Acta Informatica Medica, 2011 Peptide nucleic acid (PNA) is a nucleic acid analog in which the sugar phosphate backbone of natural nucleic acid has been replaced by a synthetic peptide backbone usually formed from N-(2-amino-ethyl)-glycine units. It is chemically stable and resistant to hydrolytic enzyme cleavage and thus not expected to be degraded inside a living cell.

Polyanionic Carboxyethyl Peptide Nucleic Acids (ce-PNAs): Synthesis and DNA Binding. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 New polyanionic modifications of polyamide nucleic acid mimics were obtained. Thymine decamers were synthesized from respective chiral α- and γ-monomers, and their enantiomeric purity was assessed. Here, we present the decamer synthesis, purification and

N-terminal proteomics assisted profiling of the unexplored translation initiation landscape in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
, 2017 Proteogenomics is an emerging research field yet lacking a uniform method of analysis. Proteogenomic studies in which N-terminal proteomics and ribosome profiling are combined, suggest that a high number of protein start sites are currently missing in ...

Features of “All LNA” Duplexes Showing a New Type of Nucleic Acid Geometry
Journal of Nucleic Acids, 2012 “Locked nucleic acids” (LNAs) belong to the backbone-modified nucleic acid family. The 2′-O,4′-C-methylene-β-D-ribofuranose nucleotides are used for single or multiple substitutions in RNA molecules and thereby introduce enhanced bio- and thermostability.

Peptide Nucleic Acids as miRNA Target Protectors for the Treatment of Cystic Fibrosis
Molecules, 2017 Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is one of the most common life shortening conditions in Caucasians. CF is caused by mutations in the CF Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene which result in reduced or altered CFTR functionality. Several microRNAs (miRNAs)
