A Template-Mediated Click-Click Reaction: PNA-DNA, PNA-PNA (or Peptide) Ligation, and Single Nucleotide Discrimination.

ABSTRACT: A highly efficient chemical ligation was developed for quantitative conjugation of PNA with DNA (PNA or peptide) using the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction. While PNAs with an alkyne at the C-terminus and an azide at the N-terminus have been used, an efficient click-click reaction occurs. The PNA click ligation is sequence-specific and capable of single nucleotide discrimination.

DNA terminal structure-mediated enzymatic reaction for ultra-sensitive discrimination of single nucleotide variations in circulating cell-free DNA.

Project description:Sensitive detection of the single nucleotide variants in cell-free DNA (cfDNA) may provide great opportunity for minimally invasive diagnosis and prognosis of cancer and other related diseases. Here, we demonstrate a facile new strategy for quantitative measurement of cfDNA mutations at low abundance in the cancer patients' plasma samples. The method takes advantage of a novel property of lambda exonuclease which effectively digests a 5'-fluorophore modified dsDNA with a 2-nt overhang structure and sensitively responds to the presence of mismatched base pairs in the duplex. It achieves a limit of detection as low as 0.02% (percentage of the mutant type) for BRAFV600E mutation, NRASQ61R mutation and three types of EGFR mutations (G719S, T790M and L858R). The method enabled identification of BRAFV600E and EGFRL858R mutations in the plasma of different cancer patients within only 3.5 h. Moreover, the terminal structure-dependent reaction greatly simplifies the probe design and reduces the cost, and the assay only requires a regular real-time PCR machine. This new method may serve as a practical tool for quantitative measurement of low-abundance mutations in clinical samples for providing genetic mutation information with prognostic or therapeutic implications.

Enzyme-mediated single-nucleotide variation detection at room temperature with high discrimination factor.

Project description:We demonstrate a new powerful tool to detect single-nucleotide variation in DNA at room temperature with high selectivity, based on predetermined specific interactions between Lambda exonuclease and a chemically modified DNA substrate structure which comprises two purposefully introduced mismatches and a covalently attached fluorophore. The fluorophore not only acts as a signal reporter in the detection system, but also plays a notable role in the specific molecular recognition between the enzyme and the probe/target hybrid substrate. The method is single-step, rapid, and can be easily adapted to different high-throughput micro-devices without the need for temperature control.

Visible light mediated metal-free thiol-yne click reaction.

Project description:The carbon-sulfur bond formation reaction is of paramount importance for functionalized materials design, as well as for biochemical applications. The use of expensive metal-based catalysts and the consequent contamination with trace metal impurities are challenging drawbacks of the existing methodologies. Here, we describe the first environmentally friendly metal-free photoredox pathway to the thiol-yne click reaction. Using Eosin Y as a cheap and readily available catalyst, C-S coupling products were obtained in high yields (up to 91%) and excellent selectivity (up to 60 : 1). A 3D-printed photoreactor was developed to create arrays of parallel reactions with temperature stabilization to improve the performance of the catalytic system.

Thiocholine-Mediated One-Pot Peptide Ligation and Desulfurization.

Project description:Thiol catalysts are essential in native chemical ligation (NCL) to increase the reaction efficiency. In this paper, we report the use of thiocholine in chemical protein synthesis, including NCL-based peptide ligation and metal-free desulfurization. Evaluation of thiocholine peptide thioester in terms of NCL and hydrolysis kinetics revealed its practical utility, which was comparable to that of other alkyl thioesters. Importantly, thiocholine showed better reactivity as a thiol additive in desulfurization, which is often used in chemical protein synthesis to convert Cys residues to more abundant Ala residues. Finally, we achieved chemical synthesis of two differently methylated histone H3 proteins via one-pot NCL and desulfurization with thiocholine.

A versatile method for the preparation of conjugates of peptides with DNA/PNA/analog by employing chemo-selective click reaction in water.

Project description:The specific 1,3 dipolar Hüisgen cycloaddition reaction known as 'click-reaction' between azide and alkyne groups is employed for the synthesis of peptide-oligonucleotide conjugates. The peptide nucleic acids (PNA)/DNA and peptides may be appended either by azide or alkyne groups. The cycloaddition reaction between the azide and alkyne appended substrates allows the synthesis of the desired conjugates in high purity and yields irrespective of the sequence and functional groups on either of the two substrates. The versatile approach could also be employed to generate the conjugates of peptides with thioacetamido nucleic acid (TANA) analog. The click reaction is catalyzed by Cu (I) in either water or in organic medium. In water, approximately 3-fold excess of the peptide-alkyne/azide drives the reaction to completion in 2 h with no side products.

