Various chimeric oligonucleotides consisting of alpha- and beta-anomer
ic deoxynucleotide units have been synthesized and their hybridizing a
bilities to complementary DNA or RNA single strands, and their stabili
ty in cell culture medium or cell extracts, were studied. The results
provide guide lines for optimization of antisense chimeric oligodeoxyn
ucleotides.
