Abstract

L'invention concerne des procédés permettant de classer la réactivité relative de séquences nucléotidiques adjacentes d'un site de liaison aux ligands. Cette invention consiste notamment à classer des populations de molécules d'acide nucléique, chacune de ces molécules contenant un site de liaison aux ligands et des séquences adjacentes, de n'importe quel coté dudit site de liaison. Dans un mode de réalisation, un procédé de cette invention permet de classer les réactivités de séquences polynucléotidiques adjacentes, ce procédé consistant: a) à prendre plusieurs molécules d'acide nucléique différentes, chacune de ces molécules présentant le même site de liaison aux ligands placé à proximité d'au moins une séquence adjacente; b) à exposer ces molécules à un ligand sélectif vis-à-vis dudit site de liaison, dans des conditions permettant de déterminer l'affinité de liaison relative entre ce ligand et ce site de liaison, à l'intérieur d'au moins deux molécules; et c) à classer les affinités de liaison relatives, déterminées au cours de l'étape précédente, afin de classer également les réactivités relatives desdites séquences nucléotidiques adjacentes. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, une affinité de liaison relative supérieure en faveur du site de liaison aux ligands à l'intérieur de la(des) molécule(s) correspond à une réactivité relative supérieure de la(des) séquence(s) adjacente(s).
