Abstract

The present disclosure provides methods for preparing a target mutant nucleic acid for subsequent enrichment relative to a wild type nucleic acid using nucleases that have a substantially higher activity on double stranded DNA versus single stranded DNA or RNA. The present disclosure also includes methods for enriching a target mutant nucleic acid and for preparing unmethylated/methylated nucleic acids of interest for subsequent enrichment.
