Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and related methods, e.g., for preparing immobilized nucleic acid nanostructures using compaction oligonucleotides. In some embodiments, rolling circle amplification reaction can be conducted with compaction oligonucleotides on-support or in-solution to generate concatemer molecules having multiple copies of a polynucleotide unit arranged in tandem. Each polynucleotide unit comprises a sequence-of-interest and at least one universal adaptor sequence that binds one end of a compaction oligonucleotide. The 5? and 3? regions of the compaction oligonucleotide can hybridize to the concatemer to pull together distal portions of the concatemer causing compaction of the concatemer to form a nanostructure. Nanostructures having tighter size and shape compared to concatemers generated in the absence of the compaction oligonucleotides.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and methods that employ the compositions for conducting pairwise sequencing and for generating concatemer template molecules for pairwise sequencing. The concatemers can be generated using a rolling circle amplification reaction which is conducted either on-support, or conducted in-solution and then distributed onto a support. The rolling circle amplification reaction generates concatemers containing tandem copies of a sequence of interest and at least one universal adaptor sequence. An increase in the number of tandem copies in a given concatemer increases the number of sites along the concatemer for hybridizing to multiple sequencing primers which serve as multiple initiation sites for polymerase-catalyzed sequencing reactions. When the sequencing reaction employs detectably labeled nucleotides and/or detectably labeled multivalent molecules (e.g.

Abstract: Provided herein are fluorescently-labeled nucleotide conjugates for nucleic acid analysis. Also provided are reagents used for forming binding complexes between a fluorescently-labeled nucleotide conjugate and a target nucleic acid sequence in the presence of one or more reagents disclosed herein. Binding complexes can be detected in the presence of the one or more reagents. For example, the one or more reagents may contain a photobleaching reducing agent configured to reduce photobleaching resulting from use of the fluorescently-labeled nucleotide conjugate to form the binding complex in a nucleic acid analysis. Such nucleic acid analysis may be used to identify sites of nucleobase binding or incorporation between the target nucleic acid sequence and one or more nucleotide moieties of the fluorescently-labeled nucleotide conjugate in a nucleic acid sequence reaction.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions comprising nucleic acid double-stranded splint adaptors, including kits, and methods that employ the double-stranded splint adaptors. The double-stranded splint adaptors (200) can be used in a one-pot, multi-enzyme reaction to introduce one or more new adaptor sequences into a library molecule. The double-stranded splint adaptor (200) comprises a first splint strand (long splint strand (300)) and a second splint strand (short splint strand (400)), where the first and second splint strands are hybridized together to form the double-stranded splint adaptor (200) having a double-stranded region and two flanking single-stranded regions. The second splint strand (400) carries the new adaptor sequence(s) to be introduced, such as for example a universal binding sequence and/or an index sequence.
