| Abstract |
Nucleosides, nucleotides and DNA bearing reactive functional groups in major groove will be prepared by polymerase incorporations of modified nucleoside triphosphates or by click reactions on DNA. Bioorthogonal reactions of these groups will be studied, e.g. cross-linking with proteins, attachment of other useful functional groups and applications in chemical biology and diagnostics.
