  • Publication number: 20200399692
    Abstract: The invention provides modified nucleotide or nucleoside molecule comprising a purine or pyrimidine base and a ribose or deoxyribose sugar moiety having a removable 3?-OH blocking group covalently attached thereto, such that the 3? carbon atom has attached a group of the structure —O—Z wherein Z is any of —C(R?)2-O—R?, —C(R?)2-N(R?)2, —C(R?)2-N(H)R?, —C(R?)2-S—R? and —C(R?)2-F, wherein each R? is or is part of a removable protecting group; each R? is independently a hydrogen atom, an alkyl, substituted alkyl, arylalkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, heteroaryl, heterocyclic, acyl, cyano, alkoxy, aryloxy, heteroaryloxy or amido group, or a detectable label attached through a linking group; or (R?)2 represents an alkylidene group of formula ?C(R??)2 wherein each R?? may be the same or different and is selected from the group comprising hydrogen and halogen atoms and alkyl groups; and wherein said molecule may be reacted to yield an intermediate in which each R? is exchanged for H or, where Z is —C(R?)2-F, the F is ex

  • Patent number: 10710046
    Abstract: The invention relates to methods of generating templates for a nucleic acid sequencing reaction which comprise: providing at least one double-stranded nucleic acid molecule, wherein both strands of the double-stranded nucleic acid molecule are attached to a solid support at the 5? end, cleaving one or both strands of the double-stranded nucleic acid molecule, and subjecting the cleaved strand(s) to denaturing conditions to remove the portion of the cleaved strand(s) not attached to the solid support, thereby generating a partially or substantially single-stranded template for a nucleic acid sequencing reaction.

  • Patent number: 9455880
    Abstract: Method and system for routing EPP requests over a network are provided. The EPP request can include XML namespace information and optionally XML sub-product information. A gateway can receive the request and analyze the namespace and in some instances, sub-product information to determine the service to which the request is directed. Thereupon, the gateway can route the request to the appropriate service by consulting a routing table that can have status and connectivity information for all the available services.
