## Abstract Statistical analysis of structures from the PBD has been used to examine the role that the aromatic amino acids play in protein–nucleic acid recognition. In protein–DNA complexes, the residues Phe and His are found to bind selectively to the DNA chain—Phe to A and T, and His to T and G.

We have used 2D NMR spectroscopy to study the sugar conformations of oligonucleotides containing a conformationally restricted nucleotide (LNA) with a 2'-O, 4'-C-methylene bridge. We have investigated a modified 9-mer single stranded oligonucleotide as well as three 9-and 10-mer modified oligonucleo
Polyamide or peptide nucleic acids (PNAs), first described in 1991, [1] are DNA analogues based entirely on an achiral polyamide backbone (Scheme 1). The PNAs undergo sequence-specific and efficient Watson ± Crick base pairing with Scheme 1. Sections of the chemical structures of deoxyribonucleic ac
