Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
77 words
A process for the specific production of ribonucleic acids comprising the steps of: a) hybridizing a template specific promotor oligonucleotide P1 and a template specific oligonucleotide P2 with a template nucleic acid T to form a complex K, and b) forming transcripts R containing at least the template specific sequence information from P1 to P2 by promotor controlled transcription, wherein the oligonucleotides P1 and P2 used are not enzymatically ligated together in any step in the process.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
77 words
A process for the specific production of ribonucleic acids comprising the steps of: a) hybridizing a template specific promotor oligonucleotide P1 and a template specific oligonucleotide P2 with a template nucleic acid T to form a complex K, and b) forming transcripts R containing at least the template specific sequence information from P1 to P2 by promotor controlled transcription, wherein the oligonucleotides P1 and P2 used are not enzymatically ligated together in any step in the process.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
31 words
The process according to claim 1, further comprising the steps of: hybridizing the transcripts R with oligonucleotides P1 and P2 to form complex K', and transcribing K' by promotor controlled transcription.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
18 words
The process according to claim 1, wherein the amount of P1 is equal to the amount of P2.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
15 words
The process according to claim 1, wherein the process is carried out at one temperature.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
26 words
The process according to claim 1, wherein monoribonucleoside triphosphates which are detectably labelled or capable of being immobilized are incorporated into the transcripts R during transcription.

Claim 8
Dependent Claim
25 words
The process according to claim 1, wherein the transcripts R formed in step b) contain at least the template specific information from P1 to P2.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
