Abstract

The invention relates to the combination of hydroxyamines with nucleic acid binding motifs to generate molecules and libraries of molecules targeting specific nucleic acid sequences. In particular, a series of libraries are constructed which contain hydroxyamine functionalities that are attached to various template backbones which display varying degrees of molecular recognition to phosphodiesters and varying degrees of sequence specific recognition to nucleic acids.
