Studies on the minimal lengths required for DNA primers to be extended by the Tetrahymena telomerase: implications for primer positioning by the enzyme [PDF]
Telomerase is a specialized reverse transcriptase that contains an integral RNA subunit including a short template sequence. It extends telomeric 3' overhangs and chromosome breakpoints by catalyzing reiterative copying of this internal template into ...

Blocking primers to enhance PCR amplification of rare sequences in mixed samples – a case study on prey DNA in Antarctic krill stomachs [PDF]
Background Identification of DNA sequence diversity is a powerful means for assessing the species present in environmental samples. The most common molecular strategies for estimating taxonomic composition depend upon PCR with universal primers that ...

Comparing the performance of 12S mitochondrial primers for fish environmental DNA across ecosystems
Through the development of environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding, in situ monitoring of organisms is becoming easier and promises a revolution in our approaches to detect changes in biodiversity over space and time. A cornerstone of eDNA approach is the

Allele-Specific PCR for PIK3CA Mutation Detection Using Phosphoryl Guanidine Modified Primers
Phosphoryl guanidine (PG) is the novel uncharged modification of internucleotide phosphates of oligonucleotides. Incorporating PG modification into PCR primers leads to increased discrimination between wild-type and mutated DNA, providing extraordinary ...

Improved efficiency and robustness in qPCR and multiplex end-point PCR by twisted intercalating nucleic acid modified primers. [PDF]
We introduce quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) primers and multiplex end-point PCR primers modified by the addition of a single ortho-Twisted Intercalating Nucleic Acid (o-TINA) molecule at the 5'-end.

DNA amplified fingerprinting, a useful tool for determination of genetic origin and diversity analysis in Citrus [PDF]
We used three short repetitive nucleotide sequences [(GTG)5, (TAC)5, and (GACA)4] either as radiolabeled probes for hybridization with restricted Citrus DNA or as single primers in polymerase chain reaction amplification experiments with total genomic ...

ISSR primer screening for analysis of genetic diversity among Scutellaria tuvensis (Lamiaceae) populations [PDF]
Using the Diamond DNA kit, high quality nuclear DNA was isolated from dry leaves of the endemic species Scutellaria tuvensis. The selection of primers for ISSR analysis of genetic polymorphism of natural populations is described.
