Hello every one.
I'm finding difficulties to answer this question, can anyone help me to find the correct anwer. Please I really need it soon for my final report lab.
The question is, briefly indicate the structural features of minor groove ligands. And another thing I need to write a short intro about ligand binding/calf thymus dna. Would anyone help
Ill be thankful to u
Thanks

You'll probably find better answers at the school library. Ask a librarian if there is a searchable chemistry database and if they'd help you.

It can be expensive for the library to do the search, so sometimes they'll ask you what key words you'd like searched and they'll do it at the cheapest time... but they are also not always sure about the terms in science...

Anyway, my experience is that I'll always find topic specific info faster by using the library as opposed to internet searches. Then you can look at the journal names to get different levels of understanding. For example, an article in Parenting about immunizations is a lot less detailed than an article in Science, which is a less detailed than an article in the Lancet.

So do a search with minor groove ligands calf thymus dna.

I've also had OK results using the dogpile.com search site. It'll pull up more scientific articles through some of the engines it uses.

But if dogpile doesn't give you at least something you can use, ask a librarian for help. It is what they are there for.
