7. An obvious limitation of this model is that pairing of a dip (as in A · T) with another dip (as in Py/Im, this is the second situation from the top in the mismatch column in Figure 1) is mechanically possible in this model. However, for the sake of simplicity, we did not want to resort to more difficult recognition surfaces but chose to phrase the rules accordingly. However, after a slight modification of the rules, the model can easily be extended to also illustrate the so-called 1:1 binding mode (cf. A. R. Urbach, P. B. Dervan, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 2001, 98, 4343-4348).
8. In a mixture of two different unconnected polyamide strands (with for example four residues each) with DNA two 1:1 complexes and three 2:1 complexes can potentially be formed. In 2:1 complexes the polyamides either bind as a homodimer (if two molecules of the same strand bind side by side) or a heterodimer.
