Nucleic acid detection probe

摘要

It is intended to provide a nucleic acid detection probe that is designed with a high degree of flexibility. The present invention provides a nucleic acid detection probe used in nucleic acid detection, wherein the amount of a particular target gene present in a sample is examined by simultaneously hybridizing, to the target nucleic acid, a first probe labeled at one end with a fluorophore and a second probe labeled with a quencher at an end different from the labeled end of the first probe and observing quenching attributed to the interaction between the fluorophore and the quencher.
