Enhanced resistance to degradation ability to nucleases of single-stranded or nucleic acid fragments of duplexes containing a base sequence of a functional nucleic acid in a simple and low cost, it is an object to improve. At least one of the 3 'end of single-stranded nucleic acid fragments or double-stranded nucleic acid fragments, (A) a nucleic acid region consisting of two to five of any nucleotide, (B) gna or gnna (where each n is, independently, and a g, t, a, or c, a base analogue or a nucleic acid region consisting of the base sequence of the a) one of the modified base, and (C) wherein (A) a nucleotide sequence complementary to a region of nucleic acid It consists nucleic acid region, at least one of the 3 'end of their 5' from the terminal 3 'toward the distal side concatenates the hairpin DNA linked in sequence, and single-stranded nucleic acid fragments or double-stranded nucleic acid fragments At least one of the two nucleotides but provides nucleic acid fragments that have been modified.機能性核酸の塩基配列を含む一本鎖又は二本鎖の核酸断片の核酸分解酵素に対する分解耐性能を簡便かつ低コストで強化、向上させることを課題とする。一本鎖核酸断片又は二本鎖核酸断片の少なくとも一の3′末端に、(A)2~5個の任意のヌクレオチドからなる核酸領域、(B)gna又はgnna(ここで、各nは、独立に、g、t、a若しくはc、塩基類似体又は修飾塩基のいずれかである)の塩基配列からなる核酸領域、及び(C)前記(A)の核酸領域に相補的な塩基配列からなる核酸領域からなり、それらが5′末端側から3′末端側に向かって順番に連結されたヘアピン型DNAを連結し、かつ一本鎖核酸断片又は二本鎖核酸断片の少なくとも一の3′末端から2つのヌクレオチドの少なくとも1つが修飾されている核酸断片を提供する。
