Abstract
Pseudo-complementary oligonucleotide analogues and mimics provide novel opportunities for targeting duplex structures in RNA and DNA. Previously, a pseudo-complementary A-T base pair has been introduced. Towards sequence unrestricted targeting, a pseudo-complementary G-c base pair consisting of the unnatural nucleobases A/6-methoxy-2,6-diaminopurine (previously described in a DNA context) and A/4-benzoylcytosine is now presented for design of pseudo-complementary PNA oligomers (pcPNAs).
