  • Composition and Method for Synthesizing a Deoxyribonucleotide Chain Using a Double Stranded Nucleic Acid Complex with a Thermostable Polymerase
    Publication number: 20110111462
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of molecular biology, and more particular, to a nucleic acid construct for use in amplification processes. More precisely, the invention enhances the specificity of amplification of nucleic acids by means of a double stranded oligonucleotide modified with a molecule having the ability to prevent extension of the double stranded nucleic acid.

  • Novel modular type II restriction endonuclease, cspci, and the use of modular endonucleases for generating endonucleases with new specificities
    Publication number: 20070166719
    Abstract: A novel restriction endonuclease and methods of making the same are obtainable from either Citrobacter species 2144 (NEB#1398) or the recombinant stain Escherichia coli (NEB#1554) which cleaves at nt sequence 5?-CAANNNNNGTGG-3? (SEQ ID NO:14) in double-stranded DNA molecules. The novel restriction endonuclease is a modular protein in which the specificity moiety is an independent module from the restriction-modification module.
