Abstract:
Synthesis of three different amide-linked LNA-type dinucleotides and their incorporation into 9-mer and 17-mer oligodeoxynucleotides is described; compared to the reference DNA-RNA duplex, incorporation of one of the three dimers (5'-DNA*LNA dimer) induced significantly increased duplex thermostabilities.
