Stereochemical Evidence for Monomeric Thiometaphosphate as an Intermediate in the Hydrolysis of (Rp) and (Sp)-Deoxyadenosine 5'--β-thiodiphosphate
Harnett, Sara P.,Lowe, Gordon
, p. 1416 - 1418 (1987)
(Rp)-Deoxyadenosine 5'--β-thiodiphosphate is hydrolysed in (18O)water at pH 7.2 (where it is present as its trianion) to AMP and inorganic thiophosphate with complete inversion of configuration at phosphorus, whereas at pH 4.5 (where it is present as its dianion) hydrolysis occurs with 50percent racemisation and 50percent inversion, indicating that 'liberated' metathiophosphate can exist and has a finite lifetime in aqueous solution under these conditions.

TRPM2 (transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily M, member 2) is a nonselective cation channel involved in the response to oxidative stress and in inflammation. Its role in autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases makes it an attractive pharmacological target. Binding of the nucleotide adenosine 5′-diphosphate ribose (ADPR) to the cytosolic NUDT9 homology (NUDT9H) domain activates the channel. A detailed understanding of how ADPR interacts with the TRPM2 ligand binding domain is lacking, hampering the rational design of modulators, but the terminal ribose of ADPR is known to be essential for activation. To study its role in more detail, we designed synthetic routes to novel analogues of ADPR and 2′-deoxy-ADPR that were modified only by removal of a single hydroxyl group from the terminal ribose. The ADPR analogues were obtained by coupling nucleoside phosphorimidazolides to deoxysugar phosphates. The corresponding C2″-based analogues proved to be unstable. The C1″- and C3″-ADPR analogues were evaluated electrophysiologically by patch-clamp in TRPM2-expressing HEK293 cells. In addition, a compound with all hydroxyl groups of the terminal ribose blocked as its 1″-β-O-methyl-2″,3″-O-isopropylidene derivative was evaluated. Removal of either C1″ or C3″ hydroxyl groups from ADPR resulted in loss of agonist activity. Both these modifications and blocking all three hydroxyl groups resulted in TRPM2 antagonists. Our results demonstrate the critical role of these hydroxyl groups in channel activation.

Paragraph 0073, (2019/01/10)
Catalysts act to release formaldehyde cross-linking that occurs in biological samples. Thus, contacting catalysts to formaldehyde fixed samples is a useful way to render biological components of the samples, including nucleic acids or proteins, more accessible to detection and characterization.

The first continuous meso-flow synthesis of natural and non-natural 5′-nucleotides and deoxynucleotides is described, representing a significant advance over the corresponding in-flask method. By means of this meso-flow technique, a synthesis with time consumption and high-energy consumption becomes facile to generate products with great efficiency. An abbreviated duration, satisfactory output, and mild reaction conditions are expected to be realized under the present procedure.

Fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) deoxyribonucleoside kinase (DmdNK; EC: 2.7.1.145) was characterized for its substrate specificity towards natural and non-natural nucleosides, confirming its potential in the enzymatic synthesis of modified nucleotides. DmdNK was adsorbed on a solid ion exchange support (bearing primary amino groups) achieving an expressed activity >98%. Upon cross-linking with aldehyde dextran, expressed activity was 30-40%. Both biocatalysts (adsorbed or cross-linked) were stable at pH 10 and room temperature for 24 h (about 70% of retained activity). The cross-linked DmdNK preparation was used for the preparative synthesis of arabinosyladenine monophosphate (araA-MP) and fludarabine monophosphate (FaraAMP). Upon optimization of the reaction conditions (50 mM ammonium acetate, substrate/ATP ratio= 1:1.25, 2 mM MgCl2, 378C, pH 8) immobilized DmdNK afforded the title nucleotides with high conversion (>90%), whereas with the soluble enzyme lower conversions were achieved (78-87%). Arabinosyladenine monophosphate was isolated in 95% yield and high purity (96.5%).
The reaction of activated RNA species with aqueous fluoride ion: A convenient synthesis of nucleotide 5′-phosphorofluoridates and a note on the mechanism

The chemistry of 5′-phosphorimidazolides of ribonucleosides is extended to include their reaction with alkali metal fluorides in aqueous solution. High yields of 5′-phosphorofluoridates are formed, especially with potassium fluoride, but no detectable oligomerization products were formed. A combination of HPLC, mass spectrometry, synthesis, kinetics, and NMR confirms the identities of the products. Judicious control of pH leads to higher yields in shorter reaction times. This new methodology contrasts favorably with other synthetic routes involving non-aqueous chemistry or aqueous chemistry with a nucleotide triphosphate.

