DNA decamers containing 2-aminoadenosine were synthesized.Oligonucleotide duplexes including the 2 NH2A-T base pairs were prepared and their Tm profile examined.Contrary to expectation, elevation of the Tm value by the 2 NH2 group is very small in DNA/RNA duplexes.From the CD spectra measurement, we assume that the distortion of the B-DNA structure caused by scattered DNA/RNA base pairing diminishes the efficient hydrogen bonding and base stacking of the duplexes.It was also found that the DNA duplexes containing 2-aminoadenosine hybrids are considerably resistant to ribonuclease T2 or nuclease P1 digestion. - Keywords: DNA Probe, Hybridization, 2-Aminoadenosine, CD Spectra, DNA/RNA Hybrid Oligomer
