Abstract: | The fluorophores 1-ethynylpyrene and 1-(p-ethynyl-phenylethynyl)-pyrene were attached to RNA through a Sonogashira cross-coupling with 5-iodocytidine either in solution through phosphoamidite synthesis or via on-column conjugation during solid-phase oligonucleotide synthesis. Six probes with the sequence 5'-CUU UUC UUU CUU-3' were derivatized with both fluorophores, whereby the position of the modified cytidine was varied. Fluorescence measurements showed sensitivity of the pyrene group to its environment in the single strands and corresponding duplexes. |
