  2. 1. Expanding the alphabet of fluorescent nucleic acid base analogues: Characterization of new members

    Author : Anke Dierckx; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fluorescent adenine analogue; fluorescent DNA base analogue; duplex stability; Fluorescence quantum yield; circular dichroism; B-DNA;

    Abstract : Fluorescence has proven to be a powerful tool for studying structure, dynamics and interactions of biomolecules such as proteins, RNA and DNA. However, since the natural DNA/RNA nucleobases are virtually non-fluorescent, there is a need for developing fluorescent nucleic acid markers. READ MORE

  4. 2. Fluorescent Nucleobase Analogues and their use for Investigating DNA Interactions

    Author : Anke Dierckx; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; FRET; B-DNA; circular dichroism; fluorescent nucleobase analogue; adenine analogue; duplex stability; Fluorescence quantum yield;

    Abstract : Ever since unravelling the structure of DNA, an expanding research field has emerged with ongoing efforts dedicated to increase our understanding of the molecule of life. Since the natural nucleobases are virtually non-emissive, it has been a challenge for decades to ‘light up’ DNA/RNA in order to investigate their properties utilizing fluorescence techniques.
