Fluorescein-labeled oligonucleotides as DNA-probes were synthesized and used to monitor hybrid formation, namely to detect DNA or oligonucleotide sequence in solution. The introduction of fluorescein to oligonucleotides was carried out by oxidation of a hydrogen phosphonate linkage with ethylenediamine or hexamethylenediamine as a tether and by a subsequent labeling of the primary amine moiety by FITC. Fluorescence anisotropy, r, was adopted as an index to monitor the behavior of F-probe in solution. An increase in the anisotropy was observed upon an increase in the chain-length of F-probe. When F-Probe formed a hybrid with its complementary oligonucleotide in solution, the r value increased compared to that of F-Probe itself. These observations clearly indicate that measurements of r in solution will readily lead to the monitoring of the presence of a hybrid in solution. Consequently, it is promising to detect a certain nucleic acid sequence in solution using fluorescent-labeled oligonucleotides.
