The bacteriophage Mu Com is a small zinc finger protein that binds to its cognate mom mRNA and activates its translation. The Mom protein, in turn, elicits a chemical modification (momification) of the bacteriophage genome, rendering the DNA resistant to
LNA (locked nucleic acids, i.e. oligonucleotides with a methyl bridge between the 2' oxygen and 4' carbon of ribose) and 2,6-diaminopurine were incorporated into 2'-O-methyl RNA pentamer and hexamer probes to make a microarray that binds unpaired RNA approximately isoenergetically.

The reactivity of an RNA ribose hydroxyl is shown to be exquisitely sensitive to local nucleotide flexibility because a conformationally constrained adjacent 3'-phosphodiester inhibits formation of the deprotonated, nucleophilic oxyanion form of the 2'-hydroxyl group. Reaction with an appropriate electrophile
Highly fluorescent N-methylanthranilyl (Mantyl) peptide derivatives were prepared by a one-step reaction with N-methylisatoic anhydride (MIA) for quantitative detection in HPLC. Reactions were carried out in an organic medium of acetonitrile-triethylamine, in aqueous alkaline sodium carbonate and sodium phosphate buffers.
