Patent application number | Description | Published |
20110014657 | Method for sequencing a polynucleotide template - The invention relates to methods for pairwise sequencing of a double-stranded polynucleotide template, which methods result in the sequential determination of nucleotide sequences in two distinct and separate regions of the polynucleotide template. Using the methods of the invention it is possible to obtain two linked or paired reads of sequence information from each double-stranded template on a clustered array, rather than just a single sequencing read from one strand of the template. | 01-20-2011 |
20120208194 | Preparation of Templates for Nucleic Acid Sequencing - The invention relates to methods of generating templates for a nucleic acid sequencing reaction which comprise:

20120309634 | METHOD FOR PAIRWISE SEQUENCING OF TARGET POLYNUCLEOTIDES - The invention relates to methods for pairwise sequencing of a double-stranded polynucleotide template, which methods result in the sequential determination of nucleotide sequences in two distinct and separate regions of the polynucleotide template. Using the methods of the invention it is possible to obtain two linked or paired reads of sequence information from each double-stranded template on a clustered array, rather than just a single sequencing read from one strand of the template. | 12-06-2012 |
20130071879 | AMPLIFICATION METHODS TO MINIMISE SEQUENCE SPECIFIC BIAS - Methods for amplifying nucleic acids are provided. The methods can be used to minimise sequence specific bias caused by the preferential amplification of certain nucleic acid sequences. Methods are described which can lower the efficiency of AT rich templates relative to GC rich templates, thereby minimising GC bias during amplification reactions with multiple templates of different sequence. The methods are suited to solid phase amplification, for example, utilising flow cells. | 03-21-2013 |
20130178397 | USING POPULATIONS OF BEADS FOR THE FABRICATION OF ARRAYS ON SURFACES - The present invention provides a method of creating an array of features. The method can include steps of (a) providing a plurality of beads, wherein each bead in the plurality of beads includes probe content; (b) contacting the plurality of beads with a surface to produce a layer of beads on the surface; and (c) transferring the probe content from the beads to the surface to create an array of spatially discrete features on the surface, wherein each spatially discrete feature includes probe content from a bead in the plurality of beads. | 07-11-2013 |
20140066335 | Method of preparing libraries of template polynucleotides - The present invention relates to a method for preparing a library of template polynucleotides and use thereof in methods of solid-phase nucleic acid amplification. More specifically, the invention relates to a method for preparing a library of template polynucleotides that have common sequences at their 5′ ends and at their 3′ ends. | 03-06-2014 |
20140296109 | USING POPULATIONS OF BEADS FOR THE FABRICATION OF ARRAYS ON SURFACES - The present invention provides methods for creating an array of features on a surface based on content transferred from a plurality of beads to the surface. Nucleic acid content can be transferred using a method including the steps of (a) providing a surface having one or more primer oligonucleotides attached to the surface; (b) providing a pool of beads, wherein beads in the pool have a plurality of templates attached thereto, the plurality comprising multiple copies of a single nucleic acid template sequence; (c) arraying the beads onto the surface by hybridizing the templates to the primer oligonucleotides; and (d) extending the primers to produce copies of the templates attached to the surface. | 10-02-2014 |

20150050657 | TARGETED ENRICHMENT AND AMPLIFICATION OF NUCLEIC ACIDS ON A SUPPORT - Provided herein is a method of selecting target nucleic acids on a support. The method includes providing a plurality of beads each bead comprising one or more oligonucleotides, providing a support with a plurality of primers with a sequence complementary to at least a portion of the oligonucleotides on the beads, contacting the beads with the support wherein the oligonucleotides on the beads bind to the primers on the support, performing an extension reaction by extending the primers on the support to produce capture oligonucleotides, contacting the support comprising the capture oligonucleotides with the target nucleic acids, and extending the capture oligonucleotides bound to target nucleic acids to produce target extension products comprising a sequence complementary to at least a portion of the target nucleic acids. Optionally, the method further includes amplifying the target extension products. | 02-19-2015 |
