4-, 5- and 6-Nitroindole have been investigated and compared with 3-nitropyrrole as universal bases in oligodeoxynucleotides. Of these the 5-nitroindole derivative was found to be superior giving higher duplex stability, and behaving indiscriminately towards each of the four natural bases in duplex melting experiments. 3-Nitropyrrole, whilst not discriminating between the natural bases, was found to lead to considerable destabilisation of the duplexes, particularly when multiple substitutions were made, in contrast to the 5-nitroindole nucleoside.
已对4-、5-和6-硝基吲哚进行了研究,并将它们与3-硝基吡咯作为寡脱氧核苷酸中的通用碱基进行了比较。其中,发现5-硝基吲哚衍生物更具优势,能提供更高的双链稳定性,并且在双链解链实验中对四种天然碱基中的每一种表现无差别。3-硝基吡咯虽然对天然碱基没有区分,但与5-硝基吲哚核苷相比,发现它会导致双链体显著不稳定,尤其是在进行多次取代时。
