Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, specifically, to the field of nucleic acid synthesis technology, and more specifically, to an N... 6 Azide-modified nucleotide analogs (N 6 -(6-azidohexyl)-adenosine-5'-triphosphate or N 6 -(6-azidohexyl)-2'-deoxyadenosine-5'-triphosphate) and its synthesis methods and applications. Background Technology
[0002] Nucleic acids (RNA / DNA), as the core genetic material of life activities, are crucial for understanding gene expression regulation mechanisms, viral infection pathways, cell proliferation and differentiation patterns, and the screening of disease diagnostic biomarkers. Studies have shown that there is a close synergistic effect between the epigenetic regulation of DNA and RNA; DNA determines the range of gene activation, while RNA dynamically adjusts expression levels. Simultaneous monitoring of both is essential for accurately understanding life processes and disease mechanisms. With the rapid development of space omics, single-cell multi-omics, and in vivo imaging technologies, there is a comprehensive demand for tool molecules that can simultaneously label RNA and DNA, requiring "dual targeting, high specificity, excellent compatibility, and high sensitivity." Developing novel labeled probes that can cover all nucleic acid types and standardized synthesis techniques has become a core research direction in molecular biology and clinical testing.
[0003] Traditional nucleic acid labeling methods are mainly divided into two categories: radioactive labeling and non-radioactive labeling. While radioactive labeling technology boasts high sensitivity, it suffers from inherent drawbacks such as radiation hazards, short half-life, complex procedures, and inability to be used for real-time monitoring of live cells, significantly limiting its application in in vivo research and clinical settings. Non-radioactive labeling technologies, with their advantages in safety and stability, are gradually becoming mainstream. Among these, metabolic labeling methods based on nucleotide analogs are widely used in research such as nucleic acid synthesis activity tracking, cell cycle analysis, and transcriptome dynamic monitoring because they can directly embed into nascent nucleic acid chains and reflect the dynamic process of nucleic acid synthesis.
[0004] In non-radioactive metabolic labeling techniques, bioorthogonal reaction-mediated labeling strategies exhibit unique advantages, especially the azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (click chemistry). Due to its mild reaction conditions, high specificity, low cytotoxicity, and lack of interference with in vivo physiological processes, it has become one of the core technologies in nucleic acid labeling. The core of this strategy is to incorporate nucleotide analogs containing azide (-N3) or alkyne groups into the nucleic acid chain through the cell's own metabolic mechanisms, and then use click chemistry to couple them with reporter molecules such as fluorescent dyes and biotin, achieving visualized tracking and quantitative analysis of nucleic acids. Currently, various azide-modified nucleotide analogs have been developed, but most are designed for single nucleic acid types. For example, azide-modified UTP analogs (AMUTP) are only suitable for imaging newly formed RNA, and γ-azidohexyl-modified ATP is mostly used for phosphorylation reaction monitoring. There is a lack of probe combinations that can simultaneously label RNA and DNA. Furthermore, existing compounds still have room for optimization in terms of modification site rationality, biocompatibility, and targeting specificity, making it difficult to meet the needs of nucleic acid co-detection and simultaneous multi-omics analysis.
[0005] Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and deoxyadenosine triphosphate (dATP) are core raw materials for RNA and DNA synthesis, respectively. The targeted modification and synthesis of their structural analogs is key to achieving dual-target labeling of nucleic acids. 6 -(6-azidohexyl)-adenosine-5'-triphosphate (N 6 -azidohexyl-ATP) and N 6 -(6-azidohexyl)-2'-deoxyadenosine-5'-triphosphate (N 6 -Azide-hexyl-dATP) is a pair of structurally homologous and target-complementary azide-modified nucleotide analogs, both of which are generated by the N-terminus of adenosine (or deoxyadenosine). 6 The introduction of a 6-azidohexyl side chain enables synergistic function and targeted differentiation. Both retain the specific binding ability to their corresponding polymerases (RNA polymerase, DNA polymerase) and the metabolic activity of embedding into nascent nucleic acid chains, while leveraging the bioorthogonal reaction properties of the azido group for precise labeling. Simultaneously, the long-chain alkyl structure reduces the perturbation of nucleotide conformation by the modifying group, improving intracellular incorporation efficiency. Compared to traditional azido-modified nucleotides, N... 6 γ-position modification can effectively avoid the interference of γ-position modification on nucleotide chain elongation function, and the problems of decreased stability and easy degradation by nucleases caused by 8-position modification. Among them, N 6 -Azide-hexyl-ATP is suitable for tracking RNA transcriptional activity and dynamic monitoring of the transcriptome. N 6 -Azide-hexyl-dATP is adapted for DNA replication activity analysis and dynamic genome monitoring. The combination of the two can achieve synchronous RNA / DNA labeling, providing a core tool for nucleic acid synergistic regulation research and clinical DNA+RNA co-detection.
