title: Combinatorial approach to development of peptides that recognize DNA tetraloops.
abstract: We report recognition system for DNA tetraloops (dA1G2G3C4T5T6C7G8G9C10C11T12 (core) and dAGGCTTCGGCCT (AP2); X = abasic nucleotide) by peptides selected with combinatorial chemistry. As a result, peptides with Thr/Glu/His and Gln/Asp were obtained in binding of DNA core and AP2, respectively.
