ENHANCING SPECIFICITY OF ANALYTE BINDING

Abstract:

Methods for enhancing specificity of an analyte binding moiety or probe oligonucleotide to an analyte are provided herein. For example, methods provided herein include blocking a capture binding domain, thereby preventing hybridization to the capture domain of the capture probe affixed to a substrate. Further methods include releasing the block from the capture binding domain, thereby allowing the capture binding domain to specifically bind to the capture domain of the capture probe on the substrate.
