摘要
A reliable preparation of S-4-cranoethyl-4-thiouridine and its incorporation into oligoribonucleoitides is reported. Deprotection of oligoribonucleotides with DBU in acetonitrile followed by methanolic ammonia allows the we of standard N-benzoyl and N-isobutyryl protected phosphoramidites. Cleavage of hammerhead ribozymes using GCGCCGAAACACCGUG[U-4S]CUCGAGC as the modified substrate and GGCUCGACUGAUGAGGCGC as the ribozyme resulted in a halving of the cleavage rate when compared to the unmodified substrate, which is consistent with the proposal that the A(9).U-17 base pair plays a key role in the active structure.
