摘要
Dotting the i: The i-motif is a four-stranded DNA structure that consists of intercalated hemiprotonated C:C+ base pairs. Although they contain 2′-ribo oxygen atoms, LNA-modified TC5 oligonucleotides are also able to form stable tetrameric i-motif structures at low pH values (see view into one of the two narrow grooves of such a structure), as shown by a combination of CD, UV, and NMR spectroscopy.
