genomic multi loci analysis using an improved method based on cyclic dna sequencing

摘要

The invention provides a method of sequencing a nucleic acid in a reaction mixture comprising first and second nucleic acid target sequences. The target sequences may be present on the same or different nucleic acid molecules. First and second labelled sequencing primers are provided that are hybridizable, respectively, to the first and second nucleic acid target sequences. The second sequencing primer being at least as long as the total length of the first sequencing primer plus the length of the first target sequence. Each of the sequencing primer extension products beginning with the second sequencing primer will be longer than the primer extension products in the pool beginning with the first sequencing primer. Once the sequencing reactions have been completed, the lengths of the primer extension products in the pool may be detected by known methods, such as by gel electrophoresis.
