Conformational constraints of cyclopentane peptide nucleic acids facilitate tunable binding to DNA. [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Res, 2021
We report a series of synthetic, nucleic acid mimics with highly customizable thermodynamic binding to DNA. Incorporation of helix-promoting cyclopentanes into peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) increases the melting temperatures (Tm) of PNA+DNA duplexes by ...
