DNA base flipping by a base pair-mimic nucleoside
On the basis of non-covalent bond interactions in nucleic acids, we synthesized the deoxyadenosine derivatives tethering a phenyl group (X) and a naphthyl group (Z) by an amide linker, which mimic a Watson-Crick base pair. Circular dichroism spectra indicated that the duplexes containing X and Z formed a similar conformation regardless of the opposite nucleotide species (A, G, C, T and an abasi...
متن کاملCG base pair recognition within DNA triple helices by modified N-methylpyrrolo-dC nucleosides.
3-Aminophenyl-modified analogues of the bicyclic nucleoside N-methyl-3H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2(7H)-one were synthesised and incorporated directly into triplex-forming oligonucleotides in order to utilise their extended hydrogen bonding motif for recognition of the CG base pair. All analogues demonstrated strong binding affinity and very good selectivity for CG from pH 6.2 to 7.0; a marked im...
متن کاملAn unnatural base pair system for efficient PCR amplification and functionalization of DNA molecules
Toward the expansion of the genetic alphabet, we present an unnatural base pair system for efficient PCR amplification, enabling the site-specific incorporation of extra functional components into DNA. This system can be applied to conventional PCR protocols employing DNA templates containing unnatural bases, natural and unnatural base triphosphates, and a 3'-->5' exonuclease-proficient DNA pol...
متن کاملDNA-directed base pair opening.
Strand separation is a fundamental molecular process essential for the reading of the genetic information during DNA replication, transcription and recombination. However, DNA melting in physiological conditions in which the double helix is expected to be stable represents a challenging problem. Current models propose that negative supercoiling destabilizes the double helix and promotes the spo...
متن کاملConstruction of a Synthetic Vector for Preparation of a 100 Base Pair DNA Ladder
DNA size markers are widely used to estimate the size of DNA samples on agarose or polyacrylamide gelelectrophoresis (PAGE). DNA markers can be prepared by mixing PCR products with definite sizes.Alternatively, they are prepared by restriction enzyme digestion of the genomic DNA of bacteriophages ornatural and synthetic DNA plasmids. The present study describes engineering of ...
