摘要
Selectiveincorporation of conformational constraintsinto thyclotidescan be used to modulate their binding to complementary oligonucleotides,increase polarity, and optimize uptake into HCT116 cells without assistancefrom moieties known to promote cell uptake. The X-ray structure andbiophysical studies of a thyclotide-DNA duplex reveal thatincorporation of tetrahydrofurans into an aegPNAbackbone promotes a helical conformation that enhances binding tocomplementary DNA and RNA. Selective incorporation of tetrahydrofuransinto the aegPNA backbone allows polarity to be increasedincrementally so that uptake into HCT116 cells can be optimized. Theenhanced binding, polarity, and cellular uptake properties of thyclotideswere used to demonstrate effective inhibition of microRNA-21 in HCT116cells.
