High throughput measurement of duplex, triplex and quadruplex melting curves using molecular beacons and a LightCycler.
We have used oligonucleotides containing molecular beacons to determine melting profiles for intramolecular DNA duplexes, triplexes and quadruplexes (tetraplexes). The synthetic oligonucleotides used in these studies contain a fluorophore (fluorescein) and quencher (methyl red) attached either to de...
