✦ Synopsis
A straightforward stepwise method for the preparation of peptide-oligonucleotide phosphorothioate conjugates, was developed, based on the highly efficient Fmoc peptide solid phase synthesis, followed by oligonucleotide phosphorothiate chain assembly. The three conjugates synthesized contained 15-or 17-mer oligonucleotide phosphorothioates and 10-or 16-mer peptides, incorporating two or three arginine residues.
