Thermal difference spectra: a specific signature for nucleic acid structures.

abstract：:Allosteric nucleic acid ligases have been used previously to transform analyte-binding into the formation of oligonucleotide templates that can be amplified and detected. We have engineered binary deoxyribozyme ligases whose two components are brought together by bridging oligonucleotide effectors. The engineered liga...
