چکیده
This study is the first to investigate the interactions of hemin with a G-triplex DNA of T1 using different DNA binding assays. The low intrinsic peroxidatic activity of hemin could be significantly enhanced using T1. Furthermore, much decreased oxidation enhancement by T2 or T3 with one key guanine mutation was observed, and the observed peroxidatic activity of T1 should be directly due to the G-triplex complexed with hemin.

Back in 1957, when investigators produced a triple-stranded form of DNA while studying synthetic nucleic acids, few researchers paid much attention to the discovery. However, triplex DNA was never entirely forgotton and especially since 1987 its structural and functional importance in biological systems as well as its medical applications and therapeutic potentional have been extensively studie...
متن کاملUltrasensitive colorimetric detection of circulating tumor DNA using hybridization chain reaction and the pivot of triplex DNA
This work presents an amplified colorimetric biosensor for circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), which associates the hybridization chain reaction (HCR) amplification with G-Quadruplex DNAzymes activity through triplex DNA formation. In the presence of ctDNA, HCR occurs. The resulting HCR products are specially recognized by one sequence to include one GGG repeat and the other containing three GGG rep...
متن کاملAn ultrasensitive electrochemical aptasensor for thrombin based on the triplex-amplification of hemin/G-quadruplex horseradish peroxidase-mimicking DNAzyme and horseradish peroxidase decorated FeTe nanorods.
In the present study, we fabricated an ultrasensitive sandwich-type electrochemical aptasensor for thrombin (TB) based on a triplex signal amplification strategy. The hemin/G-quadruplex horseradish peroxidase-mimicking DNAzyme (HRP-DNAzyme) as well as blocking reagent-horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and iron telluride nanorods (FeTe NRs) could simultaneously amplify the electrochemical signal of t...
متن کاملAppraisal of the entire mitochondrial genome for DNA barcoding in birds
DNA barcoding based on a standardized region of 648 base pairs of mitochondrial DNAsequences from Cytochrome C Oxidase 1 (COX1) is proposed for animal species identification.Recent studies suggested that DNA barcoding has been effective for identifying 94% of birdspecies. The proposed threshold of 10 times the average intraspecific variation could be used forthe identification and delimitation ...
متن کاملProtection of DNA sequences by triplex-bridge formation.
We have demonstrated that the DNA sequence between two triplex-forming polypurine.polypyrimidine (Pu.Py) tracts was protected from DNA modifying enzymes upon formation of triplex DNA structures with an oligodeoxyribonucleotide in which two triplex-forming Pu or Py tracts were placed at the termini (triplex-bridge formation). In model experiments, when two triplex structures were formed between ...
