We analyzed the effect of 2′-O,4′-C-methylene bridged nucleic acid (2′,4′-BNA) modification of triplex-forming oligonucleotide (TFO) on pyrimidine motif triplex formation at neutral pH, a condition where pyrimidine motif triplexes are unstable. The binding constant of the pyrimidine motif triplex formation at pH 6.8 with 2′,4′-BNA modified TFO was about 20 times larger than that observed with unmodified TFO. The observed increase in the binding constant at neutral pH by the 2′,4′-BNA modification resulted from the considerable decrease in the dissociation rate constant.
