The therapeutic potential of chemically synthesised oligonucleotides

Researchers at the University of Oxford have developed a chemical synthesis strategy for producing DNA incorporating non-natural backbone structures and locked nucleic acid (LNA) sugars which convey desirable properties such as more selective and robust binding to complementary nucleic acids and greater resistance to enzymatic degradation.
