This disclosure provides, among other things, a composition comprising: comprising a fusion protein comprising: (a) a DNA polymerase; and (b) a heterologous sequence-specific DNA binding domain. A method for copying a DNA template, as well as a kit for performing the same, are also described.

Fusion polymerase and method for using the same

The present disclosure relates, according to some embodiments, to methods for preparing a library for sequencing. For example, a method may comprise (a) in a coupled reaction, (i) contacting a population of nucleic acid fragments with a tailing enzyme to produce tailed fragments, and (ii) ligating to the tailed fragments a sequencing adapter with a ligase to produce adapter-tagged fragments; and/or separating adapter-tagged fragments from the tailing enzyme and the ligase to produce separated adapter-tagged fragments and, optionally, separated tailing enzyme and/or separated ligase. In some embodiments, a tailing enzyme and/or a ligase used in library preparation may be immobilized enzymes.

Application of immobilized enzymes for nanopore library construction

This disclosure provides, among other things, a composition comprising: a 5' exonuclease; a strand-displacing polymerase; and optionally a single strand DNA binding protein and/or a ligase. A method for polynucleotide assembly to form a synthon, as well as a kit for performing the same, are also described.

Synthon formation

A new type of transgene system is disclosed which allows efficient protein expression in a target host such as a plant, but avoids the undesirable result of the migration of the transgene into related host system and/or to the environment via the pollen. The methods described herein may also be applied to the expression of virtually any protein of interest (e.g. a toxic protein) in eukaryotic (yeast, insect, mammalian cells, etc.) and prokaryotic (, etc.) organisms.
