Abstract

Due to the increasing interest in the use of oligonucleotide analogues as antisense and antigene drugs, we designed a chiral analogue constituted of a peptidic frame bearing nucleobases in suitable positions (C-PNA). We recently reported the synthesis of four nonnatural alpha-amino acids with the DNA bases in the lateral chain. In this paper we present an improved synthesis of the Fmoc monomers and their polymerisation to polypeptidic oligonucleotide analogues using a modification of the standard protocol for solid phase peptide synthesis.
