AB-INITIO, TEMPLATE-INDEPENDENT SYNTHESIS OF NUCLEIC ACIDS USING THERMOSTABLE ENZYMES
The invention relates to the field of nucleic acid synthesis or sequencing, more specifically to methods for ab-initio synthesis of nucleic acids, comprising contacting a nucleotide with a free 3′-hydroxyl group, with at least one nucleoside triphosphate, or a combination of nucleoside triphosphates...

Summary: | The invention relates to the field of nucleic acid synthesis or sequencing, more specifically to methods for ab-initio synthesis of nucleic acids, comprising contacting a nucleotide with a free 3′-hydroxyl group, with at least one nucleoside triphosphate, or a combination of nucleoside triphosphates, in the presence of an archaeal DNA primase or a functionally active fragment and/or variant thereof, thereby covalently binding said nucleoside triphosphate to the free 3′-hydroxyl group of the nucleotide. It also relates to isolated functionally active fragments of archaeal DNA primases which are capable of both ab-initio single-stranded nucleic acid synthesis activity and template-independent terminal nucleotidyl transferase activity. |
