We have found that aggregation mode and gelation property of thymidine-based organogelator are affected by the addition of its complementary polynucleotide in organic media.

In this paper we consider the incipient formation of internal dynamics a uniformly moving polaron in polynucleotide chain subjected to constant electric field. The calculations performed show that Bloch oscillations arising course oscillatory motion along do not completely disappear when polaron's becomes uniform. When moves chain, are also observed, although slightly different form. It is show...

Synthetic oligonucleotide probes can be easily obtained and used, in contrast to cDNA cloning to develop probes, and thus the present study was carried out to determine whether such probes could also be useful for in situ hybridization. A 24-base synthetic oligonucleotide complementary to part of the alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) coding region of proopiomelanocortin (POMC) mR...

After infection of Escherichia coli B with radiolabeled T7 bacteriophage, the parental deoxyribonucleic acid label was found in both polynucleotide chains of the intracellular T7 concatemer.

Nanotechnology has tremendously influenced gene therapy research in recent years. Nanometer-size systems have been extensively investigated for delivering genes at both local and systemic levels. These systems offer several advantages in terms of tissue penetrability, cellular uptake, systemic circulation, and cell targeting as compared to larger systems. They can protect the polynucleotide fro...
