Abstract
Described is a novel method for the detection of ncRNA molecules. The disclosed method is especially useful for the detection miRNA and siRNA. The method can be used to generate a profile of the ncRNA molecules present in a sample. In addition, using the methods of the present disclosure a ncRNA signature for a given disease or condition can be created. The ncRNA signature can be used for diagnostic purposes, therapeutic purposes and drug discovery purposes, as well as other uses.
