Poly(oligonucleotide).

ABSTRACT: Here we report the preparation of poly(oligonucleotide) brush polymers and amphiphilic brush copolymers from nucleic acid monomers via graft-through polymerization. We describe the polymerization of PNA-norbornyl monomers to yield poly-PNA (poly(peptide nucleic acid)) via ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) with the initiator, (IMesH2)(C5H5N)2(Cl)2RuCHPh.1 In addition, we present the preparation of poly-PNA nanoparticles from amphiphilic block copolymers and describe their hybridization to a complementary single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) oligonucleotide.

Optimization of Polyplex Formation between DNA Oligonucleotide and Poly(ʟ-Lysine): Experimental Study and Modeling Approach.

Project description:The polyplexes formed by nucleic acids and polycations have received a great attention owing to their potential application in gene therapy. In our study, we report experimental results and modeling outcomes regarding the optimization of polyplex formation between the double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) and poly(ʟ-Lysine) (PLL). The quantification of the binding efficiency during polyplex formation was performed by processing of the images captured from the gel electrophoresis assays. The design of experiments (DoE) and response surface methodology (RSM) were employed to investigate the coupling effect of key factors (pH and N/P ratio) affecting the binding efficiency. According to the experimental observations and response surface analysis, the N/P ratio showed a major influence on binding efficiency compared to pH. Model-based optimization calculations along with the experimental confirmation runs unveiled the maximal binding efficiency (99.4%) achieved at pH 5.4 and N/P ratio 125. To support the experimental data and reveal insights of molecular mechanism responsible for the polyplex formation between dsDNA and PLL, molecular dynamics simulations were performed at pH 5.4 and 7.4.

Pharmacokinetics on a microscale: visualizing Cy5-labeled oligonucleotide release from poly(n-butylcyanoacrylate) nanocapsules in cells.

Project description:For successful design of a nanoparticulate drug delivery system, the fate of the carrier and cargo need to be followed. In this work, we fluorescently labeled poly(n-butylcyanoacrylate) (PBCA) nanocapsules as a shell and separately an oligonucleotide (20 mer) as a payload. The nanocapsules were formed by interfacial anionic polymerization on aqueous droplets generated by an inverse miniemulsion process. After uptake, the PBCA capsules were shown to be round-shaped, endosomal structures and the payload was successfully released. Cy5-labeled oligonucleotides accumulated at the mitochondrial membrane due to a combination of the high mitochondrial membrane potential and the specific molecular structure of Cy5. The specificity of this accumulation at the mitochondria was shown as the uncoupler dinitrophenol rapidly diminished the accumulation of the Cy5-labeled oligonucleotide. Importantly, a fluorescence resonance energy transfer investigation showed that the dye-labeled cargo (Cy3/Cy5-labeled oligonucleotides) reached its target site without degradation during escape from an endosomal compartment to the cytoplasm. The time course of accumulation of fluorescent signals at the mitochondria was determined by evaluating the colocalization of Cy5-labeled oligonucleotides and mitochondrial markers for up to 48 hours. As oligonucleotides are an ideal model system for small interfering RNA PBCA nanocapsules demonstrate to be a versatile delivery platform for small interfering RNA to treat a variety of diseases.

The oligonucleotide/oligosaccharide-binding fold motif is a poly(ADP-ribose)-binding domain that mediates DNA damage response.

Project description:Oligonucleotide/oligosaccharide-binding (OB) fold is a ssDNA or RNA binding motif in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Unexpectedly, we found that the OB fold of human ssDNA-binding protein 1 (hSSB1) is a poly(ADP ribose) (PAR) binding domain. hSSB1 exhibits high-affinity binding to PAR and recognizes iso-ADP ribose (ADPR), the linkage between two ADPR units. This interaction between PAR and hSSB1 mediates the early recruitment of hSSB1 to the sites of DNA damage. Mutations in the OB fold of hSSB1 that disrupt PAR binding abolish the relocation of hSSB1 to the sites of DNA damage. Moreover, PAR-mediated recruitment of hSSB1 is important for early DNA damage repair. We have screened other OB folds and found that several other OB folds also recognize PAR. Taken together, our study reveals a PAR-binding domain that mediates DNA damage repair.

Long oligonucleotide arrays verse short oligonucleotide arrays-CTX066

Project description:Both in situ synthesized long oligo arrays from Agilent Technologies and short oligo arrays from Affymetrix were used to meausre differential gene expression in RNA samples generated from human neural stem cells treated with vehicle (EtOH, 0.01%) and tert-butylhydroquinone (tBHQ, 20µM) for 24h. For Affymetrix technology, RNAs from vehicle or tBHQ treated groups were analyzed separately. There are three replicates (GSM 11755, 11756, 11780, 11781, 11782, and 11783) which represent the RNA preps harvested at three different time (Jan 16, 2002, Jan 24, 2002, and Feb 20, 2002). For Agilent arrays, amplified cRNAs generated from vehicle or tBHQ treated groups were labeled with cy3 or cy5 and were competitively hybridized with Hu 1A oligo arrays. The same RNA preps used for Affymetrix array analysis were also used for Agilent array analysis. Finally, three replicates (GSM 11803, 11804 and 11809) were generated. Keywords: parallel sample

