CEP
C45H58N7O7P  204515-49-1  Guanine bases in DNA are susceptible to N-alkylation by various carcinogens, leading to miscoding and mutagenicity. Choi and Guengerich have prepared a series of N2-alkyl-2'-deoxyguanosine phosphoramidites where the alkyl group ranges in size from methyl to anthracenylmethyl for studies on the effect of the size of these groups on the catalytic efficiency and fidelity of various DNA polymerases.1 We offer the N2-methyl- (BA 0249), N2-ethyl- (BA 0076), and N2-isobutyl-dG (BA 0250) phosphoramidites1 as well as two additional bulkier choices, the N2-neopentyl version (BA 0200), and the N2-benzyl version (BA 0337) . Researchers may find this "steric tool box" useful for probing the steric requirements at N2 of dG in various applications.

N2-Neopentyl-dG CEP should behave in oligonucleotide synthesis in a manner similar to the other (known) N2-alkyl-dG CEPs, but this has not yet been proven.

BA 0201 5-Methyl-2'-deoxyzebularine CEP C40H49N4O7P  125258-62-0 

5-Methyl-2'-deoxyzebularine or m5K, is an intrinsically fluorescent nucleoside that, upon incorporation into oligonucleotides,1,2 allows the characterization of the assembly of RecA-ssDNA complexes that initiate DNA repair responses.2 Further, deletion of the C4 amino group of dC allows dissection of the roles of various hydrogen bonds, and the incorporation of 2-pyrimidinone residues into DNA allows the formation of abasic sites at selected positions after mild acid hydrolysis.3 See also a ribo version, Zebularine CEP (BA 0254).

BA 0212 3-Deaza-3-methyl-dA CEP C56H59N6O8P  1031750-37-4 

3-Deaza-3-methyl-adenine has been shown to be a stable analog of  N3-methyladenine (3MeA) which is the major cytotoxic lesion formed in DNA by methylating agents. 3-Deaza-3-methyl-dA CEP (BA 0212) can be used to incorporate this important, stable analog into synthetic oligonucleotides.1

3MeA is unstable and is converted to an abasic site which has made rigorous proof of its role in cytotoxicity elusive.The use of 3-deaza-3-methyl-dA in oligonucleotides for replication assays has provided the most direct evidence to date showing that 3MeA is a significant block to two of the main replicases in eukaryotes.1 These studies also showed that the Y-family polymerases are capable of bypassing the modified base in vitro.

BA 0236 2'-Deoxypseudoisocytidine CEP C42H53N6O7P  307314-31-4  The C-nucleoside 2'-deoxypseudoisocytidine is an isostere of dC that offers an additional hydrogen-bond donor at N3. Interest in the incorporation of 2'-deoxypseudoisocytidine and related compounds into oligonucleotides has grown due to their success in improving triplex formation between oligonucleotides and duplex DNA.1-3 The C to GC pyrimidine-purine-pyrimidine binding motif requires acidic conditions in order to protonate N3 of cytosine in the Hoogsteen strand (i.e., C+ to GC). Unfortunately, this interaction is disrupted under the higher pH of physiological conditions. Improvements have been observed using 5-methyl-2'-deoxycytidine in place of dC, although protonation of N3 is still required.4 Kan and co-workers1-3 have examined the use of 2'-deoxypseudoisocytidine and 2'-O-methylpseudoisocytidine as neutral replacements for protonated cytidine. Indeed, oligonucleotides containing these cytidine replacements form improved triplexes under neutral conditions.

We offer 2'-Deoxypseudoisocytidine CEP3,5 for incorporation of 2'-deoxypseudoisocytidine into oligonucleotides, allowing researchers to explore the alternate hydrogen-bonding motif afforded by this interesting dC surrogate. For those interested in nucleosides, we also offer pseudoisocytidine hydrochloride (PYA 11060) and 2'-deoxypseudoisocytidine (PYA 11005).

The ribo version fluoresces at 385 nm (Bergstrom, D. E.; Inoue, H.; Reddy, P. A. J. Org. Chem., 1982, 47, 2174-2178; Bergstrom, D., et. al. Synlett, 1992, 179-188).

When incorporated into oligonucleotides, dF pairs with dG, resulting in a higher melting temperature (Inoue, H.; Imura, A.; Ohtsuka, E. Nucleic Acids Res., 1985, 13, 7119-7128). In triple helices, dF pairs well with dA (Staubli, A. B.; Dervan, P. B. Nucleic Acids Res. 1994, 22, 2637-2642). We offer the phosphoramidite version, which has been used for oligonucleotide synthesis (Durland, R. H.; Rao, T. S.; Jayaraman, K.; Revankar, G. R. Bioconjugate Chem., 1995, 6, 278-282), where it is known as "P", and serves as a fluorescent replacement of T in targeting AT base pairs during triplex formation.

We also offer the corresponding nucleoside (PYA 11100).

BA 0245 2'-O-TBS-Pyrrolo-C CEP C48H64N5O8PSi  None found  Pyrrolo-C (PC) is a fluorescent analog of cytidine.1 It is highly fluorescent, the 2'-deoxy version exhibiting an emission maximum at 473 nm when incorporated into a 19-mer oligodeoxyribonucleotide, where it base-pairs normally with dG. Pyrrolo-C has proven to be useful for monitoring RNA secondary structure formation, where its fluorescence is reversibly quenched upon base-pairing.2 PC has been used to follow the kinetics of formation and dissociation of an RNA/DNA complex and has been used to monitor the thermal denaturation of the central segment of an RNA duplex.2 Most recently, PC has been incorporated into native and minimal hammerhead ribozymes at cleavage site position C17, where it was found to be capable of efficient photocrosslinking to G12, resulting in catalytically active RNA that was useful in structural studies.3

We also offer the 2'-O-Methyl phosphoramidite of Pyrrolo-C (BA 0356) as well as the 2'-deoxyribo version, Pyrrolo-dC CEP (BA 0170). BA 0245 and BA 0170 are also available from Glen Research (Pyrrolo-C CEP as the 2'-O-TOM version), our development partner for these products. Glen Research also offers the triphosphates of Pyrrolo-C and -dC. We offer the two nucleosides (PYA 11090 and PYA 11092) as well as the simple fluorescent pyrrolocytosine heterocycle (i.e., Pyrrolo-C aglycone (HC 9060). Thompson and co-workers have studied the photophysical properties of these fluorescent pyrrolopyrimidines.4
