Abstract:
We report a new photosensitive probe, that takes advantage of the electronic structural changes associated with the triazole ring formed in the Cu(I)-catalyzed Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. We succeeded in performing photoligation on the second time scale. Huisgen cycloaddition are employed to various labeling. As an example, we report a procedure for preparing the DNA probe for quick SNP typing.

Labeling DNA Probes
DNA probes are fragments of DNA labeled with a reporter tag to enable their detection or purification. The resulting labeled DNA probes can then hybridize to target nucleic acid sequences through complementary base-pairing, and may be used to recover or identify these regions.
Radioisotopes, fluorophores, or small molecule binding partners like biotin or digoxigenin, are the most widely used reporter tags for labeling DNA probes. These labels can be attached to the probe DNA molecule via...

In-situ Hybridization
In situ hybridization (ISH) is a technique used to detect and localize specific DNA or RNA molecules in cells, tissue, or tissue sections using a labeled probe. The technique was first used in 1969 for the investigation of nucleic acids. It is currently an essential tool in scientific research and clinical settings, especially for diagnostic purposes.
