Abstract
The influence of oligodeoxyribonucleotide probes containing 1-(D-beta- 2'-deoxy-treo-pentofuranosyl)thymine or 1-(D-beta-2'-deoxy-2'-fluoro-p entofuranosyl)uracil on the ability of the hybrid duplexes to interact with RNase H from E. coli was studied. A kinetic approach was used to measure of the modification effect. The hybrid duplex, prA18/d(TTflU) 6TT, was shown not to interact with RNase H, whereas prA18/d(xTTT)6 in hibited the RNase H activity (K(i) = 0.67 mkM). The thermostability of the modified duplexes was estimated. The present technique may lead t o the use of some modified oligonucleotides as antisences.
