Abstract excerpt
We recently reported the identification by in vitro selection of 10MD5, a deoxyribozyme that requires both Mn2+ and Zn2+ to hydrolyze a single-stranded DNA substrate with formation of 5′-phosphate and 3′-hydroxyl termini. DNA cleavage by 10MD5 proceeds with kobs=2.7 h(−1) and rate enhancement of...
