Alkyl triester analogues of oligodeoxynucleotides were synthesized: [Tp(CH3)]8T(Ac), [Tp(C2H5)]8T, [dGp(C2H5)]2G, [dAp(C2H5)]2A. Their binding to complementary polyribo-and polydeoxyribonucleotides was studied by UV-spectroscopy and gel-filtration. The DNA complexes of analogues were shown to be more thermostable than the RNA ones independent on the nucleic base nature and alkyl residue size of the analogue used. Mg-salt increased the thermostability of the oligonucleotide analogue--RNA complexes. 相似文献

A novel furan containing phosphoramidite was synthesized and incorporated into model oligonucleotides. This glycol nucleic acid based building block contains a furan unit substituting the natural base, and can be used for post synthetic oligonucleotide modifications by orthogonal chemistries such as Schiff base formation after in situ oxidation or Diels-Alder cycloadditions. 相似文献

New molecules with high and specific affinity for nucleic acid base sequences have been synthesized. They involve an oligodeoxynucleotide covalently attached to an intercalating dye. Visible absorption spectroscopy and fluorescence have been used to investigate the binding of poly(rA) to octadeoxythymidylates substituted by a 9-aminoacridine derivative in different positions along the oligonucleotide chain. The 9-amino group of the acridine dye was linked through a polymethylene bridge to the 3''-phosphate, the 5''-phosphate, the fourth internucleotidic phosphate or to both the 3''- and 5''-phosphates. Different interactions of the acridine dye were exhibited by these different substituted oligodeoxynucleotides when they bind to poly(rA). The interaction was shown to be specific for adenine-containing polynucleotides. The stability of these complexes was compared with that of oligodeoxynucleotides substituted by an alkyl group on the 3''-phosphate. The increase in stability due to the presence of the intercalating dye has been determined from the comparison of melting temperatures. These results are discussed with respect to the strategy of synthesis of a new class of molecules with high affinity and high specificity for nucleic acid base sequences. 相似文献

We have synthesized the tetradecamer GAGCXGATAACAAG containing a part of the sequence of the lactose operator. A guanine base in the sequence is replaced by the adduct of the carcinogen 2-acetylaminofluorene with guanine. Under the standard conditions of de-protection, the fluorene moiety is lost, leaving behind a guanine oxidation product. New conditions of de-protection have been developed which allow the isolation of an oligonucleotide containing the adduct of 2-aminofluorene with guanine. The presence of the aminofluorene adduct greatly increases retention on reverse phase chromatography and produces a unique pattern of sequencing bands. 相似文献

The positive ion and negative ion pyrolysis mass spectra of the herring sperm DNA have been studied using desorption chemical ionization. The positive ion desorption chemical ionization spectra have been produced with CH4, i-C4H10, NH3, HCl and Cl2; the negative ones with N2O/CH4, N2O/i-C4H10, Cl2, CCl4, HCl and via electron capture. These spectra have been compared with the electron impact ionization spectra. We have observed an important increase of sensitivity when negative ionization has replaced the positive ionization mode. The series of diagnostic ions resulting from direct chemical ionization belong to the family of base + reagent ion X [BH + X] and base + X - HX ion [B]. Their abundance has increased considerably compared to the electron impact spectra. The application of these new diagnostic ions in nucleic acid studies is interesting especially for the much higher abundance of the usually weak dG fragment ion obtained in the negative ionization mode. The dG-base segment of the DNA is the most nucleophilic centre of the whole nucleic acid and is implicated in numerous important biochemical reactions involving, for example, proteins. 相似文献

The exocyclic amine protecting groups in oligonucleotide synthesis which require 8-16 hours at 55 degrees C for deprotection in ammonia have been replaced with more labile base protecting groups (dimethylformamidine for adenine and guanine and isobutyryl for cytosine). Using these fast oligonucleotide deprotecting groups which require 2-3 hours at 55 degrees C for complete deprotection, a new set of cyanoethyl phosphoramidite ribonucleoside monomers and supports has been developed. Ribozymes and substrate RNAs which were synthesized with these phosphoramidites were assayed and were found to have full catalytic (biological) activity. 相似文献

