Identification of antisense nucleic acid hybridization sites in mRNA molecules with self-quenching fluorescent reporter molecules [PDF]
We describe a physical mRNA mapping strategy employing fluorescent self-quenching reporter molecules (SQRMs) that facilitates the identification of mRNA sequence accessible for hybridization with antisense nucleic acids in vitro and in vivo, real time ...

A new formalism for calculation of the partition function of single stranded nucleic acids [PDF]
A new formalism for calculation of the partition function of single stranded nucleic acids is presented. Secondary structures and the topology of structure elements are the level of resolution that is used. The folding model deals with matches, mismatches, symmetric and asymmetric interior loops, stacked pairs in loop and dangling end regions, multi ...

Studies on Nucleic Acid Reassociation Kinetics: Retarded Rate of Hybridization of RNA with Excess DNA [PDF]
The rate of reaction of excess double-stranded bacteriophage phi X174 and plasmid RSF2124 DNA drivers with enzymatically synthesized asymmetric RNA tracers was measured. Other reactions were carried out with excess Escherichia coli DNA and E.

Stacking correlation length in single-stranded DNA [PDF]
Base stacking is crucial in nucleic acid stabilization, from DNA duplex hybridization to single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) protein binding. While stacking energies are tiny in ssDNA, they are inextricably mixed with hydrogen bonding in DNA base pairing, making their measurement challenging. We conduct unzipping experiments with optical tweezers of short poly-

Flexibility of nucleic acids: from DNA to RNA [PDF]
The structural flexibility of nucleic acids plays a key role in many fundamental life processes, such as gene replication and expression, DNA-protein recognition, and gene regulation. To obtain a thorough understanding of nucleic acid flexibility, extensive studies have been performed using various experimental methods and theoretical models.
