Abstract

See full text

Probes and processes for their use for specific recognition and/or cleavage of double-stranded DNA or RNA at sequence specific desired loci through the intermediacy of a triple helix are disclosed. These probes may also be used as diagnostic chemotherapeutic agents through incorporation of a radiolabeled, fluorescing, or otherwise detectable molecule. Preferred assay conditions are also provided for recognition of homopurine-homopyrimidine double-helical tracts within large DNA by triple helix formation under physiological conditions. Hybridization probes for double-stranded recognition with binding site sizes that range >8 base pairs are also provided.
