| 20090311754 | Polynucleotide Amplification - The present invention provides a method for amplifying a pool of polynucleotide molecules in a sample, characterized by the steps of a) obtaining a sample or RNA and reverse transcription of entire RNA molecules thus creating full length cDNA or obtaining a sample of full length cDNA, b) tailing the 3′ end of the transcribed cDNA with a polynucleotide tail after the 3′ end, c) amplification of the cDNA using a pair of primers, wherein a first 3′ primer is specific for the 5′ end of the cDNA and a second 5′ primer is specific for the a upstream portion of the polynucleotide tail and the next 1 to 10 nucleotides upstream of the 3′polynucleotide tail of the cDNA. | 12-17-2009 |
