  • Strand-invasion based DNA amplification method
    Patent number: 11180787
    Abstract: Methods for amplification of a target nucleic acid sequence comprising strand invasion are provided in which strand invasion occurs both at upstream and downstream regions of the target nucleic acid sequence. Further provided are kits and compositions suitable for use in such methods. The methods may comprise amplifying a target nucleic acid sequence comprising a region of unknown sequence, or determining the sequence of a target nucleic acid comprising a region of unknown sequence.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 3, 2015
    Date of Patent: November 23, 2021
    Assignee: AIDIAN OY
    Inventors: Kevin Eboigbodin, Mirko Brummer
  • Detection of nucleic acids by strand invasion based amplification
    Patent number: 11008625
    Abstract: A method for detecting a target nucleic acid sequence in a sample in the presence of at least protein capable of binding to single-stranded DNA is provided, comprising contacting said sample with at least one oligonucleotide probe comprising a fluorophore, a quencher and a region complementary to said target nucleic acid sequence. The sequence of the oligonucleotide probe comprises at least 20% RNA nucleotides, modified RNA nucleotides and/or PNA nucleotides.
