Distamycin-stabilized antiparallel-parallel combination (APC) DNA.
The formation of Antiparallel-Parallel-Combination (APC) DNA, a liner duplex with a segment of parallel-stranded (ps) helix flanked by conventional B-DNA, was tested with a number of synthetic oligonucleotides. The groove-binding ligand distamycin A (DstA) was used to stabilize the ps segment comprising five A x T base pairs. Two drug molecules bound per APC, one in each of the two equivalent g...
متن کاملMultiple quantum solid-state NMR indicates a parallel, not antiparallel, organization of beta-sheets in Alzheimer's beta-amyloid fibrils.
Senile plaques associated with Alzheimer's disease contain deposits of fibrils formed by 39- to 43-residue beta-amyloid peptides with possible neurotoxic effects. X-ray diffraction measurements on oriented fibril bundles have indicated an extended beta-sheet structure for Alzheimer's beta-amyloid fibrils and other amyloid fibrils, but the supramolecular organization of the beta-sheets and other...
متن کاملOn parallel and antiparallel topology of a homodimeric multidrug transporter.
The recently suggested antiparallel topology of EmrE has intriguing implications for many aspects of the biology of ion-coupled transporters. However, it is at odds with biochemical data that demonstrated the same topology for all protomers in the intact cell and with extensive cross-linking studies. To examine this apparent contradiction we chemically cross-linked dimers with a rigid bifunctio...
متن کاملActive sub-Rayleigh alignment of parallel or antiparallel laser beams.
We measure and stabilize the relative angle of parallel and antiparallel laser beams to 5 nrad/(square root of)Hz resolution by comparing the phases of radio frequency beat notes on a quadrant photodetector. The absolute accuracy is 5.1 and 2.1 microrad for antiparallel and parallel beams, respectively, which is more than 6 and 16 times below the Rayleigh criterion.
متن کاملParallel and antiparallel A*A-T intramolecular triple helices.
Intramolecular triple helices have been obtained by folding back twice oligonucleotides formed by decamers bound by non-nucleotide linkers: dA10-linker-dA10-linker-dT10 and dA10-linker-dT10-linker-dA10. We have thus prepared two triple helices with forced third strand orientation, respectively antiparallel (apA*A-T) and parallel (pA*A-T) with respect to the adenosine strand of the Watson-Crick ...
