Abstract: | cpa-DNA monomers containing the bases adenine and thymine have been synthesized starting from the known compound 1 in 12 steps. Partially and fully modified cpa-thymidine and cpa-adenosine containing oligodeoxynucleotides were synthesized by standard oligonucleotide chemistry. Fully modified homo-cpa-A sequences lead to duplex destabilization by -1.4 degrees C/mod. relative to DNA. As its congener bca-DNA, cpa-DNA prefers left-handed duplex formation where possible. |
