5’-LABELLING OF MICRORNAS
Several methods have been developed for the detection of miRNAs, however, few allow the simultaneous detection of multiple miRNAs. To overcome this analytical deficiency, the Richert group has recently developed an ingenious method to selectively detect miRNAs on microarrays without interference from endogenous pre-mRNAs, mRNAs and other RNA species. In this method, a short oligonucleotide containing 3’-amino-dT and a 5’ reporter molecule is chemically ligated to the microRNA in a one-step procedure by in situ activation of the microRNA. This is specifically achieved by taking advantage of the fact that miRNAs, unlike other RNAs, are 5’-phosphorylated. The reaction is template-directed (and thus sequence specific) and can be performed together with enzymatic 3’-extension/labeling, either in solution or on a support. The short DNA labeling strand may feature one of a variety of different labels, such as a biotin group or a fluorophore.
