Abstract

Oligonucleotide analogs are disclosed wherein one or more phosphodiester linkages between adjacent nucleotides are replaced by a backbone linkage resistant to nucleases. The modified oligonucleotides are capable of strong hybridization to target RNA or DNA. The oligomers of the invention may be used as diagnostic reagents to detect the presence or absence of the target DNA or RNA sequences to which they bind.
