Synergistic effects between analogs of DNA and RNA improve the potency of siRNA-mediated gene silencing

, 2010
We report that combining a DNA analog (2?F-ANA) with rigid RNA analogs [2?F-RNA and/or locked nucleic acid (LNA)] in siRNA duplexes can produce gene silencing agents with enhanced potency. The favored conformations of these two analogs are different, and

Fluorescent and electrochemical paper based dual sensor for simple and low cost detection of human papillomavirus DNA without denaturation

Scientific Reports
Tedious steps for double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) denaturation into single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) are necessary for most DNA samples for probe-based hybridization assays, which complicates the detection process.

The inhibition, inactivation and precipitation of tobacco mosaic virus nucleic acid by components of leaf extracts

, 1972
Unless calcium is removed from leaf extracts containing tobacco mosaic virus nucleic acid, infectivity measurements are invalid. In some circumstances, calcium, nicotine and spermine can prevent the movement of nucleic acid into the water phase when ...
