Abstract
A combination of the binding models for the simultaneous recognition of both grooves of DNA led to the design of a polyamide–oligonucleotide ligand that binds to a specific DNA sequence with an association constant of K_a > 2 × 10^(10) M^(−1). The oligonucleotide portion forms a triple helix in the major groove of DNA, and the polyamide unit forms a hairpin in the minor groove (see ribbon model below).
