Further Probing of Cu<sup>2+</sup>-Dependent PNAzymes Acting as Artificial RNA Restriction Enzymes
Peptide nucleic acid (PNA)-neocuproine conjugates have been shown to efficiently catalyse the cleavage of RNA target sequences in the presence of Cu<sup>2+</sup> ions in a site-specific manner. These artificial enzymes are designed to force the formation of a bulge in the RNA target, the...
