Résumé

We herein demonstrate the UV resistance of glycol nucleic acid (GNA) dinucleotides. This resistance sustains the hypothesis of GNA as a nucleic acid prebiotic ancestor on early Earth, a time of intense solar UV light. Such photorobustness, due to the absence of intrastrand base stacking, could offer an opportunity for nanodevice development requiring challenging UV conditions.