PNA Clamping in Nucleic Acid Amplification Protocols to Detect Single Nucleotide Mutations Related to Cancer.

Project description:This review describes the application of peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) as clamps that prevent nucleic acid amplification of wild-type DNA so that DNA with mutations may be observed. These methods are useful to detect single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in cases where there is a small amount of mutated DNA relative to the amount of normal (unmutated/wild-type) DNA. Detecting SNPs arising from mutated DNA can be useful to diagnose various genetic diseases, and is especially important in cancer diagnostics for early detection, proper diagnosis, and monitoring of disease progression. Most examples use PNA clamps to inhibit PCR amplification of wild-type DNA to identify the presence of mutated DNA associated with various types of cancer.

Enabling Peptide Ligation at Aromatic Junction Mimics via Native Chemical Ligation and Palladium-Mediated S-Arylation.

Project description:Synthetic strategies to assemble peptide fragments are in high demand to access homogeneous proteins for various applications. Here, we combined native chemical ligation (NCL) and Pd-mediated Cys arylation to enable practical peptide ligation at aromatic junctions. The utility of one-pot NCL and S-arylation at the Phe and Tyr junctions was demonstrated and employed for the rapid chemical synthesis of the DNA-binding domains of the transcription factors Myc and Max. Organometallic palladium reagents coupled with NCL enabled a practical strategy to assemble peptides at aromatic junctions.

Sequential "click" - "photo-click" cross-linker for catalyst-free ligation of azide-tagged substrates.

Project description:Heterobifunctional linker allows for selective catalyst-free ligation of two different azide-tagged substrates via strained-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC). The linker contains an azadibenzocyclooctyne (ADIBO) moiety on one end and a cyclopropenone-masked dibenzocyclooctyne (photo-DIBO) group on the other. The first azide-derivatized substrate reacts only at the ADIBO end of the linker as the photo-DIBO moiety is azide-inert. After the completion of the first SPAAC step, photo-DIBO is activated by brief exposure to 350 nm light from a fluorescent UV lamp. The unmasked DIBO group then reacts with the second azide-tagged substrate. Both click reactions are fast (k = 0.4 and 0.07 M(-1) s(-1), respectively) and produce quantitative yield of ligation in organic solvents or aqueous solutions. The utility of the new cross-linker has been demonstrated by conjugation of azide functionalized bovine serum albumin (azido-BSA) with azido-fluorescein and by the immobilization of the latter protein on azide-derivatized silica beads. The BSA-bead linker was designed to incorporate hydrolytically labile fragment, which permits release of protein under the action of dilute acid. UV activation of the second click reaction permits spatiotemporal control of the ligation process.

Force-induced retro-click reaction of triazoles competes with adjacent single-bond rupture.

Project description:The highly controversial force-induced cycloreversion of 1,2,3-triazole, its well-known retro-click reaction, is shown to be possible only for 1,5-substituted triazoles, but competes with rupture of an adjacent single-bond. We draw this conclusion from both static and dynamic calculations under external mechanical forces applied to unsubstituted and 1,4- and 1,5-substituted triazoles. The JEDI (Judgement of Energy DIstribution) analysis, a quantum chemical tool quantifying the distribution of strain energy in mechanically deformed molecules, is employed to identify the key factors facilitating the force-induced retro-click reaction in these systems. For 1,4-substituted triazoles it is shown to be impossible, but the parallel alignment of the scissile bond in 1,5-substituted triazoles with the acting force makes it generally feasible. However, the weakness of the carbon-nitrogen bond connecting the triazole ring to the linker prevents selective cycloreversion.

Single-nucleotide discrimination in immobilized DNA oligonucleotides with a biological nanopore.

Project description:The sequencing of individual DNA strands with nanopores is under investigation as a rapid, low-cost platform in which bases are identified in order as the DNA strand is transported through a pore under an electrical potential. Although the preparation of solid-state nanopores is improving, biological nanopores, such as alpha-hemolysin (alphaHL), are advantageous because they can be precisely manipulated by genetic modification. Here, we show that the transmembrane beta-barrel of an engineered alphaHL pore contains 3 recognition sites that can be used to identify all 4 DNA bases in an immobilized single-stranded DNA molecule, whether they are located in an otherwise homopolymeric DNA strand or in a heteropolymeric strand. The additional steps required to enable nanopore DNA sequencing are outlined.
