Molecules, 2018•mdpi.comIn contrast to Z-DNA that was stabilized and well-studied for its structure by chemical
approaches, the stabilization and structural study of Z-RNA remains a challenge. In this
study, we developed a Z-form RNA stabilizer m8Gm, and demonstrated that incorporation of
m8Gm into RNA can markedly stabilize the Z-RNA at low salt conditions. Using the m8Gm-
contained Z-RNA, we determined the structure of Z-RNA and investigated the interaction of
protein and Z-RNA.
