摘要 |
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of full-length complementary DNA (cDNA). More particularly, the present invention is directed to a process for selective amplification of full-length cDNA, which comprises: i) a step for preparing a hybrid composed of a messenger RNA (mRNA) strand and a cDNA strand of which three (3) or four (4) deoxycitidinemono phosphate (dCMP) are combined at 3' end, by treating mRNA with reverse transcriptase; separately from the above step, ii) a step for adenylating single strand anchor of which biotin or phosphate group is combined at 3' end, and phosphate group is combined at 5' end; iii) a step for ligating said adenylated single strand anchor to 3' end of full-length cDNA strand of said cDNA/mRNA hybrid to select full-length cDNA/mRNA hybrid; and iv) a step for amplifying only the full-length cDNA/mRNA hybrid through polymerase chain reaction (PCR) which employs a primer of which base sequence is complementary to that of said anchor.
