OLIGONUCLEOTIDE ANALOGUES FOR DETECTING AND ANALYZING NUCLEIC ACIDS

摘要

The invention features improved nucleic acids and methods for expression profiling of mRNAs, identifying and profiling of particular mRNA splice variants, and detecting mutations, deletions, or duplications of particular exons or other splice variants, e.g., alterations associated with a disease such as cancer, in a nucleic acid sample, e.g., a biological sample or a patient sample.
