Force spectroscopy reveals the DNA structural dynamics that govern the slow binding of Actinomycin D

Actinomycin D (ActD) is a small molecule with strong antibiotic and anticancer activity. However, its biologically relevant DNA-binding mechanism has never been resolved, with some studies suggesting that the primary binding mode is intercalation, and others suggesting that single-stranded DNA bindi...
