Antisense PNA accumulates in Escherichia coli and mediates a long post-antibiotic effect [PDF]
, 2007 Antisense agents that target growth-essential genes display surprisingly potent bactericidal properties. In particular, peptide nucleic acid (PNA) and phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers linked to cationic carrier peptides are effective in time kill ...

Peptides for nucleic acid delivery
Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews, 2016 Nucleic acids and their synthetic oligonucleotide (ON) analogs are a group of gene therapeutic compounds which hold enormous clinical potential. Despite their undoubted potential, clinical translation of these molecules, however, has been largely held back by their limited bioavailability in the target tissues/cells.