Two tris-benzimidazole derivatives have been designed and synthesized based on the known structures of the bis-benzimidazole stain Hoechst 33258 complexed to short oligonucleotide duplexes derived from single crystal X-ray studies and from NMR. In both derivatives the phenol group has been replaced by a methoxy-phenyl substituent. Whereas one tris-benzimidazole carries a N-methyl-piperazine at the 6-position, the other one has this group replaced by a 2-amino-pyrrolidine ring. This latter substituent results in stronger DNA binding. The optimized synthesis of the drugs is described. The two tris-benzimidazoles exhibit high AT-base pair (bp) selectivity evident in footprinting experiments which show that five to six base pairs are protected by the tris-benzimidazoles as compared to four to five protected by the bis-benzimidazoles. The tris-benzimidazoles bind well to sequences like 5'-TAAAC, 5'-TTTAC and 5'-TTTAT, but it is also evident that they can bind weakly to sequences such as 5'-TATGTT-3' where the continuity of an AT stretch is interrupted by a single G*C base pair. 相似文献

A novel class of chiral peptide nucleic acids has been synthesized in which the sugar-phosphate backbone of DNA has been replaced with the glycyl-proline backbone of both the
- and the
-configurations, nucleobases being attached through the 4-position of proline withcis- andtrans-stereochemistry. TheT10homopolymers withcis-stereochemistry in the
- and
-series bind strongly to poly(dA) withTmvalues of 69 and 70°C, respectively. They bind more strongly to poly(rA) withTmvalues of 73 and 72°C, respectively, and with apparent 1:1 stoichiometry. Using a mixed sequence decamer it was found that the thermal stability of the chiral peptide nucleic acid/oligonucleotide complex was comparable to that formed by Nielsen's polyamide nucleic acid. 相似文献

Helicase-catalyzed disruption of double-stranded nucleic acid is vital to DNA replication, recombination, and repair in all forms of life. The relative influence of specific chemical interactions between helicase and the substrate over a series of multistep catalytic events is still being defined. To this end, three modified DNA oligonucleotides were designed to serve as substrates for the bacteriophage T4 helicase, Dda. A 5'-DNA-PNA-DNA-3' chimera was synthesized, thereby, conferring both a loss of charge and altering the conformational flexibility of the oligonucleotide. The second modified oligonucleotide possessed a single methylphosphonate replacement on the phosphate backbone, creating a gap in the charge distribution of the substrate. The third modification introduced an abasic site into the oligonucleotide sequence. This abasic site retains the charge distribution of the normal DNA substrate yet alters the conformational flexibility of the oligonucleotide. The loss of a base also serves to disrupt the hydrogen-bonding lattice, the intramolecular base-stacking interactions, as well as the intermolecular base-stacking interactions between aromatic amino acid side chains and the substrate. Our results indicate that a gap in the charge distribution along the backbone of the substrate has a more pronounced effect upon helicase-catalyzed unwinding than does the loss of a single base. While all three substrates exhibited some degree of inhibition, analysis of both pre-steady-state and excess enzyme experiments places a greater value upon the electrostatic interactions between helicase and the substrate. 相似文献

Efficiency of the intracomplex alkylation of octadecadeoxyribonucleotide d(pC5A8C5) (target) by Rp- and Sp-individual diastereomers of the methylphosphonate octathymidylate 4-(N-methyl-N-2-chloroethylamino)benzyl phosphoramide (-pNHCH2RCl) derivatives bearing an additional N-(2-hydroxyethyl)phenazinium residue (phn), viz. ClRCH2NHpTp.(TpTp)3TpNH(CH2)2NHPhn (I) and PhnNH(CH2)2NHpTp(TpTp)3TpNHCH2RCl (II) (p = -OP(O) (CH3)O-), has been investigated. Stabilisation of the complementary complex formed by the target oligonucleotide and methylphosphonate oligonucleotide derivatives by the Phn group considerably rose the efficiency of the intracomplex alkylation of the target as compared with alkylation by reagents without Phn. RP-isomeric derivatives of (I) and (II) proved to be the most effective alkylating reagents. Specificity of alkylation of nucleic acid target by reagents (I) and (II) is studied. 相似文献

