Cover Picture: Specific Induced Circular Dichroism and Enhanced B to Z Transitions of Duplexes Stabilized by Chromophore‐Linked Alkynylnucleoside Residues (Chem. Eur. J. 8/2010)

Specific induced circular dichroism (ICD) for Z-DNA is produced by chromophore-linked alkynyldeoxyribose skeletons that exist at the 5′ ends of CG-repeated oligonucleotides. In their Full Paper on page 2401 ff., K. Fujimoto, M. Inouye et al. describe the CD spectra of the CG-repeated oligonucleotides labeled with the chromophore-linked alkynyldeoxyriboses as an ICD probe for their B to Z transitions.
