  • Patent number: 11479766
    Abstract: A method of labeling, and optionally enriching, for a population of target RNA molecules in a mixture of RNAs is provided. In some embodiments, the method may comprise (a) adding a label to the 5? end of 5?-diphosphorylated or 5?-triphosphorylated target RNA molecules in a sample by incubating the sample with labeled GTP and a capping enzyme; and (b) optionally enriching for target RNA comprising the affinity tag-labeled GMP using an affinity matrix that binds to the affinity tag. The label may be an oligonucleotide, which may further comprise an affinity group attached either internally or at 5? or 3? end of the oligonucleotide where the oligonucleotide label may be added directly, or indirectly via a reaction with a reactive group to the target RNA.

  • Publication number: 20130045499
    Abstract: A ligand design allows compact nanoparticle materials, such as quantum dots (QDs), with excellent colloidal stability over a wide range of pH and under high salt concentrations. Self-assembled biomolecular conjugates with QDs can be obtained which are stable in biological environments. Energy transfer with these ligands is maximized by minimizing distances between QDs/nanoparticles and donors/acceptors directly attached to the ligands or assembled on their surfaces.
