DNAzyme description

 Reaction  Substrates Product  Metal ion  Seq description
Porphyrin metalation S: mesoporphyrin IX (MPIX)
Cu-MPIX or Zn-MPIX Pb2+
N *
 Buffer conditions
100 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 200 mM NaOAc, 25 mM KOAc, 10 mM Mg(OAc)2
 Catalytic region of the DNAzyme
TTTGGGTGGGTGGGTGGGT
Notes
The reported buffer was used to study the Cu<sup>2+</sup> insertion kinetics into MPIX. The authors report that T30695 was not obtained from via SELEX, but was identified by screening a small set of DNA sequences. The related publication (by Yang H. et al, 2020) reports newly discovered properties of T30695, such as the insertion of Zn<sub>2+</sub> in other porphyrins, and the utilization of Pb<sub>2+</sub> as a substrate.
