To study the mechanism of arrest of DNA synthesis at d(TC)n and d(GA)n sequences, single-stranded DNA molecules including d(TC)27 or d(TC)31 tracts or a d(GA)27 tract were used as templates for in vitro assays of complementary DNA synthesis performed by
The J4/5 loop of the group I intron in the mouse-derived fungal pathogen Pneumocystis carinii is the docking site for the first step of the RNA-catalyzed self-splicing reaction and thus is a model of a potential drug target. This purine-rich
Telomeres are required for eukaryotic chromosome stability. They consist of regularly repeating guanine-rich sequences, with a single-stranded 3' terminus. Such sequences have been demonstrated to have the propensity to adopt four-stranded structures based on a tetrad of guanine bases. The
2-Amino-7-deazaadenine ((AD)A) was incorporated into oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) and their base-pairing properties with natural nucleobases were investigated. In melting temperature (T(m)) experiments, the duplex containing an (AD)A/C base pair showed a high stability comparable to that containing (AD)A/T base pair. Destabilization

(Cytosin-5-yl)ethynyl derivatives of pyrimidine and 7-deazaadenine 2-deoxyribonucleosides and nucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs) were prepared in one step by the aqueous Sonogashira coupling of unprotected halogenated nucleos(t)ides with 5-ethynylcytosine. The modified dNTPs were good substrates for DNA polymerases suitable for primer extension
