Characterization of a fluorescence-signaling and RNA-cleaving deoxyribozyme.

Abstract

DNA enzymes (deoxyribozymes or DNAzymes) are single-stranded DNA molecules with catalytic function. Previously, we isolated several RNA-cleaving deoxyribozymes with fluorescence-signaling properties. These special DNA molecules are capable of cleaving an RNA linkage embedded within a DNA sequence and flanked by a pair of deoxyribothymidines modified with a fluorophore (fluorescein) and a quencher (dabcyl). Here we report on the sequence …