Molecular beacons (MBs) are stem–loop DNA probes used for identifying and reporting the presence and localization of nucleic acid targets in vitro and in vivo via target-dependent dequenching of fluorescence. A drawback of conventional MB design is present in the stem sequence that is necessary to keep the MBs in a closed conformation in the absence of a target, but that can participate in target binding in the open (target-on) conformation, giving rise to the possibility of false-positive results. In order to circumvent these problems, we designed MBs in which the stem was replaced by an orthogonal DNA analog that does not cross-pair with natural nucleic acids. Homo-DNA seemed to be specially suited, as it forms stable adenine-adenine base pairs of the reversed Hoogsteen type, potentially reducing the number of necessary building blocks for stem design to one. We found that MBs in which the stem part was replaced by homo-adenylate residues can easily be synthesized using conventional automated DNA synthesis. As conventional MBs, such hybrid MBs show cooperative hairpin to coil transitions in the absence of a DNA target, indicating stable homo-DNA base pair formation in the closed conformation. Furthermore, our results show that the homo-adenylate stem is excluded from DNA target binding, which leads to a significant increase in target binding selectivity. 相似文献

Compounds that are covalent analogues of nucleic acid base pairs of normal, long, and short C1' to C1' dimensions [B. Devadas and N.J. Leonard (1990) J. Am. Chem. Soc., 112, 3125-3135.] have been added to the oligodeoxyribonucleotide d(A)6 with bacteriophage T4 RNA ligase as a prelude to placing them at defined loci within nucleic acid duplexes. Analogue cross sections that represent a normal Watson-Crick base pair as well as a pyrimidine-pyrimidine and a purine-purine apposition were ligated in modest yields (approximately 20%) to the oligonucleotide. Ligation conditions were optimized for each analogue, and the cross section was joined to only a single oligonucleotide in each case. The structures of the ligated products were proved by HPLC, enzymatic degradation, and spectroscopic analyses. 相似文献

Synthesis and properties of an oligonucleotide uniformly modified with 2'-O,4-C-ethylene-bridged nucleic acid (ENA) units were compared with those of GRN163, which is modified with N3'-P5' thiophosphoramidates, with the sequence targeting human telomerase RNA subunit. Although an ENA phosphorothioate oligonucleotide, ENA-13, could be synthesized using ENA phosphoramidites on a 100-mg scale, synthesis of GRN163 was very hard even on a 1-micomol scale. In view of both stability of the duplex formation with complementary RNA and the efficiency of cellular uptake by endocytosis, ENA-13 was superior to GRN163. These findings suggest that ENA-13 has useful properties for antisense therapeutic application. 相似文献

The rate of constant for hydrolysis of a series of 4-substituted aniline mustards Ar-X-pC6H4-N(CH2CH2Cl)2, where Ar is 4-anilinoquinolinium and X = O, CH2, CONH and CO, have been measured in water and 0.02 M imidazole buffer at 37 degrees C and in 50% aqueous acetone at 66 degrees C. The equilibrium binding constants of the compounds and their hydrolysis products to nucleic acids of differing base composition have been determined at varying ionic strengths, and the results are consistent with the compounds binding as expected in the DNA minor groove. The alkylating reactivity of the mustards towards these nucleic acids has been measured in water at 37 degrees C and in 0.01 M HEPES buffer over a range of temperatures from 25 degrees C to 60 degrees C. Evaluation of the thermodynamic parameters for these kinetic and equilibrium studies suggests that the interaction with nucleic acids is via an internal SN2 mechanism involving an aziridinium ion. 相似文献

A series of dye-labeled oligonucleotide probes containing base and sugar modifications were tested for the ability to detect telomeric repeat sequences in FISH assays. These modified oligonucleotides, all 18 nt in length, were complementary to either the cytidine-rich (C(3)TA(2))(n)or guanosine-rich (T(2)AG(3))(n)telomere target sequences. Oligonucleotides were modified to either increase target affinity by enhancing duplex stability [2'-OMe ribose sugars and 5-(1-propynyl)pyrimidine residues] or inhibit the formation of inter- or intramolecular structures (7-deazaguanosine and 6-thioguanosine residues), which might interfere with binding to the target. Several dye-labeled oligonucleotide probes were found that could effectively stain the telomeric repeat sequences of either cytidine- or guanosine-rich strands in a specific manner. Such probes could be used as an alternative to peptide nucleic acids for investigating the dynamics of telomere length and maintenance. In principle, these relatively inexpensive and readily synthesized modified oligonucleotides could be used for other FISH-related assays. 相似文献

