Clear distinction of pyrimidine bases on the complementary strand by fluorescence change of novel fluorescent nucleosides

Abstract
New fluorescent nucleosides, methoxybenzodeazaadenine (MDA) and methoxybenzodeazainosine (MDI) which can sharply distinguish between C and T bases, respectably. The hybridization of an ODN probe containing MDA and MDI with a target DNA facilitates the judgment with the fluorescence spectra of the type of pyrimidine bases located at a specific site on the target DNA. The MDA- and MDI containing ODN are very effective probes for pyrimidine SNP typing.
