Chimeric GNA/DNA metal-mediated base pairs.

چکیده
DNA double helices comprising chimeric GNA/DNA metal-mediated base pairs have been synthesized and characterized (GNA = glycol nucleic acid). The possibility to combine different nucleic acid backbones within one metal-mediated base pair expands the applicability of metal-functionalized nucleic acids.

Metal-mediated base pairing within the simplified nucleic acid GNA.
Hydroxypyridone and pyridopurine homo- and hetero-base pairs have been investigated in the context of duplex GNA (glycol nucleic acid). Phosphoramidites for automated GNA solid phase synthesis were synthesized economically in a few steps starting from commercially available enantiopure glycidol. Similar to their behavior in DNA, the hydroxypyridone and pyridopurine homo-base pairs display a met...
متن کاملBase pair opening kinetics study of the aegPNA:DNA hydrid duplex containing a site-specific GNA-like chiral PNA monomer
Peptide nucleic acids (PNA) are one of the most widely used synthetic DNA mimics where the four bases are attached to a N-(2-aminoethyl)glycine (aeg) backbone instead of the negative-charged phosphate backbone in DNA. We have developed a chimeric PNA (chiPNA), in which a chiral GNA-like γ(3)T monomer is incorporated into aegPNA backbone. The base pair opening kinetics of the aegPNA:DNA and chiP...

متن کاملMetal-mediated base pairs in parallel-stranded DNA
In nucleic acid chemistry, metal-mediated base pairs represent a versatile method for the site-specific introduction of metal-based functionality. In metal-mediated base pairs, the hydrogen bonds between complementary nucleobases are replaced by coordinate bonds to one or two transition metal ions located in the helical core. In recent years, the concept of metal-mediated base pairing has found...
متن کاملSolution structure of a DNA double helix with consecutive metal-mediated base pairs.
Metal-mediated base pairs represent a powerful tool for the site-specific functionalization of nucleic acids with metal ions. The development of applications of the metal-modified nucleic acids will depend on the availability of structural information on these double helices. We present here the NMR solution structure of a self-complementary DNA oligonucleotide with three consecutive imidazole ...
