An Introduction to Peptide Nucleic Acid [PDF]
Peptide Nucleic Acid (PNA) is a powerful new biomolecular tool with a wide range of important applications. PNA mimics the behaviour of DNA and binds complementary nucleic acid strands. The unique chemical, physical and biological properties of PNA have been exploited to produce powerful biomolecular tools, antisense and antigene agents, molecular ...

The folding propensity of α/sulfono-γ-AA peptidic foldamers with both left- and right-handedness
Controlling the helical structure of peptide foldamers requires detailed understanding of the relationship between primary and secondary structure. Here the effect of monomer stoichiometry and configuration on the helical structures of peptide nucleic ...

Exploiting double exchange Diels-Alder cycloadditions for immobilization of peptide nucleic acids on gold nanoparticles [PDF]
The generation of PNA-decorated gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) has revealed to be more difficult as compared to the generation of DNA-functionalized ones. The less polar nature of this artificial nucleic acid system and the associated tendency of the neutral

Peptide nucleic acids in materials science [PDF]
This review highlights the recent methods to prepare PNA-based materials through a combination of self-assembly and self-organization processes. The use of these methods allows easy and versatile preparation of structured hybrid materials showing specific recognition properties and unique physicochemical properties at the nano- and micro-scale levels ...
