Fixation of nucleotide derivatives to solid carrier

摘要

A DNA chip or its analogue composed of nucleotide derivatives attached to a solid carrier is prepared by method of bringing nucleotide derivatives having a reactive group at each one terminal into contact with a solid carrier having thereon reactive groups in an aqueous phase in the presence of a transferase which is capable of producing a covalent bond by rearrangement of the reactive group of the nucleotide derivative and the reactive group of the solid carrier.
