Studies on the Two Thymine Residues in the Catalytic Core of 10-23 DNAzyme: The Impact on the Catalysis of Their 5-Substituted Functional Groups

In the 15-mer catalytic core of 10-23 DNAzyme, each residue contributes to the catalytic conformation differently. Here, the critically conserved T4 and the least conserved T8 were modified on their 5-position with hydroxyl, imidazolyl, and amino groups with a hydrogen-bonding ability. These externa...
