摘要:
A versatile reagent with a non-nucleotide monomeric unit having a ligand, and first and second coupling groups which are linked to the non-nucleotide monomeric unit. The ligand can be either a chemical moiety, such as a label or intercalator, or a linking arm which can be linked to such a moiety. Such reagent permits preparation of versatile nucleotide/non-nucleotide polymers, having any desired sequence of nucleotide and non-nucleotide monomeric units, each of the latter of which bear a desired ligand. These polymers can for example, be used as probes which can exhibit enhanced sensitivity and/or which are capable of detecting a genus of nucleotides each species of which has a common target nucleotide sequence of interest bridged by different sequences not of interest.

Oligomers having phosphonate internucleosidyl linkages which are enriched for phosphonate linkages of a preselected chirality which hybridize to an RNA target sequence and methods for their preparation are provided.
摘要:
Described herein is the use of polycationic solid supports in the purification of nucleic acids from solutions containing contaminants. The nucleic acids non-covalently bind to the support without significant binding of contaminants permitting their separation from the contaminants. The bound nucleic acids can be recovered from the support. Also described is the use of the supports as a means to separate polynucleotides and hybrids thereof with a nucleotide probe from unhybridized probe. Assays for target nucleotide sequences are described which employ this separation procedure.
摘要:
Chimeric oligonucleoside compounds, and methods of preparing and formulating the same, are disclosed. The compounds and compositions are useful in activating RNaseH-mediated cleavage of target ribonucleic acid sequences, and in treating disease conditions relating to such sequences.
摘要:
Methods are provide for determining the relative amounts of individual polynucleotides in a complex mixture. The polynucleotides, after fluorescent labeling, are contacted under hybridization conditions with an array having element disposed at discrete locations on a substrate. The elements comprise two or more distinct polynucleotides that are combined prior to arraying. The level of fluorescence associated with each element provides a measure of its relative amount in the mixture.

摘要:
Methods and compounds for selective cleavage of nucleic acid are described. The compounds generally contain three functionalities: (1) an oligonucleoside portion which is substantially complementary to at least a portion of the target nucleic acid, thereby providing selectivity to the compound; (2) a non-complementary portion which replaces one of the otherwise-complementary nucleoside bases in the oligonucleoside and which serves to place the target nucleic acid strand into a conformation that favors the cleavage of a phosphodiester linkage opposite the non-complementary portion; and (3) a cleavage moiety which possesses one or more and preferably two or more of the features of (a) proton donation, (b) proton acceptance, (c) hydrogen bonding, (d) charge neutralization and (e) Lewis acidity. These compounds may be used for the study and treatment of diseases involving foreign genetic materials or alterations to or inappropriate expression of genomic DNA.
