  • Patent number: 7968702
    Abstract: Labeled reactant compositions, and particularly labeled nucleic acid reaction compositions, that include structural components that maintain potentially damaging labeling components sufficiently distal from the reactant portion of the molecule such that damaging effects of the label group on other reaction components, such as enzymes, are reduced, minimized and/or eliminated.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 12, 2009
    Date of Patent: June 28, 2011
    Assignee: Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc.
    Inventors: Jeffrey Wegener, Jonas Korlach
  • Publication number: 20110059450
    Abstract: Labeled nucleotide analogs used in place of naturally occurring nucleoside triphosphates or other analogs in template directed nucleic acid synthesis reactions and other nucleic acid reactions, and various analyses based thereon, including DNA sequencing, single base identification, hybridization assays and others.
    Type: Application

  • Publication number: 20100323912
    Abstract: The present invention is generally directed to compositions, methods, and systems for performing single-molecule, real-time analysis of a variety of different biological reactions, and for determining various characteristics of the different biological reactions. The ability to analyze such reactions provides an opportunity to study those reactions as well as to potentially identify factors and/or approaches for impacting such reactions, e.g., to stimulate, enhance, or inhibit such reactions.

  • Publication number: 20070238679
    Abstract: Methods of producing substrates having selected active chemical regions by employing elements of the substrates in assisting the localization of active chemical groups in desired regions of the substrate. The methods may include optical, chemical and/or mechanical processes for the deposition, removal, activation and/or deactivation of chemical groups in selected regions of the substrate to provide selective active regions of the substrate.
