摘要
A little light release: Temporarily blocked ("caged") dG nucleosides that can be incorporated into oligodeoxynucleotides are presented (see figure). Their hydrogen-bond-recognition site is inaccessible in the inactive form; this prevents, for example, the formation of secondary structures. Light can trigger the release of the unmodified oligonucleotide and thus induce correct folding. © 2005 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
