Abstract

Peptide–oligonucleotide conjugates (POCs) have held promise as effective therapeutic agents in treating microbial infections and human genetic diseases including cancers. In clinical applications, POCs are especially useful to circumvent cellular delivery and specificity problems of oligonucleotides. We previously reported that nucleic acid phosphoramidation reactions performed in aqueous solutions have the potential for facile ...
