Abstract
Peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) enable sequence-specific recognition of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) via invasion complex formation. Here, we report a strategy using multiple parallel-stranded PNAs to enhance invasion efficiency. Cooperative binding of PNAs at adjacent target sites markedly improved invasion efficiency and enabled sequence-specific recognition of plasmid DNA under physiological conditions.
