Twisted intercalating nucleic acids (TINA) possessing acridine derivatives have been synthesized via the postsynthetic modifications of oligonucleotides possessing insertions of (R)-1-O-(4-iodobenzyl)glycerol (8) or (R)-1-O-(4-ethynylbenzyl)glycerol (9) at the 5'-end or in the middle as a bulge. In the first postsynthetic step, oligonucleotides 8 and 9 on the CPG support were treated with a Sonogashira coupling reaction mixture containing 9-chloro-2-ethynylacridine or 9-chloro-2-iodoacridine, respectively. After the postsynthetic step, treatment of the oligonucleotides with 32% aq ammonia or 50% ethanolic solution of tris(2-aminoethyl)amine led to the substitution of chloride on acridine concurrent with deprotection of the bases and cleavage of the oligonucleotides from CPG. Molecular modeling of the parallel triplex with a bulged insertion of the monomer (R)-3-O-[4-(9-aminoacridin-2-ylethynyl)benzyl]glycerol in the triplex-forming oligonucleotide (TFO) showed that the acridine moiety was stacking between the bases of the duplex, while phenyl was placed between the bases of the TFO. Thermal denaturation studies and fluorescence properties of TINA-acridine oligonucleotide duplexes and triplexes are discussed. 相似文献

We have synthesized a carbon linker analogue of INA (oligonucleotides containing insertions of 1-O-(1-pyrenylmethyl)glycerol). Thermal stability studies showed an increase in melting temperature in favor of the carbon linker analogue. We also synthesized a carbon linker analogue with two pyrenes geminally attached. Fluorescence studies of this intercalating nucleic acid with the pyrene moieties inserted as a bulge showed formation of an excimer band. When a mismatch was introduced at the site of the intercalator, an excimer band was formed for the destabilized duplexes whereas an exciplex band was observed when the stability of the duplex was retained. 相似文献

Quadruplex-forming oligonucleotides containing INA [(R)-1-O-(1-pyrenylmethyl)glycerol] insertions have been designed and studied for their capacity to inhibit the expression of the KRAS oncogene in pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells. It is found that INA can influence the folding topology of the G-quadruplex. The oligonucleotides forming the most stable G-quadruplex (ODN-637) is found to exhibit the highest bioactivity. 相似文献

We have studied hybridisation affinities and fluorescence behaviour of intercalator-modified oligonucleotides. The phosphoramidite of (S)-1-O-(4, 4′-dimethoxytriphenylmethyl)-3-O-(1-pyrenylmethyl)glycerol, an intercalating pseudo-nucleotide (IPN), was synthesised and by standard methods inserted into 7mer and 13mer oligodeoxyribonucleotides (ODNs) to generate intercalating nucleic acids (INAs). INAs showed greatly increased affinity for complementary single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), as determined by a thermal stabilisation of the formed DNA/INA duplex of up to 10.9°C per modification when the IPN was added as a dangling end and up to 6.7°C per modification when the IPN was inserted as a bulge. There was a positive stabilisation effect of the formed DNA/INA duplex on introducing a second IPN in the INA strand, when the two IPNs were separated by at least 1 bp. The effect is more pronounced the larger the separation of the two IPNs. Contrary to the enhanced affinity for ssDNA, the IPNs lower the affinity for complementary single-stranded RNA (ssRNA), giving rise to a difference in melting temperature of up to 25.8°C for two IPN insertions in an RNA/INA duplex when compared with the corresponding DNA/INA duplex. In this way INA is able to discriminate ssDNA over ssRNA with identical sequences. Fluorescence measurements show a stronger interaction of the pyrene moiety with DNA than with RNA, indicating intercalation as the stabilising factor in DNA/INA duplexes. 相似文献

Synthesis of an oligonucleotide containing one methylphosphonate locked nucleic acid (LNA) thymine monomer using the phosphoramidite approach is described. The binding affinity of this 9-mer methylphosphonate LNA towards complementary DNA and RNA oligonucleotides was increased compared to the reference DNA, but decreased compared to the reference LNA. In the 9-mer sequence context studied, introduction of a single methylphosphonate LNA monomer, contrary to a single LNA monomer, efficiently inhibits 3'-exonucleolytic degradation. 相似文献

