1′, 5′ -Anhydrohexitol Oligonucleotides: Synthesis, Base Pairing and Recognition by Regular Oligodeoxyribonucleotides and Oligoribonucleotides
摘要:
AbstractOligonucleotides constructed of 1′, 5′‐anhydrohexitol nucleoside building blocks (hexitol nucleic acids, HNA) are completely stable towards 3′‐exonuclease and form very stable self‐complementary duplexes as well as sequence‐selective stable duplexes with the natural DNA and RNA. Triple‐helix formation has also been observed. These hybridisation characteristics are highly dependent on the base sequence and the experimental conditions. When using a phosphate buffer containing 0.1M NaCl, a homopurine HNA dodecamer gives a δTm of +3.0 °C/ base pair with RNA as complement. These oligomers may therefore be of considerable interest as antisense constructs.

The present invention relates to nucleoside compositions comprising novel nucleobases and oligomeric compounds comprising at least one such nucleoside. These oligomeric compounds typically have enhanced binding affinity properties compared to oligomeric compounds without the modification. The oligomeric compounds are useful, for example, for investigative and therapeutic purposes.
