ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method of detecting a polynucleotide, comprising hybridizing a polynucleotide of known nucleotide sequence with a nuclease-resistant oligonucleotide primer having a sequence complementary to a part of the polynucleotide, then adding at least one kind of deoxynucleoside triphosphate, DNA polymerase and nuclease thereto, synthesizing a complementary strand being a nucleotide species located adjacent to the 3'-terminal of the primer and complementary to the polynucleotide, followed by decomposition thereof, the synthesis and decomposition of the complementary strand being repeated one or more times, and detecting the resulting pyrophosphoric acid or deoxynucleoside monophosphate. The present invention also includes a detection kit used for this method of detecting a polynucleotide.
