Abstract
We propose linear end-to-end assemblies of short DNA duplexes based on β-cyclodextrin–adamantane complexation. The assembled duplexes exhibited increased T m values compared with those of the corresponding natural hybrids. Competition experiments with external guest molecules showed a substantial decrease in T m of the terminal modified duplexes, suggesting the viability of inter-duplex complexation.
