Application of peptide nucleic acid (PNA) for detection of transcription factors binding probes.

We designed novel PNA monomer units that could post-synthetically and quantitatively introduce photo-functionalized molecules into PNA oligomers. Designed photo-functionalized PNAs were applicable to wide fields such as genome based analysis. In this study, we applied a photo-functionalized PNA oligomers for the detection of transcription factors binding probes.