Deoxyribonucleotides are the building blocks of DNA and can be synthesized via de novo and salvage pathways. Deoxyribonucleoside kinases (EC 2.7.1.145) salvage deoxyribonucleosides by transfer of a phosphate group to the 5' of a deoxyribonucleoside. This salvage pathway is well characterized in mammals, but in contrast, little is known about how plants salvage deoxyribonucleosides. We show that during salvage, deoxyribonucleosides can be phosphorylated by extracts of Arabidopsis thaliana into corresponding monophosphate compounds with an unexpected preference for purines over pyrimidines. Deoxyribonucleoside kinase activities were present in all tissues during all growth stages. In the A. thaliana genome, we identified two types of genes that could encode enzymes which are involved in the salvage of deoxyribonucleosides. Thymidine kinase activity was encoded by two thymidine kinase 1 (EC 2.7.1.21)-like genes (AtTK1a and AtTK1b). Deoxyadenosine, deoxyguanosine and deoxycytidine kinase activities were encoded by a single AtdNK gene. T-DNA insertion lines of AtTK1a and AtTK1b mutant genes had normal growth, although AtTK1a AtTK1b double mutants died at an early stage, which indicates that AtTK1a and AtTK1b catalyze redundant reactions. The results obtained in the present study suggest a crucial role for the salvage of thymidine during early plant development. 2012 The Authors Journal compilation
A single nuclease-resistant linkage in DNA as a versatile tool for the characterization of DNA lesions: Application to the guanine oxidative lesion g+34 generated by metalloporphyrin/KHSO5 reagent

The oxidation of an oligonucleotide containing a single nuclease-resistant phosphodiester link, a stereoisomerically pure methylphosphonate, by manganese (Mn-TMPyP) or iron (Fe-TMPyP) porphyrin associated to KHSO5 allowed the isolation and characterization of a guanine lesion corresponding to an increase of mass of 34 amu as compared to guanine ( G+34 ), namely, 5-carboxamido-5-formamido-2-iminohydantoin. Enzymatic digestion of the damaged oligonucleotide afforded, apart from the undamaged nucleotide monomer pool, a unique dinucleotide doubly modified with a methylphosphonate and an oxidized guanine base that is suitable for NMR analysis. The method can be applied to the study of any DNA lesion. More importantly, the method can be extended to the analysis of DNA damage in a sequence context. Any preselected residue in a DNA sequence may be individually analyzed by the easy introduction of a single nuclease-resistant link at the 3′- or 5′-position.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis adenosine-5′-phosphosulfate (APS) reductase is an iron-sulfur protein and a validated target to develop new antitubercular agents, particularly for the treatment of latent infection. To facilitate the development of potent and specific inhibitors of APS reductase, we have probed the molecular determinants that underlie binding and specificity through a series of substrate and product analogues. Our study highlights the importance of specific substitutent groups for substrate binding and provides functional evidence for ligand-specific conformational states. An active site model has been developed for M. tuberculosis APS reductase that is in accord with the results presented here as well as prior structural data reported for Pseudomonas aeruginosa APS reductase and related enzymes. This model illustrates the functional features required for the interaction of APS reductase with a ligand and provides a pharmacological roadmap for the rational design of small molecules as potential inhibitors of APS reductase present in human pathogens, including M. tuberculosis.

Novel compounds consisting of a nucleotide triphosphate labeled with a PEG linker and various terminal groups attached to the γ-phosphate of the nucleotide were constructed for use in efforts to produce a new class of DNA sequencer. The stability of these novel compounds was investigated to determine their utility as sequencing reagents. Hydrolysis rate constants were measured for both the natural nucleoside triphosphate dATP and novel dATP derivatives. The γ-labeled dATP was approximately 20-fold more stable to hydrolysis than dATP.
