<p>Novel peptide nucleic acids and novel linked peptide nucleic acids, form triple stranded structures with nucleic acids. The peptide nucleic acids include ligands such as naturally occurring nucleobases attached to a peptide backbone through a suitable linker. Other nucleobases including C-pyrimidines and iso-pyrimidines can be used as the ligands in Hoogsteen strands to increase binding affinity. Two peptide nucleic acid strands are joined together with a linker to form a bis-peptide nucleic acid. The individual strands of the peptide nucleic acids in the bis compounds can be oriented either parallel or antiparallel to each other.</p> |
