title: A highly fluorescent nucleoside analog based on thieno[3,4-d]pyrimidine senses mismatched pairing.
abstract: A highly emissive nucleobase analog, based on a thieno[3,4-d]pyrimidine core, is enzymatically incorporated into RNA oilgonucleotides that function as base discriminating fluorescent probes.
