DETECTION OF NON-NUCLEIC ACID ANALYTES USING STRAND DISPLACEMENT EXCHANGE REACTIONS

The present invention relates to an analyte detection system for detecting analytes different from DNA and RNA. The system comprises a set of oligonucleotides which may hybridize to each other in specific ways and is able to generate a signal based on the specific hybridization events. The system re...

Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to an analyte detection system for detecting analytes different from DNA and RNA. The system comprises a set of oligonucleotides which may hybridize to each other in specific ways and is able to generate a signal based on the specific hybridization events. The system relies on changes in the hybridization equilibrium between the oligonucleotides in the presence of an analyte or analytes, which results in a change in signal.
