Abstract
To develop a thiol-responsive DNA-releasing system, a thiol-responsive amino acid capable of inducing an amide bond cleavage in the presence of a thiol was developed. It was successfully combined with peptide nucleic acid (PNA), and thiol-induced release of DNA from the thiol-responsive PNA/DNA complex was observed.
