Abstract
Oligonucleotides hold great promise as therapeutic agents but poor bioavailability limits their utility. Hence, new analogues with improved cell uptake are urgently needed. Here, we report the synthesis and physical study of reduced-charge oligonucleotides containing artificial LNA-sulfamate and sulfamide linkages combined with 2'-O-methyl sugars and phosphorothioate backbones. These oligonucleotides have high affinity for RNA and excellent nuclease resistance.

Abstract
SNM1A is a zinc-dependent nuclease involved in the removal of interstrand crosslink lesions from DNA. Inhibition of interstrand crosslink repair enzymes such as SNM1A is a promising strategy for improving the efficacy of crosslinking chemotherapy drugs. Initial studies have demonstrated the feasibility of developing SNM1A inhibitors, but the full potential of this enzyme as a drug target has yet to be explored. Herein, the synthesis of a family of squaramide- and thiosquaramide-bearing nucleoside derivatives and their evaluation as SNM1A inhibitors is reported. A gel electrophoresis assay was used to identify nucleoside derivatives bearing an N-hydroxysquaramide or squaric acid moiety at the 3′-position, and a thymidine derivative bearing a 5′-thiosquaramide, as candidate SNM1A inhibitors. Quantitative IC50 determination showed that a thymidine derivative bearing a 5′-thiosquaramide was the most potent inhibitor, followed by a thymidine derivative bearing a 3′-squaric acid. UV–Vis titrations were carried out to evaluate the binding of the (thio)squaramides to zinc ions, allowing the order of inhibitory potency to be rationalised. The membrane permeability of the active inhibitors was investigated, with several compounds showing promise for future in vivo applications.

Abstract
The synthesis of nucleoside amino acid monomers and dimers has been carried out to evaluate and characterize the impact of the neutral amide backbone on key attributes like puckering of the sugar rings and glycosidic bond strengths of these analogs. The conformational analysis suggests that amide-linked nucleotides have a high predilection towards N-type conformers. The glycosidic bond strength was found to be slightly weaker compared to ribonucleosides under acidic conditions at high temperatures. The results will be helpful to explore in future the development of fully amide-linked oligonucleotides for therapeutic purposes.

Abstract
The molecular properties of the phosphodiester backbone that made it the evolutionary choice for the enzymatic replication of genetic information are not well understood. To address this, and to develop new chemical ligation strategies for assembly of biocompatible modified DNA, we have synthesized oligonucleotides containing several structurally and electronically varied artificial linkages. This has yielded a new highly promising ligation method based on amide backbone formation that is chemically orthogonal to CuAAC "click" ligation. A study of kinetics and fidelity of replication through these artificial linkages by primer extension, PCR, and deep sequencing reveals that a subtle interplay between backbone flexibility, steric factors, and ability to hydrogen bond to the polymerase modulates rapid and accurate information decoding. Even minor phosphorothioate modifications can impair the copying process, yet some radical triazole and amide DNA backbones perform surprisingly well, indicating that the phosphate group is not essential. These findings have implications in the field of synthetic biology.

Abstract
This paper describes the synthesis of new click-generated nitrogen mustards and their biological evaluation. By using the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction, we managed to synthesize eight new nitrogen mustards. This strategy paves the way for the synthesis of a new family of nitrogen mustard, with an important structural variability. Furthermore, we studied the biological activity of synthesized compounds by testing their cytotoxicity on four representative cancer cell lines A431, JURKAT, K562, and U266. One structure, 1-benzyl-4-(N,N-di-2-chloroethylaminomethyl)-1H-[1,2,3]triazole, showed an interesting cytotoxic effect.

