A novel linker for the synthesis of oligonucleotides on a glass support is described. Oligonucleotides synthesised on the support remain tethered to the support after ammonia treatment and are shown to take part in sequence specific hybridisation reactions. These hybridizations were carried out with oligonucleotides synthesised on 'ballotini' solid sphere glass beads and microscope slides. The linker has a hexaethylene glycol spacer, bound to the glass via a glycidoxypropyl silane, terminating in a primary hydroxyl group that serves as starting point for automated or manual oligonucleotide synthesis. 相似文献

Arrays of oligonucleotides corresponding to a full set of complements of a known sequence can be made in a single series of base couplings in which each base in the complement is added in turn. Coupling is carried out on the surface of a solid support such as a glass plate, using a device which applies reagents in a defined area. The device is displaced by a fixed movement after each coupling reaction so that consecutive couplings overlap only a portion of previous ones. The shape and size of the device and the amount by which it is displaced at each step determines the length of the oligonucleotides. Certain shapes create arrays of oligonucleotides from mononucleotides up to a given length in a single series of couplings. The array is used in a hybridisation reaction to a labelled target sequence, and shows the hybridisation behaviour of every oligonucleotide in the target sequence with its complement in the array. Applications include sequence comparison to test for mutation, analysis of secondary structure, and optimisation of PCR primer and antisense oligonucleotide design. 相似文献

5'-Phosphoramidites protected by 2-nitrophenylethyl (NPE) and 2-(4-nitrophenyl)ethoxy carbonyl (NPEOC) functions were employed for in situ synthesis of oligonucleotides in 5'-->3' direction on flat glass surfaces. By this inverse synthesis format, the oligonucleotides are attached to the solid support via their 5'-ends while the free 3'-hydroxyl groups are available as substrates for enzymatic reactions such as elongation by polymerases, thereby adding another feature to the portfolio of chip-based applications. Having a fluorescence dye present at the first base during synthesis, the quality of the oligonucleotides was analysed quantitatively by capillary electrophoresis after release from the solid support. With about 95% yield per condensation, it was found to be equivalent to synthesis results achieved on CPG support. The chip-bound oligonucleotides could be extended enzymatically upon hybridisation of a DNA-template. Surprisingly, however, only 63% of the oligonucleotides were elongated in polymerase reactions, while oligonucleotides that were released from the support behaved normally in standard PCR amplifications. This rate of 63% nevertheless compares favourably with an extension rate of only 50%, which was achieved under identical conditions, if pre-fabricated oligonucleotides of identical sequence had been spotted to the glass support. 相似文献

The labelfree detection of nucleic acid sequences is one of the modern attempts to develop quick, cheap and miniaturised hand-held devices for the future genetic testing in biotechnology and medical diagnostics. We present an approach to detect the hybridisation of DNA sequences using electrolyte-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (EOSFETs) with micrometer dimensions. These semiconductor devices are sensitive to electrical charge variations that occur at the surface/electrolyte interface, i.e. upon hybridisation of oligonucleotides with complementary single-stranded (ss) oligonucleotides, which are immobilised on the oxide surface of the transistor gate. This method allows direct, time-resolved and in situ detection of specific nucleic acid binding events without any labelling. We focus on the detection mechanism of our sensors by using oppositely charged polyelectrolytes (PAH and PSS) subsequently attached to the transistor structures. Our results indicate that the sensor output is charge sensitive and distance dependent from the gate surface, which pinpoints the need for very defined surface chemistry at the device surface. The hybridisation of natural 19 base-pair sequences has been successfully detected with the sensors. In combination with nano-transistors a PCR free detection system might be feasible in future. 相似文献

A series of non-nucleoside-based 2,4-dinitrophenyl (DNP) phosphoramidites have been prepared and used in the multiple labelling of oligonucleotides during solid-phase synthesis. The length of spacer arm between the DNP label and the oligonucleotide phosphate backbone, and the number of attached DNP groups have both been varied in order to determine the optimum conditions for anti-DNP antibody binding. Detection using enzyme-linked colorimetric techniques showed sensitivity equivalent to that obtainable using biotinylated oligonucleotides. 相似文献

The adsorption processes of oligonucleotides immobilised onto suitable photolithographic patterned gold substrates have been investigated in aqueous buffer solution by using a home made surface plasmon resonance (SPR) imaging equipment. A rapid self-assembled method for the construction of DNA chips to be used in SPR imaging experiments have been followed. The immobilised DNA molecules (probes) adopted in our SPR experiments anchored to a gold surface via thiol group were 5'thiol-modified containing a (CH(2))(15) tail. The hybridisation processes taking place with its complementary sequence have been observed and characterized by monitoring phenomena by a SPR imaging system. The two analysed oligonucleotides (probes and target) are of interest in plant gene biotechnological application and differing for the presence at the 5'-end of a poly T16 spacer. Dynamic investigation of smallest changes in SPR imaging pictures performed in liquid phase in the presence of DNA complementary probes have been performed. Quantitative information in terms of threshold of sensitivity has been extracted by using a specific images treatment. 相似文献

