Patent ID: 11584952

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for preparing a DNA oligomer into which a single nucleotide is incorporated using a terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase. According to the present invention, by using a base hydrolysis reaction or a ribose-borate complex formation method, single incorporation of normal and modified nucleotides in a TdT enzyme-based DNA oligomer modification method can be facilitated. In addition, the method simultaneously provides the usability of TdT and the quantitativeness of modification group incorporation, thereby being effectively usable in the development of a quantitative detection technique or in a crosslinking reaction, both of which require quantitativeness and, according to the present invention, a DNA oligomer, into which a single nucleotide which is a product of a TdT reaction is incorporated, has an exposed a 3′ hydroxyl terminus, which is an enzyme recognition site, such that an additional enzymatic technique such as primer extension or ligation can be introduced.
