Boranophosphate-Modified Nucleic Acids as Biomolecular Probes: Synthesis, Substrate, and Antiviral Properties

<p>In boranophosphate (BP) nucleotides, a borane (BH3) group is substituted for a non-bridging phosphoryl oxygen of a normal phosphate group, resulting in a class of modified isoelectronic DNA and RNA mimics that can modulate the reading and writing of genetic information. 5'-(&#945;...
