  • Publication number: 20220403450
    Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to the field of nucleic acid sequencing, and more particularly, to systems and methods for DNA sequencing utilizing a single optical excitation and at least three fluorescent labels. In some embodiments, the disclosed technology uses a first nucleotide coupled to a first fluorescent label which can emit light to be detectable by a first detector, a second nucleotide coupled to a second fluorescent label which can emit light to be detectable by a second detector, a third nucleotide coupled to a third fluorescent label which can emit light to be detectable by both the first and second detectors, and a fourth nucleotide coupled to no fluorescent label. The disclosed technology may identify a nucleotide in the nucleic acid sequence based on whether the emission is received by the first detector, the second detector, both the first and second detectors, or neither the first nor second detector.

  • Publication number: 20220389500
    Abstract: A method for purifying nucleotides is provided, that includes preparing a solution comprising (a) 3?-blocked nucleotides, (b) 3?-OH nucleotides, (c) a polishing polymerase, and (d) a template. The polishing polymerase and the template are used to selectively polymerize the 3?-OH nucleotides and thus reduce a concentration in the solution of the 3?-OH nucleotides relative to the 3?-blocked nucleotides.

  • Publication number: 20220195516
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods, systems, kits and compositions for nucleic acid sequencing applications. In particular, the method utilizes two imaging events with different excitation wavelengths and a single emission channel to collect the fluorescent signal patterns of different types of nucleotide conjugates to determine the identity of the incorporated nucleotide conjugates. The method described herein does not require a chemical treatment of the nucleotide conjugates in the incorporation mixture between the two imaging events.
