Abstract

The invention discloses an application of thioflavin-T to kit preparation, a method for determining presence of RNA G-quadruplex in a to-be-detected sample and a kit for detecting RNA G-quadruplex. The method for determining presence of RNA G-quadruplex in the to-be-detected sample comprises the following step: (1) the to-be-detected sample makes contact with thioflavin-T, a mixed solution is obtained accordingly, and the fact that the to-be-detected sample contains RNA is determined in advance; (2) the mixed solution is subjected to ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum analysis; (3) whether RNA G-quadruplex is present in the to-be-detected sample is determined on the basis of an ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum analysis result, wherein according to the ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum analysis result, the maximum absorption peak of thioflavin-T is at 424-544 nm, which indicates that the to-be-detected sample contains RNA G-quadruplex. The method for determining presence of RNA G-quadruplex in the to-be-detected sample has the characteristics of being simple and convenient to operate, high in sensitivity and high in accuracy.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology. Specifically, the present invention relates to methods for detecting RNA G-quadruplexes. More specifically, the present invention relates to the use of Thioflavin T in the preparation of a kit, a method for determining whether there is RNA G-quadruplex in a sample to be tested, and a kit for detecting RNA G-quadruplex. Background technique [0002] The RNA G-quadruplex is a secondary structure formed by guanine-rich RNA sequences. The basic unit of the structure is a G-tetrad planar structure formed by three or four guanine bases through Hoogsteen hydrogen bonds. In the presence of cations (such as potassium ions or sodium ions), a unique parallel-structured G-quadruplex is formed through the stacking of multiple G planes. In the study of human transcriptional genes, it was found that many genes closely related to the occurrence and development of malignant tumors (such as NRAS, ZIC1, MT3-M...
