`SPONSORED RESEARCH

`
`
`
`BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
`
`The use of optically detectable labeling groups, and
`particularly those groups having high quantum yields, e.g.,
`fluorescent or chemiluminescent groups,
`is ubiquitous
`throughout the fields of analytical chemistry, biochemistry,
`and biology. In particular, by providing a highly visible
`signal associated with a given reaction, one can better
`monitor that reaction as well as any potential effectors of that
`reaction. Such analyses are the basic tools of life science
`research in genomics, diagnostics, pharmaceutical research,
`and related fields.
`Such analyses have generally been performed under con-
`ditions where the amounts of reactants are present far in
`excess of what is required for the reaction in question. The
`result of this excess is to provide ample detectability, as well
`as to compensate for any damage caused by the detection
`system and allow for signal detection with minimal impact
`on the reactants. For example, analyses based on fluorescent
`labeling groups generally require the use of an excitation
`radiation source directed at the reaction mixture to excite the
`fluorescent labeling group, which is then separately detect-
`able. However, one drawback to the use of optically detect-
`able labeling groups is that prolonged exposure of chemical
`and biochemical reactants to such light sources, alone, or
`when in the presence of other components, e.g., the fluo-
`rescent groups, can damage such reactants. The traditional
`solution to this drawback is to have the reactants present so
`far in excess that the number of undamaged reactant mol-
`
`
`ecules far outnurnbers the damaged reactant molecules, thus
`
`
`minimizing or negating the e ects of the photo-induced
`damage.
`techniques currently being
`A variety of analytical
`explored deviate from the traditional techniques. In particu-
`lar, many reactions are based on increasingly smaller
`

`in microfluidic or nanofluidic
`amounts of reagents, e.g.,
`reaction vessels or channels, or in “single molecule” analy—
`ses. Such low reactant volumes are increasingly important in
`many high throughput applications, such as microarrays.
`The use of smaller reactant volumes oflers challenges to the
`use of optical detection systems. When smaller reactant
`volumes are used, damage to reactants, such as from expo—
`sure to light sources for fluorescent detection, can become
`problematic and have a dramatic impact on the operation of
`a given analysis. In other cases, other reaction conditions
`may impact the processivity, rate, fidelity, or duration of the
`reaction, including salt or buffer conditions, pH,
`tempera—
`
`ture, or even immobilization of reaction components within
`observable reaction regions. In many cases, the e ects of
`these dilferent reaction or environmental conditions can
`degrade the performance of the system over time. This can
`be particularly detrimental, for example, in real—time analy—
`sis of reactions that include fluorescent reagents
`iat can
`expose multiple different reactions components to optical
`energy. In addition, smaller reactant volumes can lead to
`limitations in the amount of signal generated upon applica—
`tion of optical energy.
`Further, in the case of sequencing-by-synthesis applica-
`tions, an additional challenge has been to develop ways to
`clfectively sequence noncontiguous portions of a template
`nucleic acid on a single molecule. This challenge is exac—
`erbated in template nucleic acids that contain highly repeti-
`tive sequence and/or are hundreds or thousands of nucleo-
`tides in length, such as certain genomic DNA fragments. The
`difficulty in generating such noncontiguous reads from a
`single template has hampered efforts to construct consensus
`sequences for long templates,
`for example,
`in genome
`sequencing projects.
`As such, methods and systems that result in enhanced
`reaction performance, such as an increase in processivity,
`rate, fidelity, or duration of a reaction of interest, would
`provide useful improvements to the methods and composi-
`tions currently available. For example, methods, devices,
`and systems that increase reaction performance by, e.g.,
`mitigating to some extent photo-induced damage in a reac-
`tion of interest and/or increasing various other performance
`metrics for the reaction would be particularly useful.
`
`BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
`
`In a general sense, the methods provided herein imple-
`ment
`intennittent detection of analytical reactions as a
`means to collect reliable data from times during the reaction
`that are less or not able to be analyzed if detection is constant
`throughout
`the reaction.
`In particular, certain detection
`methods can cause damage to reaction components, and
`such intermittent detection allows the damage to be avoided
`or at
`least delayed,
`thereby facilitating detection of the
`reaction at later stages. For example, if a detection method
`causes a reduction in processivity of a polymerase enzyme,
`then intermittent detection would allow data collection at
`noncontiguous regions of a template nucleic acid that extend
`farther from the initial binding site of the polymerase on the
`template than would be achievable under constant detection.
`Further, some detection methods have limits on how much
`data or for how long a time data may be generated in a single
`reaction, and intermittent detection of such a reaction can
`allow this data to be collected from various stages of a
`reaction, thereby increasing the flexibility of the investigator
`to spread out the data collection over multiple stages of a
`reaction. In certain aspects, the present invention is particu-
`larly suitable to characterization of analytical reactions in

