【Abstract】 Nucleic acids and their analogues are getting more and more attention.Metal-mediated base pairs as a kind of simple and functionalized nucleic acids in special positions have widened the scope of application of functional nucleic acids and their analogues.In this type of base pairs,the representative is the interaction between metal ions and pyrimidine bases,especially the research on thymine-Hg²⁺-thymine(T-Hg²⁺-T) and cytosine-Ag⁺-cytosine（C-Ag⁺-C） base pairs.This review summarizes the structure and mechanism of metal-mediate pyrimidine base pairs as well as the application in the biochemical analysis.It explores the mode and ratio of coordination between metal ions and base pairs,the effects on the stability of DNA helical structure,the related crystal structure and the three-dimensional configuration information in the DNA helix.The analytical application mainly includes various probes of metal ions,small molecules,protein and the detection of single nucleotide polymorphism.Among them the most widely used metal ions detection,and its combination with spectrum technology,visualization and amplification technology greatly promoted the rapid development of sensitive detection technology.In further studies,it is necessary to reveal the mechanism of interaction between T-Hg²⁺-T and C-Ag⁺-C,and more attention should be paid to combining of T-Hg²⁺-T and C-Ag⁺-C base pairs with other new technologies.The scope of practical application should also be further extended.更多还原
