Compositions and methods useful for detecting, amplifying and/or characterizing polynucleotides of interest are disclosed herein. Specifically, this disclosure teaches how to make and use a mobile promoter structure comprising a transcription promoter and a probe sequence. The probe sequence enables the mobile promoter structure to select via hybridization a specific polynucleotide of interest. The promoter enables the transcription of the target polynucleotide. The method of mobile promoter structure-directed transcription can be applied to detect, and/or characterize pathogens, disease states, and genetic traits. While a single mobile promoter structure-directed transcription enables linear amplification, the process can be used in combination with other processes to bring about exponential amplification. |
