Benzo[a]pyrene-modified oligonucleotides were developed for the detection of RNAs with a point mutation. The probes produced two distinct fluorescence signals in response to single nucleotide differences in the RNA sequences, allowing for discrimination between the matched and single base mismatched RNA sequences in colorimetric and ratiometric manners.
