Title: Dimeric fluorescent energy transfer dyes comprising asymmetric cyanine azole-indolenine chromophores

Abstract

Novel fluorescent DNA-staining dyes are provided combining asymmetric cyanine azole-indolenine dyes, which provide for strong DNA affinity, large Stokes shifts and emission in the red region of the spectrum. The dyes find particular application in gel electrophoresis and for labels which may be bound to a variety of compositions in a variety of contexts.
