The structure, function and reactions of nucleic acids are central to molecular biology and
are crucial for the understanding of complex biological processes involved. Revised and …

Photochromic nucleosides were designed that combine the structural features and
molecular recognition properties of nucleic acids with the light-sensitivity of diarylethenes …

This review reports on the synthesis of 7-deazapurine ribonucleosides, including C-
nucleosides, 2'-C-methyl derivatives and L-enantiomers. It covers the various aspects of …

A dramatic concentration effect on the stereoselectivity of N-glycosylation, which is
attributable to a low-concentration-facilitated remote-participation, has been disclosed …

Several 7-functionalized 7-deazapurine ribonucleosides were prepared. Glycosylation of 7-
halogenated 6-chloro-7-deazapurines with 1-O-acetyl-2, 3, 5-tri-O-benzoyl-β-d-ribofuranose …

DNA interstrand cross-links (ICLs) are the clinically most relevant adducts formed by many
antitumor agents. To facilitate the study of biological responses triggered by ICLs, we …

We have examined analogs of the previously reported 7-deaza-2′-deoxypurine nucleoside
triphosphate series of human telomerase inhibitors. Two new telomerase-inhibiting …

The antiviral activity of a series of benzimidazole derivatives and substituted benzimidazole
β-L-and β-D-2'-deoxyribonucleosides against selected RNA and DNA viruses including HIV …

The synthesis of alternating hexamers (8–13) derived from d (CG) 3 or d (GC) 3 but
containing c7z8Gd (2) or c7Gd [3) instead of dG is described employing phosphoramidite …

Abstract Oligonucleotides with alternating 8‐aza‐7‐deaza‐2′‐deoxyadenosine (=
c7z8Ad2) and dT residues (see 11, 14 and 16) or 4‐aminopyrazolo [3, 4‐d] pyrimidine N2 …
