On the origin of the DNA sequence selectivity of the azinomycins.
Simplified synthetic azinomycins preferentially induce in vitro DNA interstrand cross-links at the same 5'-d(GCC)-3' site as the natural products revealing that non-covalent interactions are relatively unimportant in defining sequence specificity.