A method is described for selective activation of phosphomonoester end groups of oligonucleotides and nucleosidedi-(tri) phosphates via mixed anhydrides with mesitoic acid. Mixed anhydrides are synthesized in high yield and isolated by paper or DEAE-cellulose column chromatography. The ability of such anhydrides to phosphorylate different nucleophilic agents was used for synthesis of amidates, imidazolidates, esters, thioesters and pyrophosphates of mono- and oligonucleotides. Mixed anhydrides mono-, oligonucleotides and nucleosidedi-(tri)phosphates and mesitoic acid were also applied to achieve immobilization of the mono- and oligonucleotides via their end groups on hexamethylenediamine - Sepharose support. Mixed anhydrides studied may be efficiently used for affinity labeling of proteins and nucleic acids and also as material for preparating reagents for template reactions. 相似文献

We present a new procedure for the preparation of 3'-conjugates of oligonucleotides through solid-phase synthesis. A suitable universal solid support was readily prepared using a series of peptide-like coupling reactions to incorporate first a spacer and then an L-homoserine branching unit. The N-alpha-position of the homoserine carries an Fmoc protecting group that is removed by treatment with piperidine to liberate an amino group suitable for attachment of the conjugate (e.g., small organic molecule, fluorescent group, cholesterol, biotin, amino acid, etc.) or for assembly of a short peptide. The side-chain hydroxyl group of the homoserine carries a trityl protecting group. After TFA deprotection, the hydroxyl group acts as the site for oligonucleotide assembly. An additional spacer, such as aminohexanoyl, may be incorporated easily between the conjugate molecule and the oligonucleotide. A number of examples of synthesis of 3'-conjugates of oligonucleotides and their analogues are described that involve standard automated oligonucleotide assembly and use of commercially available materials. The linkage between oligonucleotide and 3'-conjugate is chirally pure and is stable to conventional ammonia treatment used for oligonucleotide deprotection and release from the solid support. The homoserine-functionalized solid support system represents a simple and universal route to 3'-conjugates of oligonucleotides and their derivatives. 相似文献

The supposed repelling mode of scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) allows truly label-free electrochemical recognition of the presence and hybridisation of nucleic acids that are immobilised on conducting DNA chips. Basically, the SECM-based detection of single- and double-stranded DNA profits from the electrostatic repulsion between deprotonated phosphate groups at the backbone of the oligonucleotides and a free-diffusing negatively charged redox mediator (e.g. [Fe(CN)(6)](3-/4-)). In electrolytes of proper pH and ionic strength, this coulomb interaction is heavily influencing the diffusion properties of the mediator in the vicinity of the surface-anchored DNA strands. This charge interaction modulates the diffusional mass transport for the charged redox species in the DNA modified regions, and thus locally decreases the positive feedback currents measured with a SECM tip placed within the electrochemical nearfield of the chip surface. This approach was used to study arrays of synthetic 20-base oligonucleotide probes that were immobilised on monolayer-modified gold surfaces. Evidence is provided that the density of probes, the ionic strength of solution and the tip-to-sample distance have a strong impact on the capability of the repelling mode of SECM to visualise probe spots and hybridisation while the concentration of the chosen mediator did not significantly affect detection. 相似文献

DNA dendrimers with two, three, six, nine or 27 arms were reassociated as complementary pairs in solution or with an array of complementary oligonucleotides on a solid support. In all cases, duplex stabilities were greater than those of unbranched molecules of equal length. A theoretical treatment for the process of dissociation of dendrimers explains the major properties of the complexes. The favourable features of DNA dendrimers-their enhanced stability and the simple predictability of their association behaviour-makes them promising as building blocks for the 'bottom up' approach to nano-assembly. These features also suggest applications in oligonucleotide array/DNA chip technology when higher hybridisation temperatures are required, for example, to melt secon-dary structure in the target. 相似文献

