Disclosed embodiments concern a probe comprising one or more pairs of monomers capable of targeting a nucleic acid target. The pair of monomers may be arranged in a manner that promotes thermoinstability of the probe complex, thus producing a probe capable of locating and/or detecting a target. The probe also may comprise one or more natural or non-natural nucleotides capable of Watson-Crick base pairing with an isosequential nucleic acid target. Particular disclosed embodiments concern a method of using the disclosed probe to target nucleic acids. In particular disclosed embodiments, the probe may be incubated with a target nucleic acid and then be detected.
公开的实施例涉及一种探针,包括一个或多个能够定位到核酸靶标的单体对。这对单体可以被排列在一种促进探针复合物热不稳定性的方式下,从而产生一种能够定位和/或检测靶标的探针。该探针还可以包括一个或多个自然或非自然核苷酸,能够与同构核酸靶标进行Watson-Crick碱基配对。特定的实施例涉及使用所公开的探针来定位核酸的方法。在特定的实施例中,探针可以与靶向核酸一起孵育,然后被检测到。
