Abstract
The isopolar nonisosteric phosphonate analogs of ApA differing in the position of extra methylene group introduced into the sugar-phosphate backbone, featuring both possible 2',5'- and 3',5'- pairs as well as t heir conformationally restricted congeners, were investigated for thei r ability to form complexes with polyU. The results may lead to the sp ecification of candidates for synthesis of novel oligonucleotides. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
