A method for the synthesis of oligonucleotide by single addition of 2'-O-(o-nitrobenzyl)nucleoside 5'-diphosphates using polynucleotide phosphorylase. 1979

E Ohtsuka, and S Tanaka, and M Hayashi, and M Ikehara

Two hexanucleotides A-U-G-U-G-A and C-A-A-U-U-G were synthesized from the chemically synthesized trimers C-A-A and A-U-G by addition of 2'-O-(o-nitrobenzyl)nucleoside diphosphates using polynucleotide phosphorylase isolated from either Escherichia coli or Micrococcus luteus. In each reaction the preference of the enzyme was tested. The o-nitrobenzyl group was removed after addition of the mononucleotide and the deblocked product was isolated by chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex in high yields.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008837 Micrococcus A genus of gram-positive, spherical bacteria found in soils and fresh water, and frequently on the skin of man and other animals.
D009578 Nitrobenzenes BENZENE derivatives carrying nitro group substituents.
D009711 Nucleotides The monomeric units from which DNA or RNA polymers are constructed. They consist of a purine or pyrimidine base, a pentose sugar, and a phosphate group. (From King & Stansfield, A Dictionary of Genetics, 4th ed) Nucleotide
D009841 Oligonucleotides Polymers made up of a few (2-20) nucleotides. In molecular genetics, they refer to a short sequence synthesized to match a region where a mutation is known to occur, and then used as a probe (OLIGONUCLEOTIDE PROBES). (Dorland, 28th ed) Oligonucleotide
D009843 Oligoribonucleotides A group of ribonucleotides (up to 12) in which the phosphate residues of each ribonucleotide act as bridges in forming diester linkages between the ribose moieties.
D011117 Polyribonucleotide Nucleotidyltransferase An enzyme of the transferase class that catalyzes the reaction RNA(n+1) and orthophosphate to yield RNA(n) and a nucleoside diphosphate, or the reverse reaction. ADP, IDP, GDP, UDP, and CDP can act as donors in the latter case. (From Dorland, 27th ed) EC 2.7.7.8. Polynucleotide Phosphorylase,Nucleotidyltransferase, Polyribonucleotide,Phosphorylase, Polynucleotide
D003565 Cytidine Diphosphate Cytidine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate). A cytosine nucleotide containing two phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety. Synonyms: CRPP; cytidine pyrophosphate. CDP,Diphosphate, Cytidine
D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
