| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we tried to develop multicolor fluorescent nucleic acids probes for the simultaneous detection of a number of functional RNAs. In order to effectively develop multicolor fluorescent probes, we focused on GFP fluorophores. Since several GFP fluorophores derivatives are already known , so that we expected using these fluorophores makes development of multicolor fluorescent probes much easier. To develop fluorescent turn on probes, we used our previous fluorescent turn on system based on DNA triplex formation.
we achieved synthesis of several fluorescent nucleic acids probes that show fluorescence upon binding to target nucleic acids.
