A tolane-modified 5-ethynyluridine as a universal and fluorogenic photochemical DNA crosslinker
(2023)
We report the fluorescent nucleoside ToldU and its application as a photoresponsive crosslinker in three different DNA architectures with enhanced fluorescence emission of the crosslinked products. The fluorogenic ToldU crosslinking reaction enables the assembly of DNA polymers in a hybridization chain reaction for the concentration-dependent detectio of a specific DNA sequence.
We report the synthesis and spectroscopic analysis of RNA containing the barbituric acid merocyanine rBAM2 as a nucleobase surrogate. Incorporation into RNA strands by solid-phase synthesis leads to fluorescence enhancement compared to the free chromophore. In addition, linear absorption studies show the formation of an excitonically coupled H-type dimer in the hybridized duplex. Ultrafast third- and fifth-order transient absorption spectroscopy of this non-fluorescent dimer suggests immediate (sub-200 fs) exciton transfer and annihilation due to the proximity of the rBAM2 units.
In this communication we describe a helically chiral push-pull molecule named 9,10-dimethoxy-[7]helicene diimide, displaying fluorescence (FL) and circularly polarised luminescence (CPL) over nearly the entire visible spectrum dependent on solvent polarity. The synthesised molecule exhibits an unusual solvent polarity dependence of FL quantum yield and nonradiative rate constant, as well as remarkable gabs and glum values along with high configurational stability.
N\(^6\)-methyladenosine (m\(^6\)A) is an important modified nucleoside in cellular RNA associated with multiple cellular processes and is implicated in diseases. The enzymes associated with the dynamic installation and removal of m\(^6\)A are heavily investigated targets for drug research, which requires detailed knowledge of the recognition modes of m\(^6\)A by proteins. Here, we use atomic mutagenesis of m\(^6\)A to systematically investigate the mechanisms of the two human m\(^6\)A demethylase enzymes FTO and ALKBH5 and the binding modes of YTH reader proteins YTHDF2/DC1/DC2. Atomic mutagenesis refers to atom-specific changes that are introduced by chemical synthesis, such as the replacement of nitrogen by carbon atoms. Synthetic RNA oligonucleotides containing site-specifically incorporated 1-deaza-, 3-deaza-, and 7-deaza-m\(^6\)A nucleosides were prepared by solid-phase synthesis and their RNA binding and demethylation by recombinant proteins were evaluated. We found distinct differences in substrate recognition and transformation and revealed structural preferences for the enzymatic activity. The deaza m\(^6\)A analogues introduced in this work will be useful probes for other proteins in m\(^6\)A research.
