Popis: | The amide backbone modification C3'-CH2-CONH-C5' has been further modified by introducing a methyl at C5', either in R or in S configuration. Only the S stereoisomer can adopt the required geometry to fit into a duplex with complementary RNA. Additional O-methyl groups at C2' of the furanose generate antisense oligonucleotides with considerably improved binding affinity to complementary RNA (ΔTm up to 4.4 °C per modification). |
