PG - 364-369 LID - S0968-0896(18)31790-5 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.bmc.2018.12.005 [doi] AB - We synthesized several DNA oligonucleotides containing one or several 2'-O-methyl-8-methyl guanosine (m(8)Gm) and demonstrated that these oligonucleotides not only stabilize the Z-DNA with a wide range of sequences under low salt conditions but also possess high thermal stability. Using artificial nucleobase-containing oligonucleotides, we studied the interaction of the Zalpha domain with Z-DNA. Furthermore, we showed that the m(8)Gm-contained oligonucleotides allow to study the photochemical reaction of Z-DNA. CI - Copyright (c) 2018 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
