  • Primer walking cycle sequencing using presynthesized primers containing nucleotide analogs
    Patent number: 6043059
    Abstract: A method for primer walking cycle sequencing of nucleic acid is provided using a presynthesized set of walking primers wherein the primers have a raised annealing temperature and/or improved annealing properties without increasing sequence complexity.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 23, 1998

  • Modifying nucleotide analogues
    Patent number: 5670346
    Abstract: Fluorescently labelled dideoxynucleoside triphosphates are widely used as chain-terminators in Sanger dideoxy sequencing operations. But these unincorporated dye-terminators migrate in an electrophoresis gel and obscure the desired sequence ladder. This invention provides a method and a kit for modifying the unincorporated dye-terminators, e.g. by removal of a 5'-triphosphate group by chemical or enzymatic means e.g. by use of a phosphatase enzyme.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 7, 1995
    Date of Patent: September 23, 1997
    Assignee: Amersham International plc
    Inventors: Michael Alan Reeve, Philip Steven Robinson
  • Magnetic bead precipitation method
    Patent number: 5665554
    Abstract: A method of recovering a first material, e.g. plasmid DNA, from a solution containing pre-precipitated second material, e.g. genomic DNA and cellular debris, by precipitating the first material in the presence of magnetically attractable beads which become non-specifically associated with the newly formed precipitate, using a magnet to draw down the beads and the newly formed precipitate, and removing the supernatant.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 14, 1996
    Date of Patent: September 9, 1997
    Assignee: Amersham International PLC
