Synthetic receptors for CG base pairs.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hydrogen-bond-mediated complexation of a CG base pair by a hexylureido phthalimide and a hexylureido isoindolin-1-one was studied by (1)H NMR spectroscopy in an organic solvent. Chemical shift data indicate that both receptors effectively bind the CG base pair from the major groove side.

Four base recognition by triplex-forming oligonucleotides at physiological pH
We have achieved recognition of all 4 bp by triple helix formation at physiological pH, using triplex-forming oligonucleotides that contain four different synthetic nucleotides. BAU [2'-aminoethoxy-5-(3-aminoprop-1-ynyl)uridine] recognizes AT base pairs with high affinity, (Me)P (3-methyl-2 aminopyridine) binds to GC at higher pHs than cytosine, while (A)PP (6-(3-aminopropyl)-7-methyl-3H-pyrrol...
متن کاملMolecular electrostatic potentials of DNA base-base pairing and mispairing.
An understanding of why adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T) and cytosine (C) with guanine (G) in DNA is very useful in the design of sensors and other related devices. We report the use of dissociation energies, geometries and molecular electrostatic potentials (MEPs) to justify the canonical (AT and CG) Watson-Crick pairs. We also analyze all mismatches in both configurations-cis and trans-with...
متن کاملSpecific recognition of CG base pairs by 2-deoxynebularine within the purine.purine.pyrimidine triple-helix motif.
The sequence-specific recognition of double-helical DNA by oligodeoxyribonucleotide-directed triple-helix formation is limited mostly to purine tracts. Within the geometric constraints of the phosphate-deoxyribose position of a purine-purine-pyrimidine triple-helical structure, model building studies suggested that the deoxyribonucleoside 2'-deoxynebularine (dN) might form one specific hydrogen...
متن کاملAspartic acid 564 in the third cytoplasmic loop of the luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotropin receptor is crucial for phosphorylation-independent interaction with arrestin2.
Arrestin2 binding to the active but unphosphorylated luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotropin receptor (LH/CG R) in ovarian follicles is triggered by activation of ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6) and leads to uncoupling of this receptor from cAMP signaling. We sought to determine how arrestin2 binds to LH/CG R, if binding is of high affinity, and if the receptor also binds arrestin3. Desensitiza...
متن کاملSolution structure of RNA duplexes containing alternating CG base pairs: NMR study of r(CGCGCG)2 and 2'-O-Me(CGCGCG)2 under low salt conditions.
Structures of r(CGCGCG)2 and 2'-O-Me(CGCGCG)2 have been determined by NMR spectroscopy under low salt conditions. All protons and phosphorus nuclei resonances have been assigned. Signals of H5'/5" have been assigned stereospecifically. All 3JH,H and 3JP,H coupling constants have been measured. The structures were determined and refined using an iterative relaxation matrix procedure (IRMA) and t...
