Abstract: | A method has been developed for the synthesis of bisheaded nucleosides with thymine and adenine base moieties. We have demonstrated that, when incorporated in oligonucleotides, extrahelical A-T base interactions are possible when the bisheaded nucleosides are positioned in opposite strands of the duplex and are separated from each other by one regular base pair. |
