Peptide nucleic acid or PNA is a synthetic DNA mimic that contains a sequence of
nucleobases attached to a peptide-like backbone derived from N-2-aminoethylglycine. The …

A peptide nucleic acid (PNA) is a synthetic nucleic acid mimic in which the sugar-phosphate
backbone is replaced by a peptide backbone. PNAs hybridize to complementary DNA and …

Herein, we present the α-selective Giese reaction between pyranosyl/furanosyl bromides
and dehydroalanine analogues, which provides access to a library of highly valuable α-C …

Radical‐based reactions usually exhibit excellent functional‐group compatibilities due to
their mild initiation conditions. Glycosyl radical involved C‐glycosylation modifications are …

Peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) are polyamidic oligonucleotide analogues which have been
described for the first time almost twenty years ago and were immediately found to be …

Glycosyl radicals, produced under mild photoredox conditions, show unique utility in the
preparation of C-linked glycoconjugates. We herein report the construction of C-glycosidic …

PNAs are emerging as useful synthetic devices targeting natural miRNAs. In particular 3
classes of structurally modified PNAs analogs are herein described, namely α, β and γ …

Peptide nucleic acids are oligonucleotide mimics characterised by high chemical and
enzymatic stability, high specificity and affinity toward complementary DNA/RNA. The lack of …

Synthesis of β-CD-galactosyl D-and L-alanines is carried out via a highly stereoselective
Grignard reaction of glycosyl iodides, Sharpless dihydroxylation and SN2 displacement of …

Glycoamino acids and glycoproteins, especially C‐glycoamino acids and C‐glycoproteins,
attract tremendous interests in the realm of biology and chemistry due to their wide …
