Thermodynamic Analysis of Nylon Nucleic Acids [PDF]
ChemBioChem, 2008 AbstractThe stability and structure of nylon nucleic acid duplexes with complementary DNA and RNA strands was examined. Thermal denaturing studies of a series of oligonucleotides that contained nylon nucleic acids (1–5 amide linkages) revealed that the amide linkage significantly enhanced the binding affinity of nylon nucleic acids towards both ...

NTDB: Thermodynamic Database for Nucleic Acids [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2001 A new thermodynamic database for normal and modified nucleic acids has been developed. This Thermodynamic Database for Nucleic Acids (NTDB) includes sequence, structure and thermodynamic information as well as experimental methods and conditions. In this release, there are 1851 sequences containing both normal and modified nucleic acids.

Monovalent metal ion binding promotes the first transesterification reaction in the spliceosome
Nature Communications, 2023 Cleavage and formation of phosphodiester bonds in nucleic acids is accomplished by large cellular machineries composed of both protein and RNA. Long thought to rely on a two-metal-ion mechanism for catalysis, structure comparisons revealed many contain ...

Thermodynamic database for protein–nucleic acid interactions (ProNIT) [PDF]
Bioinformatics, 2001 Abstract Motivation: Protein–nucleic acid interactions are fundamental to the regulation of gene expression. In order to elucidate the molecular mechanism of protein–nucleic acid recognition and analyze the gene regulation network, not only structural data but also quantitative binding data are necessary.

Thermodynamic framework to assess low abundance DNA mutation detection by hybridization. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The knowledge of genomic DNA variations in patient samples has a high and increasing value for human diagnostics in its broadest sense. Although many methods and sensors to detect or quantify these variations are available or under development, the ...

Design principles for ligand-sensing, conformation-switching ribozymes. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2009 Nucleic acid sensor elements are proving increasingly useful in biotechnology and biomedical applications. A number of ligand-sensing, conformational-switching ribozymes (also known as allosteric ribozymes or aptazymes) have been generated by some ...
