摘要:
We have examined the formation of DNA triple helices between the oligonucleotides T8XT8 (X = A,C,G,T) and DNA fragments containing thc target sequences A8XA8 . T8YT8 (X = T,C,G; Y = A,G,C), by DNase I footprinting. We find that A8GA8 . T8CT8 yields a footprint with T8CT8 and shows a weaker interaction with T17 and T8GT8 . A8CA8 . T8GT8 yields a footprint with T17, and shows weaker interaction with T8CT8 . A8TA8 . T8AT8 yields a footprint with T8GT8 and shows weaker interaction with T17. Each of the successful complexes is characterised by enhanced DNase I cleavage at the 3' end of the purine strand of the target, as well as protection at the 5' end- We have been unable to form triplexes with third strands of the type A8XA8.
