4-aminometyl-3-nitrobenzoic acid--a photocleavable linker for oligonucleotides containing combinatorial libraries.

We detail the design, synthesis, and characterization of an o-nitrobenzyl-based photolabile linker containing amine and carboxyl anchor groups. A model nucleoside monomer modified with an imidazole residue and a precursor unit linked to a heterocyclic base through a photolabile tether is constructed Upon UV irradiation (313- 365 nm), the imidazole containing part of this molecule is released.

Molecular design of artificial ribonucleases using electrostatic interaction.

A number of small organic ribonucleases have been synthesized with rigid polycationic structures containing an aromatic framework with two residues of bis-quaternary salts of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) bearing various substituents. The compounds carrying positively charged groups connected via rigid linker are expected to bend the sugar-phosphate backbone and can stimulate the intramolecular phosphoester transfer reaction.

Toward the development of metal-free synthetic nucleases: cleavage of a model substrates by 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane derivatives.

Artificial ribonucleases of A(n)BCL series were synthesized by solid-phase method. They consist of a hydrophobic alkyl radical A (n = 3-12 carbon atoms), an "RNA-binding domain" B (bisquaternary salt of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane), a "catalytic domain" C (histidine residue) and a "linker" L that joins the domains B and C. The effect of the alkyl radical on the catalytic properties of the chemical catalyst was studied using three activated phosphate ester substrates: p-nitrophenyl phosphate, bis-p-nitrophenyl phosphate, and thymidine-3'-p-nitrophenyl phosphate.

Synthesis of monomers bearing at the 2'-position cyanomethoxycarbonyl group for phosphoramidite oligonucleotide synthesis.

A novel series of phosphoroamidites for the synthesis of 2-modified oligonucleotides was designed and synthesized on the base of 2'-amino uridine and 2'-amino arabinoadenosine. The amino groups in these compounds were acidified by bis-cyanomethyl esters of different dicarbonic acids. Generated reactive linker groups containing cyanomethoxycarbonyl groups are stable under conditions of oligonucleotide synthesis but could be easily functionalised in post-synthetic stage by treatment with compounds bearing primary amino groups.
