De gustibus: β‐homoDNA has the singular property of being able to pair with homochiral complements of opposite chirality, with a greater stability than that observed in the corresponding isochiral complexes. Relevant to etiological investigations on nucleic acid structure, these results suggest the existence of a relationship between carbohydrate structure and stereoselectivity of the hybridization
De gustibus: β-homoDNA具有能够与相反手性的同手性互补物配对的独特特性,其稳定性比在相应的手性复合物中观察到的稳定性更高。与核酸结构的病因学研究有关,这些结果表明碳水化合物结构与相应核酸的杂交过程的立体选择性之间存在关系。
