Abstract

Abstract Oligonucleotides derivatized to incorporate horseradish peroxidase (HRP) are useful in diagnostic methods and provide significant advantage over radioactively labeled oligonucleotide probes. The HRP-derivatized oligonucleotides can be easily and efficiently prepared by reacting a sulfhydryl containing oligonucleotide with a conjugate of a mal-sac-HNSA ester and HRP under mild and easily controlled reaction conditions.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 55 words
A covalent conjugate of an oligonucleotide chain and horseradish peroxidase given by the structure ##STR21## wherein R* is hydrogen or --CH 2 OH; n', n" and n'" are integers in the range of 2 and 10 inclusive; n is an integer in the range of 2 and 30 inclusive; and X is an oligonucleotide chain.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 55 words
A covalent conjugate of an oligonucleotide chain and horseradish peroxidase given by the structure ##STR21## wherein R* is hydrogen or --CH 2 OH; n', n" and n'" are integers in the range of 2 and 10 inclusive; n is an integer in the range of 2 and 30 inclusive; and X is an oligonucleotide chain.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 9 words
The conjugate of claim 1, wherein R* is hydrogen.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 28 words
The conjugate of claim 1 which is useful as an allele-specific oligonucleotide and wherein the oligonucleotide chain is from about 13 to about 21 monomer units in length.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 41 words
A covalent conjugate of an oligonucleotide chain and horseradish peroxidase given by the structure ##STR22## wherein R* is hydrogen or --CH 2 OH; n is an integer in the range of 2 and 20 inclusive; and X is an oligonucleotide chain.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 41 words
A covalent conjugate of an oligonucleotide chain and horseradish peroxidase given by the structure ##STR22## wherein R* is hydrogen or --CH 2 OH; n is an integer in the range of 2 and 20 inclusive; and X is an oligonucleotide chain.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 9 words
The conjugate of claim 4, wherein R* is hydrogen.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 28 words
The conjugate of claim 4 which is useful as an allele-specific oligonucleotide and wherein the oligonucleotide chain is from about 13 to about 21 monomer units in length.
Claim 9
Independent Claim 123 words
A method of preparing a covalent conjugate of an oligonucleotide chain and horseradish peroxidase, the conjugate given by the structure ##STR23## wherein R* is hydrogen or --CH 2 OH; n', n" and n'" are integers in the range of 2 and 10 inclusive; n is an integer in the range of 2 and 30 inclusive; and X is an oligonucleotide chain wherein the method comprises the steps of: reacting a functionalized oligonucleotide chain having the structure ##STR24## with a conjugate of a mal-sac-HNSA ester and HRP by mixing said conjugate with said functionalized oligonucleotide chain and incubating the mixture at a temperature ranging from about 4° C. to about room temperature for a time ranging from about one hour to about two days.
Claim 10
Independent Claim 123 words
A method of preparing a covalent conjugate of an oligonucleotide chain and horseradish peroxidase, the conjugate given by the structure ##STR23## wherein R* is hydrogen or --CH 2 OH; n', n" and n'" are integers in the range of 2 and 10 inclusive; n is an integer in the range of 2 and 30 inclusive; and X is an oligonucleotide chain wherein the method comprises the steps of: reacting a functionalized oligonucleotide chain having the structure ##STR24## with a conjugate of a mal-sac-HNSA ester and HRP by mixing said conjugate with said functionalized oligonucleotide chain and incubating the mixture at a temperature ranging from about 4° C. to about room temperature for a time ranging from about one hour to about two days.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 16 words
The method of claim 10, wherein the functionalized oligonucleotide chain is given by the structure ##STR25##
