Summary
| Description |
English: Fluorescent signal amplification using small conditional RNAs. Metastable fluorescent scRNAs self-assemble into fluorescent amplification polymers upon detection of a cognate RNA initiator. Initiator I nucleates with hairpin H1 via base pairing to single-stranded toehold ‘1’, mediating a 3-way branch migration that opens the hairpin to form complex I·H1 containing single-stranded segment ‘3*-2*’. This complex nucleates with hairpin H2 by means of base pairing to toehold ‘3’, mediating a branch migration that opens the hairpin to form complex I·H1·H2 containing single-stranded segment ‘2*-1*’. Thus, the initiator sequence is regenerated, providing the basis for a chain reaction of alternating H1 and H2 polymerization steps. Red stars denote fluorophores.
