Abstract:
Provided herein are compositions and systems for use in polymerase-dependent, nucleotide transient-binding methods. The methods are useful for deducing the sequence of a template nucleic acid molecule and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analyses. The methods rely on the fact that the polymerase transient-binding time for a complementary nucleotide is longer compared to that of a non-complementary nucleotide. The labeled nucleotides transiently-binds the polymerase in a template-dependent manner, but does not incorporate. The methods are conducted under any reaction condition that permits transient binding of a complementary or non-complementary nucleotide to a polymerase, and inhibits nucleotide incorporation.

Abstract:
Support surfaces are disclosed that are designed to support molecules or molecular assemblies immobilized thereon so that the molecules or molecular assemblies can be observed in single molecule detections systems, where the support surfaces have reduced background and the fluorescent labels associated with the immobilized molecules or molecular assemblies have longer active lifetimes prior to permanent photo-bleaching or deactivation and have improve fluorescence properties and where the surfaces have more uniform fluorescent properties.

Abstract:
Labeled nucleotide triphosphates are disclosed having a label bonded to the gamma phosphate of the nucleotide triphosphate. Methods for using the gamma phosphate labeled nucleotide are also disclosed where the gamma phosphate labeled nucleotide are used to attach the labeled gamma phosphate in a catalyzed (enzyme or man-made catalyst) reaction to a target biomolecule or to exchange a phosphate on a target biomolecule with a labeled gamme phosphate. Preferred target biomolecules are DNAs, RNAs, DNA/RNAs, PNA, polypeptide (e.g., proteins enzymes, protein, assemblages, etc.), sugars and polysaccharides or mixed biomolecules having two or more of DNAs, RNAs, DNA/RNAs, polypeptide, sugars and polysaccharides moieties.
