Abstract excerpt
Recently, we found a small Ca(2+)-dependent deoxyribozyme (unmodified), d(GCCTGGCAG(1)G(2)C(3)T(4)A(5)C(6)A(7)A(8)C(9)G(10)A(11)GTCCCT), with cleavage activity for its RNA substrate, r(AGGGACA downward arrow UGCCAGGC) ( downward arrow denotes the RNA cleavage site), in the presence of Ca(2+) and developed a functional SPR sensor chip with this deoxyribozyme [Okumoto, Y., Ohmichi, T., and Sugimoto, N. (2002)...
