    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DNA; Fluorescent DNA base analog; UV‐Vis spectroscopy; DNA nanostructure; self‐assembly; time‐resolved fluorescence spectroscopy;

    Abstract : Much has been learnt about DNA since its structure was discovered about half a century ago. Scientists everlasting urge to look beyond and deeper into the intricate machinery of life, has continuously pushed technology forward. READ MORE

  5. 3. Kinetic Recognition of Nucleic Acids - Studies on the DNA Binding Selectivity of Threading Ruthenium Complexes

    Author : Pär Nordell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; intercalation; circular dicroism; ruthenium complexes; sequence selectivity; fluorescence; DNA; supercoiling; spectroscopy; kinetics;

    Abstract : Despite the great progress in our understanding of DNA during the past half-century, there are many important aspects of its chemical and biological role yet to be explored. The principles by which it selectively interacts with other molecules have attracted much interest due to the relevance for fundamental cellular processes, as well as for the development of diagnostic probes and effective pharmaceutical agents.

  6. 4. Spectroscopic studies of biomolecules confined in self-assembled nanostructures

    Author : Nils Carlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The present thesis examines the effects of incorporating biomolecules into self-assembled nanostructures. This approach is exemplified by short DNA molecules in environments close to lipid bilayers and the immobilization of enzymes into mesoporous silica particles. READ MORE

  7. 5. 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.
