摘要
In order to investigate the structural basis of the unique hybridization properties of LNA (Locked Nucleic Acid), an abasic LNA monomer (a 1-deoxy-2-O,4-C-methylene-D-ribofuranose derivative) was synthesized and evaluated with respect to influence on duplex stability, showing that effects mediated via the nucleobase are pivotal for the properties of LNA.
