Abstract
A convenient solid-phase synthesis of oligonucleotides conjugated at the 3' -end with a tetraphenylporphyrin residue, by means of a new polymeric suppo rt bearing as a linker a lysine derivative, has been developed. A porphyrin linked 17-mer, designed for antisense experiments, has been prepared in go od yields, and its hybridization properties with a complementary DNA fragme nt evaluated by UV thermal analysis.
