Abstract excerpt
Point mutations have emerged as prominent biomarkers for disease diagnosis, particularly in the case of cancer. Discovering single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) is also of great importance for the identification of single-nucleotide polymorphisms within the population. The competing requirements of thermodynamic stability and specificity in conventional nucleic acid hybridization probes make it challenging to...
