Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090176662End Modification to Prevent Over-Representation of Fragments - The invention relates to a method of preparing a 5′ and 3′ modified library of template polynucleotides and also the use of the 5′ and 3′ modified library of templates in methods of solid-phase nucleic acid amplification. In particular, the invention relates to a method of preparing a 5′ and 3′ modified library of template polynucleotides which have common sequences at their 5′ ends and at their 3′ ends, wherein over-representation of “end” sequences of the primary polynucleotide molecules from whence the 5′ and 3′ modified library is generated is greatly reduced or prevented.07-09-2009
20100041561Preparation of Nucleic Acid Templates for Solid Phase Amplification - The invention relates to a method of preparing template constructs for solid-phase nucleic acid amplification and to use of the templates in methods of solid-phase nucleic acid amplification. The method involves carrying out two ligation reactions: (a) a ligation reaction in which the first end of one or more target polynucleotide molecules are ligated to surface-bound adaptor polynucleotide molecules, and (b) a ligation reaction in which solution-phase adaptor polynucleotide molecules are ligated to the second end of said target polynucleotide molecules, in order to produce one or more template constructs attached to a solid support.02-18-2010
20100167954METHOD OF LIBRARY PREPARATION AVOIDING THE FORMATION OF ADAPTOR DIMERS - The invention relates to a method of preparing a library of template polynucleotides which reduces and/or prevents the formation of adaptor-dimers. The invention also relates to the use of a library of templates prepared using the method of the invention for solid-phase nucleic acid amplification. In particular, the invention relates to a method of preparing a library of template polynucleotides which have common sequences at their 5′ ends and at their 3′ ends which is substantially free of adaptor-dimers.07-01-2010
20110009276Method for Sequencing a Polynucleotide Template - The invention provides 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.01-13-2011

20080220986Method for retaining even coverage of short insert libraries - The invention relates to a method of preparing a library of template polynucleotides with uniform sequence representation and to use of a library of templates prepared using this method for solid-phase nucleic acid amplification. In particular, the invention relates to a method of preparing a library of template polynucleotides which have common sequences at their 5′ ends and at their 3′ ends, which contains even representation of all the fragments present in a starting sample of nucleic acid before fragmentation. The invention is especially applicable to the preparation of short insert libraries, where the sample fragments are less than 150 base pairs in length.09-11-2008
20090093378Method 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.04-09-2009
