Bio-Synthesis offer acridine oligonucleotide modification services. Acridine is an effective intercalating agent as well as being a lipophilic carrier molecule. Study have soen acridine can effectively stabilize heteroduplexes and inhibit gene expression1-3. Oligos containing acridine cannot be HPLC purified, nor can they be analyzed by HPLC, as they bind irreversibly to the column. Acridine is available as both a 3' and a 5' modifier.
