Template-directed reversible photocircularization of DNA via 5-vinyldeoxycytidine

An efficient and reversible template-directed photoligation of oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) using 5-vinyldeoxycytidine ((v)c) was described. When ODN containing (v)C at the 5' end was photoirradiated with ODN containing thymine at the 3' end in the presence of a template ODN, an efficient photoligation was observed. Reversible photopadlocking of a circular DNA by the photocircularization using (v)C was demonstrated. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

A new method for the post-synthetic modification of nucleic acids was developed that involves mixing a phenyl triazolinedione (PTAD) derivative with DNA containing a vinyl nucleobase. The resulting reactions proceeded through step-wise mechanisms, giving either a formal [4+2] cycloaddition product, or, depending on the context of nucleobase, PTAD addition along with solvent trapping to give a secondary alcohol in water. Catalyst-free addition between PTAD and the terminal alkene of 5-vinyl-2′-deoxyuridine (VdU) was exceptionally fast, with a second-order rate constant of 2×103 m?1 s?1. PTAD derivatives selectively reacted with VdU-containing oligonucleotides in a conformation-selective manner, with higher yields observed for G-quadruplex versus duplex DNA. These results demonstrate a new strategy for copper-free bioconjugation of DNA that can potentially be used to probe nucleic acid conformations in cells.

We report the nonenzymatic detection of 5-methylcytosine by using template-directed photoligation through 5-vinyl-2′-deoxyuridine derivatives with high selectivity. In this paper, we propose a new detection method by using hydrophobic interaction. The photoligation yield of the 5-methylcytosine case was approximately 5.6-fold higher than that in the case of cytosine.
