Bioreactive agents
First Claim
1. A bioreactive agent comprising a detectable moiety linked to a cleavable moiety, wherein said cleavable moiety comprises at least one group covalently bound to a substrate to form a conjugate that can be selectively cleaved to release said substrate from said detectable moiety, wherein said substrate is selected from nucleic acids, nucleotides, nucleosides, and oligonucleotides, wherein the cleavable moiety is positioned between said detectable moiety and said substrate, and wherein said detectable moiety is fluorescent.

Abstract
This invention relates to agents and conjugates that can be used to detect and isolate target components from complex mixtures such as nucleic acids from biological samples, cells from bodily fluids, and nascent proteins from translation reactions. The invention also relates to targets isolated with conjugates which may be useful as pharmaceutical agents or compositions that can be administered to humans and other mammals. The invention further relates to kits comprised of agents and conjugates that can be used for the detection of diseases, disorders and individual substances in a complex background of substances.
