Recognition and Reaction of Metallointercalators with DNA

  • 1. ROR icon California Institute of Technology

Abstract

The design of small complexes that bind and react at specific sequences of DNA becomes important as we begin to delineate, on a molecular level, how genetic information is expressed. A more complete understanding of how to target DNA sites with specificity will lead not only to novel chemotherapeutics but also to a greatly expanded ability for chemists to probe DNA and to develop highly sensitive diagnostic agents.
