DNA Part of an RNA·DNA-DNA triple helix

It was proved by Kunkler et al. that this sequence creates a triple helix with the RNA part (BBa_K3657022) in vitro. (Kunkler et al., 2019)

Usage and Biology

Triple helices are one of the alternative structures formed by nucleic acids. In addition to the Watson-Crick interactions between base pairs, Hoogsteen interactions are crucial for the formation of the triple helix. The binding is sequence specific.
