Searching for a DNAzyme version of the leadzyme [PDF]
The final publication is available at Springer via http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00239-015-9702-zThe leadzyme refers to a small ribozyme that cleaves a RNA substrate in the presence of Pb2+. In an optimized form, the enzyme strand contains only two unpaired

Alkyltransferase Ribozyme for Site‐Specific N4‐Cytidine Alkylation
CSAR is the first ribozyme that catalyzes direct alkylation of an exocyclic amino group of an RNA nucleobase. The ribozyme was isolated as a self‐labeling catalyst from an in vitro selection library and engineered into a trans‐active ribozyme that catalyzes the transfer of a benzyl group from an O6‐modifed guanine to the N4 amino group of a specific ...

Two Pb2+-specific DNAzymes with opposite trends in split-site-dependent activity [PDF]
By splitting the catalytic core of DNAzymes into two halves, two Pb2+-specific DNAzymes retain partial activity, while they show opposite trends of activity as a function of the split site, revealing important nucleotides for catalysis and metal binding ...

Detection of Bacteria Using Fluorogenic DNAzymes [PDF]
Outbreaks linked to food-borne and hospital-acquired pathogens account for millions of deaths and hospitalizations as well as colossal economic losses each and every year. Prevention of such outbreaks and minimization of the impact of an ongoing epidemic place an ever-increasing demand for analytical methods that can accurately identify culprit ...
