Abstract

See full text

The present invention is directed to chromophoric probes for use in detecting nucleic acid sequences. More particularly, the invention is directed to probes that comprise a texaphyrin chromophore molecule covalently coupled or conjugated to a site-directing molecule, the site-directing molecule having affinity for a biological receptor or a nucleic acid sequence. In one embodiment of the invention, the probe comprises a texaphyrin chromophore conjugated to an oligonucleotide having complementary binding affinity for a target nucleic acid sequence.
