The present invention provides a method for the isolation of sperm DNA from swabs taken from rape victims without having to perform a change in buffers. Non-sperm cells from the victim are digested with an enzyme and solubilized, and then in the same buffer an enzyme capable of digesting soluble DNA is added and the victim's DNA is degraded, leaving only the rapist's DNA intact. Since no change of buffer is needed, no centrifugation or filtration steps are needed. The inventive method has utility particularly in the forensic science field.

Homogeneous method to prepare sperm DNA from sexual assault cases

This invention relates to the detection and analysis by mass spec of nascent proteins, and in particular truncated proteins, translated within cellular or cell-free translation systems. N-terminal and C-terminal epitopes introduced into these nascent proteins permit rapid and efficient isolation, as well as mass difference.
