Synthesis of α-l-Threofuranosyl Nucleoside Triphosphates (tNTPs)
نویسندگان
چکیده
[structure: see text] The alpha-l-threofuranosyl nucleoside triphosphates of T, G, and D (tTTP, tGTP, and tDTP) were synthesized from the described 2'-O-DMT-protected derivatives using the Eckstein method, while the corresponding C derivative (tCTP) was prepared from the 2'-O-acetyl derivative. The prepared alpha-l-threofuranosyl nucleoside triphosphates, despite being one carbon shorter than the native 2'-deoxyfuranosyl nucleoside triphosphates, are effective substrates for selected DNA polymerases.

[Structure: see text] The synthesis of (S)-glycerol nucleoside triphosphates (gNTPs) and the analysis of their substrate activities for enzymatic polymerization is described. NTPs with simplified carbohydrate backbones such as the tNTPs (alpha-L-threose-NTPs) are polymerase substrates and offer the potential to create non-natural aptamer sequences with simplified backbones through enzymatic mea...
متن کاملKinetic Analysis of an Efficient DNA-Dependent TNA Polymerase
alpha-l-Threofuranosyl nucleoside triphosphates (tNTPs) are tetrafuranose nucleoside derivatives and potential progenitors of present-day beta-d-2'-deoxyribofuranosyl nucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs). Therminator DNA polymerase, a variant of the 9 degrees N DNA polymerase, is an efficient DNA-directed threosyl nucleic acid (TNA) polymerase. Here we report a detailed kinetic comparison of Thermi...

Phosphorus-modified prodrugs of dideoxynucleoside triphosphates (ddNTPs) have shown promise as pronucleotide strategies for improving antiviral activity compared to their parent dideoxynucleosides. Borane modified NTPs offer a promising choice as nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). However, the availability of α-P-borano-γ-P-substituted NTP analogs remains limited du...
متن کاملConvenient synthesis of nucleoside 5'-triphosphates for RNA transcription.
By generating a selective phosphitylating reagent in situ, nucleoside 5'-triphosphates can be conveniently synthesized in one pot. This novel strategy without nucleoside protection has been developed to largely simplify synthesis of the nucleoside triphosphates. This demonstrated principle can be applied to the 5'-triphosphate synthesis of both native and modified nucleosides.

Nucleoside diphosphokinase from Salmonella typhimurium has been purified and characterized. In many respects, the enzyme is similar to those from higher organisms in that it has a broad speciCcity for both phosphate donor and recipient and that it functions via a ping-pong mechanism. The enzyme activity of cells is very high at all growth rates but decreases as growth rate increases. Evidence i...
