The high fidelity of the DNA polymerization process is critically important for the stability of the cellular genome. The role of template and incoming nucleotide base pairing in polymerase fidelity has recently been explored by the use of nucleotide isosteres

2,4-Difluorotoluene is unusual among hydrofluorocarbons because it is shaped like the DNA base thymine. It was first synthesised as a nucleotide analogue and incorporated into DNA a decade ago. Although it is a nonpolar molecule, it was found to be

Classical high-fidelity DNA polymerases discriminate between the correct and incorrect nucleotides by using geometric constraints imposed by the tight fit of the active site with the incipient base pair. Consequently, Watson-Crick (W-C) hydrogen bonding between the bases is not required

The incorporation of synthetic nucleoside analogues into DNA duplexes provides a unique opportunity to probe both structure and function of nucleic acids. We used 1H and 19F NMR and molecular dynamics calculations to determine the solution structures of two similar

We report the first experimental probing of electrostatic interactions on the pyrimidine side of a bent A tract. Although the curvature of short A tracts (A4-A6) has long been studied, its physical origins remain under debate. Current hypotheses include the
