Conformational constraints of cyclopentane peptide nucleic acids facilitate tunable binding to DNA.
Nucleic Acids Research, 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 ...

Peptide Nucleic Acid Microarrays [PDF]
, 2004 A fast and economical procedure for the production of peptide nucleic acid (PNA) microarrays is presented. PNA oligomers are synthesized in a fully automatic manner in 96-well plates using standard Fmoc chemistry. Subsequently, the oligomers are released from the support and spotted onto glass or silicone slides, which were activated by succinimidyl ...

Peptide Nucleic Acids and Gene Editing: Perspectives on Structure and Repair
Molecules, 2020 Unusual nucleic acid structures are salient triggers of endogenous repair and can occur in sequence-specific contexts. Peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) rely on these principles to achieve non-enzymatic gene editing.

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 ...

GibbsCluster: unsupervised clustering and alignment of peptide sequences [PDF]
, 2017 Receptor interactions with short linear peptide fragments (ligands) are at the base of many biological signaling processes. Conserved and information-rich amino acid patterns, commonly called sequence motifs, shape and regulate these interactions ...

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.
