This report describes the synthesis of C-rich sequence, cytosine pentamer, of aep-PNA and its biophysical studies for the formation of hybrid DNA:aep-PNAi-motif structure with DNA cytosine pentamer (dC) under acidic pH conditions. Herein, the CD/UV/NMR/ESI-Mass studies strongly support the formation of stable hybrid DNA i-motif structure with aep-PNA even near acidic conditions. Hence aep-PNA C-rich sequence cytosine could be considered as potential DNA i-motif stabilizing agents in vivo conditions.
本报告描述了富含C序列的aep - PNA胞嘧啶五聚体的合成及其在酸性pH条件下与DNA胞嘧啶五聚体(dC)形成杂交DNA:aep - PNA i - 基序结构的生物物理研究。在此,圆二色光谱/紫外光谱/核磁共振/电喷雾质谱研究有力地支持了即使在接近酸性条件下aep - PNA也能形成稳定的杂交DNA i - 基序结构。因此,富含aep - PNA C序列的胞嘧啶可被视为体内条件下潜在的DNA i - 基序稳定剂。
