title: 5-Propynylamino alpha-deoxyuridine promotes DNA duplex stabilization of anionic and neutral but not cationic alpha-oligonucleotides.
abstract: Incorporation of 5-propynylamino and 5-propynyl alpha-2'-deoxyuridine into alpha-oligonucleotides (alpha-ON) allows high-affinity targeting of complementary DNA for alpha-ON with anionic and neutral backbone but not for cationic alpha-ON, revealing clues on the role of the amino group of the propynylamino on the formation of DNA duplexes.
