A total of 16 oligodeoxyribonucleotides of general sequence 5′-TCTTCTZTCTTTCT-3′, whereZdenotes anN-acyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)glycine residue, were prepared via solid phase synthesis. The ability of these oligonucleotides to form triplexes with the duplex 5′-AGAAGATAGAAAGA-HEG-TCTTTCTATCTTCT-3′, where HEG is a hexaethylene glycol linker, was tested. In these triplexes, an ‘interrupting’ T:A base pair faces theZresidue in the third strand. Among the acyl moieties ofZtested, an anthraquinone carboxylic acid residue linked via a glycinyl group gave the most stable triplex, whose UV melting point was 8.4°C higher than that of the triplex with 5′-TCTTCTGTCTTTCT-3′ as the third strand. The results from exploratory nuclease selection experiments suggest that a combinatorial search for strands capable of recognizing mixed sequences by triple helix formation is feasible.
