Abstract
A large number of Locked Nucleic Acids (LNAs) with variety of modifications and restricted conformations have been developed in the last few decades. These modifications have significantly improved the biological properties of oligonucleotides, when LNAs moieties were incorporated into them. Herein, the synthesis and applications of these modified locked nucleic acids as antisense oligonucleotides are discussed.Supplemental data for this article is available online at https://doi.org/10.1080/15257770.2022.2052316 .
