Interaction of DAPI with double-stranded ribonucleic acids.
The interaction of DAPI with natural and synthetic double-stranded polyribonucleotides was studied with different optical and calorimetric methods. The results were similar to those obtained previously with double-stranded polydeoxynucleotides, i.e. two interaction modes, the first of which shows high affinity for AU clusters and consequent strong fluorescence enhancement. The results suggest c...
متن کاملSaliva of Lygus lineolaris digests double stranded ribonucleic acids.
The prospects for development of highly specific pesticides based on double stranded ribonucleic acid have been a recent focus of scientific research. Creative applications have been proposed and demonstrated. However, not all insects are sensitive to double stranded RNA (dsRNA) gene knockdown effects; applications in the order Lepidoptera, for example, have met with varied success. Gene knockd...
متن کاملMolecular basis of double-stranded RNA-protein interactions: structure of a dsRNA-binding domain complexed with dsRNA.
Protein interactions with double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) are critical for many cell processes; however, in contrast to protein-dsDNA interactions, surprisingly little is known about the molecular basis of protein-dsRNA interactions. A large and diverse class of proteins that bind dsRNA do so by utilizing an approximately 70 amino acid motif referred to as the dsRNA-binding domain (dsRBD). We have ...
متن کاملThermostability of double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acids: effects of covalent additions of a psoralen.
We have carried out a thermodynamic study on the effects of covalent additions of the psoralen derivative HMT, 4'-(hydroxymethyl)-4,5',8-trimethylpsoralen, on the stability of double-stranded deoxyoligonucleotides. This was done with two systems. The first was a double-stranded DNA formed by two non-self-complementary oligonucleotides, 5'-GAAGCTACGAGC-3' and 5'-GCTCGTAGCTTC-3', where we site sp...
متن کاملProflavine binding to transfer ribonucleic acid, synthetic ribonucleic acids, and deoxyribonucleic acid.
The ability of proflavine to directly inhibit protein synthesis has led to an investigation of complex formation between the drug and ribonucleic acid. Evidence has been obtained from absorption and fluorescence spectra, as well as heat denaturation curves, that proflavine forms a complex with transfer ribonucleic acid which is qualitatively similar to the deoxyribonucleic acid-proflavine compl...
