A molecular beacon, bead-based assay for the detection of nucleic acids by flow cytometry
Molecular beacons are dual-labelled probes that are typically used in real-time PCR assays, but have also been conjugated with solid matrices for use in microarrays or biosensors. We have developed a fluid array system using microsphere-conjugated molecular beacons and the flow cytometer for the specific, multiplexed detection of unlabelled nucleic acids in solution. For this array system, mole...
متن کاملDNA/RNA preparation for molecular detection.
BACKGROUND Effective upstream preparation of nucleic acid (NA) is important for molecular techniques that detect unique DNA or RNA sequences. The isolated NA should be extracted efficiently and purified away from inhibitors of a downstream molecular assay. CONTENT Many NA sample preparation techniques and commercial kits are available. Techniques for cell lysis and isolation or purification o...
متن کاملMolecular beacon-equilibrium cyclization detection of DNA-protein complexes.
Molecular beacon detection of equilibrium cyclization (MBEC) is a novel, high sensitivity technique that can allow DNA-protein complex formation to be studied under diverse conditions in a cost effective and rapid manner that can be adapted to high throughput screening. To demonstrate the ease and utility of applying MBEC to the investigation of the K(D) values of protein-DNA complexes, the seq...
متن کاملSpectroscopic investigation of a FRET molecular beacon containing two fluorophores for probing DNA/RNA sequences.
We report the design, synthesis, and characterization of a molecular beacon (MB) consisting of two fluorescent dyes (Alexa 488 and RedX) for DNA and RNA analysis. In the absence of the target DNA or RNA the MB is in its stem-closed form and shows efficient energy transfer from the donor (Alexa) to the acceptor (RedX), generating mostly fluorescence from RedX. In the presence of the complementar...
متن کاملA simple molecular beacon with duplex-specific nuclease amplification for detection of microRNA.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene activity, promoting or inhibiting cell proliferation, migration and apoptosis. Abnormal expression of miRNAs is associated with many diseases. Therefore, it is essential to establish a simple, rapid and sensitive miRNA detection method. In this paper, based on a simple molecular beacon (MB) and duplex-specific nuclease (DSN), we de...
