Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods, compositions and kits as well as systems for manipulating nucleic acids, including implementing isothermal amplification, such as recombinase-polymerase amplification (RPA), of a nucleic acid template using a pre-seeded solid support. Provided are rapid and efficient methods for generating template nucleic acid molecules comprising specific nucleotide sequence bound to solid support. Such methods can be used, for example, in manipulating nucleic acids in preparation for analysis methods that utilize monoclonal populations of nucleic acids.

Abstract: In some embodiments, the disclosure relates generally to compositions, comprising a single reaction mixture containing a plurality of different populations of discrete supports, and a plurality of different populations of target nucleic acids. The single reaction mixture can contain a first population of beads; a second population of beads; a first population of target nucleic acids, where at least two different target nucleic acids in the first population of target nucleic acids can bind to a bead in the first population of beads; and a second population of target nucleic acids, where at least two different target nucleic acids in the second population of target nucleic acids can bind to a bead in the second population of beads. The single reaction mixture can be employed to monoclonally amplify the first target nucleic acids on the first beads, and monoclonally amplify the second target nucleic acids on the second beads.

Abstract: In some embodiments, the disclosure relates generally to methods, as well as related compositions and kits for recombinase-mediated nucleic acid amplification, such as recombinase-polymerase amplification (RPA), of a nucleic acid template using at least one blocked primer that contains a 5? domain, at least one nucleotide that is cleavable by an RNase H enzyme, a 3? domain, wherein the primer is not extendable by a polymerase, and wherein the 3? domain has a length of 7-100 nucleotides, for example 10-30 nucleotides. These methods and the use of a blocked primer reduce or eliminate non-specific amplification products, such as primer dimers, which are generated in RPA reactions.
