  • Patent number: 10240189
    Abstract: Solid support assays using non-standard bases are described. A capture oligonucleotide comprising a molecular recognition sequence is attached to a solid support and hybridized with a target. In some instances, the molecular recognition sequence includes one or more non-standard bases and hybridizes to a complementary tagging sequence of the target oligonucleotide. In other instances, incorporation of a non-standard base (e.g., via PCR or ligation) is used in the assay.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 20, 2015
    Date of Patent: March 26, 2019
    Assignee: LUMINEX CORPORATION
