We synthesized modified 2′-deoxyuridine triphosphates bearing amino acids at the C5 position and investigated their substrate properties for KOD Dash DNA polymerase during polymerase chain reaction (PCR). PCR using C5-modified dUTP having an amino acyl group (arginyl, histidyl, lysyl, phenylalanyl, tryptophanyl, leucyl, prolyl, glutaminyl, seryl, O-benzyl seryl or threonyl group) gave the corresponding full-length PCR products in good yield. Although dUTP analogues bearing aspartyl, glutamyl or cysteinyl were found to be poor substrates for PCR catalyzed by KOD Dash DNA polymerase, optimization of the reaction conditions resulted in substantial generation of full-length product. In the case of reaction using dUTP analogue having a cysteinyl group, addition of a reducing agent improved the reaction yield. Thus, PCRs using KOD Dash DNA polymerase together with amino acyl dUTP provide convenient and efficient preparation of various modified DNA libraries with potential protein-like activities.

2- or 3-Substituted 1-(2,3-dimethoxy-6,7-dihydro-5H-benzocyclobepten-8- ylcarbonyl)-4-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoyl)- and 4-(3,4,5- trimethoxybenzyl)piperazines (2a - s, 3a, b) were prepared and evaluated for antagonistic activities against platelet-activating
