  • Patent number: 8304527
    Abstract: One example embodiment includes a kit to execute a method of simultaneously screening for genetic mutations in different genes in a multitude of samples. The kit includes an antisense deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) probe, where the antisense DNA probe will be mixed with a strand of a ribonucleic acid (RNA) to be tested to form a heteroduplex molecule within a sample. The kit also includes a ribonuclease enzyme, an RNA-primed DNA polymerase, a single strand-specific nuclease, DNA-dependent DNA polymerase, a blocking adapter and a tagged reporter adapter. Through ribonuclease digestion, differential sequence fill-in (DSF) and full-length sequence extension, tagged mutant-dual adapter hybrids are formed for detection, quantification or amplification. The sequence ubiquity of said mutant-dual adapter hybrids enables the use of universalized primers for sequence amplification regardless of the numbers or the origins of the mutations involved.

  • Patent number: 7947446
    Abstract: This disclosure teaches high throughput mutation screening methods allowing simultaneous analysis of multiple genetic regions of interest and sensitive detection of very low frequency mutation(s) by the use of a universalized approach. Methods comprise treating RNA:DNA heteroduplexes of interest with a ribonuclease, sequence extension by an RNA-primed DNA polymerase, ligation with a blocking adapter, and differential sequence fill-in followed by single-strand-specific nuclease digestion to permit full-length sequence extension and subsequent ligation with a tagged reporter adapter solely in mutants filled in with a complementary deoxyribonucleotide triphosphate.

  • Patent number: 5024934
    Abstract: The present invention related to a sensitive method of detecting t(14;18) translocations arising from variable breakpoints in the J-region of the immunoglobulin heavy chain locus on chromosome 14. These breakpoints are typical abnormalities of human follicular lymphomas. In particular, the invention utilizes a sequence amplification by polymerase chain reaction in which primers are synthesized which are so designed that one primer will always flank the breakpoint in the J-region regardless of variation in the breakpoint. Consequently, the invention is a highly sensitive tool to detect minimal residual cells carrying the t(14;18) and has potential to identify patients with subclinical disease.

  • Patent number: 4999290
    Abstract: The present invention involves a method for detecting the unique aberrant gene transcripts of a targeted cellular genomic abnormality in a tissue sample. This method comprises a series of steps. Initially, total cellular RNA or m-RNA is preferred from the tissue sample to be analyzed for the presence of a genomic abnormality. The total cellular RNA or m-RNA is then mixed with at least one synthetic DNA oligonucleotide complementary to the unique RNA sequence of the targeted cellular genomic abnormality being detected. The mixing is under conditions facilitating formation of double stranded DNA-RNA heteroduplexes when a strand of synthetic DNA oligonucleotide is complementary to an RNA strand obtained from the tissue sample. The conditions are those such as time, salt concentration, temperature and pH 10. The synthetic DNA oligonucleotide is preferably about several hundred nucleotides in length, more preferably about 60 to about 150 nucleotides in length.
