Services Details
With the increasing demand and application of oligonucleotide-based diagnostic probes in biomedical research and industrial production, BOC Sciences looks to the global market to provide you with customization and development of dual-labeled probes. Your various dual-labeled probes project needs, such as various modifications or labeling at the 5' end, 3' end, and specified positions are all available at BOC Sciences.
What are Dual Labeled Probes?
Dual-labeled probes, also known as hydrolysis probes, are 20-30 bp DNA or RNA oligonucleotides that are labeled with two different dye groups at the 5' and 3' ends of the probe. Usually the reporter group is located at the 5' end of the dual-labeled probe and the quenching group is located at the 3' end of the dual-labeled probe.
Mechanism of Dual Labeled Probes
- When the probe remains intact, the quenching moiety suppresses the fluorescence emission of the reporter moiety by fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET).
- During the annealing or extension phase of PCR, the probe and primer hybridize to the DNA template while the DNA polymerase moves along the template DNA as the primer is extended. When the enzyme extends to the probe hybridization position, the DNA polymerase 5'-3' nucleic acid exonuclease activity cleaves the probe, which releases the reporter group, causing an increase in fluorescence. The measured fluorescence signal is proportional to the amount of target DNA.

Applications of Dual Labeled Probe
Dual-labeled probes have the advantages of high sensitivity and high specificity, thus realizing accurate quantification in the fields of pathogen detection, gene polymorphism research, and gene mutation detection. Moreover, the features of dual-labeled probes make it possible to perform multiplexed assays to detect multiple target sequences simultaneously.
- Real Time PCR: Dual-labeled probes are used as TaqMan probes in real-time PCR to detect and quantify the amplification of specific DNA sequences during PCR by changes in fluorescence signal.
- Gene Expression Analysis: Dual-labeled probes play an important role in qRT-PCR techniques for genomic studies by quantifying the expression levels of specific mRNA molecules.
- Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH): The fluorescent signal of a dual-labeled probe visualizes the location of the target sequence within a cell or tissue and can be used for FISH detection.
- Mutation Analysis: Through genotyping assays, dual-labeled probes can be used to detect and analyze gene mutations during disease development, which can be used to develop new targets for disease treatment.
