... T7, etc.) on the DNA exten-sion reaction by using32P-labeling primer or template in the presence or absence of DNA -binding agents(DDIs and doxorubicin). The DNA bulge binding of both compounds ... For example, the change in Tm(DTm) for the ATT bulge increased by 3.4 and 1.7 °C in the presence of DDI-1A and DDI-1B, respectively. The increase in DTm for DDI-1A was higher than that for ... tendency for repeatingDNA strands to form hairpin loops or slipped confor-mations, and their inherent conformational properties, for example their high degree of flexibility, writhing and the stability...
