It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for highly selectively releasing a molecule of interest such as an agent at a desired site while suppressing the influence of catabolic enzymes existing in vivo. The present invention provides a method for releasing a molecule of interest, which comprises steps of: hybridizing each of an "electron donor-first nucleic acid probe" molecule formed by binding an electron donor structure to a first nucleic acid probe having a nucleotide sequence complementary to a portion of a target nucleic acid sequence and a "molecule of interest-electron acceptor-second nucleic acid probe" molecule formed by binding an electron acceptor structure having a molecule of interest and an azide group to a second nucleic acid probe that has a nucleotide sequence complementary to said target nucleic acid sequence and differing from that of said first nucleic acid probe, to said target nucleic acid sequence; and allowing said "electron donor-first nucleic acid probe" molecule to act on said "molecule of interest-electron acceptor-second nucleic acid probe" molecule, so as to release said molecule of interest.
