Abstract
A method for sequencing a nucleic acid is provided. In certain embodiments the method comprises obtaining a duplex comprising a nucleic acid and a primer, wherein the primer has a nuclease resistant 3' end, combining the duplex with a chain terminator nucleotide and a proof-reading polymerase to produce a reaction in which the polymerase idles on the added chain terminator nucleotide, identifying the chain terminator nucleotide added to the end of the primer; and adding a nuclease-resistant nucleotide to the end of the primer after the polymerase has idled on and removed the added chain terminator nucleotide, thereby producing a duplex comprising the template and an extended primer that has a nuclease resistant 3′ end.
