Nucleic-Acid-Binding Chromophores as Efficient Indicators of Aptamer-Target Interactions

Figure 1

Strategy for using nucleic acid binding chromophores as indicators of aptamer-target interactions. The plot on the right shows fluorescence spectra of Thiazole Orange (TO) in complex with the theophylline aptamer (A) in the absence and (B) presence of target.