Effect of structural variations in cholesteryl-conjugated oligonucleotides on inhibitory activity toward HIV-1. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A number of oligonucleotide analogues containing internucleoside phosphorothioate linkages and a covalently attached cholesteryl residue was synthesized and tested for activity against HIV-1 in cultures of Molt3 cells. Structural features important for high antiviral activity are the presence of a cholesteryl moiety, a run of terminal phosphorothioate groups, and the presence of nucleoside residues. An increase in length of the tether between cholesteryl and phosphorus from six to 14 atoms has no significant effect on antiviral activity, and up to one-half of the internucleoside links in a cholesteryl-conjugated phosphorothioate oligomer and one-third of the internucleoside links in a nonconjugated phosphorothioate can be replaced with phosphodiester links without much change in antiviral activity. However, replacement of nucleoside units in the oligomers by a simple analogue (-OCH2CH2CH2O-) yields inactive or very weakly active compounds, even in the presence of a cholesteryl group. Dose-response patterns for assays in which cholesteryl-conjugated oligomers are added to test cells either simultaneously or subsequently to viral infection are similar for homooligomer derivatives and for oligomers containing "antisense" sequences, suggesting a similarity in mode of action for the two classes of oligomers in this system. 相似文献

The effect on oligonucleotide-template duplex stability upon cohybridization of adjacently annealing oligonucleotides, the modular primer effect, was studied with biosensor technology. DNA and peptide nucleic acid (PNA) hexamer modules and sensor chip-immobilized template DNA strands were designed for analysis of nick, overlap, and gap modular hybridization situations. The fast hybridization kinetics for such hexamer modules allowed for the determination of apparent duplex affinities from equilibrium responses. The results showed that the hybridizational stability of modular hexamer pairs is strongly dependent on the positioning, concentration, and inherent affinity of the adjacently annealing hexamer module. Up to 80-fold increases in apparent affinities could be observed for adjacent modular oligonucleotide pairs compared to affinities determined for single hexamer oligonucleotide hybridizations. Interestingly, also for coinjections of different module combinations where DNA hexamer modules were replaced by their PNA counterparts, a modular primer effect was observed. The introduction of a single base gap between two hexamer modules significantly reduced the stabilization effect, whereas a gap of two bases resulted in a complete loss of the effect. The results suggest that the described biosensor-based methodology should be useful for the selection of appropriate modules and working concentrations for use in different modular hybridization applications. 相似文献

Prolonged exposure to radiation from radionuclei used in medical research can
cause DNA damage and mutation, which lead to several diseases including cancer.
Radioactivity-based experiments are expensive and associated with specialized
training, dedication of instruments, approvals, and cleanup with potential
hazardous waste. The objective of this study was to find an alternative to the
use of radioactivity in medical research using nucleic acid chemistry.
FITC-labeled oligonucleotides that contain wild-type (wt) and modified base
(8-oxo-G) at the same position and their complementary unlabeled strand were
synthesized. Purified DNA repair enzyme, OGG1, and nuclear lysates from MCF-7
breast cancer cells were incubated with double-stranded FITC-labeled wt and
8-oxo-G oligonucleotide to demonstrate the OGG1 incision assay. We found that
FITC-coupled oligonucleotides do not impose a steric hindrance during duplex
formation, and the fluorescence intensity of the oligonucleotide is comparable
with the intensity of the radioactive oligonucleotide. Moreover, we have seen
that the OGG1 incision assay can be performed using these fluorescence
oligonucleotides, replacing conventional use of radiolabeled oligonucleotides in
the assay. Although the use of fluorescent-labeled oligonucleotides was
described in detail for incision assays, the technique can be applied to replace
a broad range of experiments, where radioactive oligonucleotides are used,
eliminating the hazardous consequences of radiation. 相似文献

Abstract A rapid recognition of aberrations in the base sequence of nucleic acids is an important step toward the diagnosis of genetic diseases. We have developed a hybridization method in which a fluorescently labeled oligonucleotide is used to detect point mutations in a target by a simple fluorescence lifetime analysis of the emission of the fluorescent label. 相似文献
