Dna Fingerprinting Using A Branch Migration Assay

View page
US Patent:
7238486, Jul 3, 2007
Filed:
Sep 20, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/231657
Inventors:
Nader Pourmand - Mountain View CA, US
Ronald W. Davis - Palo Alto CA, US
Shan X. Wang - Portola Valley CA, US
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
C12Q 1/68
C07H 21/02
C07H 21/04
US Classification:
435 6, 536 231, 536 243
Abstract:
A method of determining the length of a polynucleotide target is provided. With this method, a target is first hybridized to an array of first probes having different, determined lengths, resulting in the formation of duplexes between the polynucleotide target and the first probes. These duplexes have a single stranded section of target if the target is longer than the first probe it is in a duplex with. Next, a second probe having a determined length is hybridized to these duplexes. If the length of the target is greater than the length of the first probe it is displaced during this hybridization step by the process of branch migration. In contrast, if the length of the target is less than or equal to the length of the first probe, it is not displaced. Thus, the length of the polynucleotide target can be determined.

Dna Fingerprinting Using A Branch Migration Assay

US Patent:
7501253, Mar 10, 2009
Filed:
Apr 24, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/789559
Inventors:
Nader Pourmand - San Mateo CA, US
Ronald W. Davis - Palo Alto CA, US
Shan X. Wang - Portola Valley CA, US
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
C12Q 1/68
C07H 21/02
C07H 21/04
US Classification:
435 6, 536 231, 536 243
Abstract:
A method of determining the length of a polynucleotide target is provided. With this method, a target is first hybridized to an array of first probes having different, determined lengths, resulting in the formation of duplexes between the polynucleotide target and the first probes. These duplexes have a single stranded section of target if the target is longer than the first probe it is in a duplex with, and a single stranded section of probe if the target is shorter than the first probe it is in a duplex with. Next, a series of probes is hybridized to the duplexes, breaking apart duplexes in which the target and probe have unequal lengths through the process of branch migration. Thus, the target only remains bound in the duplex if the target and probe are of equal lengths. The length of the polynucleotide target can thereby be determined.

View page
US Patent:
7615382, Nov 10, 2009
Filed:
Nov 9, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/595818
Inventors:
Shan X. Wang - Portola Valley CA, US
Nader Pourmand - San Mateo CA, US
Robert L. White - Stanford CA, US
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
G01N 33/553
B03C 1/30
US Classification:
436526, 436518, 436538, 209 38, 209214, 209215
Abstract:
The present invention provides a magnetic sifter that is small in scale, enables three-dimensional flow in a direction normal to the substrate, allows relatively higher capture rates and higher flow rates, and provides a relatively easy method of releasing captured biomolecules. The magnetic sifter includes at least one substrate. Each substrate contains a plurality of slits, each of which extends through the substrate. The sifter also includes a plurality of magnets attached to the bottom surface of the substrate. These magnets are located proximal to the openings of the slits. An electromagnetic source controls the magnitude and direction of magnetic field gradient generated by the magnets. Either one device may be used, or multiple devices may be used in series. In addition, the magnetic sifter may be used in connection with a detection chamber.

Charge Perturbation Detection System For Dna And Other Molecules

View page
US Patent:
7785785, Aug 31, 2010
Filed:
Nov 10, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/271678
Inventors:
Nader Pourmand - San Mateo CA, US
Ronald W. Davis - Palo Alto CA, US
Miloslav Karhanek - Palo Alto CA, US
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
C12Q 1/68
C12M 1/36
G01N 15/06
C07H 21/04
US Classification:
435 6, 4352831, 4352872, 422 681, 422 8201, 536 231
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for direct detection of chemical reactions are provided. In a preferred embodiment, electric charge perturbations of the local environment during enzyme-catalyzed reactions are sensed by an electrode system with an immobilized target molecule. The target molecule is preferably DNA. The charge perturbation caused by the polymerase reaction can uniquely identify a DNA sequence. The polymerization process generates local perturbations of charge in the solution near the electrode surface and induces a charge in a polarazible gold electrode. This event is detected as a transient current by a voltage clamp amplifier. Detection of single nucleotides in a sequence can be determined by dispensing individual dNTPs to the electrode solution and detecting the charge perturbations. Alternatively, multiple bases can be determined at the same time using a mix of all dNTPs with subsequent analysis of the resulting signal. The initial enzyme attachment to the DNA molecule can be detected prior to polymerization, with electrode capacitance measurement using the same voltage-clamp amplifier.

