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 7
Dependent Claim 15 words
The process according to claim 1, wherein P2 is immobilized or capable of being immobilized.
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 84 words
A process for the specific detection of a template nucleic acid 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, b) forming transcripts R containing at least the template specific sequence information from P1 to P2 by promotor controlled transcription, and c) detecting said transcripts R, wherein the oligonucleotides P1 and P2 used are not enzymatically ligated together in any step in the process.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 84 words
A process for the specific detection of a template nucleic acid 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, b) forming transcripts R containing at least the template specific sequence information from P1 to P2 by promotor controlled transcription, and c) detecting said transcripts R, wherein the oligonucleotides P1 and P2 used are not enzymatically ligated together in any step in the process.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 31 words
The process according to claim 8, 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 12
Dependent Claim 26 words
The process according to claim 8, wherein monoribonucleoside triphosphates which are detectably labeled or capable of being immobilized are incorporated into the transcripts R during transcription.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 15 words
The process according to claim 8, wherein P2 is immobilized or capable of being immobilized.
