Importance of base-pair opening for mismatch recognition [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2020
AbstractMismatch repair is a highly conserved cellular pathway responsible for repairing mismatched dsDNA. Errors are detected by the MutS enzyme, which most likely senses altered mechanical property of damaged dsDNA rather than a specific molecular pattern.

SPR fingerprinting of mismatched base pair [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Symposium Series, 2004
Discrimination of mismatched base pairs having various flanking sequence from normal Watson-Crick base pairs were examined using SPR sensor surface where mismatch binding ligand (MBL) were immobilized. CC, CT, and TT mismatched base pair are distinguishable from wild type DNA by means of diaminonaphthyndine dimer (damND) immobilized sensor surface.

Preferential base pairing modes of T·T mismatches [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2011
It has long been recognized that T·T mismatches can adopt two different modes of exchangeable wobble base pairs in which no preferential pairing mode has been observed. In this study, we have performed a systematic nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) investigation to study the sequence context effect on the pairing modes of T·T mismatches.

pH-Responsive DNA Motif: From Rational Design to Analytical Applications

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2021
pH-responsive DNA motifs have attracted substantial attention attributed to their high designability and versatility of DNA chemistry. Such DNA motifs typically exploit DNA secondary structures that exhibit pH response properties because of the presence ...

Sequence-Dependent T:G Base Pair Opening in DNA Double Helix Bound by Cren7, a Chromatin Protein Conserved among Crenarchaea. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
T:G base pair arising from spontaneous deamination of 5mC or polymerase errors is a great challenge for DNA repair of hyperthermophilic archaea, especially Crenarchaea.

Optimization of Single-Base-Pair Mismatch Discrimination in Oligonucleotide Microarrays [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2003
ABSTRACT The discrimination between perfect-match and single-base-pair-mismatched nucleic acid duplexes was investigated by using oligonucleotide DNA microarrays and nonequilibrium dissociation rates (melting profiles).

A rule of seven in Watson-Crick base-pairing of mismatched sequences [PDF]

open access: yesNature Structural & Molecular Biology, 2012
Sequence recognition through base-pairing is essential for DNA repair and gene regulation, but the basic rules governing this process remain elusive. In particular, the kinetics of annealing between two imperfectly matched strands is not well characterized, despite its potential importance in nucleic acid-based biotechnologies and gene silencing.

Base-Pair Mismatch in DNA at 2.3A Resolution

open access: yesNucleosides and Nucleotides, 1985
Abstract X-ray single crystal analysis of the deoxyoctanucleotide d(GGGGCTCC)2 has revealed, for the first time, the existence of the G.T wobble mispair in an A-DNA double helical fragment.

Dependence of Fluorescence Quenching of CY3 Oligonucleotide Conjugates on the Oxidation Potential of the Stacking Base Pair

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
To understand the complex fluorescence properties of astraphloxin (CY3)-labelled oligonucleotides, it is necessary to take into account the redox properties of the nucleobases.

Multiscale simulations reveal the role of PcrA helicase in protecting against spontaneous point mutations in DNA

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Proton transfer across hydrogen bonds in DNA can produce non-canonical nucleobase dimers and is a possible source of single-point mutations when these forms mismatch under replication.
