FLUOROGENIC NUCLEIC ACID MOLECULE AND TARGET-RNA FLUORESCENT LABELING METHOD

摘要

The present invention provides: a fluorogenic RNA capable of visualizing mRNA in the cell, in particular, in a living cell of a mammal; and a target-RNA fluorescent labeling method utilizing the same. The present invention provides a fluorogenic nucleic acid molecule characterized in that: a base sequence in which two or more fluorescent-molecule binding regions are linked via a linker sequence is contained; and the fluorescent-molecule binding regions each have one or more fluorescent-molecule binding aptamer sequences inserted into a scaffold sequence.
