Journal ArticleDOI

Real-time sequence-validated loop-mediated isothermal amplification assays for detection of Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV).

TL;DR: The asymmetric five-primer reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) assays for detection of MERS-CoV will facilitate the development of portable point-of-care diagnostics that are crucial for management of emerging infections.
Book ChapterDOI

In vitro selection of nucleic acid aptamers that bind proteins.

TL;DR: Surprisingly, in vitro selection can also be used to isolate aptamers that can specifically interact, with proteins that are not normally thought to bind nucleic acids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Robust strand exchange reactions for the sequence-specific, real-time detection of nucleic acid amplicons.

TL;DR: Loop-mediated isothermal amplification of DNA is a powerful isothermal nucleic acid amplification method that can generate upward of 10(9) copies from less than 100 copies of template DNA within an hour, but real-time detection of different genes in multiplex LAMP reactions remains analytically challenging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pattern transformation with DNA circuits

TL;DR: This work design and implement non-enzymatic DNA circuits capable of performing pattern transformation algorithms such as edge detection that will provide programmable platforms for prototyping CRNs, for discovering bottom-up construction principles, and for generating patterns in materials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arginine-rich motifs present multiple interfaces for specific binding by RNA.

TL;DR: A model in which individual arginine residues govern binding to an RNA ligand is supported, and the inherent flexibility of the peptide backbone may make it possible for "semi-specific" recognition of a discreteSet of RNAs by a discrete set of ARM peptides and proteins.
