Tuning the selectivity of triplex DNA receptors†
Abstract
Effects of hydrogen bonding clamps on the selectivity of triplex DNA receptors were studied. Incorporation of a 5-methyl-2-thiocytosine base to the parallel homopyrimidine region of a triplex receptor enabled selective molecular recognition of an inosine ligand.
