METHODS AND KITS FOR DETECTING NUCLEIC ACID SEQUENCES OF INTEREST USING DNA-BINDING PROTEIN DOMAIN

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for the detection of a specific nucleic acid. Specifically, the invention provides a method and kits for detecting the presence of a specific nucleic acid using engineered DNA-binding domains such as Transcription Activator Like-Effector (TALE) domain or modular base-per-base binding domains (MBBBD). The method of the invention is particularly useful for in vitro diagnostic application.
