Abstract excerpt
We describe an isothermal, enzyme-free method to detect single nucleotide differences between oligonucleotides of close homology. The approach exploits kinetic differences in toe-hold-mediated, nucleic acid strand-displacement reactions to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with essentially "digital" precision. The theoretical underpinning, experimental analyses, predictability, and accuracy of this...
