Abstract:Triplex-forming oligonucleotide (TFO) is able to hybridize with a double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) target in a sequence-specific manner to form a triplex DNA, and it has attracted great interest because of its applications to gene therapy and diagnosis. 2-4) There are two fashions in triplex formation. One is a parallel motif triplex, where a TFO consisting of a homopyrimidine sequence hybridizes with a dsDNA target in parallel with a purine strand of the target duplex via Hoog-steen hydrogen bond. The other is an … Show more
