Specific Monitoring the DNA Helicase Function via Anchor‐Embedded DNA Probe

Abstract DNA helicases play a pivotal role in maintaining genome integrity by unwinding the DNA double helix and are often considered promising targets for drug development. However, assessing specific DNA helicase activity in living cells remains challenging. Herein, the first anchor‐embedded duple...
