Boc-Leu-Gly-Arg-PNA is a peptide nucleic acid (PNA) analog used in molecular biology. This compound features a backbone of pseudopeptide bonds, mimicking DNA or RNA sequences for research applications. The “Boc” group refers to a protective chemical group, while Leu, Gly, and Arg are amino acids that contribute to the peptide’s function. This PNA derivative is utilized in genetic research due to its stability and ability to bind specifically to complementary nucleic acid sequences.
