Anomeric inversion (from beta to alpha) in methylphosphonate oligonucleosides enhances their affinity for DNA and RNA.

abstract：:DNA breaks occur during many processes in mammalian cells, including recombination, repair, mutagenesis and apoptosis. Here we report a simple and rapid method for assaying DNA breaks and identifying DNA breaksites. Breaksites are first tagged and amplified by ligation-mediated PCR (LM-PCR), using nested PCR primers t...
