The conformation in solution of new modified nucleosides bearing branc
hed-chain sugars used as building blocks for antisense oligonucleotide
s is investigated by NMR spectroscopy. Within a classical approach to
the conformational study of these molecules, a new methodology is adop
ted, which is capable of exploring all the possibilities, for a given
conformational model, that are compatible with the experimental data.
The relationship between conformation of the monomers and hybridizatio
n properties of the corresponding oligonucleotides is examined.
