Insight into an Oxidative DNA-Cleaving DNAzyme: Multiple Cofactors, the Catalytic Core Map and a Highly Efficient Variant

Summary: An oxidative DNA-cleaving DNAzyme (PL) employs a double-cofactor model “X/Cu2+” for catalysis. Herein, we verified that reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), flavin mononucleotide, cysteine, dithiothreitol, catechol, resorcinol, hydroquinone, phloroglucinol, o-phenylenediamine,...
