A multifunctional bioconjugate module for versatile photoaffinity labeling and click chemistry of RNA
A multifunctional reagent based on a coumarin scaffold was developed for derivatization of naive RNA. The alkylating agent N3BC [7-azido-4-(bromomethyl)coumarin], obtained by Pechmann condensation, is selective for uridine. N3BC and its RNA conjugates are pre-fluorophores which permits controlled modular and stepwise RNA derivatization. The success of RNA alkylation by N3BC can be monitored by ...
متن کاملA versatile communication module for controlling RNA folding and catalysis.
To exert control over RNA folding and catalysis, both molecular engineering strategies and in vitro selection techniques have been applied toward the development of allosteric ribozymes whose activities are regulated by the binding of specific effector molecules or ligands. We now describe the isolation and characterization of a new and considerably versatile RNA element that functions as a com...
متن کاملA versatile "click" chemistry precursor of functional polystyrene nanoparticles.
Functional nanoparticles (NPs) are becoming important building blocks in the emerging fi elds of nanomedicine, nanolithography and nanoelectronics, among others. [ 1 ] Several unexpected nanoscale effects have been discovered for these new materials in recent years. [ 2–4 ] Useful synthetic routes to single-molecule polymeric NPs in the 2–15 nm size range with well-defi ned arrangement of funct...
متن کاملSite-specific labeling of RNA by combining genetic alphabet expansion transcription and copper-free click chemistry
Site-specific labeling of long-chain RNAs with desired molecular probes is an imperative technique to facilitate studies of functional RNA molecules. By genetic alphabet expansion using an artificial third base pair, called an unnatural base pair, we present a post-transcriptional modification method for RNA transcripts containing an incorporated azide-linked unnatural base at specific position...
متن کاملSpecific and quantitative labeling of biomolecules using click chemistry
Specific and highly efficient fluorescent labeling techniques for biomolecules, especially for proteins, are required for the quantitative analyses of bio-phenomena and for subsequent systems biology. Although expression of exogenous proteins fused with fluorescent tags, such as green fluorescent protein, is the most widely used method for quantitative bio-analysis, the following problems need ...