The present mini-review summarizes recent developments in the field of DNA separations by capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE), as developed by our group. Separation of antisense oligonucleotides in sieving liquid polymers in isoelectric buffers is first discussed. It is shown that the use of isoelectric buffers (notably His) permits very high voltage gradients (up to 1,000 V/cm) with much reduced transit times and increased resolution of all truncated and failed sequences. Oligonucleotides can also be analyzed by zone electrophoresis against a stationary pH gradient (typically a pH 6.5-10 range): if injected at the alkaline end, the sample components experience stacking and zone sharpening due to modulation of charge as the oligonucleotides move along the pH gradient. Oligonucleotides having the same length, but differing by one single nucleotide in the chain, can be separated in free solution (i.e., in the absence of a sieving matrix) at strongly acidic pH values (pH 3.0-3.3) where charge differences due to base protonation are maximized. By working in free solution, it has also been possible to measure accurately the free mobility of DNAs, shown to reach a constant value of 3.75+/-0.04 10(-4) cm2 V(-1) s(-1) at 25 degrees C and in Tris-acetate-EDTA buffer, pH 8.3, above a critical length of ca. 400 bp. However, when double-stranded, rather than single-stranded, DNA is analyzed in isoelectric His buffer, some peculiar phenomena are observed: improved resolution for smaller DNA fragments (up to ca. 150 bp) and a rapid deterioration of resolution above this critical length. Direct binding of His to the DNA helix is hypothesized, via a bidentate salt bridge of the two charged amino groups of His on the negatively charged oxygen of the phosphate group. Upon extensive binding, occupying every available phosphate site, pi-pi interactions could occur among the stacks of bound His residues, thus further stabilizing the complex. 相似文献

DNA nanostructures are ordered oligonucleotide arrangements that have applications for DNA computers, crystallography, diagnostics and material sciences. Peptide nucleic acid (PNA) is a DNA/RNA mimic that offers many advantages for hybridization, but its potential for application in the field of DNA nanotechnology has yet to be thoroughly examined. We report the synthesis and characterization of tethered PNA molecules (bisPNAs) designed to assemble two individual DNA molecules through Watson–Crick base pairing. The spacer regions linking the PNAs were varied in length and contained amino acids with different electrostatic properties. We observed that bisPNAs effectively assembled oligonucleotides that were either the exact length of the PNA or that contained overhanging regions that projected outwards. In contrast, DNA assembly was much less efficient if the oligonucleotides contained overhanging regions that projected inwards. Surprisingly, the length of the spacer region between the PNA sequences did not greatly affect the efficiency of DNA assembly. Reasons for inefficient assembly of inward projecting DNA oligonucleotides include non-sequence-specific intramolecular interactions between the overhanging region of the bisPNA and steric conflicts that complicate simultaneous binding of two inward projecting strands. These results suggest that bisPNA molecules can be used for self-assembling DNA nanostructures provided that the arrangement of the hybridizing DNA oligonucleotides does not interfere with simultaneous hybridization to the bisPNA molecule. 相似文献

Oligonucleotide arrays can be used for the analysis of microbial nucleic acid. The addition of high numbers of dTTP to the 3' ends of oligonucleotides using terminal transferase has been shown to facilitate membrane binding. This paper demonstrates low numbers of thymine bases added to the 3' end of oligonucleotides during synthesis can improve hybridisation signal intensity where the signal seen with the unmodified oligonucleotides is poor. Thus, the addition of variable numbers of thymine bases to different oligonucleotides allows the production of oligonucleotide arrays producing strong interpretable hybridisation signals. 相似文献

An engineered polymer support 5 has been prepared for the solid-phase assembly of 3'-carboxyalkyl-modified oligonucleotides using commonly available reagents. A two-step deprotection procedure resulted in the quantitative cleavage of oligonucleotides from the support and removal of the protecting groups from phosphodiesters and exocyclic amino groups of the nucleic bases. The fully deprotected oligomers, obtained in high yield, were desalted and analyzed on RP-HPLC. After characterization by MALDI-TOF, these carboxyalkylated oligonucleotides were immobilized onto the epoxy-functionalized glass microslides to prepare biochips. The performance of these biochips was evaluated under different sets of conditions and then successfully validated by the detection of base mismatches and human infectious disease, bacterial meningitis, caused by N. meningitidis. 相似文献

The syntheses are described of polymer supports useful for the synthesis of 3'-partially protected sulfhydryl, free sulfhydryl or phosphate group containing oligonucleotides. The supports are compatible with established phosphoramidite chemistry of oligonucleotide synthesis giving rise to oligonucleotides with terminal 3'-partially protected sulfhydryl, free sulfhydryl or phosphate function during final deprotection. Crosslinking of the thiol group containing oligonucleotide to sulfhydryl group specific fluorescent probes was carried out with high selectivity, in high yields under mild conditions. 3-Aminopropylated Controlled Pore Glass (CPG) was succinylated with succinic anhydride followed by the reaction with S-(2-thio-5-nitropyridyl)-2-mercaptoethanol in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC). The resultant polymer support was reacted with 4,4'-dimethoxytrityloxyalkanthiol 5(a - c) to yield the derivatized polymer supports 5(a - c). The support 5a directly leads to oligonucleotide-3'-phosphate on deprotection with ammonical DTT at 55 degrees C while the supports 5b and 5c lead to oligonucleotide-3'-thiols or partially protected 3'-sulfhydryl group containing oligonucleotides during final deprotection. 相似文献

