DNAmoreDB - A Database of Deoxyribozymes

Abstract:

The mercury project: A self‐cleaving DNAzyme that “switches on” in the presence of Hg2+ has been revealed by in vitro selection. The enzyme 10‐13 (see picture) utilizes two modified nucleobases to confer an RNaseA‐like catalytic activity that requires only Hg2+ and no other divalent metal cofactor. This DNAzyme is highly selective for mercuric cations.
