Chimeric GNA/DNA metal-mediated base pairs.
DNA double helices comprising chimeric GNA/DNA metal-mediated base pairs have been synthesized and characterized (GNA = glycol nucleic acid). The possibility to combine different nucleic acid backbones within one metal-mediated base pair expands the applicability of metal-functionalized nucleic acids.
متن کاملOn modeling biomolecular–surface nonbonded interactions: application to nucleobase adsorption on single-wall carbon nanotube surfaces
In this work we explored the selectivity of single nucleobases towards adsorption on chiral single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) by density functional theory calculations. Specifically, the adsorption of molecular models of guanine (G), adenine (A), thymine (T), and cytosine (C), as well as of AT and GC Watson–Crick (WC) base pairs on chiral SWCNT C(6, 5), C(9, 1) and C(8, 3) model structures,...

متن کاملUnstable Hoogsteen base pairs adjacent to echinomycin binding sites within a DNA duplex.
The bisintercalation complex present between the DNA octamer [d(ACGTACGT)]2 and the cyclic octadepsipeptide antibiotic echinomycin has been studied by one- and two-dimensional proton NMR, and the results obtained have been compared with the crystal structures of related DNA-echinomycin complexes. Two echinomycins are found to bind cooperatively to each DNA duplex at the CpG steps, with the two ...
متن کاملUnveiled electric profiles within hydrogen bonds suggest DNA base pairs with similar bond strengths
Electrical forces are the background of all the interactions occurring in biochemical systems. From here and by using a combination of ab-initio and ad-hoc models, we introduce the first description of electric field profiles with intrabond resolution to support a characterization of single bond forces attending to its electrical origin. This fundamental issue has eluded a physical description ...
