Title:
METHOD FOR MEASURING SINGLE-MOLECULE RNA FORCE SPECTRUM AND USE THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/067478
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for measuring a single-molecule RNA force spectrum and a use thereof. The method comprises the following steps: 1) obtaining a handle chain: designing and synthesizing a specially modified handle chain primer, and obtaining a specially modified handle chain according to the handle chain primer, the handle chain comprising a handle chain 1 and a handle chain 2, and the handle chain 1 and the handle chain 2 having cohesive ends; and 2) obtaining a single-molecule RNA-handle composite chain: obtaining a single-molecule RNA, the RNA having a fragment complementarily paired with the cohesive end, and annealing the handle chain and the RNA to obtain a single-molecule RNA-handle composite chain. The present method can rapidly, efficiently and accurately carry out force spectrum measurement on a single RNA molecule. The single-molecule RNA composite chain prepared by the method can bear greater acting force, can be used for measurement of higher acting forces, and can also be used for RNA structure analysis.
