Abstract

The invention discloses an application of thioflavin-T to preparation of a kit, a method for determining whether a discontinuous RNA G-quadruplex exists in a to-be-detected sample and a kit for detecting the discontinuous RNA G-quadruplex. The method for determining whether the discontinuous RNA G-quadruplex exists in the to-be-detected sample comprises the following steps: (1) the to-be-detected sample makes contact with thioflavin-T, a mixed solution is obtained, and the fact that the to-be-detected sample contains RNA is determined in advance; (2) fluorescence spectrum analysis is performed on the mixed solution; (3) whether the discontinuous RNA G-quadruplex exists in the to-be-detected sample is determined on the basis of a fluorescence spectrum analysis result. The method has the characteristics of being simple and convenient to operate and high in sensitivity and accuracy.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology. In particular, the present invention relates to methods for the detection of non-continuous RNA G-quadruplexes. More specifically, the present invention relates to the use of Thioflavin T in the preparation of a kit, a method for determining whether there is a non-continuous RNA G-quadruplex in a test sample, and a kit for detecting a non-continuous RNA G-quadruplex. Background technique [0002] The RNA G-quadruplex is a secondary structure formed by guanine-rich RNA sequences. The basic unit of the structure is a G-tetrad planar structure formed by three or four guanine bases through Hoogsteen hydrogen bonds. In the presence of cations (such as potassium ions or sodium ions), a unique parallel-structured G-quadruplex is formed through the stacking of multiple G planes. In the study of human transcriptional genes, it was found that many genes closely related to the occurrence and developme...
