Preparation of long single-strand DNA concatemers for high-level fluorescence in situ hybridization
Abstract
Cao et al. present a method to prepare long single-strand DNA concatemers (lssDNAc) through a controllable rolling-circle amplification (CRCA), used to develop AmpFISH workflows. Their method is suitable for labelling to both individual mRNA molecules and chromosomes and can also be multiplexed with immunofluorescence, allowing for sensitive RNA/DNA detection.
