| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Triplex nucleic acid is formed when a single-stranded oligonucleotide binds to the target duplex DNA. Triplex nucleic acid formation is involved in the regulation of the downstream target gene expression. Triplex DNA binding proteins may be possibly involved in the regulation of the downstream target gene expression by binding to the triplex nucleic acid. In this study, we revealed the structural basis for triplex nucleic acid recognition of triplex DNA binding proteins. Also, we found that triplex DNA binding proteins promoted triplex nucleic acid formation, although triplex nucleic acid formation was usually unstable under physiological condition. Furthermore, we found that triplex nucleic acid formation repressed downstream target gene transcription to yield shorter transcript RNA.
