Description

Nucleic acid amplification method and kit containing modified primer
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of biology, and particularly relates to a nucleic acid amplification method containing a modified primer and a kit.
Background
Nucleic acid amplification techniques are commonly used for nucleic acid-based detection, such as analyte detection, sensing, forensic and diagnostic applications, genome sequencing, whole genome amplification, and the like.
Currently, a variety of techniques are available for amplifying nucleic acids, including Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), Ligase Chain Reaction (LCR), autonomous sequence replication system (3SR), Nucleic Acid Sequence Based Amplification (NASBA), Strand Displacement Amplification (SDA), Multiple Displacement Amplification (MDA), and Rolling Circle Amplification (RCA).
In the case of PCR technology, the basic principle of nucleic acid amplification is an enzymatic synthesis reaction that relies on a thermostable DNA polymerase in the presence of template DNA, primers and 4 deoxymononucleotides. In PCR, a DNA to be amplified is used as a template, two oligonucleotides which are complementary to the ends of a positive strand and a negative strand of the template are used as primers, and a new template DNA is synthesized by template DNA denaturation, template primer renaturation combination and primer chain extension reaction under the action of DNA polymerase. Thus, the amount of the DNA of interest will accumulate in an exponentially increasing fashion, and the segment of the template between the two primers will be amplified continuously. The amplification product can be detected by gel electrophoresis, Southern hybridization or DNA sequence analysis.
The current common nucleic acid amplification technology can simply, conveniently and quickly obtain a large amount of specific nucleic acid from a trace amount of biological materials in an in-vitro amplification mode, and can be used for detecting trace amount of samples in animal quarantine.
