Bent DNAs Help Probe DNA-Protein Binding
New class of artificial DNAs could help assess structure-specific DNA recognition
Celia Henry Arnaud
Many DNA-protein interactions involve structural distortions of the DNA helix. A new class of artificial DNAs, called "modular bent DNAs," could help systematically assess the role that DNA bending plays in these interactions, according to a recent study (J. Am. Chem. Soc., DOI: 10.1021/ja071335k).
