O6‐Alkylguanine‐DNA alkyltransferases (AGTs) are responsible for the removal of O6‐alkyl 2′‐deoxyguanosine (dG) and O4‐alkyl thymidine (dT) adducts from the genome. Unlike the E. coli OGT (O6‐alkylguanine‐DNA‐alkyltransferase) protein, which can repair a range of O4‐alkyl dT lesions, human AGT (hAGT) only removes methyl groups poorly. To uncover the influence of the C5 methyl group of dT on AGT repair, oligonucleotides containing O4‐alkyl 2′‐deoxyuridines (dU) were prepared. The ability of E. coli AGTs (Ada‐C and OGT), human AGT, and an OGT/hAGT chimera to remove O4‐methyl and larger adducts (4‐hydroxybutyl and 7‐hydroxyheptyl) from dU were examined and compared to those relating to the corresponding dT species. The absence of the C5 methyl group resulted in an increase in repair observed for the O4‐methyl adducts by hAGT and the chimera. The chimera was proficient at repairing larger adducts at the O4 atom of dU. There was no observed correlation between the binding affinities of the AGT homologues to adduct‐containing oligonucleotides and the amounts of repair measured. 相似文献

Cellular DNA continuously suffers various types of damage, and unrepaired damage increases disease progression risk. 8‐Oxo‐2′‐deoxyguanine (8‐oxo‐dG) is excised by repair enzymes, and their analogues are of interest as inhibitors and as bioprobes for study of these enzymes. We have developed 8‐halogenated‐7‐deaza‐2′‐deoxyguanosine derivatives that resemble 8‐oxo‐dG in that they adopt the syn conformation. In this study, we investigated their effects on Fpg (formamidopyrimidine DNA glycosylase) and hOGG1 (human 8‐oxoguanine DNA N‐glycosylase 1). Relative to 8‐oxo‐dG, Cl‐ and Br‐deaza‐dG were good substrates for Fpg, whereas they were less efficient substrates for hOGG1. Kinetics and binding experiments indicated that, although hOGG1 effectively binds Cl‐ and Br‐deaza‐dG analogues with low Km values, their lower kcat values result in low glycosylase activities. The benefits of the high binding affinities and low reactivities of 8‐oxo‐dG analogues with hOGG1 have been successfully applied to the competitive inhibition of the excision of 8‐oxoguanine from duplex DNA by hOGG1. 相似文献

A series of sugar‐modified derivatives of cytostatic 7‐heteroaryl‐7‐deazaadenosines (2′‐deoxy‐2′‐fluororibo‐ and 2′‐deoxy‐2′,2′‐difluororibonucleosides) bearing an aryl or heteroaryl group at position 7 was prepared and screened for biological activity. The difluororibonucleosides were prepared by non‐ stereoselective glycosidation of 6‐chloro‐7‐deazapurine with benzoyl‐protected 2‐deoxy‐2,2‐difluoro‐D ‐erythro‐pentofuranosyl‐1‐mesylate, followed by amination and aqueous Suzuki cross‐couplings with (het)arylboronic acids. The fluororibo derivatives were prepared by aqueous palladium‐catalyzed cross‐coupling reactions of the corresponding 7‐iodo‐7‐deazaadenine 2′‐deoxy‐2′‐fluororibonucleoside 20 with (het)arylboronic acids. The key intermediate 20 was prepared by a six‐step sequence from the corresponding arabinonucleoside by selective protection of 3′‐ and 5′‐hydroxy groups with acid‐labile groups, followed by stereoselective SN2 fluorination and deprotection. Some of the title nucleosides and 7‐iodo‐7‐deazaadenine intermediates showed micromolar cytostatic or anti‐HCV activity. The most active were 7‐iodo and 7‐ethynyl derivatives. The corresponding 2′‐deoxy‐2′,2′‐difluororibonucleoside 5′‐O‐triphosphates were found to be good substrates for bacterial DNA polymerases, but are inhibitors of human polymerase α. 相似文献

Oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) containing 2‐N‐tert‐butylaminoxyl‐2′‐deoxyadenosine ( A* ) residues were synthesized to allow accurate monitoring of adenine motion by EPR spectroscopy through the agency of direct linkage of the acyclic aminoxyl group to the nucleobase, and EPR studies of the ODNs in single‐ and double‐stranded forms were performed. Upon duplex formation, peak broadening and decreases in peak height were observed in EPR spectra, and the synthesized ODNs were shown to be excellent monitors of hybridization. Comparison of peak height and the h1/h0 signal ratio provided information on the relative mobility of A* in duplexes with different stability. A second set of ODNs each containing two A* residues at different intervals and four dA residues were also synthesized. For these ODNs, correlations were observed between the EPR spectral shapes of the duplexes and the number of dA residues between A* residues, thus demonstrating the potential of A* residues in monitoring of the structures of nucleic acids. 相似文献

