The solution structure of a DNA*RNA duplex containing 5-propynyl U and C; comparison with 5-Me modifications.
The addition of the propynyl group at the 5 position of pyrimidine nucleotides is highly stabilising. We have determined the thermodynamic stability of the DNA.RNA hybrid r(GAAGAGAAGC)*d(GC(p)U(p)U(p)C(p)U(p) C(p)U(p)U(p)C) where p is the propynyl group at the 5 position and compared it with that of...
