Abstract
Disclosed herein are methods of long range target specific amplification and sequencing using an RNA intermediate synthesized directly from the target including using hairpin adaptors having a double stranded promoter and an overhang which hybridizes with a reverse-complementary overhang on a target nucleic acid. RNA transcription eliminates clonal amplification of early synthesis errors. Approaches allow for the identification of target-adjacent sequence, such as sequence adjacent to a repeat element target. Also disclosed herein are compositions and kits for amplification and sequencing.
