Toshihiro Ihara and colleagues at Kumamoto University demonstrate a quick reversible photocircularization of an anthracene-modified oligodeoxyribonucleotide conjugate and provide an example of its analytical application.
‘ The oligonucleotide conjugate was reversibly circularized through photodimerization of the antracenes attached on both ends. This process would be potentially useful as a probe reaction with high specificity and sensitivity’ say the authors on the description of their cover.
