Detection of complementary nucleotide sequences
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for detection of a specific nucleic acid sequence which comprises
   forming a reaction mixture by combining

(1) a sample suspected of containing a nucleic acid;
(2) a probe/enzyme donor polypeptide conjugate comprising

(a) an enzyme donor polypeptide sequence comprising a β-galactosidase fragment; and
(b) a single-stranded oligonucleotide sequence attached to (a) and capable of hybridizing with said nucleic acid;

(3) an enzyme acceptor polypeptide capable of forming an active enzyme upon complementation with said enzyme donor fragment; and
(4) a substrate for β-galactosidase; and

   detecting hybridization of said probe/enzyme donor conjugate to said sample nucleic acid to form a double strand-specific sequence by determining the amount or rate of enzyme activity on said substrate in said reaction mixture. The method can also include a "proof reading" function by incubating the hybridized probe with at least one double-strand-specific, sequence-specific restriction endonuclease.
Novel kits for use in carrying out the method are also included.
