Imidazole-4-Carboxamide and 1,2,4-Triazole-3-Carboxamide Deoxynucleotides as Simplified DNA Building Blocks with Ambiguous Pairing Capacity
摘要:
2'-Deoxynucleosides of imidazole-4 (or 1,2,4-triazole-3)-carboxamide, ethyl imidazole-4 (or 1,2,4 triazole-3)-carboxylate were synthesized by enzymatic glycosylation using N-deoxyribosyltransferase from a lactobacterium. The base:pairing properties of Y and V when placed opposite the natural DNA bases as well as their self were evaluated by thermal denaturation experiments. DNA templates containing imidazole-4-carboxamide base were used in elongation reaction catalysed by Klenow fragment.
