Synthese und Untersuchungen eines alpha-konfigurierten, oxidativen DNA-Schadens (alpha-cFaPydG) sowie Entwicklung einer PNA-Templat dirigierten Ligationsstrategie
Following oxidative stress often two kinds of DNA-lesions can be found: 8-OxodG and the 2,6-Diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine (FaPydG). Both derive from the DNA-Nucleobase guanine. The FaPydG-lesion can exist both in the beta-configuration and the alpha configuration. To clarify biological questions concerning the basepairing and the encoding features of both forms it was necessary to synthesise of the alpha-anomer of the carbocyclic FaPydG-DNA-lesion. The synthesis of the beta-cFaPydG-lesion was already finished in 2005 in the Carell group. In a sixteen-step synthesis the alpha-lesion could be prepared in the form of its phosphoramidite component. Oligonucleotides could be prepared on solid support using automated DNA-synthesis. Some of the synthesised DNA-Nucleotides contained the inserted FaPydG-lesion. Others showed an oxidation to alpha-c8-OxodG. This reaction is not known for natural lesion. Just a de-hydration to guanosine under harsh conditions is described. The observations can be ex-plained by formulation of a cyclic intermediate, which is possibly oxidized by the oxidation di-lution during the DNA-synthesis. If the sequence-dependent equilibrium between alpha cFaPydG and alpha c8-Hydro,hydroxydG is at the side of the closed form, an oxidation from this interme-diate directly to 8-OxodG is imaginable. This assumption is proven by the fact that at the same time synthesised and completely identically treated DNA-strands of different sequence didn´t show oxidation products. This could be ascertained by high resolution ESI-FTICR-mesurement.

Abstract

Following oxidative stress often two kinds of DNA-lesions can be found: 8-OxodG and the 2,6-Diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine (FaPydG). Both derive from the DNA-Nucleobase guanine. The FaPydG-lesion can exist both in the beta-configuration and the alpha configuration. To clarify biological questions concerning the basepairing and the encoding features of both forms it was necessary to synthesise of the alpha-anomer of the carbocyclic FaPydG-DNA-lesion. The synthesis of the beta-cFaPydG-lesion was already finished in 2005 in the Carell group. In a sixteen-step synthesis the alpha-lesion could be prepared in the form of its phosphoramidite component. Oligonucleotides could be prepared on solid support using automated DNA-synthesis. Some of the synthesised DNA-Nucleotides contained the inserted FaPydG-lesion. Others showed an oxidation to alpha-c8-OxodG. This reaction is not known for natural lesion. Just a de-hydration to guanosine under harsh conditions is described. The observations can be ex-plained by formulation of a cyclic intermediate, which is possibly oxidized by the oxidation di-lution during the DNA-synthesis. If the sequence-dependent equilibrium between alpha cFaPydG and alpha c8-Hydro,hydroxydG is at the side of the closed form, an oxidation from this interme-diate directly to 8-OxodG is imaginable. This assumption is proven by the fact that at the same time synthesised and completely identically treated DNA-strands of different sequence didn´t show oxidation products. This could be ascertained by high resolution ESI-FTICR-mesurement. With this analytical method even smallest variations are detectable in a reliable way, whereas the often used MALDI-TOF-mesurements not always show these variations.