[0006] Although azide-modified nucleotides have broad application prospects, there are still challenges in targeting N... 6 Existing synthetic techniques for long-chain azido-modified ATP and dATP still face many common challenges and specific difficulties: First, the selectivity of modification sites is difficult to control, and multiple modification byproducts are easily generated, resulting in low product purity and failing to meet the requirements of high-sensitivity detection. Second, the introduction of azido groups requires harsh reaction conditions, and some reaction reagents have poor compatibility with functional groups, which affects product yield and may also destroy the active structure of nucleotides. Third, long-chain alkyl modification is prone to problems such as incomplete substitution and side chain isomerization, and subsequent purification processes are complex, making it difficult to achieve large-scale preparation. Fourth, existing technologies are mostly developed for single compounds and lack standardized synthetic procedures that can be adapted to two types of homologous compounds simultaneously, which cannot guarantee the structural consistency and performance synergy of the two, thus restricting their application in nucleic acid co-detection scenarios.
[0007] Currently, a small number of documents report N. 6 -(6-azidohexyl)-adenosine-5'-triphosphate (N 6 -azidohexyl-ATP) and N 6 -(6-azidohexyl)-2'-deoxyadenosine-5'-triphosphate (N 6 The intermediate N of -azidohexyl-dATP) 6 The synthesis of -(6-azidohexyl)-adenosine mainly focuses on two synthetic pathways: 1. 6-Chloropurinic nucleoside (500 mg) and 6-azahexane-1-amine (1.26 g) were stirred at 90°C for 3 hours in ethanol (9 ml) as solvent. After cooling, the mixture was crystallized at -18°C. The crystals were filtered, and the precipitate was washed with cold ethanol to obtain intermediate N. 6 -(6-Azide-hexyl)-adenosine (RS2). However, this method has a low conversion rate, and the product is obtained through crystallization, and the mother liquor may also contain the product; therefore, the final yield is only 75%. The reaction formula is as follows: 2. Using TBS-protected 6-chloropurine nucleoside and 6-hydroxyhexane-1-amine as raw materials, the mixture was refluxed and stirred in ethanol for 3.5 hours (yield 88%–97%), then reacted sequentially with sulfonyl chloride (yield 93–94%) and sodium azide (yield 33–94%), followed by removal of the TBS protecting group (yield 88–93%) to obtain intermediate N. 6 -(6-azidohexyl)-adenosine (i.e., RS2). Although this method greatly improves the yield, the steps are very cumbersome.
[0008] The reaction formula is as follows: Additionally, from intermediate N 6-(6-Azide-hexyl)-adenosine synthesis N 6 -(6-azidohexyl)-ATP has not yet been reported.
[0009] With the rapid development of combined spatial genomics and transcriptomics analysis, single-cell nucleic acid co-detection, and in vivo nucleic acid dynamic imaging technologies, there is a growing demand for high-purity, high-activity, dual-target synergistic N... 6 -Azide-hexyl-ATP and N 6 The demand for azidohexyl-dATP combinatorial probes is increasingly urgent. Developing an efficient, mild, and highly selective synthetic method to achieve the targeted preparation, large-scale purification, and synergistic performance regulation of these two types of compounds is of great significance.

[0016] The inventors of this invention have discovered that adding a certain amount of alkali to a reaction system using 6-chloropurine nucleoside / 6-chloropurine 2'-deoxynucleoside and 6-azidohexane-1-amine as reactants is more conducive to the reaction of product N. 6 -(6-azidohexyl)-adenosine / N 6 The conversion of 6-azidohexyl)-2'-deoxyadenosine results in a high conversion rate, thus requiring only a small amount of silica gel for purification. The purification process minimizes losses, ultimately significantly increasing the yield of N-methyl-2-ethylhexylene (N). 6 -(6-azidohexyl)-adenosine / N 6 Yield of -(6-azidohexyl)-2'-deoxyadenosine.
