Abstract

AbstractEleven different types of backbone replacements have been investigated. The thermodynamic stability of the duplexes formed between these modified oligonucleotides and their RNA complements are summarized. Among these backbone replacements, we identified two amide derivatives which display improved properties for their application to the antisense strategy. A summary of our molecular modeling study on some of these modifications is also presented.
