摘要: Abstract This manuscript describes the result of a series electrochemical, spectroscopic and thermodynamic studies into oligonucleotide hairpin structures equipped with T-T mispairs investigates their interaction Hg(II). For this purpose, three DNAs were designed, in which stem-region remains constant loop region contains increasing (5ʹ-HO-(CH 2 ) 6 -S-S-(CH -TGTAGTTCCTTCTACA-3ʹ, 5ʹ-HO-(CH -TGTAGTTTTCCTTTTCTACA-3ʹ; -TGTAGTTTTTTCCTTTTTTCTACA-3ʹ). Various techniques such as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), circular dichroism (CD), UV-visible isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) employed to get systematic evaluation need for multiple enhanced Hg(II) binding. EIS shows an increase charge transfer resistance (Δ R CT due structural changes within thin film caused by The CD indicate induced signals from right-handed left handed structures. Highest cooperative binding was observed DNA having maximum supplemented detailed thermal analysis DNA-Hg(II) These findings further supported measurements thermochemistry ITC. Our show that number are critical maximizing nucleobase-Hg(II) interactions.
