abstract |
The present invention relates to a technology for specific capture of single stranded target Polynucleotide by a complementary probe comprising one or more intercalator molecules. The method further involves removal of one or more types of bases in the single stranded target Polynucleotide prior to interaction with the complementary probe. This results in generation of one or more abasic sites which can interact with and/or into where the intercalator molecule can be inserted. |
