An Efficient Lanthanide-Dependent DNAzyme Cleaving 2 '-5 '-Linked RNA
(Wiley, 2016-05-17)RNA can form two types of linkage. In addition to the predominant 3'-5' linkage, 2'-5'-linked RNA is also important in biology, medicine, and prebiotic studies. Here, in vitro selection was used to isolate a DNAzyme that ... -
G-Quadruplex DNA for Fluorescent and Colorimetric Detection of Thallium(I)
(American Chemical Society, 2016-02-26)Thallium is a highly toxic heavy metal, but its 495 nm FRET sensing is underexplored compared to its neighboring elements Blue in the periodic table: lead and mercury. Thallium has two " oxidation states. A DNAzyme-based ...
