摘要 |
Provided herein are approaches for the detection, identification, and/or selective amplification of specific target species or target variants of nucleic acid sequences, even within an excess of unwanted similar sequences or variants. These approaches include methods, assays, and kits for suppression PCR that require, in part, DNA polymerase that lacks 5'-3' exonuclease activity, and a PCR primer, termed a forward selective primer or a nunchaku primer. The methods, assays, and kits provided herein are useful for a wide variety of applications, including cancer screening assays and kits, personalized screening assays, SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) genotyping and identification, and downstream applications such as next generation high-throughput genomic sequencing and library construction. |
