Abstract excerpt
KMnO4 has been well known as a powerful chemical probe for numerous applications in biological fields, particularly for those used in conformational studies of DNA. The KMnO4 assay provides essential information for understanding biochemical processes and detecting aberrant DNA, which is associated with many genetic diseases. Elegant examples are sequencing techniques, foot-printing assays for transcriptional...
