Three chimeric dimer synthons (oeg_t(NH)T, oeg_up(NH)T and oeg_uh(NH)T) containing thymine (t), 5-(1-propynyl)-uracil (up) and 5-(1-hexyn-1-yl)-uracil (uh) PNA units with N-(2-hydroxyethyl)glycine (oeg) backbone were synthesized in solution and incorporated into T-20 oligonucleotide analogues, using standard P-amidite chemistry. Insertion of dimer blocks led to destabilization of duplexes with dA(20) target. The smallest T-m drops were found for chimeras containing oeg_up(NH)T dimers. Incorporation of the chimeric synthons into the 3'-end of T-20 brought about growing resistance to 3'-exonucleolytic (SV PDE) cleavage in the order of oeg_t(NH)T < oeg_up(NH)T < oeg_uh(NH)T. Due to different endonuclease activities of 3'- and 5'-exonucleases applied, placing of five consecutive dimers at the 5'-terminus resulted in a relatively smaller, but also side-chain dependent, stabilization towards the hydrolysis by 5'-exonuclease (BS PDE). Neither exonucleases (SV and BS PDE) nor an endonuclease (Nuclease P-1) could hydrolyse the unnatural phosphodiester bond linking the 3'-OH of thymidine to the terminal OH of N-(2-hydroxyethyl)glycine PNA backbone.

The present invention describes a method for identifying one or more of a plurality of sequences differing by one or more single base changes, insertions, deletions, or translocations in a plurality of target nucleotide sequences. The method includes a ligation phase, a capture phase, and a detection phase. The ligation phase utilizes a ligation detection reaction between one oligonucleotide probe, which has a target sequence-specific portion and an addressable array-specific portion, and a second oligonucleotide probe, having a target sequence-specific portion and a detectable label. After the ligation phase, the capture phase is carried out by hybridizing the ligated oligonucleotide probes to a solid support with an array of immobilized capture oligonucleotides at least some of which are complementary to the addressable array-specific portion. Following completion of the capture phase, a detection phase is carried out to detect the labels of ligated oligonucleotide probes hybridized to the solid support.
