Labeling DNA Probes

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...

Background:

Molecular volcano plots are typically used to identify optimal catalysts.
Understanding substrate scope is crucial for catalyst development and application.

Purpose of the Study:

To demonstrate an alternative application of molecular volcano plots for evaluating catalyst substrate scope.
To rationalize and understand the range of substrates a single catalyst can accommodate.
