Abstract |
DNA bearing reactive functional groups in major groove will be prepared by polymerase incorporations of modified nucleoside triphosphates. 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.
