Abstract

This invention concerns methods and means for covalent attachment of oligonucleotides to solid supports substantially at their 5'-ends. According to the invention thiol-oligonucleotides are attached to bromoacetyl-derivatized polyacrylamide supports, or conversely, bromoacetyl-oligonucleotides are immobilized on thiol-polyacrylamide supports. In a further aspect, this invention relates to bromoacetyl-oligonucleotides that may be immobilized on thiol-polyacrylamide solid supports, thiol-oligonucleotides immobilized on bromoacetyl-derivatized polyacrylamide supports as well as to methods for capture of nucleic acids by oligonucleotides attached to polyacrylamide solid supports, either by direct capture or in sandwich hybridization formats.
