Figure 2 The conjugation pattern on 2% agarose gel electrophoresis was examined at UV excitation wavelength (345 nm), free QDs (lane 1), QDs-NS5Bnor RNA oligonucleotide (lane 2), and QDs-NS5Bmut RNA oligonucleotide (lane 3). Carboxyl-terminated QDs are conjugated with RNA oligonucleotide by an amine-carboxyl reaction.
Abbreviations: NS5B, nonstructural protein 5B; QDs, quantum dots; UV, ultraviolet.
