title: Modified alpha-beta chimeric oligoDNA bearing a multi-conjugate of 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)propionic acid-anthraquinone-polyamine exhibited improved and stereo-nonspecific triplex-forming ability.
abstract: Novel alpha-beta chimeric oligonucleotides bearing a propionic acid derivative of an anthraquinone-polyamine conjugate in the "linker" region sequence-specifically formed a substantially stable alternate-stranded triplex with dsDNA almost regardless of the stereochemistry of the derivative.
