Locked nucleic acid (LNA) enhances binding affinity of triazole-linked DNA towards RNA

Oligonucleotides containing internal triazole–3′-LNA linkages bind to complementary RNA with similar affinity and specificity to unmodified oligonucleotides, and significantly better than oligonucleotides containing triazole alone. In contrast LNA on the 5′-side of the triazole does not stabilise du...

description Oligonucleotides containing internal triazole–3′-LNA linkages bind to complementary RNA with similar affinity and specificity to unmodified oligonucleotides, and significantly better than oligonucleotides containing triazole alone. In contrast LNA on the 5′-side of the triazole does not stabilise duplexes. Triazole–LNA confers great resistance towards enzymatic degradation relative to LNA alone.
