A novel biotinylated adenylate analogue derived from pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine for labeling DNA probes.

A novel dATP analogue, 3-[5-[(N-biotinyl-6- amiocaproyl)amino]pentyl]-1-(2-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl )-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-amine 5'-triphosphate (9, bio-13-dAPPTP), which is modified at the 3-position with a flexible linker arm bearing a terminal biotin moiety, has been synthesized. This nucleotide is readily incorporated into DNA probes by nick translation. These probes hybridize to complementary targets as well as probes labeled with bio-dUTP, as judged by slot blot. When incorporated into oligonucleotides, they do not cause the loss of hybridization efficiency that an N-6-substituted adenine nucleotide does when incorporated into the same sites in the oligonucleotide.

An improved CPG support for the synthesis of 3'-amine-tailed oligonucleotides.

A new controlled-pore glass (CPG) support is described that allows for the direct synthesis of oligonucleotides bearing a 3'-aminohexyl tail. This solid support (AH-CPG) exhibits superior performance as compared to a commercially available 3'-amine CPG. The AH-CPG is prepared from 6-aminohexan-1-ol with a unique protecting group for the amine that also functions as the site of attachment to the CPG. A 3'-amine-tailed oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) was prepared from this support using standard phosphoramidite coupling and deprotection conditions. The 3'-amine-tailed ODN was subsequently modified with an acridinylpropionic acid tetrafluorophenyl ester. Facile synthesis of the AH-CPG and the stability of the deprotected product makes this functionalized solid support especially useful for preparation of oligonucleotides bearing 3'-amine tails and other modifications.
