Abstract excerpt
A parallel binding motif 16mer triplex-forming oligonucleotide (TFO) complementary to a polypurine-polypyrimidine target region near the 3'-end of the SupF gene of plasmid pSP189 was labeled with [5-(125)I]dCMP at position 15. Following triplex formation and decay accumulation, radiation-induced site-specific double-strand breaks (DSBs) were produced in the pSP189 SupF gene. Bulk damaged DNA and the isolated...
