Structure and dynamics of adenosine loops in RNA bulge duplexes was studied using time-resolved spectrofluorimetry and in aqua simulation of molecular dynamics. Thermodynamics revealed that 2-aminopurine riboside is an non-invasive fluorescent probe when built within the bulge region of chemically synthesized RNA duplexes.
