Popis: | 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (hm5C) is an RNA modification that has attracted significant interest because of the finding that RNA hydroxymethylation can favor mRNA translation. For insight into the mechanistic details of hm5C function to be obtained, the availability of RNAs containing this modification at defined positions that can be used for in vitro studies is highly desirable. In this work, we present an eight-step route to 5-hydroxymethylcytidine (hm5rC) phosphoramidite for solid-phase synthesis of modified RNA oligonucleotides. Furthermore, we examined the effects of hm5rC on RNA duplex stability and its impact on structure formation using the sarcin-ricin loop (SRL) motif. Thermal denaturation experiments revealed that hm5rC increases RNA duplex stability. By contrast, when cytosine within an UNCG tetraloop motif was replaced by hm5rC, the thermodynamic stability of the corresponding hairpin fold was attenuated. Importantly, incorporation of hm5rC into the SRL motif resulted in an RNA crystal structur... |
