Abstract:
The present invention provides methods, compositions and kits for enriching and determining nucleotide sequences of a plurality of target loci from a sample comprising nucleic acids. The methods comprise one or more cycles of primer extension followed by PCR amplification of target sequences using nested target-specific primers.

Claim (Index 12):
A method of determining a target nucleotide sequence having a locus of interest in a nucleic acid sample comprising a nucleic acid template comprising the target nucleotide sequence, the method comprising:\n (i) enriching the target nucleotide sequence having the locus of interest using the method of  claim 6 ; and (ii) performing next-generation sequencing of the amplicons of the target nucleotide sequence, thereby providing the target nucleotide sequence, optionally, wherein: (a) target nucleotide sequences having about 2-5000 different loci of interest are determined simultaneously; (b) the method further comprising preparing a sequencing library using the amplicons of the target nucleotide sequence prior to the next-generation sequencing of step (ii).
