6‐Substituted 2‐Aminopurine‐2′‐deoxyribonucleoside 5′‐Triphosphates that Trace Cytosine Methylation
Gene expression is extensively regulated by the occurrence and distribution of the epigenetic marker 2'-deoxy 5-methylcytosine (5mC) in genomic DNA. Because of its effects on tumorigenesis there is an important link to human health. In addition, detection of 5mC can serve as an outstanding biomarker for diagnostics as well as for disease therapy. Our previous studies have already shown that, by...
متن کاملUltrafast transient-absorption and steady-state fluorescence measurements on 2-aminopurine substituted dinucleotides and 2-aminopurine substituted DNA duplexes
Ultrafast transient-absorption and steady-state fluorescence measurements have been performed on dinucleotides comprising the fluorescent adenine analogue 2-aminopurine and guanine, adenine, cytosine, thymine or hypoxanthine, respectively. Two oligodeoxyribonucleotide duplexes that were site-selectively substituted with a single 2-aminopurine moiety were also studied. A strong quenching of the ...
متن کاملQuantum chemical characterization of the cytosine: 2-Aminopurine base pair
The nature of the base pairing between cytosine and 2-aminopurine is investigated by means of quantum mechanical calculations including electron correlation and accounting for the effects of aqueous solvation. At neutral pH, both a neutral wobble base pair and a Watson–Crick-like base pair having a protonated 2-aminopurine are predicted to be close to one another in energy; other previously pro...
متن کاملKinetic measurement of 2-aminopurine cytosine and 2-aminopurine thymine base pairs. as a test of DNA polymerase fidelity
Enzyme kinetic measurements are presented showing that Km rather than maximum velocity (Vm,.) discrimination governs the frequency of forming 2-aminopurinecytosine base mispairs by DNA polymerase a. An in vitro system is used in which incorporation ofdTMP or dCMP occurs opposite a template 2-aminopurine, and values for Km and Vm. are obtained. Results from a previous study in which dTTP and dCT...
متن کاملThe synthesis of 2′-methylseleno adenosine and guanosine 5′-triphosphates
Modified nucleoside triphosphates (NTPs) represent powerful building blocks to generate nucleic acids with novel properties by enzymatic synthesis. We have recently demonstrated the access to 2'-SeCH(3)-uridine and 2'-SeCH(3)-cytidine derivatized RNAs for applications in RNA crystallography, using the corresponding nucleoside triphosphates and distinct mutants of T7 RNA polymerase. In the prese...
