N. Sugimoto et N. Wakizaka, EFFECT OF CU2-FORMATION BETWEEN A DEOXYRIBOZYME AND ITS SUBSTRATES( ON COMPLEX), Nucleosides & nucleotides, 17(1-3), 1998, pp. 565-574
Effect of metal ions on secondary-structure formation of a deoxyribozy
me-two substrates complex has been investigated by using surface plasm
on resonance and secondary-structure predicting calculation. The resul
t showed that Cu2+ not only acts on the ligation reaction but also pla
ys the role of a promoter which makes an active conformation of the de
oxyribozyme-substrate complex.
