Zusammenfassung:Oligonucleotides comprising phosphoramidimidate internucleotide linkages, and methods of efficiently synthesizing these oligonucleotides with high yield are provided. These oligonucleotides form duplexes with complementary DNA or RNA that are more stable than natural DNA or DNA/RNA complexes, are active with RNAse H1, and may be transfected into cells using standard lipid reagents. These analogues are therefore useful for numerous therapeutic antisense applications.
