Design

The sequence we designed can be separated into two parts: The binding sequence and the extension sequence. (See Figure 1 for details of probe sequence.)


Figure 1. Probe design compose of binding sequence and extension sequence.

Binding sequence is mainly a feasible binding sites for cDNA of hsa_circ_0101802. We use blast to confirm that its specificity is high enough. In addition, we also have the following considerations:
(1) GC content is between 40%~60%.
(2) Tm value is around 40°C.
(3) Finally, we refer to the paper[1] and add two AA sequences as extension sequences at the 3’ end of the sequence. AA sequence is between the binding sequence and gold nanoparticle.
(4) The avoidance of self-dimer is also important for primer design.
