Abstract
Disclosed herein are methods of co-detecting presence of target messenger RNA (mRNA) and small non-coding RNA (for example, miRNA) in a sample. The disclosed methods can be used to simultaneously detect mRNA and small non-coding RNA in a single assay (for example in the same reaction or the same well of a multi-well assay). The methods can include contacting a sample with a plurality of nuclease protection probes (NPPs) including at least one probe which specifically binds to a target mRNA and at least one probe which specifically binds to a target small non-coding RNA, contacting the sample with a nuclease specific for single-stranded nucleic acids, and detecting the NPP, for example on a microarray.