Versatile derivatisation of solid support media for covalent bonding on DNA-microchips 总被引:19,自引:5,他引:14
A chemistry was developed that permits on DNA-arrays both the covalent immobilisation of pre-fabricated nucleic acids-such as oligonucleotides, PCR-products or peptide nucleic acid oligomers-and the in situ synthesis of such compounds on either glass or polypropylene surfaces. Bonding was found to be stable even after some 30 cycles of stripping. Due to a dendrimeric structure of the linker molecule, the loading can be modified in a controlled manner and increased beyond the capacity of glass without negative effects on hybridisation efficiency. Also, the chemistry warrants the modulation of other surface properties such as charge or hydrophobicity. Preferentially, attachment of nucleic acids takes place only via the terminal amino-group of amino-modified oligonucleotides or the terminal hydroxyl-group of unmodified molecules so that the entire molecule is accessible to probe hybridisation. This derivatisation represents a support chemistry versatile enough to serve nearly all current forms of DNA-arrays or microchips. 相似文献

Different chemical methods used to attach oligonucleotides by their 5′-end on a glass surface were tested in the framework of solid phase PCR where surface-bound instead of freely-diffusing primers are used to amplify DNA. Each method was first evaluated for its capacity to provide a high surface coverage of oligonucleotides essentially attached via a 5′-specific linkage that satisfyingly withstands PCR conditions and leaves the 3′-ends available for DNA polymerase activity. The best results were obtained with 5′-thiol-modified oligonucleotides attached to amino-silanised glass slides using a heterobifunctional cross-linker reagent. It was then demonstrated that the primers bound to the glass surface using the optimal chemistry can be involved in attaching and amplifying DNA molecules present in the reaction mix in the absence of freely-diffusing primers. Two distinct amplification processes called interfacial and surface amplification have been observed and characterised. The newly synthesised DNA can be detected and quantified by radioactive and fluorescent hybridisation assays. These new surface amplification processes are seen as an interesting approach for attachment of DNA molecules by their 5′-end on a solid support and can be used as an alternative route for producing DNA chips for genomic studies. 相似文献

Monofunctional, p-isothiocyanatophenyl-derivatives of platinum (II)-coproporphyrin-I (PtCP-NCS) were evaluated as phosphorescent labelling reagents for synthetic oligonucleotides containing a 3′- or 5′-amino modification. Synthesis and purification conditions were optimised to generate high yields and purity of PtCP-labelled oligonucleotide probes. Phosphorescent properties of the PtCP label have been shown to be largely unaffected by conjugation to oligonucleotides of various length, GC composition and label attachment site. 5′-PtCP-labelled oligonucleotides were shown to work efficiently as primers in a standard PCR. A dedicated 532 nm laser-based time-resolved fluorescence plate reader enabled highly sensitive detection of PtCP-labelled oligonucleotides and PCR products, both in solution and in agarose gels, with limits of detection in the order of 0.3 pM. A model system employing two complementary oligonucleotides labelled with PtCP and QSY® 7 dye (dark quencher) showed strong (~20-fold) and specific proximity quenching of PtCP label upon hybridisation in solution. The potential applications of PtCP-labelled probes in hybridisation assays were discussed. 相似文献

Effects of dangling ends on duplex yield have been assessed by hybridisation of oligonucleotides to an array of oligonucleotides synthesised on the surface of a solid support. The array consists of decanucleotides and shorter sequences. One of the decanucleotides in the array was fully complementary to the decanucleotide used as solution target. Others were complementary over seven to nine bases, with overhangs of one to three bases. Duplexes involving different decanucleotides had different overhangs at the 3' and 5' ends. Some duplexes involving shorter oligonucleotides had the same regions of complementarity as these decanucleotides, but with fewer overhanging bases. This analysis allows simultaneous assessment of the effects of differing bases at both 5' and 3' ends of the oligonucleotide in duplexes formed under identical reaction conditions. The results indicate that a 5' overhang is more stabilising than a 3' overhang, which is consistent with previous results obtained with DNA overhangs. However, it is not clear whether this is due to the orientation of the overhang or to the effect of specific bases. 相似文献
