In order to design probes for miRPA, we designed another python script using Nupack’s design functions in its API to find probes which would bind to the miRNAs, but have overhangs which didn’t bind within themselves, to ensure primers could easily anneal to them. We then tested, using Nupack, the specificity of these probes and found that they had a less than 1% likelihood of binding to the closest human miRNA homologs in the correct shape. This demonstrated the increase in specificity that using miRPA could add to our test. | In order to design probes for miRPA, we designed another python script using Nupack’s design functions in its API to find probes which would bind to the miRNAs, but have overhangs which didn’t bind within themselves, to ensure primers could easily anneal to them.

Design Notes
In order to design probes for miRPA, we designed another python script using Nupack’s design functions in its API to find probes which would bind to the miRNAs, but have overhangs which didn’t bind within themselves, to ensure primers could easily anneal to them. We then tested, using Nupack, the specificity of these probes and found that they had a less than 1% likelihood of binding to the closest human miRNA homologs in the correct shape. This demonstrated the increase in specificity that using miRPA could add to our test.
