The stereoselective synthesis of a novel aromatic peptide nucleic acid (APNA) oligomer
… oligomers, the aromatic peptide nucleic acids (APNA). The APNA tetramer 70 was prepared from the amino acid monomer (S)-50 using classical peptide synthesis. Chemical shift differences between the $\sp1$H NMR of monomer (S)-57 and tetramer 70 were observed which suggested that base stacking …

Synthesis of aromatic peptide nucleic acids
… two analogues of Aromatic Peptide Nucleic Acids (APNAs) monomers was successfully achieved. These Peptide Nucleic Acid analogues could be used as building blocks for the synthesis of oligomers with the DNA and RNA recognition properties of PNAs in addition to a more hydrophobic backbone which may …

Mechanisms of polyphosphate degradation
The goal of my research has been to investigate the mechanisms by which inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) is degraded in vivo. PolyP is a linear chain of phosphate moieties linked through high-energy phosphoanhydride bonds and can range in size from three-phosphates-long to thousands. Naturally, …
