The invention also features an amino-protected nucleotide that includes an activated phosphorous group such as a phosphoramidite for the production of a 5? amino-modified oligonucleotide. The invention further provides a phthalimido-modified support that can be used to synthesize a polynucleotide that includes an amino group at the 3? terminus.
