Ly. Hsu et Kt. Yang, Synthesis and enzymatic stability of acyclic thymidine dimer analogues having a constrained anti-glycosidic conformation, NUCLEOS NUC, 18(6-7), 1999, pp. 1261-1262
Our interest to design a novel class of antisense oligonucleotides has lead
us to prepare acyclic thymidine dimer analogues having an unique constrain
ed antiglycosidic conformation. These dimer analogues showed remarkable res
istance to nuclease degradation, such as Nuclease S1, Bovine Spleen Phospho
diesterase, and Snake Venom Phosphodiesterase.
