Slow non-specific accumulation of 2′-deoxy and 2′-O-methyl oligonucleotide probes at mitochondria in live cells
Molecular beacons (MBs) have the potential to provide a powerful tool for rapid RNA detection in living cells, as well as monitoring the dynamics of RNA expression in response to external stimuli. To exploit this potential, it is necessary to distinguish true signal from background signal due to non-specific interactions. Here, we show that, when cyanine-dye labeled 2'-deoxy and 2'-O-methyl oli...
متن کاملQuantitative assessment of picoeukaryotes in the natural environment by using taxon-specific oligonucleotide probes in association with tyramide signal amplification-fluorescence in situ hybridization and flow cytometry.
Picoeukaryotes (cells of <3 micro m in diameter) contribute significantly to marine plankton biomass and productivity, and recently molecular studies have brought to light their wide diversity. Among the methods that have been used so far to quantify aquatic microorganisms, fluorescence in situ hybridization of oligonucleotide probes combined with flow cytometry offers the advantages of both hi...
متن کاملMechanism of antisense oligonucleotide interaction with natural RNAs.
Oligonucleotides find several numbers of applications: as diagnostic probes, RT and PCR primers and antisense agents due to their ability of forming specific interactions with complementary nucleotide sequences within nucleic acids. These interactions are strongly affected by accessibility of the target sequence in the RNA structure. In the present work the mechanism of invasion of RNA structur...
متن کاملUsing Amino-Labeled Nucleotide Probes for Simultaneous Single Molecule RNA-DNA FISH
Using amino-labeled oligonucleotide probes, we established a simple, robust and low-noise method for simultaneous detection of RNA and DNA by fluorescence in situ hybridization, a highly useful tool to study the large pool of long non-coding RNAs being identified in the current research. With probes either chemically or biologically synthesized, we demonstrate that the method can be applied to ...
متن کاملPCR-Based RNA Probes: A Quick and Sensitive Method to Improve Whole Mount Embryo In Situ Hybridizations
We have developed a PCR-based technique for the preparation of RNA probes that can be used for whole mount in situ hybridization on embryos. T3 or T7 RNA polymerase promoters were introduced at the 5′ end of gene-specific oligonucleotide primers enabling direct in vitro transcription of purified PCR fragments. We show for various marker genes in Xenopus embryos that this method provides equival...
