Efficient RNA synthesis by in vitrotranscription of a triazole-modified DNA template

Abstract

A DNA strand containing a triazole phosphodiester mimic is an efficient template for in vitrotranscription. This is the first demonstration of transcription through a heavily modified DNA backbone linkage and it suggests that click-ligated DNA could be useful for the direct synthesis of biologically active RNA and proteins.