Long oligonucleotide arrays verse short oligonucleotide arrays -IMR32 cells

Project description:Both in situ synthesized long oligo arrays from Agilent Technologies and short oligo arrays from Affymetrix were used to measure differential gene expression in RNA samples generated from human neuroblastoma cells treated with vehicle (EtOH, 0.01%) and tert-butylhydroquinone (tBHQ, 10µM) for 24h. For Affymetrix technology, RNAs from vehicle or tBHQ treated groups were analyzed separately. There are three replicates (GSM 11865, 11866, 11858, 11857, 11870, and 11871) which represent the RNA preps harvested at three different time (April 17, 2001, March 15, 2001, and Feb 21, 2001). For Agilent arrays, amplified cRNAs generated from vehicle or tBHQ treated groups were labeled with cy3 or cy5 and were competitively hybridized with Hu 1A oligo arrays. The RNA prep used for Agilent array analysis was not the same as the one used for Affymetrix array analysis. Finally, three replicates (GSM 11828, 11831 and 11835) were generated.

Caspase-Activated Oligonucleotide Probe.

Project description:Light-activated ("caged") oligonucleotides provide a strategy for modulating the activity of antisense oligos, siRNA, miRNA, aptamers, DNAzymes, and mRNA-capturing probes with high spatiotemporal resolution. However, the near-UV and visible wavelengths that promote these bond-breaking reactions poorly penetrate living tissue, which limits some biological applications. To address this issue, we describe the first example of a protease-activated oligonucleotide probe, capable of reporting on caspase-3 during cellular apoptosis. The 2'-F RNA-peptide substrate-peptide nucleic acid (PNA) hairpin structure was generated in 30% yield in a single bioconjugation step.

Oligonucleotide-based arrayCGH

Project description:Array-based comparative genomic hybridisation is a high-resolution method for measuring chromosomal copy number changes. Here we present a validated protocol using in-house spotted oligonucleotide libraries for array CGH. This oligo array CGH platform yields reproducible results and is capable of detecting single copy gains, multi-copy amplifications as well as homozygous and heterozygous deletions as small as 100 kb with high resolution. A human oligonucleotide library was printed on amine binding slides. Arrays were hybridised using a hybstation and analysed using BleuFuse feature extraction software, with over 95% of spots passing quality control. The protocol allows as little as 300 ng of input DNA without the need for amplification or target reduction and a 90% reduction of Cot1-DNA without compromising quality. High quality results have also been obtained with DNA from archival tissue. Finally, in addition to human oligo arrays, we have applied the protocol successfully to mouse oligo arrays. We believe that this oligo-based platform using “off-the-shelf” oligo-libraries provides an easy accessible alternative to BAC arrays for CGH, which is cost-effective, available at high resolution and easily implemented for any sequenced organism without compromising the quality of the results.

A microfluidic oligonucleotide synthesizer.

Project description:De novo gene and genome synthesis enables the design of any sequence without the requirement of a pre-existing template as in traditional genetic engineering methods. The ability to mass produce synthetic genes holds great potential for biological research, but widespread availability of de novo DNA constructs is currently hampered by their high cost. In this work, we describe a microfluidic platform for parallel solid phase synthesis of oligonucleotides that can greatly reduce the cost of gene synthesis by reducing reagent consumption (by 100-fold) while maintaining a approximately 100 pmol synthesis scale so there is no need for amplification before assembly. Sixteen oligonucleotides were synthesized in parallel on this platform and then successfully used in a ligation-mediated assembly method to generate DNA constructs approximately 200 bp in length.

BOND: Basic OligoNucleotide Design.

Project description:BACKGROUND: DNA microarrays have become ubiquitous in biological and medical research. The most difficult problem that needs to be solved is the design of DNA oligonucleotides that (i) are highly specific, that is, bind only to the intended target, (ii) cover the highest possible number of genes, that is, all genes that allow such unique regions, and (iii) are computed fast. None of the existing programs meet all these criteria. RESULTS: We introduce a new approach with our software program BOND (Basic OligoNucleotide Design). According to Kane's criteria for oligo design, BOND computes highly specific DNA oligonucleotides, for all the genes that admit unique probes, while running orders of magnitude faster than the existing programs. The same approach enables us to introduce also an evaluation procedure that correctly measures the quality of the oligonucleotides. Extensive comparison is performed to prove our claims. BOND is flexible, easy to use, requires no additional software, and is freely available for non-commercial use from http://www.csd.uwo.ca/?ilie/BOND/. CONCLUSIONS: We provide an improved solution to the important problem of oligonucleotide design, including a thorough evaluation of oligo design programs. We hope BOND will become a useful tool for researchers in biological and medical sciences by making the microarray procedures faster and more accurate.
