  • c2 pyrene functionalized triazole linked DNA universal DNA RNA Hybridization probes
    Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2012
    Co-Authors: Sujay P. Sau, Patrick J. Hrdlicka
    Abstract:

    Development of universal Hybridization probes, that is, oligonucleotides displaying identical affinity toward matched and mismatched DNA/RNA targets, has been a longstanding goal due to potential applications as degenerate PCR primers and microarray probes. The classic approach toward this end has been the use of “universal bases” that either are based on hydrogen-bonding purine derivatives or aromatic base analogues without hydrogen-bonding capabilities. However, development of probes that result in truly universal Hybridization without compromising duplex thermostability has proven challenging. Here we have used the “click reaction” to synthesize four C2′-pyrene-functionalized triazole-linked 2′-deoxyuridine phosphoramidites. We demonstrate that oligodeoxyribonucleotides modified with the corresponding monomers display (a) minimally decreased thermal affinity toward DNA/RNA complements relative to reference strands, (b) highly robust universal Hybridization characteristics (average differences in therma...

  • thermodynamic dependence of DNA DNA and DNA RNA Hybridization reactions on temperature and ionic strength
    Biophysical Chemistry, 2007
    Co-Authors: Brian E. Lang, Frederick P. Schwarz
    Abstract:

    The thermodynamics of 5'-ATGCTGATGC-3' binding to its complementary DNA and RNA strands was determined in sodium phosphate buffer under varying conditions of temperature and salt concentration from isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC). The Gibbs free energy change, DeltaG degrees of the DNA Hybridization reactions increased by about 6 kJ mol(-1) from 20 degrees C to 37 degrees C and exhibited heat capacity changes of -1.42 +/- 0.09 kJ mol(-1) K(-1) for DNA/DNA and -0.87 +/- 0.05 kJ mol(-1) K(-1) for DNA/RNA. Values of DeltaG degrees decreased non-linearly by 3.5 kJ mol(-1) at 25 degrees C and 6.0 kJ mol(-1) at 37 degrees C with increase in the log of the sodium chloride concentration from 0.10 M to 1.0 M. A near-linear relationship was observed, however, between DeltaG degrees and the activity coefficient of the water component of the salt solutions. The thermodynamic parameters of the Hybridization reaction along with the heat capacity changes were combined with thermodynamic contributions from the stacking to unstacking transitions of the single-stranded oligonucleotides from differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements, resulting in good agreement with extrapolation of the free energy changes to 37 degrees C from the melting transition at 56 degrees C.
