Published: January 2025

The covalent capture of recognition-encoded melamine oligomers (REMO) with a target attached to a solid support was investigated. Sequence-selective pulldown of complementary oligomers was observed when the target was challenged with a randomised library of oligomers. The approach provides an affinity selection method for the discovery of functional REMO sequences.

Selective isolation of DNA is crucial for applications in biology, bionanotechnology, clinical diagnostics and forensics. We herein report a smart methanol-responsive polymer (MeRPy) that can be programmed to bind and separate single- as well as double-stranded DNA targets. Captured targets are quickly isolated and released back into solution by denaturation (sequence-agnostic) or toehold-mediated strand displacement (sequence-selective).
