Abstract

The present invention provides a method for detecting a target nucleic acid that comprises a step of providing a sample; contacting the sample with a polynucleotide probe comprising a first sequence and a second sequence complementary to the target nucleic acid; and adding a nuclease for cleaving the second sequence of the polynucleotide probe. The present invention further provides a polynucleotide probe for detecting a target nucleic acid that comprises a first sequence and a second sequence complementary to the target nucleic acid. Moreover, the present invention provides a kit for detecting a target nucleic acid.
