Dna photocleavage using texaphyrins

Methods of cleavage of a polymer of deoxyribonucleic acid using photosensitive texaphyrins are disclosed. A preferred method of use is the site-specific cleavage of a polymer of deoxyribonucleic acid and a preferred texaphyrin is a derivatized texaphyrin having binding specificity, in particular, a...

Zusammenfassung:Methods of cleavage of a polymer of deoxyribonucleic acid using photosensitive texaphyrins are disclosed. A preferred method of use is the site-specific cleavage of a polymer of deoxyribonucleic acid and a preferred texaphyrin is a derivatized texaphyrin having binding specificity, in particular, a texaphyrin covalently coupled to a site-directing molecule, preferably an oligonucleotide.
