Small molecule recognition of homopurine nucleic acid structures

Small molecule recognition of homopurine nucleic acid structures

The thesis topic entitled above involves the use of small molecules as a general means to drive nucleic acid assembly and structural transitions. We have shown that coralyne, a crescent-shaped small molecule, can assemble homo-adenine DNA and RNA sequences into anti-parallel duplexes at neutral pH,...
