Provided are compositions, methods and systems for determining the sequence of a template nucleic acid using a polymerase-based, sequencing-by-binding procedure. An examination step involves monitoring the interaction between a polymerase and template nucleic acid in the presence of one or more nucleotides. Identity of the next correct nucleotide in the sequence is determined without incorporation of any nucleotide into the structure of the primer by formation of a phosphodiester bond. An optional incorporation step can be used after the examination step to extend the primer by one or more nucleotides, thereby incrementing the template nucleotides that can be examined in a subsequent examination step. The sequencing-by-binding procedure does not require the use of labeled nucleotides or polymerases, but optionally can employ these reagents.
本文提供了利用基于聚合酶的结合测序程序确定模板核酸序列的组合物、方法和系统。检查步骤包括在存在一个或多个核苷酸的情况下监测聚合酶与模板核酸之间的相互作用。在序列中确定下一个正确核苷酸的身份时,无需通过形成磷酸二酯键将任何核苷酸掺入引物结构中。在检查步骤之后,可以使用一个可选的结合步骤,将引物延长一个或多个核苷酸,从而增加可在后续检查步骤中检查的模板核苷酸。结合测序程序不需要使用标记核苷酸或聚合酶,但也可选择使用这些试剂。
