[Oligonucleotide analogues bearing an acyclonucleoside linked by an internucleotide amide bond].
Oligonucleotide analogues bearing an acyclocytidine linked to thymidine by an amide (3'-O-CH2-CO-N-5') bond were synthesized. Melting curves of duplexes formed by modified oligonucleotides and complementary natural oligomers were obtained and thermodynamic parameters of their formation were measured. Replacement of dCpT by a modified dinucleotide only moderately decreased the melting temperature of these modified duplexes in comparison with unmodified duplexes containing complementary natural bases. CD spectra of modified duplexes were studied, and the duplex spatial structures are discussed.
