Solid-phase synthesis and hybridization properties of DNA containing sulfide-linked dinucleosides.

abstract：:Cytosines in genomic DNA are sometimes methylated. This affects many biological processes and diseases. The standard way of measuring methylation is to use bisulfite, which converts unmethylated cytosines to thymines, then sequence the DNA and compare it to a reference genome sequence. We describe a method for the cri...
