Synthesis and properties of DNA-PNA chimeric oligomers.

Abstract:

:Adenine, thymine and cytosine PNA monomers have been prepared using 3-amino-1,2-propanediol as a starting material. The benzoyl group was used to protect the exocyclic amines of the heterocyclic bases of A and C PNA monomers and the backbone primary amine was protected with the monomethoxytrityl group. The thymine and cytosine PNA monomers were used in conjunction with standard DNA synthesis monomers to produce chimeric PNA DNA (PDC) oligomers. Ultraviolet melting studies confirmed that these oligomers form stable hybrids with complementary DNA strands and that mismatches in the DNA but more so in the PNA sections lead to duplex destabilisation.

  • A new procedure for purifying histone pairs H2A + H2B and H3 + H4 from chromatin using hydroxylapatite.

    abstract::A method to purify histone groups H2A+H2B and H3+H4 using dissociation with NaCl and hydroxylapatite chromatography is presented. The procedure is simple, involves mild solvents, and provides milligram quantities of histones of high purity. The histone pairs prepared by this method can regenerate chromatin-like charac...