Multiplexed Assay And Probes For Identification Of Hpv Types

View page
US Patent:
7875428, Jan 25, 2011
Filed:
Feb 13, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/707832
Inventors:
Nader Pourmand - San Mateo CA, US
Baback Gharizadeh - Palo Alto CA, US
Ronald W. Davis - Palo Alto CA, US
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
C12Q 1/68
C12P 19/34
C12M 3/00
C07H 21/04
US Classification:
435 6, 435 912, 4352872, 536 243
Abstract:
A DNA microarray, preferably in the form of a chip, contains probes which hybridize to generate primers capable of amplifying approximately 89 HPV types. These target the E1 region of the gene. The design of the chip allows for the detection of any known HPV type, based on a unique probe sequence derived from the HPV E1 region. The present assay utilizes a number of primers that can amplify from about one to six different types of HPV. A large number of primers can be used together. After amplification, the amplicons are contacted with specific probes that are unique for each HPV type. The array further employs a control sequence, which normalizes variability due to sample size.

Rapid, Informative Diagnostic Assay For Influenza Viruses Including H5N1

View page
US Patent:
7989185, Aug 2, 2011
Filed:
Nov 27, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/945960
Inventors:
Nader Pourmand - San Mateo CA, US
Lisa Diamond - Ross CA, US
Jochen Kumm - Redwood City CA, US
Ronald W. Davis - Palo Alto CA, US
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
C12Q 1/68
C12P 19/34
US Classification:
435 912, 435 6, 435 911
Abstract:
A rapid diagnostic assay for influenza virus, particularly avian influenza and more particularly H5N1, is described. The assay is based on amplification of a significant portion of the hemagglutinin (HA) gene and sequencing of several loci within the HA gene, using techniques which can obtain real time sequence information from multiple sites of a target DNA, in particular pyrosequencing and bioluminescence regenerative cycle. The assay contemplates the use of information-rich subsequences within the HA gene, e. g. , (1) a glycosylation sequon; (2) receptor binding site; and (3) HA1/HA2 cleavage site. Other subsequences for sequencing include strain and clade markers, which vary among H5N1 strains.

Biomolecule Immobilization On Biosensors

View page
US Patent:
7989396, Aug 2, 2011
Filed:
Dec 3, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/949442
Inventors:
Heng Yu - Mountain View CA, US
Nader Pourmand - San Mateo CA, US
Shan X. Wang - Portola Valley CA, US
Assignee:
The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
C40B 50/18
C40B 60/02
US Classification:
506 32, 506 34
Abstract:
A highly specific and versatile surface chemistry for immobilization of amine-terminated probes is disclosed. A bi-layered polymer thin film serves as the platform for coupling the probes, which are preferably oligonucleotides. The process involves sequentially coating a substrate with polyamine and polyacid anhydride. Hydrolyzed polyacid anhydride groups may be converted to non-hydrolyzed groups at about 100 C. prior to probe attachment. The process of coating the substrate requires no harsh chemical pretreatment of substrates such as RCA or Piranha cleaning. In addition, simple thermal activation of the anhydride groups has a low requirement for storage, leading to a long shelf life of modified surfaces. The disclosed surface chemistry is especially compatible with microfabrication processes, and its effective application to magnetic biosensors is demonstrated.