The intercalating nucleic acid (INA) presented in this paper is a novel 1-O-(1-pyrenylmethyl)glycerol DNA intercalator that induces high thermal affinity for complementary DNA. The duplex examined contained two INA intercalators, denoted X, inserted directly opposite each other: d(C(1)T(2)C(3)A(4)A(5)C(6)X(7)C(8)A(9)A(10)G(11)C(12)T(13)):d(A(14)G(15)C(16)T(17)-T(18)G(19)X(20)G(21)T(22)T(23)G(24)A(25)G(26)). Unlike most other nucleotide analogues, DNA with INA inserted has a lower affinity for hybridizing to complementary DNA with an INA inserted directly opposite than to complementary unmodified DNA. In this study we used two-dimensional (1)H NMR spectroscopy to determine a high-resolution solution structure of the weak INA-INA duplex. A modified ISPA approach was used to obtain interproton distance bounds from NOESY cross-peak intensities. These distance bounds were used as restraints in molecular dynamics (rMD) calculations. Twenty final structures were generated for the duplex from a B-type DNA starting structure. The root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) of the coordinates for the 20 structures of the complex was 1.95 A. This rather large value, together with broad lines in the area of insertion, reflect the high degree of internal motion in the complex. The determination of the structure revealed that both intercalators were situated in the center of the helix, stacking with each other and the neighboring nucleobases. The intercalation of the INAs caused an unwinding of the helix in the insertion area, creating a ladderlike structure. The structural changes observed upon intercalation were mainly of local character; however, a broadening of the minor groove was found throughout the helix. 相似文献

Synthesis of chimeric 9-mer oligonucleotides containing methylphosphonate-linkages and locked nucleic acid (LNA) monomers, their binding affinity towards complementary DNA and RNA, and their 3′-exonucleolytic stability are described. The obtained methylphosphonate-DNA/LNA chimeric oligonucleotides display similarly high RNA affinity and RNA selectivity as a corresponding 9-mer DNA/LNA chimeric oligonucleotide, but much higher resistance towards 3′-exonucleolytic degradation. 相似文献

The design of modified nucleic acid aptamers is improved by considering thermodynamics and kinetics of their association/dissociation processes. Locked Nucleic Acids (LNA) is a promising class of nucleic acid analogs. In this work the thermodynamic and kinetic properties of a LNA quadruplex formed by the TGGGT sequence, containing only conformationally restricted LNA residues, are reported and compared to those of 2'-OMe-RNA (O-RNA) and DNA quadruplexes. The thermodynamic analysis indicates that the sugar-modified quadruplexes (LNA and O-RNA) are stabilized by entropic effects. The kinetic analysis shows that LNA and O-RNA quadruplexes are characterized by a slower dissociation and a faster association with respect to DNA quadruplex. Interestingly, the LNA quadruplex formation process shows a second-order kinetics with respect to single strand concentration and has a negative activation energy. To explain these data, a mechanism for tetramer formation with two intermediate states was proposed. 相似文献

HIV-1 integrase inhibitor T30177 forms a stacked dimeric G-quadruplex structure containing bulges 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
T30177 is a G-rich oligonucleotide with the sequence (GTGGTGGGTGGGTGGGT) which inhibits the HIV-1 integrase activity at nanomolar concentrations. Here we show that this DNA sequence forms in K(+) solution a dimeric G-quadruplex structure comprising a total of six G-tetrad layers through the stacking of two propeller-type parallel-stranded G-quadruplex subunits at their 5'-end. All twelve guanines in the sequence participate in the G-tetrad formation, despite the interruption in the first G-tract by a thymine, which forms a bulge between two adjacent G-tetrads. In this work, we also propose a simple analytical approach to stoichiometry determination using concentration-dependent melting curves. 相似文献

Preparation of LNA nucleosides requires a number of synthetic steps but very efficient procedures have been developed, as
have protocols for synthesis of LNA oligonucleotides on automated DNA synthesizers. In all cases, LNA oligonucleotides have
exhibited good aqueous solubility as would be expected from their close structural resemblance to the natural nucleic acids.
The universality of LNA mediated high-affinity and specific hybridization has been demonstrated extensively with a large number
of duplex forming LNA-oligonucleotides. Most importantly, most of the members of the LNA molecular family have been shown
to exert their substantial affinity increase (i) in combination with standard DNA, RNA and contemporary analogues and (ii)
whether inserted as single nucleosides in an oligonucleotide or as blocks of contiguous nucleotides, an important point. The
works on TFO's is expanding the usefulness of LNA to double strand recognition and it has been demonstrated that LNA it is
a promising structure for further base modifications in the pursuit of global sequence specific recognition of DNA. 相似文献

