2'-deoxy-5-methylisocytidine is widely used in assays to personalize the care of patients infected with HIV, hepatitis C, and other infectious agents. However, oligonucleotides that incorporate 2'-deoxy-5-methylisocytidine are expensive, because of its intrinsic chemical instability. We report here a C-glycoside analog that is more stable and, in oligonucleotides, pairs with 2'-deoxyisoguanosine, contributing to duplex stability about as much as a standard 2'-deoxycytidine and 2'-deoxyguanosine pair.
2'-脱氧-5-甲基异胞苷广泛应用于个性化护理感染艾滋病毒、丙型肝炎及其他感染因子患者的检测中。然而,由于其固有的化学不稳定性,掺入2'-脱氧-5-甲基异胞苷的寡核苷酸价格昂贵。我们在此报告一种C-糖苷类似物,它更稳定,并且在寡核苷酸中与2'-脱氧异鸟苷配对,对双链稳定性的贡献与标准的2'-脱氧胞苷和2'-脱氧鸟苷对大致相同。
