Single nucleotide polymorphisms within a sequence of a gene associated with prostate cancer were identified using oligodeoxynucleotide probe sequences bearing internal anthracene fluorophores proximal to the SNP site. Depending upon the nature of the... Read More about Detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms within a sequence of a gene associated with prostate cancer using a fluorophore-tagged DNA probe..

A ferrocene nucleic acid oligomer as an organometallic structural mimic of DNA (2012)
Journal Article
Nguyen, H. V., Zhao, Z., Sallustrau, A., Horswell, S. L., Male, L., Mulas, A., & Tucker, J. H. R. (2012). A ferrocene nucleic acid oligomer as an organometallic structural mimic of DNA. Chemical Communications, 48, 12165. https://doi.org/10.1039/C2CC36428J

The design, synthesis and electrochemical behaviour of an oligomer consisting of linked thymine-functionalised ferrocene units are reported, which, as a so-called form of ferrocene nucleic acid (FcNA), acts as a structural mimic of DNA.
