Oligo- and poly-nucleotides: 50 years of chemical synthesis.
It is fifty years since the first chemical synthesis of a dinucleoside phosphate and a dinucleotide with natural 3'-->5'-internucleotide linkages was reported. The main developments in the methodology of oligo- and poly-nucleotide synthesis that have taken place since are described.