(2′S)‐2′‐Deoxy‐2′‐C‐methyluridine and (2′R)‐2′‐deoxy‐2′‐C‐methyluridine were incorporated in the 3′‐overhang region of the sense and antisense strands and in positions 2 and 5 of the seed region of siRNA duplexes directed against Renilla luciferase, whereas (2′S)‐2′‐deoxy‐2′‐C‐methylcytidine was incorporated in the 6‐position of the seed region of the same constructions. A dual luciferase reporter assay in transfected HeLa cells was used as a model system to measure the IC50 values of 24 different modified duplexes. The best results were obtained by the substitution of one thymidine unit in the antisense 3′‐overhang region by (2′S)‐ or (2′R)‐2′‐deoxy‐2′‐C‐methyluridine, reducing IC50 to half of the value observed for the natural control. The selectivity of the modified siRNA was measured, it being found that modifications in positions 5 and 6 of the seed region had a positive effect on the ON/OFF activity. 相似文献

An environmentally sensitive fluorescent nucleoside containing a 3‐deazaadenine skeleton has been developed, and its photophysical properties were investigated. Newly developed C3‐naphthylethynylated 3‐deaza‐2′‐deoxyadenosine (3nzA, 1 ) exhibited dual fluorescence emission from an intramolecular charge‐transfer state and a locally excited state, depending upon molecular coplanarity. DNA probes containing 1 clearly discriminated a perfectly matched thymine base on the complementary strand by a distinct change in emission wavelength. 相似文献

Analysis of the recently solved X‐ray crystal structures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae ribonucleotide reductase I (ScRnr1) in complex with effectors and substrates led to the discovery of a conserved water molecule located at the active site that interacted with the 2′‐hydroxy group of the nucleoside ribose. In this study 2′‐(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐2′‐deoxyadenosine 1 and the 5′‐diphosphate derivative 2 were designed and synthesized to see if the conserved water molecule could be displaced by a hydroxymethylene group, to generate novel RNR inhibitors as potential antitumor agents. Herein we report the synthesis of analogues 1 and 2 , and the co‐crystal structure of adenosine diphosphate analogue 2 bound to ScRnr1, which shows the conserved water molecule is displaced as hypothesized. 相似文献

The development of nucleic acid derivatives to generate novel medical treatments has become increasingly popular, but the high vulnerability of oligonucleotides to nucleases limits their practical use. We explored the possibility of increasing the stability against 3′‐exonucleases by replacing the two 3′‐terminal nucleotides by N‐ethyl‐N‐coupled nucleosides. Molecular dynamics simulations of 3′‐N‐ethyl‐N‐modified DNA:Klenow fragment complexes suggested that this kind of alteration has negative effects on the correct positioning of the adjacent scissile phosphodiester bond at the active site of the enzyme, and accordingly was expected to protect the oligonucleotide from degradation. We verified that these modifications conferred complete resistance to 3′‐exonucleases. Furthermore, cellular RNAi experiments with 3′‐N‐ethyl‐N‐modified siRNAs showed that these modifications were compatible with the RNAi machinery. Overall, our experimental and theoretical studies strongly suggest that these modified oligonucleotides could be valuable for therapeutic applications. 相似文献

The synthesis of hitherto unknown pyrrolo[2,1‐f][1,2,4]triazine C‐nucleosides is described. Structural variations (chlorine, bromine, iodine, and cyano groups) were introduced at position 7 of 4‐aza‐7,9‐dideazaadenine. In addition, pyrrolo[2,1‐f][1,2,4]triazine C‐nucleosides bearing a 2′‐deoxy‐, 2′,3′‐dideoxy‐, and 2′,3′‐dehydrodideoxyribose moiety were also prepared. Among these analogues, the pyrrolo[2,1‐f][1,2,4]triazine C‐ribonucleosides with either a hydrogen atom or cyano group at position 7 of the nucleobase displayed potent cytotoxic activity in a panel of various cancer cell lines. 相似文献

