Strategies for functionalizing diverse tetrahedral framework nucleic acids (tFNAs) have been
extensively explored since the first successful fabrication of tFNA by Turberfield. One‐pot …

The incorporation of metal ions into nucleic acids by means of metal‐mediated base pairs
represents a promising and prominent strategy for the site‐specific decoration of these self …

Metal-mediated base pairs represent a topical area of research at the border of bioinorganic
chemistry, supramolecular coordination chemistry and DNA nanotechnology. In a metal …

The challenge of transforming organized DNA structures into their metallized counterparts
persists in the scientific field. In this context, utilizing DNA molecules modified with 7 …

Two aptamers, one for ATP and one for arginine, were modified using an artificial 2′-
dexoyribonucleoside based on the nucleobase surrogate imidazole-4-carboxylate. This …

Metal‐mediated base pairs (MMBPs) formed by natural or artificial nucleobases have
recently been developed. The metal ions can be aligned linearly in a duplex by MMBP …

The use of imidazole-4-carboxylate (X) as an artificial nucleobase in metal-mediated base
pairing is reported. Towards this end, the corresponding deoxyribonucleoside was …

Atomic‐level control over the position and growth of a single and continuous metal chain is
an ambitious goal that often requires complex and costly processes. Herein, we demonstrate …

When covalently incorporating ligands capable of forming chiral metal complexes into a
DNA oligonucleotide duplex, an enantiospecific formation of metal‐mediated base pairs is …

A stable zinc (II)-mediated base pair was formed within a parallel-stranded DNA duplex
comprising a GNA (glycol nucleic acid) functionalized nucleoside analog containing the …
