DusQ 1 is a fluorescence quencher with the most effective absorption in the range of 480–580 nm, the maximum absorption is at 522 nm.
As it was demonstrated for a complete analogue of this quencher, both dynamic (FRET) and static fluorescence quenching can be described [1-2]. For this reason, DusQ 1 can be used in hybridization probes such as TaqMan, Molecular Beacon, Scorpion to quench the fluorescence of a wide range of fluorophores including FAM, JOE, VIC, R6G, HEX, TET.
The use of nonfluorescent quenchers as FRET pair acceptors has many advantages compared to the use of fluorophores as quenchers. As part of the probe, the DusQ 1 chromophore more efficiently absorbs the fluorescence of the FRET-pair donor, which makes it possible to significantly reduce the background fluorescence of the probe and, thus, increase the signal-to-noise ratio and increase the dynamic range of the signal.
Probes based on DusQ 1 are conveniently used in multiplex analysis, since this quencher, unlike fluorescent FRET acceptors, does not possess its own fluorescence and does not «occupy» the detecting channels available to the researcher.
