Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of oligonucleotide synthesis, and in particular to a synthesis method and application of a nucleoside monomer analog and an oligonucleotide. Background Art
[0002] Oligonucleotides are basic tools for regulating gene expression in biomedical and life science research. As gene-targeted therapeutic drugs, they are used to treat genetic diseases, viruses, tumors and other diseases. Oligonucleotide drugs mainly include antisense oligonucleotides, small interfering RNA, micro RNA, nucleic acid aptamers, etc. Natural oligonucleotides are easily degraded in the body and have low drugability. Therefore, drug oligonucleotides usually carry specific modification groups, such as phosphorothioate diester bonds, fluorinated, methyl and locked nucleic acids, to enhance the stability of oligonucleotides in the body, improve specificity, and reduce their toxic side effects.
[0003] The main method for synthesizing oligonucleotides is the phosphoramidite method, but it has disadvantages such as low purity of the initial product, large amount of chemical solvents used, and difficulty in large-scale amplification. Therefore, the emerging enzymatic method of synthesizing oligonucleotides has attracted much attention due to its many advantages such as green synthesis process, high coupling efficiency, and easy amplification.
[0004] Nucleotide analogs carrying reversible blocking groups are key raw materials for enzymatic synthesis of oligonucleotides. Reversible blocking groups are used to achieve specific synthesis of oligonucleotides and prevent the introduction of erroneous sequences. At the same time, the blocking groups can be removed seamlessly after the synthesis is completed to achieve the synthesis of the target oligonucleotide.
[0005] However, the types of reversible blocking groups of oligonucleotides in the prior art are relatively small and their activities are relatively low, resulting in low coupling efficiency with the oligonucleotide chain, thereby hindering the synthesis of the target oligonucleotide.

[0036] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments.
[0037] Terminology explanation:
[0038] Nucleoside: A compound formed by the condensation of a base (purine or pyrimidine base) and a pentose sugar (including but not limited to ribose or deoxyribose). Nucleosides do not contain phosphate.
[0039] Nucleotide: A combination of a base (purine or pyrimidine), a pentose sugar (including but not limited to ribose or deoxyribose) and a phosphate, including nucleoside monophosphate, nucleoside diphosphate and nucleoside triphosphate.
[0040] Nucleoside monomer: refers to a single nucleoside with a length of 1 nt in this application.
[0041] Nucleotide monomer: refers to a single nucleotide with a length of 1 nt in this application.
[0042] As mentioned in the background art, in the prior art, the reversible blocking group at the 3' end of the oligonucleotide has low activity, resulting in low efficiency in connection with the oligonucleotide chain, which hinders the synthesis of the target oligonucleotide. Therefore, in the present application, the inventors attempt to develop a new nucleoside monomer that can connect the 3' end reversible blocking group to the oligonucleotide by enzymatic method, improve the conversion rate of the substrate, and have higher activity compared to the reversible blocking end capping of the prior art, and propose a series of protection schemes of the present application.
[0043] In a first typical embodiment of the present application, a nucleoside monomer analog is provided, and the structural formula of the nucleoside monomer analog is shown in Formula I;
[0044] Formula I;
[0045] Among them, R is a base; R1 includes one or more of methoxy, methoxyethyl, fluorine, hydroxyl or hydrogen; R2 includes one or more of hydroxyl, monophosphate, diphosphate, triphosphate or thio-modified phosphate; R3 includes one or more of methyl, ethyl, propyl or isopropyl.
[0046] Nucleoside monomer analogs include nucleoside monomer analogs and nucleotide monomer analogs; when the group at R2 is monophosphate, diphosphate, triphosphate or thio-modified phosphate, the nucleoside monomer is a nucleotide monomer analog; when the group at R2 is a hydroxyl group, the nucleoside monomer is a nucleoside monomer analog.
[0047] In the prior art system of enzymatically synthesized oligonucleotides, preliminary studies of this application have found that for certain specific reactions, the efficiency of the reaction is associated with the reversible blocking of the 3' end, resulting in poor commonly used blocking activity, low substrate conversion rate, and difficulty in subsequently synthesizing the target oligonucleotide.
[0048] The present application utilizes the nucleoside monomer analogue of the structural formula shown in Formula I to couple with the oligonucleotide chain substrate in the system of enzymatic synthesis of oligonucleotides, so that its 3' end is successfully connected to the reversible closed end, and the conversion rate of the substrate is high. It plays a role in the synthesis of oligonucleotides, prevents the connection of wrong sequences, and can be removed by simple acid hydrolysis later. The oligonucleotide product with the group removed can be used as the oligonucleotide chain substrate for the next round of coupling of nucleoside monomers, realizing the enzymatic specific synthesis of target oligonucleotides of specific sequences.
[0049] That is, the present application has developed a new reversible end-capping different from the prior art. When the reaction has the phenomenon of low substrate conversion rate caused by the above-mentioned association with the 3'-end reversible end-capping, the present application provides a variety of reversible end-capping options, which can overcome this association phenomenon and help synthesize various types of target oligonucleotides. When the R2 group of the above-mentioned nucleoside monomer analog is a triphosphate group, the nucleoside monomer is a nucleotide monomer analog, and its structural formula is shown in Formula III. Under the catalytic action of the polymerase, with a single oligonucleotide chain substrate as a template, the nucleotide monomer shown in Formula III can be directly coupled with the oligonucleotide chain substrate to synthesize an oligonucleotide with a 3'-end reversible blocked end.
