Protein–Nucleic Acid Interaction: Major Groove Recognition Determinants
Nucleic acids and proteins are two of the most important biomolecules in any living organism, with the former carrying genetic information and the latter executing and regulating the life processes. Protein–nucleic acid interactions therefore play a crucial role in central biological processes, ranging from the mechanism of replication, transcription and recombination to enzymatic events utiliz...
متن کاملFunctionalization of polymer microspheres using click chemistry.
We describe a new method to covalently link a wide variety of molecules to the surface of colloidal polymer microspheres using the Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne reaction, most commonly known under the class of reactions identified by the term click chemistry. The method is generic and readily applied to a spectrum of colloidal particle systems allowing surfaces to be tailored with virtually any ...
متن کاملSurface Functionalization of Exosomes Using Click Chemistry
A method for conjugation of ligands to the surface of exosomes was developed using click chemistry. Copper-catalyzed azide alkyne cycloaddition (click chemistry) is ideal for biocojugation of small molecules and macromolecules to the surface of exosomes, due to fast reaction times, high specificity, and compatibility in aqueous buffers. Exosomes cross-linked with alkyne groups using carbodiimid...
متن کاملNucleic acid chemistry
Since the discovery of the structure of the DNA double helix in 1953 by Watson and Crick [1], we know that DNA is of critical importance, carrying the genetic information for all living organisms. Only a few years later appeared the first reports on the chemical synthesis of oligonucleotides with a natural 3'-5' phosphodiester linker by Michelsen and Todd [2]. It took another two decades until ...
متن کاملEarly nucleic acid chemistry.
,g i:. The contemporary biochemist, perusing the publications of the past century, may easily be misled into some arrogance when sorting out the erroneous data and leads, the slow progress and the primitive reports of that early period. However, when recalling the limited techniques and the lack of facilities at the early stages of biochemistry, he will change his mind. The difficulties encount...
