Relaxation kinetics of dimer formation by self complementary oligonucleotides
TL;DR: Relaxation measurements on the kinetics of dimer formation by self complementary oligoribonucleotides of the form A(pA)n−1 (pU)n, 4 ≤ n ≤ 7.1 indicate longer helices grow more rapidly than they dissociate, with an activation energy roughly proportional to chain length.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetic discrimination in the folding of intramolecular triple helices.
TL;DR: A model for formation of H-form DNA is proposed that explains the biases observed for one isomer over the other in different situations, and has general implications for the tertiary folding of nucleic acids.
