A Solution Phase Platform to Characterize Chemical Reaction Compatibility with DNA-Encoded Chemical Library Synthesis.

ABSTRACT: DNA-encoded chemical library (DECL) synthesis must occur in aqueous media under conditions that preserve the integrity of the DNA encoding tag. While the identification of "DNA-compatible" reaction conditions is critical for the development of DECL designs that explore previously inaccessible chemical space, reports measuring such compatibility have been largely restricted to methods that do not faithfully capture the impact of reaction conditions on DNA fidelity in solution phase. Here we report a comprehensive methodology that uses soluble DNA substrates that exactly recapitulate DNA's exposure to the chemically reactive species of DECL synthesis. This approach includes the assessment of chemical fidelity (reaction yield and purity), encoding fidelity (ligation efficiency), and readability (DNA compatibility), revealing the fate of the DNA tag during DECL chemistry from a single platform.

Project description:The promise of exploiting combinatorial synthesis for small molecule discovery remains unfulfilled due primarily to the "structure elucidation problem": the back-end mass spectrometric analysis that significantly restricts one-bead-one-compound (OBOC) library complexity. The very molecular features that confer binding potency and specificity, such as stereochemistry, regiochemistry, and scaffold rigidity, are conspicuously absent from most libraries because isomerism introduces mass redundancy and diverse scaffolds yield uninterpretable MS fragmentation. Here we present DNA-encoded solid-phase synthesis (DESPS), comprising parallel compound synthesis in organic solvent and aqueous enzymatic ligation of unprotected encoding dsDNA oligonucleotides. Computational encoding language design yielded 148 thermodynamically optimized sequences with Hamming string distance ? 3 and total read length <100 bases for facile sequencing. Ligation is efficient (70% yield), specific, and directional over 6 encoding positions. A series of isomers served as a testbed for DESPS's utility in split-and-pool diversification. Single-bead quantitative PCR detected 9 × 10(4) molecules/bead and sequencing allowed for elucidation of each compound's synthetic history. We applied DESPS to the combinatorial synthesis of a 75,645-member OBOC library containing scaffold, stereochemical and regiochemical diversity using mixed-scale resin (160-?m quality control beads and 10-?m screening beads). Tandem DNA sequencing/MALDI-TOF MS analysis of 19 quality control beads showed excellent agreement (<1 ppt) between DNA sequence-predicted mass and the observed mass. DESPS synergistically unites the advantages of solid-phase synthesis and DNA encoding, enabling single-bead structural elucidation of complex compounds and synthesis using reactions normally considered incompatible with unprotected DNA. The widespread availability of inexpensive oligonucleotide synthesis, enzymes, DNA sequencing, and PCR make implementation of DESPS straightforward, and may prompt the chemistry community to revisit the synthesis of more complex and diverse libraries.
