Solid-phase synthesis of an RNA nucleopeptide fragment from the nucleoprotein of poliovirus

Nucleic Acids Res. 1992 May 25;20(10):2435-9. doi: 10.1093/nar/20.10.2435.

Abstract

The naturally occurring RNA-nucleopeptide H-Ala-Tyr[5'-pUUAAAAC-3']-NH2 is prepared via a solid-phase phosphite triester approach using N-SiOMB/O-TBDMS-protected nucleosides. Preliminary 1H-NMR studies show that the peptidyl unit has a remarkable effect on the conformational behaviour of the RNA moiety in the nucleopeptide.
