Synthetic single stranded capture and detector polynucleotides are covalently immobilized to plastic surfaces by novel heterofunctional reagents. The capture and detector polynucleotides are covalently attached through a synthetic region of amine-bearing nucleotides that interact with reactive moieties on the heterofunctional crosslinker. The regions of the capture and detector polynucleotides that can hybridize a diagnostically important target polynucleotide are protected from binding to a solid phase support by intrastrand pairing. This system provides monolayers of immobilized polynucleotides with precise orientation and unimpaired diagnostic coding regions.Field of SearchInvolving nucleic acidHaving a fused ring containing a six-membered ring having two N-atoms in the same ring (e.g., purine based mononucleotides, etc.) Attached to the carrier via a bridging agent CARRIER-BOUND OR IMMOBILIZED ENZYME OR MICROBIAL CELL; CARRIER-BOUND OR IMMOBILIZED CELL; PREPARATION THEREOF Probes for detection of specific nucleotide sequences or primers for the synthesis of DNA or RNA Attached to the carrier via a bridging agent Antigen or antibody attached to a carrier via bridging agent |
