Patents by Inventor Zana KAPUSTINA

Zana KAPUSTINA has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20240102003
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes oligonucleotide-tethered nucleotides, methods of making them, and methods of using them. The oligonucleotide-tethered nucleotides comprise, in some embodiments, a nucleotide linked to an oligonucleotide of from about 3 to about 100 nucleotides in length. These oligonucleotide-tethered nucleotides can be used to label a plurality of different types of nucleic acids in a plurality of different situations with a known oligonucleotide, which can serve as a barcode in some embodiments. The resulting oligonucleotide-labeled nucleic acids oligo-nucleotides can be used in a variety of nucleic acid sequencing methods.

  • Publication number: 20230174957
    Abstract: This application relates to mutant polymerases. This application discloses mutant phage-type RNA polymerases, such as a mutant T7, SP6, and T3 RNA polymerase, may use 2?-modified nucleoside triphosphates or deoxynucleotide triphosphates as substrates. Methods for producing nucleic acid molecules using these mutant polymerases are also disclosed.
