Use of a DNA polymerase with proofreading activity of the 3'-specific

摘要

The invention is directed to the use of RNA or DNA polymerases having 3'-intrinsic editing activity (3'-IEA) in the presence or absence of a deactivating agent to remove a protecting group from the 3'-position of oligo- or polyribo- or deoxyribonnucleotides. The use is concerned with the incorporation of dNTPs into DNA templates in order to determine the concentration and / or sequence of said templates. In particular the use is concerned with an improved non gel-based sequencing method.
