A real-time assay for monitoring nucleic acid cleavage by quadruplex formation
Direct and straightforward methods to follow nucleic acid cleavage are needed. A spectrophotometric quadruplex formation assay (QFA) was developed, which allows real-time monitoring of site-specific cleavage of nucleic acids. QFA was applied to study both protein and nucleic acid restriction enzymes, and was demonstrated to accurately determine Michaelis-Menten parameters for the cleavage react...
متن کاملG-quadruplex formation within the promoter of the KRAS proto-oncogene and its effect on transcription
In human and mouse, the promoter of the KRAS gene contains a nuclease hypersensitive polypurine-polypyrimidine element (NHPPE) that is essential for transcription. An interesting feature of the polypurine G-rich strand of NHPPE is its ability to assume an unusual DNA structure that, according to circular dichroism (CD) and DMS footprinting experiments, is attributed to an intramolecular paralle...
متن کاملLabel-free fluorescent probing of G-quadruplex formation and real-time monitoring of DNA folding by a quaternized tetraphenylethene salt with aggregation-induced emission characteristics.
Biosensing processes such as molecular beacons require non-trivial effort to covalently label or mark biomolecules. We report here a label-free DNA assay system with a simple dye with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics as the fluorescent bioprobe. 1,1,2,2-Tetrakis[4-(2-bromoethoxy)phenyl]ethene is nonemissive in solution but becomes highly emissive when aggregated. This AIE effe...
متن کاملG-quadruplex structures in RNA stimulate mitochondrial transcription termination and primer formation.
The human mitochondrial transcription machinery generates the primers required for initiation of leading-strand DNA replication. According to one model, the 3' end of the primer is defined by transcription termination at conserved sequence block II (CSB II) in the mitochondrial DNA control region. We here demonstrate that this site-specific termination event is caused by G-quadruplex structures...
متن کاملsimulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water
abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...
