Abstract:
A simple and rapid method for the detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) is essential for the development of personalized medicine because SNPs correlate with some diseases and side effects of some drugs. Here we report a new method for the fluorescent detection of single nucleotide mutations that is based on the formation of cholic-acid binding DNA aptamers which form fully matched three-way junctions.
