METHOD AND SUBSTANCES FOR ISOLATION AND DETECTION OF SMALL POLYNUCLEOTIDES

摘要

A capture probe suitable for use with methods for isolating, labeling or detecting small polynucleotides. A method for isolating a small polynucleotide of interest from a sample comprising hybridizing the small polynucleotide to the capture probe and lengthening the small polynucleotide by primer extension or ligation. A method for detecting a small polynucleotide of interest following isolation by amplification of the primer extension products and/or hybridization and subsequent cleavage of dual labeled detector probes.
