DETECTION OF TARGET NUCLEIC ACID SEQUENCES BY PTO CLEAVAGE AND EXTENSION-DEPENDENT EXTENSION ASSAY

摘要

The present invention relates to the detection of a target nucleic acid sequence by a PTOCE-E (PTO Cleavage and Extension-dependent Extension) assay. The PTOCE-E assay of the present invention can reduce the non-target signal and increase the target signal as compared with the conventional PTOCE and PCE-SH methods, thereby enabling more accurate detection of the target nucleic acid sequence.
