The present invention describes new compositions of matter in the form of labeled nucleoside polyphosphates with four or more phosphates. In addition compositions of nucleoside polyphosphates with four or more phosphates that are substrates for nucleic acid polymerases with enhanced substrate properties and methods of using these nucleoside polyphosphates for nucleic acid detection, charcterization and quantification are described. The compositions provided by this invention include nucleoside polyphosphate, dideoxynucleoside polyphosphate, or deoxynucleoside polyphosphate analogues which have calorimetric, chemiluminescent, or fluorescent moieties, mass tags or an electrochemical tags attached to the terminal-phosphate. When a nucleic acid polymerase uses this analogue as a substrate, an enzyme-activatable label would be present on the inorganic polyphosphate by-product of phosphoryl transfer. Cleavage of the polyphosphate product of phosphoryl transfer via phosphatase leads to a detectable change in the label attached thereon. When the polymerase assay is performed in the presence of a phosphatase, there is provided a convenient method for real-time monitoring of DNA or RNA synthesis and detection of a target nucleic acid.
本发明描述了具有四个或更多磷酸盐的标记核苷多磷酸盐形式的新物质组合物。此外,本发明还描述了作为核酸聚合酶底物的具有四个或更多磷酸盐的核苷聚磷酸盐的组合物,这些组合物具有增强的底物特性,以及使用这些核苷聚磷酸盐进行核酸检测、鉴定和定量的方法。本发明提供的组合物包括核苷聚磷酸盐、双脱氧核苷聚磷酸盐或脱氧核苷聚磷酸盐类似物,它们的末端磷酸盐上附有热量测定、化学发光或荧光分子、质量标签或电化学标签。当核酸聚合酶使用这种类似物作为底物时,磷酰转移的无机多磷酸副产物上就会出现酶活标签。通过磷酸酶裂解磷酰转移的多磷酸盐产物会导致其上附着的标签发生可检测的变化。当聚合酶检测在磷酸酶存在的情况下进行时,就提供了一种实时监测 DNA 或 RNA 合成和检测目标核酸的便捷方法。
