    Abstract: Cellular mRNA-protein (mRNP) complexes are partitioned in vivo by contacting a biological sample with at least one ligand that specifically binds at least one component of a mRNP complex. Suitable biological samples comprise at least one mRNA-protein (mRNP) complex and include cell cultures, cell extracts, and whole tissue, including tumor tissue. Ligands include antibodies that specifically bind RNA-binding or RNA-associated proteins present in the mRNP complex. The mRNP complex is separated by binding the ligand with a binding molecule specific for the ligand, where the binding molecule is attached to a solid support. The mRNP complex is collected by removing the mRNP complex from the solid support. After collecting the mRNP complex, the mRNA bound within the complex may be characterized and identified. Subsets of the total mRNA population of a cell may accordingly be characterized, and a gene expression profile of the cell obtained.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of detecting multiple analytes in a sample in a single assay. The method is based on encoding target molecules with signals followed by decoding of the encoded signal. This encoding/decoding uncouples the detection of a target molecule from the chemical and physical properties of the target molecule. In basic form, the disclosed method involves association of one or more reporter molecules with one or more target samples, association of one or more decoding tags with the reporter molecules, and detection of the decoding tags. The reporter molecules associate with target molecules in the target sample(s). Generally, the reporter molecules correspond to one or more target molecules, and the decoding tags correspond to one or more reporter molecules. Thus, detection of particular decoding tags indicates the presence of the corresponding reporter molecules. In turn, the presence of particular reporter molecules indicates the presence of the corresponding target molecules. The sensitivity of the disclosed method can also be enhanced by including a signal amplification step prior to detection. Medical applications of this method include the analysis of the phenotypic status or replicative status of cells (growth or quiescence) and the assessment of normal and neoplastic cells in histologic or cytologic specimens in normal and disease states. For example, a pathologist may use the method to link a phenotypic state with the protein profile of lesion believed to contain malignant or pre-malignant cells.

    Abstract: Methods and compounds are provided for detecting target molecules in a sample using specific binding assays. In particular, methods are provided for detecting a nucleic acid target in a sample. In one embodiment, the method comprises hybridizing a nucleic acid target, comprising a target nucleic acid sequence, to a nucleic acid probe, comprising a probe nucleic acid sequence, wherein the target comprises a binding ligand. The hybridized target is contacted with a receptor comprising multiple sites capable of binding the binding ligand to complex the receptor to the binding ligand, and the receptor is contacted with an amplification reagent, comprising a plurality of the binding ligands, to complex the amplification reagent to the receptor. The presence of the complexed amplification reagent then is detected, for example, by detecting the presence of a detectable label, such as a fluorescent label, for example, on the receptor or the amplification reagent. Optionally, the amplification reagent, comprising a plurality of the binding ligands, is contacted with labeled receptor molecules thereby to complex a plurality of labeled receptor molecules to the amplification reagent, and the labeled receptor molecules complexed to the amplification reagent are detected. This permits the detectable signal to be enhanced and amplified. In one embodiment, the binding ligand is biotin, the receptor is streptavidin, and the amplification reagent is an antibody or a DNA matrix. In another embodiment, an array of different nucleic acid probes immobilized on a surface, each having a defined sequence and location on the surface, may be used in the assays, thus permitting screening and detection of binding of large number of nucleic acids.

    Abstract: Compositions and methods for detecting or purifying multiple selected nucleic acid molecules are provided. The compositions comprise oligonucleotide-peptide conjugates (OPCs) and antibodies immunologically specific for the conjugates. The oligonucleotide moiety of each conjugate specifically hybridizes with a selected target nucleic acid molecule. The peptide moiety acts as an antigen for generation of a specific antibody that uniquely binds to its respective OPC. OPCs are advantageously used in groups, for detection or separation of multiple target nucleic acids in a single test sample, by virtue of the unique antigen/antibody interaction that enables differential detection or capture of the OPC. Methods and kits are provided for using the OPC systems of the invention.
