S. Obika et al., Triplex-forming enhancement with high sequence selectivity by single 2 '-O,4 '-C-methylene bridged nucleic acid (2 ',4 '-BNA) modification, TETRAHEDR L, 41(46), 2000, pp. 8923-8927
Tripler-forming ability of the oligonucleotides containing one 2'-O,3'-C-me
thyleneribonucleic acid (2',4'-BNA) unit was investigated by measurement of
the melting temperature (T-m), and the 2',4'-BNA modification promoted the
marked tripler stabilization in a highly sequence-selective manner. (C) 20
