Abstract: PNAs are oligomers with a backbone composed of N-(2- aminoethyl) glycine units. They are chemically stable and resistant to hydrolytic cleavage and can hybridize to complementary DNA and RNA. PNA also show greater specificity and are stable over a wide range of pH and temperature. The unique characteristics of PNAs have allowed the development of a lot of different biological assays. In our opinion paper, we summarized the PNA applications focusing on the diagnosis of leukemia.
