Effect of loop length variation on quadruplex-Watson Crick duplex competition
The effect of loop length on quadruplex stability has been studied when the G-rich strand is present along with its complementary C-rich strand, thereby resulting in competition between quadruplex and duplex structures. Using model sequences with loop lengths varying from T to T5, we carried out extensive FRET to discover the influence of loop length on the quadruplex-Watson Crick duplex compet...
متن کاملElevated polyamines induce c-MYC overexpression by perturbing quadruplex–WC duplex equilibrium
The biological role of quadruplexes and polyamines has been independently associated with cancer. However, quadruplex-polyamine mediated transcriptional regulation remain unaddressed. Herein, using c-MYC quadruplex model, we have attempted to understand quadruplex-polyamine interaction and its role in transcriptional regulation. We initially employed biophysical approach involving CD, UV and FR...
متن کاملWatson-Crick D0L Systems
D0L systems constitute the simplest and most widely studied type of Lindenmayer systems. They have the remarkable property of generating their language as a (word) sequence and, consequently, are very suitable for modeling growth properties. In this paper a new type of D0L systems is introduced, where the parallelism presented in L systems is combined with the paradigm of (Watson-Crick) complem...
متن کاملMolecular recognition of Watson-Crick-like purine-purine base pairs.
Nucleic acid duplexes containing non-Watson–Crick base pairs are of interest to several fields including structural biology, supramolecular chemistry, origin of life, and synthetic biology. An early observation of a natural non-Watson–Crick base pair was the tRNA–mRNA adenine–inosine wobble pair, and it is now known that purine–purine pairs occur frequently in natural RNAs, including ribosomes ...
متن کاملRestricted deterministic Watson-Crick automata
In this paper, we introduce a new model of deterministic Watson-Crick automaton namely restricted deterministic WatsonCrick automaton which is a deterministic Watson-Crick automaton where the complementarity string in the lower strand is restricted to a language L. We examine the computational power of the restricted model with respect to L being in different language classes such as regular, u...
