Synthesis and oligomerization of Fmoc/Boc-protected PNA monomers of 2,6-diaminopurine, 2-aminopurine and thymine.

چکیده
A Boc-protecting group strategy for Fmoc-based PNA (peptide nucleic acid) oligomerization has been developed for thymine, 2,6-diaminopurine (DAP) and 2-aminopurine (2AP). The monomers may be used interchangeably with standard Fmoc PNA monomers. The DAP monomer was incorporated into a PNA and was found to selectively bind to T (ΔT(m)≥ +6 °C) in a complementary DNA strand. The 2AP monomer showed excellent discrimination of T (ΔT(m)≥ +12 °C) over the other nucleobases. 2AP also acted as a fluorescent probe of the PNA:DNA duplexes and displayed fluorescence quenching dependent on the opposite base.

Convenient and Scalable Synthesis of Fmoc-Protected Peptide Nucleic Acid Backbone
The peptide nucleic acid backbone Fmoc-AEG-OBn has been synthesized via a scalable and cost-effective route. Ethylenediamine is mono-Boc protected, then alkylated with benzyl bromoacetate. The Boc group is removed and replaced with an Fmoc group. The synthesis was performed starting with 50 g of Boc anhydride to give 31 g of product in 32% overall yield. The Fmoc-protected PNA backbone is a key...
متن کاملPNA bearing 5-azidomethyluracil
Fmoc- and Boc-protected modified monomers bearing 5-azidomethyluracil nucleobase were synthesized. Four different solid-phase synthetic strategies were tested in order to evaluate the application of this series of monomers for the solid-phase synthesis of modified PNA. The azide was used as masked amine for the introduction of amide-linked functional groups, allowing the production of a library...

It has been shown (a) that the inhibition of Lactobacillus casei by high concentrations of 2,6-diaminopurine (2,6-DAP) in a folic acid-containing medium is reversible only by adenine, while in a thymine-containing medium adenine is more effective than other purines in restoring growth (l), (b) that 2,6-DAP is extensively utilized as a precursor of both polynucleotide adenine and polynucleotide ...

The synthesis of a diaminopurine PNA monomer, N-[N6-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-2,6-diaminopurine-9-yl] acetyl-N-(2-t-butyloxycarbonylaminoethyl)glycine, and the incorporation of this monomer into PNA oligomers are described. Substitution of adenine by diaminopurine in PNA oligomers increased the T m of duplexes formed with complementary DNA, RNA or PNA by 2.5-6.5 degrees C per diaminopurine. Furthermo...
