Abstract

The present invention relates to novel target double-stranded DNA sequences capable of interacting with a third strand and of forming a stable triple helix. The present invention also relates to a process for purifying a double-stranded DNA molecule, according to which a solution containing said DNA molecule is brought into contact with a third DNA strand capable of forming, by hybridization, a triple helix structure with a target double-stranded DNA sequence carried by said DNA molecule.
