Abstract: Systems, methods, and compositions for monitoring and analyzing nucleic acid hybridization state using L-DNA probes are described. The methods include adding L-DNA probes that can be fluorescently detected to a system including D-DNA. The L-DNA probes include primer, target, and antisense nucleotide sequences, and fluorescent dye compounds. The L-DNA probes are particularly useful for monitoring and analyzing various parameters during DNA amplification using the polymerase chain reaction.

Abstract: A method of determining the presence and identity of a variation in a nucleotide sequence between a first polynucleotide and a second polynucleotide comprising, first, providing a sample of the first polynucleotide and selecting a region of the first polynucleotide potentially containing the variation. Then, the selected region is subjected to a template producing amplification reaction to produce a plurality of double stranded polynucleotide templates which include the selected region. Next, a family of labeled, linear polynucleotide fragments is produced from both strands of the template simultaneously by a fragment producing reaction using a set of primers. Then, the location and identity of at least some of the bases in the selected region of the first polynucleotide is determined using the labels present in the fragments.
