Synthesis, incorporation efficiency, and stability of disulfide bridged functional groups at RNA 5′-ends
摘要:
Modified guanosine monophosphates have been employed to introduce various functional groups onto RNA 5'-ends. Applications of modified RNA 5'-ends include the generation of functionalized RNA libraries for in vitro selection of catalytic RNAs, the attachment of photoaffinity-tags for mapping RNA-protein interactions or active sites in catalytic RNAs, or the nonradioactive labeling of RNA molecules with fluorescent groups. While in these and in similar applications a stable linkage is desired, in selection experiments for generating novel catalytic RNAs it is often advantageous that a functional group is introduced reversibly. Here we give a quantitative comparison of the different strategies that can be applied to reversibly attach functional groups via disulfide bonds to RNA 5'-ends. We report the preparation of functional groups with disulfide linkages, their incorporation efficiency into an RNA library, and their stability under various conditions.

Due to its ability to reversibly crosslink proteins, cysteine has a unique role as an amino acid in nature. For controlled, asymmetric formation of disulfides from two thiols, one thiol needs to be activated. While few activating groups for cysteine have been proposed, they are usually not stable against amines making them unsuitable for solid phase peptide synthesis or amine initiated polymerization
