8. Step 3: Oxidation Reaction In the coupling step, the base was added to the previous base: Form unstable phosphite triester linkage. Iodine in water is used as oxidation solution. Unstable phosphite triester linkage is oxidized to form a more stable phosphate triester linkage. Cyanoethyl protecting group is still on the linkage. The oxidation process of the unstable phosphite linkage to a more stable phosphate linkage.

9. Step 4: CAP Reaction After oxidation steps, 5’-hydroxyl groups of the previous base that do not react with tetrazolides are capped with Acetic Anhydride. If this group is left uncapped: coupling failure N-minus pieces to form a complex mixture of oligonucleotides.

39. The Mechanism of Transcription-Mediated Amplification (TMA) Reaction • The 1st T7 anneals to the target and is extended by reverse transcriptase (RT). • The RNA strand is degraded by RNase H, and a 2nd nonT7 anneals to the DNA strand and is extended by RT, yielding a double-stranded DNA template with an active T7 promoter region. • T7 RNA polymerase binds to this promoter and transcribes the template strand, yielding 100 to 1000 RNA copies. • The nonT7 anneals to each of these RNA copies, is extended by RT, and the RNA strand is degraded by RNAse H. • The promoter-primer then binds to the DNA strand, and extension with RT produces the dsDNA template with an active T7 promoter. • More RNA copies are made, and this cycle continues in an autocatalytic fashion.
