<p>The present disclosure provides details of an invention comprising an amplification system for the detection of target nucleic acids, most particularly target nucleic acid sequences, in an isothermal setting wherein all of the reagents necessary to conduct the amplification are present and the reactions are self-sustaining and continuous. Featured is a selective enzymatic digestion of an RNA/DNA duplex, formed by hybridization of a DNA primer with target nucleic acid, thus freeing the DNA strand for further hybridization followed by primer extension to provide a DNA duplex that can serve as a template for production of a plurality of transcripts that can be recycled and/or detected as such for deduced presence of target nucleic acid sequence.</p> |
