Oligonucleotides containing internal triazole-3'-LNA linkages bind to complementary RNA with similar affinity and specificity to unmodified oligonucleotides, and significantly better than oligonucleotides containing triazole alone. In contrast LNA on the 50-side of the triazole does not stabilise duplexes. Triazole-LNA confers great resistance towards enzymatic degradation relative to LNA alone.
