Enzymatic ligation-based identification of nucleotide sequences

摘要

Disclosed herein are novel methods for use in the analysis of nucleic acids. Uses disclosed include polynucleotide expression analysis, detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms, detection of pathogens, and detection of genetically modified cells and organisms. The method can be practiced using purified preparations of nucleic acids or unpurified cell lysates. Also provided are diagnostic methods and kits for conducting the disclosed methods.
