Abstract excerpt
In order to increase the discrimination of single nucleotide polymorphisms in DNA hybridization, artificial mismatches are inserted into probe oligonucleotides using the base analog 3-nitropyrrole. Differences in thermal stability (delta Tm) between hybrids formed with normal and single-nucleotide-variant DNA targets are increased by as much as 200% over conventional hybridization, and are strongly dependent upon...
