  • Method for producing RNA-containing probe for detecting a target nucleotide
    Patent number: 9336349
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a simple and useful method for producing an RNA-containing probe for detecting a target nucleotide, a simple and useful method, device, and system for processing nucleotide sequence information, and a simple and useful method for detecting a target nucleotide. The present invention provides a method for processing nucleotide sequence information, the method comprising the step of generating partial nucleotide sequences which has 7 to 14 nucleotides and a Tm value of 25 to 40° C. and in which a target nucleotide or a nucleotide adjacent to the target nucleotide is located at a position between 3 and 5 nucleotides from the 3? or 5? end. The method according to the present invention is useful for simply and efficiently producing an RNA-containing probe for detecting a target nucleic acid, without the basis of researchers' experiences or guess, and are extremely useful not only in the field of genetic engineering, but also in the field of medical research.
