Advanced method for oligonucleotide deprotection.

A new procedure for rapid deprotection of synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides has been developed. While all known deprotection methods require purification to remove the residual protective groups (e.g. benzamide) and insoluble silicates, the new procedure based on the use of an ammonia-free reagent mixture allows one to avoid the additional purification steps. The method can be applied to deprotect the oligodeoxynucleotides synthesized by using the standard protected nucleoside phosphoramidites dG(iBu), dC(Bz)and dA(Bz).

Fabrication of microarray of gel-immobilized compounds on a chip by copolymerization.

The manufacturing of microchips containing oligonucleotides and proteins immobilized within gel pads, ranging in size from 10 x 10 to 100 x 100 microns, is described. The microchips are produced by photo- or persulfate-induced copolymerization of unsaturated derivatives of biomolecules with acrylamide-bisacrylamide mixture. Oligonucleotides containing 5'-allyl or 5'-butenediol units were synthesized using standard phosphoramidite chemistry. Acryloyl residues were attached to a protein by a two-step procedure. Photopolymerization was induced by illumination of the monomer solution containing initiator with UV light through the mask. The mask was applied directly over the monomer solution or projected through a microscope. Alternatively, copolymerization was carried out in drops of aqueous solution of monomers containing ammonium persulfate. Drops with different allyl-oligonucleotides were distributed on a glass slide, and the polymerization was induced by diffusion of N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine (TEMED) from a hexane solution that covered the aqueous drops.

[4'-Branched nucleosides. II. Synthesis of 4'-hydroxymethyl derivatives of 2',3'-anhydronucleosides of the ribo- and lyxo-series].

A general synthetic method for 4'-hydroxymethyl-2',3'-anhydronucleosides from 1,2-O-isopropylidene-4-hydroxymethyl-alpha-D-xylofuranose is described. The condensation of 1,2-di-O-acetyl-3-O-methanesulphonyl-4-benzoyloxymethyl-5-O- benzoyl-D-xylofuranose with trimethylsilyl derivatives of N6-benzoyladenine and N2-palmitoylguanine in the presence of stannic chloride resulted in the corresponding nucleosides. After their treatment with NH4OH-EtOH, corresponding 2',3'-riboanhydronucleosides were isolated. Condensation of 1,2-di-O-acetyl-3-O-benzoyl-4-benzoyloxymethyl-5-O-benzoyl-D-xy lofuranose with trimethylsilyl derivatives of purines followed by selective deacetylation led to the nucleosides with free 2'-OH group. Their 2'-O-mesylation and epoxidering closure resulted in the isolation of 2',3'-anhydrolyxonucleosides with 38-44% yields. All the compounds synthesized did not inhibit HIV-1 reproduction in human H9 and PBL cell cultures nor HSV-2 and HCMV reproduction in vero cells up to 100 microM concentrations.

[4'-Branched nucleosides. I. Synthesis of 3'-deoxy-3'-amino-4'-hydroxymethylnucleosides].

The condensation of 1, 2-di-O-acetyl-3-azido-3-deoxy-4-benzoyloxymethyl-1-5-O-benzoyl-bet a-D-ribofuranose with trimethylsilyl derivatives of N6-benzoyladenine, N4-acetylcytosine and uracil in the presence of stannic chloride led to the corresponding nucleosides. After deprotection with methanolic ammonia the azidonucleosides were reduced with PPh3 into 3'-amino-3'-deoxy-4'-hydroxymethynucleosides.

[Detection of single base polymorphism in p53 gene by ligase detection reaction and rolling circle amplification on microarrays].

We combined three modern technologies of single base polymorphism detection in human genome: ligase detection reaction, rolling circle amplification and IMAGE hydro-gel microarrays. Polymorphism in target DNA was tested by selective ligation on microarray. Product of the ligase reaction was determined in microarray gel pads by rolling circle amplification. Two different methods were compared. In first, selective ligation of short oligonucleotides immobilized on microarray was used with subsequent amplification on preformed circle probe ("common circle"). The circle probe was designed especially for human genome research. In second variant, allele-specific padlock probes that may be circularized by selective ligation were immobilized on microarray. Polymorphism of codon 72 in human p53 gene was used as a biological model. It was shown that LDR/RCA on microarray is a quantitative reaction and gives high discrimination of alleles. Principles and perspectives of selective ligation and rolling circle amplification are being discussed.

[Biochip development for polymorphism analysis in biotransformation system genes].

Large-scale population researches, diagnostics of genetic predisposition to multifactorial diseases, screening of the polymorphic loci associated with individual sensitivity to pharmaceutical preparations, require the development of effective, exact and rapid methods of analysis for detection of many mutations simultaneously. One of the most perspective methods to solve these problems is a method of allele-specific hybridization with biochips. Taking the analysis of mutations in genes CYP1A1, CYP2D6, GSTM1, GSTT1, NAT2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and MTHFR as an example we showed the efficiency of using the approach for identification of individual genetic polymorphism. We believe that the biochips can be also a convenient tool in pharmacogenetics researches.
