Welcome

Explore with us the exciting chemistry of nucleic acids! We synthesize chemically modified DNA and RNA, develop DNA catalysts, ribozymes and RNA aptamers, and explore their functions and innovative applications at the interface of chemistry and biology.

The crystal structure of the methyltransferase ribozyme MTR1 provides mechanistic insights into RNA-catalyzed RNA methylation. Published in Nat Chem Biol, 2022.
