Methods The synthesis was performed on DNAsynthesizer, and the binding behavior was investigated by thermal denaturation studies. Results Fourkinds of single isonucleoside containing oligonucleotides were synthesized. The results of thermaldenaturation showed that the existence of isonucleoside decreased the stability of duplex, and theeffect was more obvious when the isonucleoside was in the middle of the sequence. No obviousdifference was observed when 6'-OH of isonucleoside was free or was protected by allyl group.Conclusions The existence of isonucleoside in oli-gonucleotide makes chain twist and decreased thestability of duplex.展开更多

文摘Novel bicyclic isonucleosides, 2′-deoxy-2′ -nucleobase-5′-deoxy-1′ , 4′ : 3′ , 6′ -dianhydro- D-mannitol 10a-10c, were synthesized from D-glucose. The computer-assisted molecular simu- lation indicated that the sugar conformations of compounds 10a-10c were restricted to N-con- formation.
