The synthesis of DNA (oligodeoxyribonucleotide) has been described containing the biaryl-type nucleoside surrogates, 6-deamino-2'-deoxy-6-(l-naphthyl) adenosine (AN) and 6-deamino-2'-deoxy-6-(1-pyrenyl) adenosine (AP). It is found that incorporation of multiple ATM or AP residues in the middle of DNA duplexes does not significantly destabilize the duplexes and that the fluorescence intensities of the oligonucleotides containing AN or Ap significantly increases in the duplexes formed.展开更多
