title: Stepwise solid-phase synthesis of nucleopeptides.
abstract: Phosphodiester-linked peptide-oligonucleotide conjugates (nucleopeptides) are obtained by stepwise solid-phase procedures. The peptide is first assembled on a suitably derivatized solid matrix and the oligonucleotide is subsequently elongated at the free hydroxyl group of the linking amino acid. Temporary acid-labile and permanent base-labile protecting groups are combined. Careful choice of the protection scheme is required to prevent and minimize side reactions that may degrade the target molecule.
