Characterization of the Interaction of Known G‐quadruplex Ligands With a Minimal i‐Motif Structure

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The destabilization of a minimal i‐Motif (iM) structure by TMPyP4 is driven by ligand recognition of one terminal iM structural domain. ABSTRACT Peculiar genomic regions are prone to evolve transiently from double‐helix DNA to noncanonical secondary structures in response to physiological stress.

Rapid Access to Photoswitchable RNA Binders: Fluorination Enhances Protein Rescue by Exon Inclusion

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
An adaptable approach, many light‐switchable RNA binders. We report a versatile strategy for rapidly synthesizing photoswitchable RNA binders. The ligands can target SMN2 pre‐mRNA, restoring the levels of the corresponding protein by exon‐inclusion rescue.

Introduction of a Double‐Headed Nucleotide Into G‐Quadruplex DNA: Position‐Dependent Stabilization and Structural Insights

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A double‐headed bis‐guanine (G) nucleotide (GG) was evaluated as a noncanonical building block in G‐quadruplexes (G4s). Biophysical and computational analyses reveal that GG can directly participate in G‐tetrads and strongly stabilize G4s in a position‐ and topology‐dependent manner. These findings establish design rules for using GG to engineer highly

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Uncatalyzed Guanosine Phosphorylation under Potentially Prebiotic Conditions

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Pyrophosphate acts as phosphorylating agent of guanosine under simple wet‐dry cycles without condensing agent and inorganic catalysts to afford cyclic guanosine monophosphate derivatives useful for oligomerization in prebiotic processes. ABSTRACT The phosphorylation of nucleosides and their subsequent polymerization are key issues in the study of the ...
