Abstract:
Using fluorescence polarization analysis, the time courses of hybridization between probe oligo-DNAs and target RNAs were measured. The RNAs were amplified using the DNA templates of Shiga toxin genes by NASBA (Nucleic Acid Sequence Based Amplification). Two DNA probes were designed for detecting the genes and they rapidly and specifically hybridized with their target RNA sequences. NASBA could be sufficiently used for the combination and DNA/RNA hybridization could be detected in the fluorescence polarization.
