Abstract
As documented in the recent literature, there are more than 50 million people infected with HIV worldwide to date since the emergence of HIV and AIDS in the Western world in 1981. More importantly, about 7000 people die of AIDS daily with 2.5 and 2.6 millions total deaths in 1998 and 1999, respectively. On the other hand, human hepatitis B virus (HBV) is the leading cause of chronic hepatitis in the world. According to

Chalcogen-modified nucleic acid analogues
Chalcogen-modified nucleosides, nucleotides and oligonucleotides have been of great interest to scientific research for many years. The replacement of oxygen in the nucleobase, sugar or phosphate backbone by chalcogen atoms (sulfur, selenium, tellurium) gives these biomolecules unique properties resulting from their altered physical and chemical properties. The continuing interest in ...read more
