Cover Feature: Synthesis of Dihydroxyalkynyl and Dihydroxyalkyl Nucleotides as Building Blocks or Precursors for Introduction of Diol or Aldehyde Groups to DNA for Bioconjugations (Chem. Eur. J. 46/2018)

Abstract

A facile approach has been developed for enzymatic synthesis of DNA modified by reactive aldehyde groups which can be used for post‐synthetic decoration of DNA through bioconjugations with peptides or other molecules. More information can be found in the Communication by M. Hocek, et al. on page 11890.
