Published: October 2003

Hydrolysis of an ester substrate by a CuII complex catalyst, both attached to oligo-peptide nucleic acids (PNA), is accelerated up to 485-fold in the presence of a complementary DNA template. The approach combines the sequence selectivity of DNA-templated reactions with signal amplification by multiple turnover and the versatility of metal catalysis.
