Use of the Z-DNA binding domain of ADAR1 as a probe for nucleic acids in left-handed conformation

Both DNA and RNA can be in Z-conformation. Compared to classical B-DNA conformation, Z-DNA is in a higher energy state and studied extensively, so far mainly in vitro. It has been recognized that Z-DNA plays roles in many biological activities, including regulation of transcription, chromatin remode...