We explored bacterial RNase P as a drug target using antisense oligomers against the P15 loop region of Escherichia coli RNase P RNA. An RNA 14-mer, or locked nucleic acid (LNA) and peptide nucleic acid (PNA) versions thereof, disrupted local secondary structure in the catalytic core, forming hybrid duplexes over their entire length. Binding of the PNA and LNA 14-mers to RNase P RNA in vitro was essentially irreversible and even resisted denaturing PAGE. Association rates for the RNA, LNA, and PNA 14-mers were approximately 10(5) m(-1) s(-1) with a rate advantage for PNA and were thus rather fast despite the need to disrupt local structure. Conjugates in which the PNA 14-mer was coupled to an invasive peptide via a novel monoglycine linker showed RNase P RNA-specific growth inhibition of E. coli cells. Cell growth could be rescued when expressing a second bacterial RNase P RNA with an unrelated sequence in the target region. We report here for the first time specific and growth-inhibitory drug targeting of RNase P in live bacteria. This is also the first example of a duplex-forming oligomer that invades a structured catalytic RNA and inactivates the RNA by (i) trapping it in a state in which the catalytic core is partially unfolded, (ii) sterically interfering with substrate binding, and (iii) perturbing the coordination of catalytically relevant Mg2+ ions. 相似文献

Nucleic acids that form G-quadruplex (G4) structure have found applications in a host of research and technology regimes. Numerous G4 based aptamer drugs have been identified with pharmacological activity against cancer, HIV, prions, and blood coagulation (1). In the field of nanotechnology, G4 based sensors and nano-machines have also received much attention. The ability to synthesize nucleic acid ex-vivo allows for the site-specific incorporation of non-natural chemistries into nucleic acids that can be used to tune their physical and pharmacological properties. We summarize the results of a series of studies investigating the effective incorporation of alternative nucleic acid chemistries into G4 DNA. These modified chemistries include C8-modified guanine bases, as well as 2′-F, 2′-F-ANA, and Locked nucleic acid (LNA) modifications to the ribose sugar. We report primarily on the effect of these modifications on G-quadruplex folding topology, thermal stability, and structure. The substitution of LNA-guanosine into the core guanine tetrads disrupts structure in specific structural environments. On the other hand, 2′-F- and 2′-F-ANA guanosine can generally be incorporated without disrupting the structure when substituted into guanine bases in certain structural conformations. We find that 2′-F-ANA-guanosine and 2′-F-guanosine are powerful tools for controling the conformation of G4 structures (2). Functionalization at the C8 of the guanine base stabilizes in a manner dependent on the glycosidic conformation of the base, with different modification chemistries stabilizing to varying extents (3). The results of these studies provide useful insight on how to effectively incorporate some useful chemical tools from the growing toolbox of modified nucleic acid chemistries into G-quadruplex nucleic acid. 相似文献

Locked nucleic acid (LNA) is a modified DNA with increased binding affinityfor complementary DNA sequences. Our strategy was to use this property of LNA to inhibit undesired PCR amplification (e.g.,from contaminating genomic DNA) in a cDNA-based assay. By placing a short complementary LNA sequence in intronic DNA, the aim was to inhibit the amplification of genomic DNA without affecting the amplification of reverse-transcribed spliced mRNA. LNA was designed to bind within intron 5 in the x-box binding protein 1 (XBP1) gene. An irrelevant LNA oligonucleotide served as a negative control. In both PCR and real-time PCR, the addition of LNA showed blocking of the amplification of genomic XBP1 but not cDNA XBP1. To test the effect of melting temperature (Tm) on the LNA, we investigated the number of LNA nucleotides that could be replaced with DNA nucleotides and still retain the blocking activity. More than three DNA nucleotides reduced the LNA inhibition ability. The sequence specificity of the LNA was tested by investigating the number of LNA nucleotide mismatches permitted. The introduction of one mismatch maintained the inhibition of genomic amplification whereas two mismatches reduced the amplification. Our results show that LNA may be used to enhance the specificity of PCR by eliminating unwanted PCR products. 相似文献

Locked nucleic acid (LNA) is a nucleic acid analogue containing one or more LNA nucleotide monomers with a bicyclic furanose unit locked in an RNA mimicking sugar conformation. LNA oligonucleotides display unprecedented hybridization affinity toward complementary single-stranded RNA and complementary single- or double-stranded DNA. Structural studies have shown that LNA oligonucleotides induce A-type (RNA-like) duplex conformations. The wide applicability of LNA oligonucleotides for gene silencing and their use for research and diagnostic purposes are documented in a number of recent reports, some of which are described herein. 相似文献