Abstract
Three triazole-linked nonionic xylo-nucleoside dimers T(L)-t-T(xL), T(L)-t-A(BzxL) and T(L)-t-C(BzxL) have been synthesized for the first time by Cu(I) catalyzed azide-alkyne [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction (CuAAC) of 1-(3'-azido-3'-deoxy-2'-O,4'-C-methylene-β-D-ribo-furanosyl)thymine with different alkynes, i.e., 1-(5'-deoxy-5'-C-ethynyl-2'-O,4'-C-methylene-β-D-xylofuranosyl)thymine, 9-(5'-deoxy-5'-C-ethynyl-2'-O,4'-C-methylene-β-D-xylo-furanosyl)-N6-benzoyladenine and 1-(5'-deoxy-5'-C-ethynyl-2'-O,4'-C-methylene-β-D-xylofuranosyl)-N4-benzoylcytosine in 90%-92% yields. Among the two Cu(I) reagents, CuSO4.5H2O-sodium ascorbate in THF:(t)BuOH:H2O (1:1:1) and CuBr.SMe2 in THF used for cycloaddition (click) reaction, the former one was found to be better yielding than the latter one.

Abstract
3'-5'-Deoxyribose-sugar-phoshate backbone in DNA is completely replaced by 2'-deoxyribonucleoside-based β-amino acids interlinked by glycine to create uncharged polyamide DNA with 3'-5'-directionality. These oligomers as conjugates of α-amino acids and nucleoside-β-amino acids bind strongly and sequence-specifically only to the antiparallel complementary RNA and DNA.

Abstract
Three LNA-based mercaptoacetamido-linked nonionic nucleoside dimers TL-S-T, T-S-TL, and TL-S-TL have been synthesized by HOBT and HBTU catalyzed condensation of silyl-protected 2-S-(thymidin-5 '-yl)mercaptoacetic acid or 2-S-(2 '-O,4 '-C-methylenethymidin-5 '-yl)mercaptoacetic acid with 3 '-amino-3 '-deoxy-5 '-O-DMT-2 '-O,4 '-C-methylenethymidine or with 3 '-amino-3 '-deoxy-5 '-O-DMT-β-thymidine followed by desilylation of the protected dimers. The 3 '-O-phosphoramidite derivative of one of the nucleoside dimers was successfully prepared by condensation with [P(-Cl)(-OCH2CH2CN)-N(iPr)2}] in DCM in the presence of N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA), which is a building block for the preparation of mercaptoacetamido-linked oligonucleotides of therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Thioacetamido nucleic acids (TANA) contain a backbone modification of dinucleotides consisting of a 5-atom amide linker N3'-COCH2-S-CH2 at thymidine or thymidine-cytidine dimer blocks. Here, the chemical synthesis of the TANA linked 5-methyl-cytidine-cytidine ((Me)cc) dimer block and its incorporation into the DNA sequence, complementary to human microRNA 34 (miR-34) is described. Further, for the first time, we demonstrate the biological applications of TANA modified oligonucleotides in detection and intracellular knockdown of a cancer related microRNA in comparison with DNA containing locked nucleic acid (LNA) and 2'-O-methyl modifications. The human microRNA miR-34 is a pro-apoptotic microRNA under the transcriptional control of protein 53 (p53). It gets expressed in response to DNA damage and regulates several cell cycle and apoptosis related targets. Here, we show that the TANA modified antisense oligonucleotide binds specifically to miR-34a, allowing its detection using primer extension. We also show that, using the TANA modified antisense oligonucleotide against miR-34a, intracellular levels of miR-34 can be reduced, and consequently, the expression of its target oncogene V-myc myelocytomatosis viral related oncogene, neuroblastoma derived (MYCN) is enhanced. Further, we assessed the toxicity and serum stability of the oligonucleotide to conclude that it is suitable for detection and modulation of the vital biomarker and tumor suppressor microRNA.

Abstract
The specific 1,3 dipolar Hüisgen cycloaddition reaction known as 'click-reaction' between azide and alkyne groups is employed for the synthesis of peptide-oligonucleotide conjugates. The peptide nucleic acids (PNA)/DNA and peptides may be appended either by azide or alkyne groups. The cycloaddition reaction between the azide and alkyne appended substrates allows the synthesis of the desired conjugates in high purity and yields irrespective of the sequence and functional groups on either of the two substrates. The versatile approach could also be employed to generate the conjugates of peptides with thioacetamido nucleic acid (TANA) analog. The click reaction is catalyzed by Cu (I) in either water or in organic medium. In water, approximately 3-fold excess of the peptide-alkyne/azide drives the reaction to completion in 2 h with no side products.
