Assignee:

Sarnoff Corporation - Princeton NJ

International Classification:

C12Q 168
C07H 2102
C07H 2104
C12N 1500

US Classification:

435 6

Abstract:

The present invention relates to a method for capturing a class of nucleic acids comprising (a) providing a population of nucleic acids, wherein the population comprises the class; (b) binding a probe moiety to nucleic acids of the class, thereby forming one or more complexes, wherein the probe moiety is attached to a substrate; and (c) capturing the complex. The method can be implemented in certain embodiments in a structure comprised of one or more reservoirs, preferably wherein the reservoirs include one or more second chambers that are in communication with a first chamber. Preferably, the present invention is used to capture the class of nucleic acids that comprise regulatory elements included in a population of nucleic acids isolated from a cell, tissue, or organism. An alternative preferred embodiment of the present invention involves the capture of the class of nucleic acids that comprises certain repetitive elements included in a population of nucleic acids derived from an organism.
