Professor Timofei Zatsepin has co-authored a paper “Silver(I)-mediated base pairing in DNA involving the artificial nucleobase 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-1,N6-ethenoadenine” that has been recently published in Journal of Inorganic Biochemistry. The researchers have described the properties of an artificial nucleobase 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-1,N6-ethenoadenine that can form base pairs mediated by silver ions. Full text of the paper is available here.
