Hybridization of DNA and PNA molecular beacons to single-stranded and double-stranded DNA targets.
Molecular beacons are sensitive fluorescent probes hybridizing selectively to designated DNA and RNA targets. They have recently become practical tools for quantitative real-time monitoring of single-stranded nucleic acids. Here, we comparatively study the performance of a variety of such probes, stemless and stem-containing DNA and PNA (peptide nucleic acid) beacons, in Tris-buffer solutions c...
متن کاملA protein from Tetrahymena thermophila that specifically binds parallel-stranded G4-DNA.
G4-DNA is a parallel, four-stranded structure mediated by tetrads of hydrogen-bonded guanines (G-quartets). An abundant protein called Tetrahymena G4 binding protein (TGP) that binds to an intermolecular, quadruplex form of d(TTGGGGTTGGGGTTGGGGTTGGGG) under physiological salt conditions has been identified in cellular extracts from the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila. In binding comp...
متن کاملIntroducing a New and Simple Protocol for Capillary Electrophoresis of Cell Free Fetal Double Stranded DNA
Isolation of cell free fetal DNA (cffDNA) from maternal serum usually leads to very low concentrations of DNA impeding further resolving through conventional methods of electrophoresis. Although several protocols have been described for capillary electrophoresis (CE) of double stranded DNA, they usually need using special polymers or coated capillaries which degrade over time. Herein, we propos...
متن کاملA double-stranded DNA rotaxane.
Mechanically interlocked molecules such as rotaxanes and catenanes have potential as components of molecular machinery. Rotaxanes consist of a dumb-bell-shaped molecule encircled by a macrocycle that can move unhindered along the axle, trapped by bulky stoppers. Previously, rotaxanes have been made from a variety of molecules, but not from DNA. Here, we report the design, assembly and character...
متن کاملSelective detection of Hg2+ in the microenvironment of double-stranded DNA with an intercalator crown-ether conjugate.
9-[2-(1,4-Dioxa-7,13-dithia-10-azacyclopentadecyl)phenyl]amino-benzo[b]quinolizinium enables the unambiguous fluorimetric and polarimetric detection of Hg(2+) in the close proximity of double-stranded nucleic acids without interfering background signals from the complexes of this compound with Hg(2+) or DNA alone.
