A novel class of compounds, known as peptide nucleic acids, bind complementary ssDNA and RNA strands more strongly than a corresponding DNA. The peptide nucleic acids generally comprise ligands such as naturally occurring DNA bases attached to a peptide backbone through a suitable linker.
一种新型化合物,被称为肽核酸,能够比相应的DNA更强烈地结合互补的单链DNA和RNA。肽核酸通常包括
配体,如天然存在的DNA碱基,通过适当的连接剂连接到肽骨架上。
