Figure 3.

First derivative plots (lower) of thermal denaturation profiles (upper) of IDA–IDA snap-to-it probe ‘4’ hybridized with complementary (curve 1) or single-mismatch (curve 3) DNA in the absence of metal ion (EDTA); or with complementary (curve 2) or single-mismatch (curve 4) DNA in the presence of metal ion (NiSO4). Absorbance was measured at λ = 260 nm. The mismatch selectivity in the absence of metal ion (segment A; ΔTm = 17°C) increased in the presence of metal ion (segment B; ΔTm = 21°C) by 4°C.
