Engineering of a DNA Polymerase for Direct m6A Sequencing

2017

Methods for the detection of RNA modifications are of fundamental importance for advancing epitranscriptomics. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant RNA modification in mammalian mRNA and is involved in the regulation of gene expression. Current detection techniques are laborious and rely on antibody-based enrichment of m6A-containing RNA prior to sequencing, since m6A modifications are generally "erased" during reverse transcription (RT). To overcome the drawbacks associated with indirect detection, we aimed to generate novel DNA polymerase variants for direct m6A sequencing. Therefore, we developed a screen to evolve an RT-active KlenTaq DNA polymerase variant that sets a mark for…

Reliability of Restriction Enzyme Digestions of Genomic DNA for the Generation of DNA Fingerprints

1991

Since minisatellite DNA probes are used for the detection of hypervariable loci in eucaryotic genomes [1] the application of so called DNA fingerprints and DNA technology itself in paternity testing and forensic casework is critically discussed ([3]; Brinkmann et al., this volume). A particular problem is the possibility of obtaining partially digested genomic DNA in casework after treatment with restriction enzymes leading to inconclusive or even false results. This is even more important when multilocus DNA probes are used, since the total number of fragments in a given person is not known in advance. But also with single locus probes, where only two allelic fragments are usually detected…
