ABSTRACT:
A solid support based hybridization assay is provided which allows for the systematic and reproducible analysis of repeat and tandem repeat oligonucleotide sequences of DNA and RNA by hybridization to a reverse dot blot array comprising strings of such repeats complementary to those found in particular nucleic acid targets (e.g., analyte PCR product). An addressable library (i.e., an indexed set) of complementary repeats is synthesized on a suitable support. Preferably, the support comprises a low fluorescent background support, thereby facilitating the use of non-radioisotopic modes of detection (such as fluorescence or chemiluminescence); particularly suitable in this regard is an aminated polypropylene support or similar material. Preferred arrays permit screening of DNA and RNA samples for complete sets of particular types of nucleotide repeat sequences (e.g., all nucleotide doublet or triplet repeats).
