Abstract
New phosphate-modified nucleic acid derivatives are of great significance in basic research and biomedical applications. We have recently developed a new class of phosphoramide benzoazole oligonucleotides (PABAOs). In this work, th properties of N-benzoxazole oligodeoxyribonucleotides have been thoroughly examined. We have demonstrated the convenient automated solid-phase synthesis of oligomers with a different number of modifications (up to six) at various positions. Optical properties, thermal stability, structure, and dynamics of PABAO/DNA complexes have been investigated. The N-benzoxazole-modified phosphate group is uncharged at neutral pH and has a pKa value of 8.52. Structural analysis performed by the CD spectroscopy and MD simulation indicate B-form of PABAO/DNA duplexes. The thermal stability of PABAO/DNA complexes bearing N-benzoxazole is reduced by 2.5–6.2° per modification compared to native duplexes at standard and near physiological buffer conditions. The performed study underlines a great potential of phosphoramide benzoazole oligonucleotides for basic research, applied sciences, and biotechnology.
期刊介绍:
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications is the premier international journal devoted to the very rapid dissemination of timely and significant experimental results in diverse fields of biological research. The development of the "Breakthroughs and Views" section brings the minireview format to the journal, and issues often contain collections of special interest manuscripts. BBRC is published weekly (52 issues/year).Research Areas now include: Biochemistry; biophysics; cell biology; developmental biology; immunology
; molecular biology; neurobiology; plant biology and proteomics
