Abstract
Only merury(II) and silver(I) ions specifically bind to natural and naturally modified base pairs in duplex DNA to form metal-mediated base pairs. We found novel specific binding of copper ion to naturally modified base pairs involving 5-fluorouracil(FdU) in duplex DNA to form C–Cu–FdU and FdU–Cu–C.