`real time, that is, during the course of the reaction. In certain
`aspects,
`the present
`invention is particularly suitable to
`characterization of single molecules or molecular complexes
`monitored in analytical
`reactions,
`for example,
`single
`enzymes, nucleotides, polynucleotides,
`and complexes

`from discontiguous portions of single nucleic acid tem-
`plates. The methods generally comprise providing a moni—
`torable sequencing reaction comprising a polymerase, tem—
`plate, and primer sequence, as well as the various types of
`nucleotides or nucleotide analogs that are to be incorporated
`by the polymerase enzyme in the template-directed primer
`extension reaction. Typically, at least one or more or all of
`the nucleotides or nucleotide analogs are embodied with a
`detectable property that permits their identification upon or
`following incorporation. In the context of the present inven-
`tion,
`the sequence data for a first portion of a template
`nucleic acid is acquired during a first stage of the reaction
`under a first set of reaction conditions that includes at least
`one reaction condition that results in degraded performance
`of the reaction, but that may contribute to the detectability
`of the nucleotides being incorporated. During a second stage
`of the reaction. the degradative influence is eliminated or
`reduced, which may result in an inability or a reduced ability
`to obtain sequence data from a second portion of the
`template nucleic acid, but where the second portion of the
`template nucleic acid is contiguous with the first portion.
`Subsequently, the reaction condition resulting in degraded
`performance is reinstated and sequence data is obtained for
`a third portion of the template nucleic acid during a third
`stage of the reaction, but where the third portion of the
`sequence is not contiguous with the first portion of the
`sequence, but is contiguous with the second portion. The
`elimination or reduction of the degradative influence during
`the second stage of the reaction may be accomplished by
`changing or shortening one or more reaction conditions
`underlying degradative reaction performance,
`e.g., by
`changing one or more reaction conditions (e.g., temperature,
`pH, exposure to radiation, physical manipulation, etc.), and
`in particular may involve altering a reaction condition
`related to detection of one or more aspects or products of the
`reaction. However, in preferred embodiments, nucleotides
`or nucleotide analogs having the detectable property are
`present
`in the reaction mixture during all stages of the
`reaction, including stages in which the degradative influence
`is eliminated or reduced; as such,
`the reaction condition
`changed in stage two of such an embodiment would not
`comprise removal or dilution of such detectable nucleotides
`or nucleotide analogs.

`In certain aspects,
`directed to methods, devices, and systems for enhancing the
`performance of illuminated reactions. The term “illuminated
`reactions” as used herein refers to reactions which are
`exposed to an optical energy source. In certain preferred
`embodiments, illuminated reactions comprise one or more
`fluorescent or fluorogenic reactants. Typically, such illumi-
`nation is provided in order to observe the generation and/or
`consumption of reactants or products that possess a particu—
`lar optical characteristic indicative of their presence, such as
`a shift in the absorbance spectrum and/or emission spectrum
`of the reaction mixture or its components. In some aspects,
`enhancing the performance of an illuminated reaction means
`increasing the processivity, rate, fidelity, and/or duration of
`the reaction. For example, enhancing the performance of an
`illuminated reaction can involve reducing or limiting the

`eflects of photo—induced damage during the reaction. The
`term “photo—induced damage” refers generally to any direct
`or indirect impact of illumination on one or more reagents in
`a reaction resulting in a negative impact upon that reaction.
`In certain aspects, methods of the invention useful for
`characterizing an analytical reaction comprise preparing a
`reaction mixture and initiating the analytical
`reaction
`therein, subjecting the reaction mixture to at
`least one
`detection period and at least one non-detection period during
`the course of the analytical reaction, collecting data during
`both the detection period(s) and the
