, methods and systems are provided for isolating nucleic acids. A polymerase-nucleic acid complex can be formed by mixing a polymerase enzyme comprising strand displacement activity and a mixture of double stranded nucleic acids. Nucleic acid synthesis can then be initiated by the polymerase enzyme to produce a nascent strand complementary to the first strand, thereby displacing a portion of the second strand. After halting or reducing the rate of nucleic acid synthesis, a hybridizing a hook oligonucleotide can be used hybridize to the nucleic acid through a capture region on the hook oligonucleotide that is complementary to the displaced portion of the second strand. The nucleic acid can then be isolated from the mixture of nucleic acids using the hook oligonucleotide.
