Provided are novel nucleotides, nucleoside, and their derivatives described herein, that can be used in DNA sequencing technology and other types of DNA analysis. In one embodiment, the nucleotide or nucleoside with an unprotected 3′-OH group is derivatized at the nucleobase to include a fluorescent dye attached via a linker to a photocleavable terminating group. The photocleavable-fluorescent group is designed to terminate DNA synthesis as well as be cleaved so that DNA oligomers can be sequenced efficiently in a parallel format. The design of such rapidly cleavable fluorescent groups on nucleotides and nucleosides can enhance the speed and accuracy of sequencing of large oligomers of DNA in parallel, to allow rapid whole genome sequencing, and the identification of polymorphisms and other valuable genetic information, as well as allowing further manipulation and analysis of nucleic acid molecules in their native state following cleavage of the fluorescent group.
本文介绍了新型核苷酸、核苷和其衍生物,可用于DNA测序技术和其他类型的DNA分析。在一个实施例中,未保护的3'-OH基团的核苷酸或核苷被衍生化,以在核碱基上包含通过连接剂连接到光解可断裂终止基团的荧光染料。光解可断裂的荧光基团被设计为终止DNA合成,并被裂解,以便在并行格式中高效地对DNA寡聚物进行测序。在核苷酸和核苷上设计这种快速可裂解的荧光基团,可以增强大型DNA寡聚物并行测序的速度和准确性,以实现快速的全基因组测序,并识别多态性和其他有价值的遗传信息,同时允许在裂解荧光基团后进一步操作和分析核酸分子的原生状态。
