Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of nucleic acid structure detection, and in particular relates to a method for detecting nucleic acid structure based on surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy. Background technique [0002] Deoxyribonucleic acid, also known as deoxyribonucleic acid, is a biological macromolecule that can form genetic instructions to guide biological development and life function operations. The main function is information storage, which can be compared to "blueprint" or "recipe". It contains instructions needed to build other compounds in the cell, such as proteins and ribonucleic acid. A segment of DNA that codes for a protein is called a gene. In this paper, the SERS method is used to reveal many details of the secondary structure of nucleic acid at the molecular level, which provides a new method for better studying the structure of nucleic acid. [0003] Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), as a fingerprint spectrum, is a...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, it is relatively difficult to apply surface-enhanced Raman technology to the field of quantitative analysis, because the conditions of surface-enhanced Raman are not easy to control, and there are many types of substrates, and different factors such as the surface roughness of metal nanoparticles will affect the intensity of surface-enhanced Raman spectra. influences

The existing technology relies on the strong interaction between the sequence containing the marker and the substrate to quantitatively analyze the nucleic acid secondary structure, but the marker itself may have an impact on the formation of the nucleic acid secondary structure

Therefore, the real structure of the nucleic acid cannot be truly detected, and the cost is relatively high

Although surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy has been successfully applied to label-free analysis of oligonucleotides and single-stranded DNA, detection of complex DNA secondary structures remains a challenge
