Efficient cell penetration and delivery of peptide nucleic acids by an argininocalix[4]arene
Scientific Reports, 2019 The application of Peptide Nucleic Acids (PNAs), mimics of DNA lacking the sugar-phosphate backbone, for antisense/anti-gene therapy and gene editing is limited by their low uptake by cells. Currently, no simple and efficient delivery systems and methods

Synthesis and Purification of Peptide Nucleic Acids [PDF]
Current Protocols in Nucleic Acid Chemistry, 2002 AbstractPeptide nucleic acids (PNAs) are DNA analogs in which the normal phosphodiester backbone is replaced by 2‐aminoethyl glycine linkages. Hybridization of PNAs with RNA or DNA follows normal rules for Watson‐Crick base pairing and occurs with high affinity.
