Abstract
Reactivity of the Co(III) complex of cyclen (CoCyc) in the hydrolytic cleav age of supercoiled pUC18 DNA leading to the formation of the corresponding open circular form was enhanced by > 200 times upon attachment of CoCyc to cross-linked polystyrenes. Thus, half-lives as short as 40 min were achieve d by the resin-based CoCyc in cleavage of the supercoiled DNA Lit 4 degrees C. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
