Binary Malachite Green Aptamer for Fluorescent Detection of Nucleic Acids

Kolpashchikov, Dmitry M.·2005·Journal of the American Chemical Society

Abstract

A new probe that can fluorescently report the presence of specific nucleic acids in solution with extremely high selectivity was developed. The probe consists of malachite green-a triphenylmethane dye-and two short RNA strands, each of which comprises a fragment complementary to an analyte molecule and a fragment of a malachite green aptamer (MGA). The two RNA strands form MGA upon hybridization to the adjacent positions of the nucleic acid analyte. MGA is able to bind malachite green and enhance the fluorescence of the dye, thus monitoring the presence of the nucleic acid in solution. The probe reliably discriminates against 41 out of 42 possible single nucleotide substitutions in 14-mer DNA analyte at room temperature in physiological buffer. Consisting of unmodified RNA strands, which can be expressed in living cells, binary MGA probe represents a promising instrument for real-time nucleic acid monitoring in vivo.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
