摘要：
Taking the temperature: The electronic properties of DNA largely depend on the orientation of the π stacking. Based on the discrete clusters of interstrand four-base π stacks in Z-form DNA, a molecular thermometer that exploits the differences in the π stackings of B- and Z-DNA has been designed (see picture).
