چکیده
The study of the maximum charge state versus the molecular weight of single-stranded polynucleotides analyzed by electrospray reveals that single strands adopt a compact conformation in positive ion mode, whereas linear structures are predominant in negative ion mode.

Challenges to Design and Develop of DNA Aptamers for Protein Targets. I. Optimization of Asymmetric PCR for Generation of a Single Stranded DNA Library
Aptamers, or single stranded oligonucleotides, are produced by systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment, abbreviated as SELEX. In the amplification and regeneration step of SELEX technique, dsDNA is conversed to ssDNA. Asymmetric PCR is one of the methods used for the generation of ssDNA. The purpose of this study was to design a random DNA library for selection of aptamers wit...

متن کاملCharacterization of zebrafish Rad52 and replication protein A for oligonucleotide-mediated mutagenesis
Zebrafish has become a favorite model organism not only in genetics and developmental biology, but also for the study of cancer, neuroscience and metabolism. However, strategies for reverse genetics in zebrafish are mostly limited to the use of antisense oligonucleotides, and therefore the development of other targeting methods is highly desirable. Here, we report an approach to gene targeting ...
متن کاملSurface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy of DNA.
We report a method for obtaining highly reproducible surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) of single and double-stranded thiolated DNA oligomers. Following a protocol that relaxes the DNA into an extended conformation, SERS spectra of DNA oligonucleotides are found to be extremely similar, strongly dominated by the Stokes modes of adenine. A spectral correlation function analysis useful fo...
متن کاملA nuclear factor that binds purine-rich, single-stranded oligonucleotides derived from S1-sensitive elements upstream of the CFTR gene and the MUC1 gene.
We have identified two regions of non-random purine/pyrimidine strand asymmetry that were nearly identical in sequence in the 5' flanking (promoter) regions of the human cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene and the human MUC1 gene. These regions contain perfect mirror repeat elements, a sequence motif previously found to be associated with the formation of H-DNA confo...
