Cα-bimodal peptide nucleic acids (bm-Cα-PNA) are PNAs with two faces and are designed homologues of PNAs in which each aminoethylglycine (aeg) repeating unit in the standard PNA backbone hosts a second nucleobase at Cα through a spacer chain with a triazole linker. Such bm-Cα-PNA with mixed sequences can form double duplexes by simultaneous binding to two complementary DNAs, one to the base sequence on t-amide side and the other to the bases on the Cα side chain. The synthesis of bm-Cα-PNA with homothymine (T7) on the t-amide face and homocytosine (C5) on the Cα side chain through the triazole linker was achieved by solid phase synthesis with the global click reaction. In the presence of complementary DNAs dA8 and dG6 at neutral pH, bm-Cα-PNA 1 forms a higher order pentameric double duplex of a triplex composed of two bm-Cα-PNA-C5:dG5 duplexes built on a core (bm-Cα-PNA-T7)2:dA8 triplex. Circular dichroism studies showed that assembly can be achieved by either triplex first and duplex later or vice versa. Isothermal titration calorimetry data indicated that the assembly is driven by favorable enthalpy. These results validate concurrent multiple complex formation by bimodal PNAs with additional nucleobases at Cα or Cγon the aeg-PNA backbone and open up ways to design programmed supramolecular assemblies.

Molecular diversity plays a pivotal role in modern drug discovery against phenotypic or enzyme-based targets using high throughput screening technology. Under the auspices of the Pilot Scale Library Program of the NIH Roadmap Initiative, we produced and report herein a diverse library of 181 purine, pyrimidine, and 1,2,4-triazole-N-acetamide analogues which were prepared in a parallel high throughput solution-phase reaction format. A set of assorted amines were reacted with several nucleic acid N-acetic acids utilizing HATU as the coupling reagent to produce diverse acyclic nucleoside N-acetamide analogues. These reactions were performed using 24 well reaction blocks and an automatic reagent-dispensing platform under inert atmosphere. The targeted compounds were purified on an automated purification system using solid sample loading prepacked cartridges and prepacked silica gel columns. All compounds were characterized by NMR and HRMS, and were analyzed for purity by HPLC before submission to the Molecular Libraries Small Molecule Repository (MLSMR) at NIH. Initial screening through the Molecular Libraries Probe Production Centers Network (MLPCN) program, indicates that several analogues showed diverse and interesting biological activities.

A novel class of compounds known as peptide nucleic acids, bind complementary DNA and RNA strands, and generally do so more strongly than the corresponding DNA or RNA strands while exhibiting increased sequence specificity and solubility. The peptide nucleic acids comprise ligands selected from a group consisting of naturally-occurring nucleobases and non-naturally-occurring nucleobases, including 2,6-diaminopurine, attached to a polyamide backbone, and contain alkyl amine side chains.

A cyclic molecule constituted by (i) a hexameric PNA moiety complementary to six among the nine residues of the dimerization initiation site loop of HIV-1 and (ii) a spacer tethering the N- to the C-extremities of the PNA, has been elaborated to inhibit the dimerization process of HIV-1 genome. This compound has been synthesized following a liquid-phase procedure (fully protected backbone approach). Preliminary agarose gel electrophoresis analyses have shown that the cyclic PNA conjugate is able to inhibit the HIV-1 dimerization.
