Many diseases, such as cancer, are related to aberrant gene expression. Regulating transcription by chemical methods could be important in human medicine. Minor groove-binding polyamides offer one chemical approach to DNA recognition.
许多疾病,如癌症,都与异常的基因表达有关。通过化学方法调控转录在人类医学中可能具有重要意义。小沟结合聚酰胺提供了一种识别DNA的化学方法。
