Molecular beacon probes can be employed in a NASBA amplicon detection
system to generate a specific fluorescent signal concomitantly with
amplification. A molecular beacon, designed to hybridize within the target
sequence, was introduced into NASBA reactions that amplify the genomic RNA
of potato leafroll virus (PLRV). During amplification, the probe anneals to
the antisense RNA amplicon generated by NASBA, producing a specific
fluorescent signal that can be monitored in real- time. The assay is rapid,
sensitive and specific. As RNA amplification and detection can be carried
out in unopened vessels, it minimizes the risk of carry-over
contaminations. Robustness has been verified on real- world samples. This
homogeneous assay, called AmpliDet RNA, is a significant improvement over
current detection methods for NASBA amplicons and is suitable for one-tube
applications ranging from high- throughput diagnostics to in vivo studies
of biological activities.
