AbstractFluorophore 1,8-naphthilamide was linked to 2-bromoacridine through an ethylenediamine spacer using a succinct synthetic route to give a bromoacridine-linked, bifunctional fluorophore conjugate for the detection of triplex DNA. Acridine is well known to intercalate into duplex DNA whereas introduction of a bulky bromine atom at position C2 redirects specificity for triplex over duplex DNA. In this work, photoelectron transfer assay was used to demonstrate that the synthesised 2-bromoacridine-linked fluorophore conjugate had good selectivity for the representative triplex DNA target sequence d(T*A.T)20 compared with double-stranded d(T.A)20, single-stranded dT20 or d(G/A)19 DNA sequences.

The triplex formation of disulphide containing oligonucleotide with duplex DNA using melting temperature studies is reported. The stability of the triplex formed with disulphide containing oligonucleotide was compared with unmodified oligonucleotide and C-5 propyne deoxyuridine containing oligonucleotide. Melting temperature (Tm) values of the triplexes formed with disulphide containing oligonucleotide were found to be 37°C and 46°C at pH 7 and 6 respectively. The triplexes formed with C-5 propyne deoxyuridine substituted oligonucleotide showed Tmvalues at 27°C and 42°C at pH 7 and 6. The Tmvalues of the triplexes formed with unmodified oligonucleotide were found to be 18°C and 32°C at pH 7 and 6 respectively. This clearly demonstrates that disulphide containing oligonucleotide stabilzes triplex DNA structure better than unmodified oligonucleotide as well as C-5 propyne deoxyuridine containing oligonucleotide when targeted with duplex DNA at both the mentioned pH values.


E. coli RecA protein, the prototype of a class, forms a helical nucleoprotein filament on single-stranded DNA that recognizes homology in duplex DNA, and initiates the exchange of strands in homologous recombination. The discovery of this reaction some years ago posed a quandary on how a third strand recognizes homology in duplex DNA, whose Watson-Crick bonds face inward in a hydrophobic core of stacked bases. Recent studies have shown that RecA protein promotes homologous recognition via nonW atson-Crick bonds in base triplets. The intermediates in the RecA reaction differ distinctly from triplex DNA that forms non-enzymically. The biological significance of the novel set of DNA interactions by which RecA protein effects homologous recognition is indicated by the importance of this protein in recombination, and the widespread distribution of homologous proteins in prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

We herein demonstrated for the first time the direct recognition of duplex DNA bearing the 5-methyl-2′-deoxycytosine and 2′-deoxyguanosine base pair by triplex DNA formation.