Gene expression is extensively regulated by the occurrence and distribution of the epigenetic marker 2′‐deoxy 5‐methylcytosine (5mC) in genomic DNA. Because of its effects on tumorigenesis there is an important link to human health. In addition, detection of 5mC can serve as an outstanding biomarker for diagnostics as well as for disease therapy. Our previous studies have already shown that, by processing O6‐alkylated 2′‐deoxyguanosine triphosphate (dGTP) analogues, DNA polymerases are able to sense the presence of a single 5mC unit in a template. Here we present the synthesis and evaluation of an extended toolbox of 6‐substituted 2‐aminopurine‐2′‐deoxyribonucleoside 5′‐triphosphates modified at position 6 with various functionalities. We found that sensing of 5‐methylation by this class of nucleotides is more general, not being restricted to O6‐alkyl modification of dGTP but also applying to other functionalities. 相似文献

Oligonucleotides containing various adducts, including ethyl, benzyl, 4‐hydroxybutyl and 7‐hydroxyheptyl groups, at the O4 atom of 5‐fluoro‐O4‐alkyl‐2′‐deoxyuridine were prepared by solid‐phase synthesis. UV thermal denaturation studies demonstrated that these modifications destabilised the duplex by approximately 10 °C, relative to the control containing 5‐fluoro‐2′‐deoxyuridine. Circular dichroism spectroscopy revealed that these modified duplexes all adopted a B‐form DNA structure. O6‐Alkylguanine DNA alkyltransferase (AGT) from humans (hAGT) was most efficient at repair of the 5‐fluoro‐O4‐benzyl‐2′‐deoxyuridine adduct, whereas the thymidine analogue was refractory to repair. The Escherichia coli AGT variant (OGT) was also efficient at removing O4‐ethyl and benzyl adducts of 5‐fluoro‐2‐deoxyuridine. Computational assessment of N1‐methyl analogues of the O4‐alkylated nucleobases revealed that the C5‐fluorine modification had an influence on reducing the electron density of the O4?Cα bond, relative to thymine (C5‐methyl) and uracil (C5‐hydrogen). These results reveal the positive influence of the C5‐fluorine atom on the repair of larger O4‐alkyl adducts to expand knowledge of the range of substrates able to be repaired by AGT. 相似文献

C8‐N‐arylamine adducts of 2′‐deoxyguanosine (2′‐dG) play an important role in the induction of the chemical carcinogenesis caused by aromatic amines. C8‐N‐acetyl‐N‐arylamine dG adducts that differ in their substitution pattern in the aniline moiety were converted by cycloSal technology into the corresponding C8‐N‐acetyl‐N‐arylamine‐2′‐deoxyguanosine‐5′‐triphosphates and C8‐NH‐arylamine‐2′‐deoxyguanosine‐5′‐triphosphates. Their conformation preference has been investigated by NOE spectroscopy and DFT calculations. The substrate properties of the C8‐dG adducts were studied in primer‐extension assays by using Klenow fragment exo? of Escherichia coli DNA polymerase I and human DNA polymerase β. It was shown that the incorporation was independent of the substitution pattern in the aryl moiety and the N‐acetyl group. Although the triphosphates were poor substrates for the human polymerases, they were incorporated twice before the termination of the elongation process occurred; this might demonstrate the importance of C8‐N‐arylamine‐2′‐deoxyguanosine‐5′‐triphosphates in chemical carcinogenesis. 相似文献

DNA strand breaks (SBs) are among the most cytotoxic forms of DNA damage, and their residual levels correlate directly with cell death. Hence, the type and amount of SBs is directly related to the efficacy of a given anticancer therapy. In this study, we describe a molecular tool that can differentiate between single (SSBs) and double (DSBs) strand breaks and also assess them quantitatively. Our method involves PCR amplification of a linear DNA fragment labeled with a sensitizing nucleotide, circularization of that fragment, and enzymatic introduction of supercoils to transform the circular relaxed form of the synthesized plasmid into a supercoiled one. After exposure of the molecule to a damaging factor, SSB and DSB levels can be easily assayed with gel electrophoresis. We applied this method to prepare an artificial plasmid labeled with 5‐bromo‐2′‐deoxyuridine and to assay SBs photoinduced in the synthesized plasmid. 相似文献

