In the first section of the book, four chapters are devoted to artificial nucleic acid switches and sensors. These chapters introduce the concept of allosteric ribozymes as molecular switches and sensors; describe nucleic acid enzymes that are switched by oligonucleotides and other nucleic acid enzymes that are switched by proteins; and illustrate how switching elements can be integrated ration-ally into fluorescently signaling molecular sensors made out of nucleic acids. In the second section of the book, three chapters show that nature has been as crafty a molecular-scale engineer as any modern scientist via evolution of natural nucleic acid switches and sensors. RNAs have been found whose activities are modulated either by proteins or by small-molecule metabolites, and both kinds of system are described. Finally, the notion of exploiting naturally occurring RNA switches for drug development is discussed. . | | 出版日期 | Book 2006 | | 关键词 | DNA; Nucleotide; RNA; enzymes; proteins | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-47257-7 | | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4419-4248-7 | | isbn_ebook | 978-0-387-47257-7 | | copyright | Springer-Verlag US 2006 |
