Halogenation of tubercidin by N-halosuccinimides. A direct route to 5-bromotubercidin, a reversible inhibitor of RNA synthesis in eukaryotic cells.

abstract：:We show that using low denaturation temperatures (80-88 degrees C) during ligation mediated PCR (LM PCR) of bacterial DNA leads to the amplification of limited sets of the less stable DNA fragments. A set of electrophoretic patterns of such fragments obtained at different denaturation temperatures forms the PCR meltin...
