Formation of pyrene interstrand zipper arrays using 2'-N-(pyren-1-yl)methyl-2'-amino-LNA monomer 36. Left: Tm-values and fluorescence characteristics of DNA duplexes modified with monomer 36. Arrows indicate −1 zipper orientation.63Middle: molecular modelling structure of duplex with three −1 interstrand arrangements of monomer 36 (Tm = 77 °C). (Adapted from ref. 72. Copyright 2004 RSC Publishing). Right: fluorescence emission spectra illustrating stepwise self-assembly of higher order nucleic acid structures (using monomer 36).
