The preparation and thermodynamic property of 8-methylguanine (8mG)-containing oligonucleotides were described. It was found that the introduction of a methyl group at the guanine C8 position remarkably stabilizes the Z conformation of short oligonucleotides of a variety of base sequences under low salt conditions.
