Abstract

The porphyrin chromophore incorporated at the 5′-position of an oligonucleotide allows the simultaneous detection of the B- to Z-DNA transition via the porphyrin Soret band circular dichroism exciton couplet signal around 420 nm and the oligonucleotide CD region below 300 nm, at micromolar concentrations.
