title: Synthesis and properties of oligonucleotide derivatives containing a hydrophobic fluorescent dye at the 2'-position.
abstract: The oligonucleotides containing 2'-(6-dimethylamino-2-naphthamide)uridine [U(DAN)] at the different position were synthesized by the fully automated solid phase phosphoramidite methods. The UV melting profiles for the U(DAN)-modified oligonucleotides with complementary DNA exhibited sigmoidal curves whose shapes were similar to those for the unmodified duplexes.
