title: Oligomerization of deoxyguanosine 5'-phosphoro-2-methylimidazolide on a polycytidylate template.
abstract: The oligomerization of deoxyguanosine 5'-phosphoro-2-methylimidazolide on a polycytidylate template is much less efficient than the oligomerization of the corresponding activated ribonucleotide. Nonetheless oligomers containing up to eight nucleotide residues are detected. The products are 3'-5'-linked oligodeoxyribonucleotides capped at the 5'-terminus with a pyrophosphate-linked monomer.
