A Trisbenzimidazole Phosphoramidite Building Block Enables High-Yielding Syntheses of RNA-Cleaving Oligonucleotide Conjugates
The RNA cleaving catalyst tris(2-aminobenzimidazole) when attached to the 5’ terminus of oligonucleotides cuts complementary RNA strands in a highly site-specific manner. Conjugation was previously achieved by the acylation of an amino linker by an active ester of the catalyst. However, this procedu...
