چکیده

This article deals with our recent studies on the synthesis of BNAs (Bridged Nucleic Acids), novel nucleic acid analogs bearing a preorganized sugar conformation by a bridged structure. Duplex- and triplex-forming abilities of the BNA modified oligonucleotides are also described.

Synthesis, RNA selective hybridization and high nuclease resistance of an oligonucleotide containing novel bridged nucleic acid with cyclic urea structurew

Since the Human Genome Project was completed, much attention has been given to genome technologies to regulate target gene expression or function. The most simple and promising approach to down-regulate target gene expression in a living cell is antisense strategy, which prevents translation by hybridization of an oligonucleotide with its complementary RNA strand. For practical use in antisense...

Development of bridged nucleic acid analogues for antigene technology.

In the last decade, increased efforts have been directed toward the development of oligonucleotide-based technologies for genome analyses, diagnostics, or therapeutics. Among them, an antigene strategy is one promising technology to regulate gene expression in living cells. Stable triplex formation between the triplex-forming oligonucleotide (TFO) and the target double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) is f...

Synthesis of novel homo-N-nucleoside analogs composed of a homo-1,4-dioxane sugar analog and substituted 1,3,5-triazine base equivalents.

Enantioselective syntheses from dimethyl tartrate of 1,3,5-triazine homo-N-nucleoside analogs, containing a 1,4-dioxane moiety replacing the sugar unit in natural nucleosides, were accomplished. The triazine heterocycle in the nucleoside analogs was further substituted with combinations of NH(2), OH and Cl in the 2,4-triazine positions.

An acyclic 5-nitroindazole nucleoside analogue as ambiguous nucleoside.

Acyclic nucleoside analogues with carboxamido- or nitro-substituted heterocyclic bases have been evaluated for their possible use as universal bases in oligodeoxynucleotides. The acyclic moiety endows the constructs with enough flexibility to allow good base stacking. The 5-nitroindazole analogue afforded the most stable duplexes among the acyclic derivatives with the least spread in Tm versus ...

Study on suitability of KOD DNA polymerase for enzymatic production of artificial nucleic acids using base/sugar modified nucleoside triphosphates.

Recently, KOD and its related DNA polymerases have been used for preparing various modified nucleic acids, including not only base-modified nucleic acids, but also sugar-modified ones, such as bridged/locked nucleic acid (BNA/LNA) which would be promising candidates for nucleic acid drugs. However, thus far, reasons for the effectiveness of KOD DNA polymerase for such purposes have not been cle...
