title: Molecular recognition of a thymine bulge by a high affinity, deazaguanine-based hydrogen-bonding ligand.
abstract: 7-Deazaguanine (7-DeG) was developed as a hydrogen-bonding module capable of enhanced recognition of uracil (U) and thymine (T); a water-soluble derivative displayed high affinity and selectivity toward DNA and RNA duplexes containing single T- and U-bulges.
