Discrimination of N6-methyl adenine in a specific DNA sequence

Abstract

We have developed a novel chemistry-based method to detect adenine methylation. A DNA probe functionalized with a formyl group discriminates between adenine and N6-methyl adenine by the formation of a selective interstrand cross-link.