2′‐Fluoro‐2′‐deoxyguanosine has been reported to have potent anti‐influenza virus activity in vitro and in vivo. Herein we describe the synthesis and biological evaluation of 6‐modified 2′‐fluoro‐2′‐deoxyguanosine analogues and their corresponding phosphoramidate ProTides as potential anti‐influenza virus agents. Whereas the parent nucleosides were devoid of antiviral activity in two different cellular assays, the 5′‐O‐naphthyl(methoxy‐L ‐alaninyl) ProTide derivatives of 6‐O‐methyl‐2′‐fluoro‐2′‐deoxyguanosine, 6‐O‐ethyl‐2′‐fluoro‐2′‐deoxyguanosine, and 2′‐deoxy‐2′‐fluoro‐6‐chloroguanosine, and the 5′‐O‐naphthyl(ethoxy‐L ‐alaninyl) ProTide of 6‐O‐ethyl‐2′‐fluoro‐2′‐deoxyguanosine displayed antiviral EC99 values of ~12 μM . The antiviral results are supported by metabolism studies. Rapid conversion into the L ‐alaninyl metabolite and then 6‐modified 2′‐fluoro‐2′‐deoxyguanosine 5′‐monophosphate was observed in enzymatic assays with yeast carboxypeptidase Y or crude cell lysate. Evidence for efficient removal of the 6‐substituent on the guanine part was provided by enzymatic studies with adenosine deaminase, and by molecular modeling of the nucleoside 5′‐monophosphates in the catalytic site of a model of ADAL1, thus indicating the utility of the double prodrug concept. 相似文献

A study on the influence of the crystal modification (α and β) of isotactic polypropylene (i‐PP) films on the resulting electret properties is presented. Two commercial nucleating agents, sodium 2,2′‐methylene‐bis(4,6‐di‐tert‐butylphenyl)‐phosphate (NA11) and N,N′‐dicyclo‐hexyl‐2,6‐naphthalene‐dicarbox‐amide (NU100), were employed in this investigation. Isothermal charge decay was measured at 90°C. In hot pressed isotropic polypropylene films, no significant differences in the charge storage properties were observed for α‐ and β‐nucleated specimens. In addition, the article presents the influence of the nucleating agents at different concentrations on the PP‐film morphology of biaxially stretched films with respect to electret features. It was possible to prepare elongated cavities with the virtually insoluble NA11 additive during stretching, even at concentrations below 0.3 wt %. These films displayed slightly improved electret properties in comparison to stretched neat PP films due to generated cavities acting as barriers for the drift of charges. Various draw ratios were also studied for i‐PP films with 0.15 wt % NA11. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 99: 650–658, 2006 相似文献

The copper(I)‐mediated azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) of 3′‐propargyl ether and 5′‐azide oligonucleotides is a particularly promising ligation system because it results in triazole linkages that effectively mimic the phosphate–sugar backbone of DNA, leading to unprecedented tolerance of the ligated strands by polymerases. However, for a chemical ligation strategy to be a viable alternative to enzymatic systems, it must be equally as rapid, as discriminating, and as easy to use. We found that the DNA‐templated reaction with these modifications was rapid under aerobic conditions, with nearly quantitative conversion in 5 min, resulting in a kobs value of 1.1 min?1, comparable with that measured in an enzymatic ligation system by using the highest commercially available concentration of T4 DNA ligase. Moreover, the CuAAC reaction also exhibited greater selectivity in discriminating C:A or C:T mismatches from the C:G match than that of T4 DNA ligase at 29 °C; a temperature slightly below the perfect nicked duplex dissociation temperature, but above that of the mismatched duplexes. These results suggest that the CuAAC reaction of 3′‐propargyl ether and 5′‐azide‐terminated oligonucleotides represents a complementary alternative to T4 DNA ligase, with similar reaction rates, ease of setup and even enhanced selectivity for certain mismatches. 相似文献

The fluorescent 8‐aza‐2′‐deoxyisoguanosine ( 4 ) as well as the parent 2′‐deoxyisoguanosine ( 1 ) were used as protonated dCH+ surrogates in the third strand of oligonucleotide triplexes. Stable triplexes were formed by Hoogsteen base pairing. In contrast to dC, triplexes containing nucleoside 1 or 4 in place of dCH+ are already formed under neutral conditions or even at alkaline pH values. Triplex melting can be monitored separately from duplex dissociation in cases in which the third strand contains the fluorescent nucleoside 4 . Third‐strand binding of oligonucleotides with 4 , opposite to dG, was selective as demonstrated by hybridisation experiments studying mismatch discrimination. Third‐strand binding is more efficient when the stability of the DNA duplex is reduced by mismatches, giving third‐strand binding more flexibility. 相似文献
